Vad händer här hos mig?

Vi har flyttat. Flytten gick bra och vi fullkomligt supertrivs i vår nya lägenhet. M älskar att gå ut och in. Mamma inside - Mamma outside nu. Eller så kör han mamma uppstairs mamma downstairs. Vi har två våningar numer. Annars fösöker vi frentiskt få i ordning på allt innan storfrämmande på söndag. Mamma, Pappa, Syster -Yster och lilla kusin R komemr och hälsar på. Ser VERKLIGEN fram emot det.

På jobbet hädner det en hel del Första kvartalet är på väg mot sitt slut så det är frentiskt långa dagar utan lunch och pysslande på kvällarna för att hinna med allt och se mina små i alla fall en timme om dagen :-(

Ok nu kan jag inte hålla mig längre... för mig är det här en stor grej och jag e lite skraj eftersom jag inte är säker på vad jag egentligen pysslar med.... men till den stora nyheten: Jag har blivit uttagen till ett designteam för en utav de större Scrapbook affärerna i Singapore. Alla är uttagna på tre måander sedan kommer dom skifta. Känns superkul och jättenervöst.... Har avslutat två projekt och har två till på gång... så nu känns det riktigt pirrigt tänk om ingen gillar det jag gör? Min stil e inte alls som de andras i teamet den är riktigt annorlunda. Men jag antar att jag blev vald baserat på min stil inte på andras... :-) Så det känns riktigt kul efter den första scrappersblocken hade lagt sig. Och nu är det bara roligt.

Ja det var väl min hemlis..... Känns superkul eftersom många ansökte och att jag blev vald så jag har varitl ite mäkta stolt och lullat omkring på små rosa moln.

Hemlis

Jag vet nått som inte du vet.... Trala la la la la. Jepp det är scraprelaterat och riktigt roligt. Säger till när det är offentligt:-). Vilket det borde vara vilken dag som helst.

Det händer mycket på scrapfronten även om jag inte är här så mycket. Den här månaden blev jag gästdesigner för scrapbutiken. Jättekul!!!! Blev det i och med att jag inte kunde motså Bettans roliga skiss och jag vann. Kan fortfarnade inte förstå att jag vann så det är verkligen kul.

Vi är mitt i en flytt så inte blir det mycket scrappat jag ska egentligen packa ihop mitt scrapprum nu men jag hamnade här istället..... Men det ska bli skönt att flytta för jag kan faktis behålla mitt lilla rum ävne om jag får dela med kontoret.

Jag har scrappat lite kort och lite annat smått och gott också.

Här är lite smakprov.

Ett livstecken

Jag bestämde mig för att vara med i Papirgleders Scraplifcup. Vi får väl se hur länge jag hänger på.





Jepp jag är kvar men det har varit mycket sedan Svärje resan. En del scrapping har blivit gjort inte så mycket som jag önskat men ovan är några alster. Har börjat jobba letat lägenhet samtidigt!

Tonite I have been to the LSS again and managed to Finish!!!! A portfolio and a small accordian inside. Very nice I like it very much. Well while we were there my dear friend "Jedi" showed me her vinatge ink and of course I was take about it. It Smelled!!!!! I know sometimes it feels like I am from the 80's cause I miss certain things and this is one of them.... And her on my table there is now 4!!!! new ink pads. And 3 of them are for Xmas I just love the smell of pine tree and cinnamon!!!! sssssssssssssooooooooooooooooooo niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccccccccceeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

I just love it when the postman rings on our intercom. Usally he has somehting funny like yesterday when this package arrived!!!!

It is the ME book by Lisa Bearnson In favour for the breast cancer foundation. This kit has so far collected $USD 34 000. It is something that is dear to me as we have friends that have been through this lately. Really looking forward to this project and considering taking it with me to Sweden as it is "just" to put it together. I am a bit scared as I will go without scrapping for 3.5 weeks while I am there. And I just do not know if I can do that!!! So this might be a good thing to do. Now I am off to watch some TV with my DB who is complaining about me spending time here again so better get going.

