sketches

Good morning to all!!
Wow I have been so inspired and energetic, it is almost tiring! What happened.
Well opportunities are around the corner and both Igor and I need to work hard to
use them and take them, so we are, it is mostly on creative side and I love that! We are making sketches/designs for airbrushassignments. We need to do a kermitfrog on the hood of a car, 2 vespa scooters (and probably a third) a oxygentank for a diver, a helmet and we will be trying out making canvasses. I have some cool ideas for t-shirts too but first things first, the scooters! So not much scrapping is being done here!

I've been tagged by Fauve
I have to tell 7 random/weird things about myself and then tag 7 more people!
So here we go....

1) I love love love scented candles! I burn them a whole lot and fresh laundry and herbs are my favorite or coffee smells good to and cinnamonrolls as well hmmmm I guess a whole lot will do except for the awfully sweet (and nausiating) smell of strawberries.
2) I love aboriginal art! (I sketches a lizard kind of like that way)
3) I am a sucker for guys with long hair! (love you igor!)
4) I love tickles on my back (and massages ofcourse) it makes me feel so relaxed and yummy!
5) I am a jealous person, but in a good way! Yes that also excists! I am jealous of people who can do things that I can't and really want to!
6) I love walking on bear feet! Especially at the lawn or on moss, it's so soft and tickely!!!
7) I can't resist chunky monkey ice cream of ben and jerries (can anyone?)

Here are 7 people I tag: Hilde Lynn Nienke Kruimel Sabine Sheila Sonja

Loving it!!

Hiya,
Well that has been a while! I haven't sit still but I can't show all. I started making my christmasgifts and one of them was a minibook about my mum with her childhood pics, there aren't that many and I found the perfect book, a chipboard minibook from Maya Road and used Cosmo Cricket and some blue paper that I don't know the name of. It turned out great I think! You can find it in my personal album on 2p (link at the right). So I can't show it here as it wouldn't be a gift anymore mum now would it? hehehe

The other thing I have been doing is receipe swap. I've made 2 receipe's and I love them so much I actually don't want to send them off!!! Here they are:



Now I will go and make a LO about spring for the scrapfever monthly contest and then finish my little Rusty Pickle book "the story of us" just 3 more pages. I also started making cards with fun prints from my cricut. I made some sunflowercards and probably will finish them today as well and send them off too! So I am busy heheh! Love to know what you are working on! Inspire me
take care
love angela

2 new lo's and an album

good morning everyone!
What a lovely weather it is!!! This weekend it will be summer here!!!
Here are some pics of an album I made, it's not all ready yet but just to give you an idea.



These lo's were half finished as I didn't have the right paper to finish them so now I did and I finished them. Orange is a color I really never use but I got some great embellishments in my birthdayRAK and got 3 pics with orange in it so I decided to make them this way. I love them. They are warm and sweet and peaceful!
I am off going outside!

Walk in the parc

hiya!
I am having such a great day today! I woke up at 8.30 am totally rested! Got up, took a shower and went to the supermarket on my bike to do a whole lot of groceries. All good and healthy food and fruits yummie! I made myself a smoothie first and then took a walk in the parc behind my house. I took my camera with me and enjoyed the sun. Now it's all clowdy and it looks like it is going to rain!
I have been very busy scrapping loads last weekend! I can't show it just yet, but I will soon! I am making a mini album for my mum so can't show it here!

Deck of me part 2

hi all,
How are you? First of all a very happy Easter! The weather is sooo great! Tomorrow will even be better! Yet I am inside all day. Why? Well got a major scrapmood!! Everything is going very well and it looks great if I may say so myself!
Can't show it yet because it isn't finished yet. I am making a mini book.
So I will leave you with 2 of my "Deck of Me" cards I promised. It's still not done, I have some weeks to catch up, but that will be ready soon I think! Click here to see all of them. If you click on one of them in that album you'll see the backside too! Take a look!

my birthday

hiya!!!
I am in a super duper good mood!! Why? Well I got soooo spoiled for my birthday ;-)))The first picture is of what Igors sister bought me for my birhtday, I love the stuff!!!

On my actual birthday last thursday my sweetheart took me for a walk in Doorn at the castle and it was great! After that we went to Paper and Pictures and I wanted to spend the money I got for my birthday. Instead Igor payed all and also bought me..... a CRICUT!!!!! I am sooooo spoiled! These are pics of the other stuff I got from him! Don't you just love it? I love him to pieces!!!

