Villa volta

I had a little time to scrap today during nap time...

If you've ever been to the Efteling you probably know this guy! Villa Volta..scares me everytime!!
For people who don't know the Efteling.. The Efteling is an amusement parc in the Netherlands and Villa Volta is a ride that makes you think that you're upside down..when you're not!

On this particular trip I went with my friend Irene from Norway.. She's the loves the Efteling as much as I do, so we've been quite a few times!!

For this lay out I used graphic45 papers, the letters are by thickers, the bird is from sizzix, all the felt shapes are from prima. I used crackle accents on the watch and lettering..




Thanks for looking!

Hip Hip Hooray.. or Joepie de poepie

I just got an email from Basic Grey that my familie lay out has been selected for their galley!


Just wanted to share my happiness!

good times

It's another sketchy sunday on de Scrappers anonimous forum.

I used three different basic grey lines for this one.. wassail, bittersweet and marrakech. They just seemed the match together.. I used a whole sheet of rub ons from Daisy bucket, the tree (branches) and bird are from maya road. I cut a piece of one branche and glued it to another, creating a tree. The littel bling flowers are a storebrand and I gave them a little cinnamon stickle centre.
I have no idea who makes the letters... but I stickled them too...





Thanks for looking,

altered match box and spring

And back again with another post..

I just wanted to share my little piece of spring..... (I'm so sick of winter.. I just want to sit outside in my yard with the sun on my face...)





And while cleaning out my closets this morning I found the little matchbox with max's teeth in it.. (I knew it had to be in there somewhere..)
I decided to alter it a bit with some left-overs. I think it came out so cute... I love it... A little itty bitty mini lo...







Thanks for looking and commenting..

sweet boy

It's been a while since my last post!

The boys are taking up all my energy at the moment. The youngest keeps me on my toes.. Turns out he takes after his mom and has a creative side.... I now own a beautiful piece of art work... crayons in all colors on my wall upstairs...

This lay out was made from a sketch on teh scrappers anonimous blog (sketchy sunday, feb 8th)..




Thanks for looking!