Finally a post

Well it is about time I do make a post. Just got asked to upgrade so I did it seems ok so far but if the message appears funny you know who to blame ;-) I like the Labelling feature will be using that a lot I think as I am considering to start some "more" Topics.
So what has happened since last time. I have finally got my b*t around to take pictures of the final look of share project for the LSS. If you have not guessed before it is a calender. See Below: Other then that I am kind of in the middle of all the Xmas gifts so I can not share them until after xmas...

Scrapping Canvas & Christmas is getting closer.

I have scrapped canvases before but forgot how much fun it is with another dimension. In addition it is a long time I did something in a bigger size then 12*12. My friend is setting up a business around her craft work she makes the most beautiful dolls (Guance Rosa). And she asked me to help her create a poster for her stand at the fairs. Sometimes I really enjoy scrapping something for someone else. First you get instant feedback, second it is not your style that matters it is what they would like to have. I would have gone for more decorations if it was a normal LO given it is a poster we kept it cleaner. This is the end result of our time together last nite:


Shopping Shopping Shopping. It is dangerous to go to the LSS. They always have something new. They ahve brought in the full range of KI memories Holiday collection mmmmmm. Of course I couldn't resist to buy some of them on Monday together with the decos as well.... Now I just can not wait to get started I have a few winter photos from 2004 that needs to be scrapped so maybe this will kick it all off!!!!

Happy Scrappin everyone!

Happy Class

Below you will find two LO's that are a result of the Happy class I went to this week. Nice with a new way of thinking and a bit more freestyle then I normally do. It took some time to figure it out so I completed them at home instead. For some reason I find it more and more difficult to scrap away from my little scrapspace!!! Wonder Why? It might be that I am used to have all my stuff around me, but it also a part of me that find it hard to follow every single step of someone else’s design. Even though I really like what they have done sometimes I find it very tricky. Take the happy class as an example I loved the LO that were pre-created for the class- hence I signed up. But then the end result is always different then the class. I guess that is part of the creative process but most others actually follow exactly. We discussed this at crop nite. They said that sometimes they actually have issues as people really want to follow and with free hand stuff sometimes it is hard. So they have to make templates for everyone to draw and cut after. Amazing! I on the other hand can just not draw and cut out I need to change it.

Anyway I have a very simple "cloud-Like" Lo that is waiting to be finished on my scrap table but before that I have some swapps, cards and touch ups to do. So I will need put it aside. I find that my Creative Mojo has left me! If anyone out there know where it is please return it to me asap as I miss and NEED it. I think it is due to the fact that I have a few projects that "must" be ready and that sort of block the creativity. Know what I mean?

Part from that I went to the monthly crop and we watched a DVD of Distress inking with Tim Holtz . Very interesting indeed and the LO that is on my table will be a result of it soon. I have used some of the techniques he showed. Really cool is all I can say more about it when it is finished.We had a great nite as always a few laughs and good company- great fun!

Well here are the Happy LO's
The One about our little Sunshine (yellow) is a lot brighter and happier and it has lots of 3d effects that is really not shown in the LO so imagine 3d and brighter colors :lol

- Happy Scrapping everyone-

Challenge #3 Use up your stash

Things are moving a long. I just find that I have far to much old scrapbooking stuff I tend to use the "new" cool things more. For a while now I have been very hooked on MME's Bohemia and before Wild asparagus... (-Just love these papers!). It is time for a bit of a change. The challenge would be to use any of my scrapbooking supplies that are older then 1 year. That includes QK dies, any kind of embellishment etc. I have so much stuff that has been lying around forever. I might even be able to use some of my punches...... nah hang on a minute I do not think so!!!! :lol

Happy scrapping everyone.

Mini Virtual Crop

The Mini Virtual crop got me going!

Finally I had some time to do some more scrapping. I have been asked to teach at the LLS for the VIP members in the end of November. Really looking forward to it as it feeles like ages ago.

However I got a bit of a scrappers block..... about the fact that other people will scrap after my designs again and in the same time make something that is doable within one evening.

Any way below you will find the items.

Before that I will show you some of the other things I have been doing lately. I made a cool handbag!!!! :




AND Inspired by the cool villager Krista I made an idea jar. In this jar there are tags where I have written down ideas to include on a page once I get stuck! So once the mojo is gone I just draw a tag out and there is the idea ready to be scrapped!


Well now to the 6*6 Lo's I made this weekend for the November cropclub. I will show you what they are for once I have completed the final touches....:-)
