Me at 28

I finished another minibook yesterdag called "me at 28" it's kind of a mixture between Elsie's culture study ánd the usual "me at.."lo's. I am planning to make these every year and see how I evolve or something. Here are a few of my fav's again and the rest is hereat my 2P album


Still enjoying the new cam and figuring out how it all works, and ofcourse which lenses I would love to have!

1 book is finished

2 more to go! I started all these mini albums, about the birds, about me, a flagbook and haven't finished them yet. Sheila send me some bird chipboard and that came in yesterday so this morning I finished my birdbook.
You can see all pictures here
Here are just my favorites

me = happy!

As happy as a little child on it's birthday!!! Why? Well today our new camera was delivered! The Canon EOS 350D and boy do I love him!!! It makes the most pretty pictures without having to do much more that point and shoot! And on top of it all, my sweetheart also bought me a standard ánd a big bag to take it with me! Love you honey!!!!
Here are a few of my first shots (already 108!)

My art??

Still flexible

Finally I got some inspiration and Ideas to use the scrapkit of Scrapfever and first of all I made this lo.
Now I can use all the other stuff to make a little book about me at 28! I like it so much I plan to do it every year! See how I change.
Well I did some shopping today! Finally I did and went down town Amersfoort. That has been a great while! I went to the local craftstore, to the Rituals store and to the bodyshop. Then I visited mom who had a small operation on her hand yesterday and finally got back home again, dead tired but still determined to scrap! So that's what I'll do!

Cupcakes

I started making a recipe album with all my favorite caupcake recipes. I love them soooo much! Here are the first few. The album I made myself with Kitty Lou Paper of Cherry Arte, the first recipes are made with 3bugsinarug the coco, the rest of the inside will be done with Cherry Arte as well.
Now I started my birds-book since I had no more pics of cupcakes! I am using Scenic Route Laurel I got in my April RAk from Sheila of Scrapfever. So I am off scrapping again, btw I am allowed to! I cleaned the house ánd did my exercises for 1,45 hours!

I am also working on a flagbook, the workshop "be creative" of Pien and making some cricut stuff for someone, doing so many things at once and still don't feel like I am getting there!

Not much

Do you know the feeling of being soooo tired and not wanting to get up? When you do you wonder when you can go back to bed again? Well that's me right now! I haven't been feeling well for the last couple of days. Like I have the feeling to come down with the flu but it doesn't hit me! I feel so tired, dizzy, don't want to do anything! Before I keep blabbering on about this, I will just leave you with these 2 lo's. I both made them for the scrapfever contest of April (didn't win!)I first made the violets one but I wasn't sure about it so I made another one. I asked for advise and finally turned in springwalks in the parc.
Goodbye for now!

As promised some pics of our new birds, it was a bit more than just the "mousebirds" or whatever they are called in English.
These are "papagaai amadines" very very tiny!

This is our "goudvink" he is so curious and totally not afraid of people!

These are a couple of "vuurbuikjes" even smaller than the other ones!! So cute they are!

Our waterfall in our birdhouse

And last but not least the mousebirds

birdies!

haaaiiiii
What a great days we have here! Sun is shining like crazy and plants are blooming! I love it! We've got a lot of perfumed roses, they smell so great! Some of them are in bloom already and they smell sweet. You smell them as soon as you walk out the door!

We've got 4 new birdies, here are 2 of them, they are gouldsamadines. They are so pretty and colorful and really curious and not afraid of me so it seems! The other 2 are mozambique's but can't get a great pictures of them.


We now have 10 baby kanaries!!! And there are 2 more females on eggs! They are like rabbits this year!!!! Tonight Igor is getting 2 more birds called " mousebirds" they are so funny!!!

I couldn't resist...

buying there cute little ballerina shoes! My neighbour Marit got them, gold ones and they were soooo cute I had to have them too! So this morning I went and bought black blingbling shoes!


Our birds got babies! We've got 3 babies so far, this is what they look like!


They remind me of the freggles!

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!