Hiya,
Finally the Fancy Pants paper came in at Scrapfever so I could finally order. And I ordered big time! The mail even came early yesterday! Normally it is around 5.30 that packages are delivered here but now it was 2.30. I didn't have a lot of time to enjoy it yet but tomorrow I will!!!! (click on it to enlarge)

Hiya!
No I haven't been scrapbooking! I have been creative though! I have been making Deck of Me cards. I just found out about them and "they" are already at card #11 so I have some work to do! I finished 3 already, I will scan them later on. I really hope the new FP paper is at Chantals soon this week! I have a HUGE order because I am almost out of paper. Anyway I had a great time making these cards!

This morning we went to the forest for a long walk and we loved it! It felt like spring, the sun was shining, the air smelling sooooo great! We listened to the birds, the wind in the treetops and the pinecones popping open due to the warmth of the sun, it was so lovely to be in nature again! We decided to go again next week if the weather allows us to! This is one of my favorite photo's I took today. You can click on it to enlarge.



Now I am off painting again! Oh I also made my own stamps with a plastic box, rubberband and mounting spray, I love to create! It only makes me more enthousiastic to make more and more! So off I go as my fingers are itching again!

Spring in the air

Today the weather has been so kind on us here but I didn't really enjoyed it much. I've been in the garden for about 20 minutes tops and then I went inside again. I was in a scrapping mood so had to take advantage of it ofcourse! I had some nice ideas but some I couldn't do due to insufficient scrapping materials. Too bad, another reason to order more new stuff!!!! I am running out of paper (well almost that is) so I made a LO with left overs which I really like how it turned out!
The LO I talked about yesterday, for the contest... well had some left-overs as well so used them to make another page similar to the on in the contest, now you may guess which LO I lifted?! (the person who made the original probably will know!)

finally scrapping again!

After 9 days! Why? Well I was redecorating! I painted the stairs, did the ceiling and walls in our hallway/entrance and also some wood needed a fresh paint so I did that the past 9 days, also had to clean up a lot as there wasn't much time and energy to do that after all the work! Sunday Igors sister+husband came to visit us which was great! She started scrapbooking as well!
Well this is a LO I made today. A picture of Valentinesday this year, so sweet!
The other one I can't show just yet as it is my entry for a competition on scrapfever. We had to scraplift a lo from a DT-member. It was difficult to make a choice but finally I did and the LO was finished before I knew it! I enjoyed making it anyway!

my favorite photo

Elsie asked what everyone's favorite photo was/is. I have a whole lot to be honost! It inspired me to make a mini album about my most valueble and favorites photo's.
This lo I made today. It's one of my favorite photo's that I took of my sweetie (also long hair Elsie!!!) click to enlarge!


The second one I made a few days ago, still using up old paper! It's going very well actually! I am all set (well almost) for the great new lines!
xoxo

I'm in the mood!

Or should I say mode? Scrapping mode, both I guess, anyway I finished 3 lo's again! You might think I do nothing else but scrapping.... well you are wrong! They just come rolling out! Only the pic on the bottom took me a whole afternoon, not the pic ofcourse but the lo. I loved how they turned out! This one I just finished!

This one is just soooo sweet, the big pic, the way he looks at me is sooo adorable but he is way up high on the pole so I couldn't cuddle him!

Last but not least a nice winter-ish lo! Love it, took me a lot of time to get it the way I wanted it and this is the result I am very happy with!

again 2 lo's

hi!
Today was my lazy scrapday! I slept in today until 9.15 am! After that I had breakfast and cleaned the bathroom and mopped the hallways and stairs, quite boring I know! But when that was finished it was ME-time! I made 2 lo's. The first one is not as I wanted it to be.


The second one is great, well, I think so myself! What do you think? A great way to work with lots of photo's or a photoserie!


Well I am totally in scrappingmode so I will go one for a while since my sweetie will not be home within 2 hours!
bye now!

Valentines mailbox

Hiya!
This was my entry for a Valentinescontest of a scrapstore, I really like how it worked out!

I also finished another Heritage page about my grandma, title: Lady in Red. It's quite hard I found to make heritagepages, thank god for 2p and it's examples!


Now this is all done I can concentrate on some new fun pictures! The new contest/challenge is to lift a lo from a DT member. There are so many great lo's so that will be a hard choice! But I am sure I will be able to make it work!! Still waiting for the new Fancy Pants paper to be in shop here!!! Hopefully it won't take all that long now!
Off scrapping now!

Have a great weekend all!
