"Lilli-gos" - layout

Hello there,
Over at the American Cratfs blog they had a "triangles week". Unfortunately I can't remember who made the .... with triangles as background, but I was inspired and came up with this layout.

It's about my bff's sweet daughter. I've used the Dear Lizzy Daydreamer collection along with enamel dots and wood veneer shapes. For the title my Thickers and Basic Grey letters came to use. Every here and there I aldo sprayed some yellow and blue mist.

As you may have noticed, the summer I'm only creating with a few lines. That is because I couldn't bring along everything I wanted. So I had to choose. But this was/is actually something good; I see how versatile the collections are and I use the papers and scraps more than I probably would otherwise. :)

"Mormor och jag" - MME June sketch challenge

Hello hello,

My grandma means a lot to me. Therefore I made this layout about us. She is now 95 or 96 years old and still goes dancing every now and then. Her hearing isn't the best (but that's life) but she's always with us on outings and parties. And she still lives alone in her apartment since my grandpa died.

I just love her!

On the layout I've used lots of yellow mist along with hearts and papers from American Crafts collection "Plus one" and My Mind's Eye "Chalked" collection.  I also sew some small trees as well for deco. I've used the sketch from My Mind's Eye June sketch challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

"No ordinary moment" - CS bday ed.

Hello there,

For a few years now I've been working in at a ski school in Austria. It also happens to be the same school where I learned how to ski when I was like four years old. At the end of the week we have/had a race and we would have to wear these ugly white/purple vests during the race. I was so mad about this that I skied down crying and hands before my eyes.

In February there's A LOT of people here skiing and I saw the same vests on a group of kids and had to snap a photo. Therefore: no ordinary moment :) (and what a surprise!)

Again, I have used American Crafts collection "Day dreamer" with chipboard letters from Basic Grey.

Thanks for stopping by!

"Cherish the memories" w/ CS sketch #261

Hello,

Here I've got a layout about memories. This little mouse contains quite a few memories from my childhood.

The layout came together rather quick (for being me) and I mainly used stamps from Badic Grey and the Instathingies from Prima. Together with paper from American Crafts collection " Plus one", a sticky border from Glitz and the Thickers title it all worked out well.

For the whole layout I have used Creative Scrappers Sketch #261.

Have s nice day and thanks for stopping by!

Happy birthday - card

Hello there,

For my oldest niece's birthday (she turned 12!!) I created a card by stitching the title in various colors. After that was finished I cut it out and placed it on a paper from American Crafts collection "Plus one". The black paper with the cameras really fit my niece, since she loves to photograph.

Have a nice evening and thanks for stopping by!

♡♡♡ 2 read - layout

Hello,
Today I'm sharing a layout about my love for reading books. When I have a good book to read it's hard to put it away. On the layout I included a list of the books I read so far this year.

American Crafts paper collection "Plus One" came to use and the border is created from the borders in the 6"x6" paper pad. For the title I used Thickers and created my own word with water colors and the cut it out.

I also colored the flowers with water colors to match the papers and background.

The books on the picture I finished three of them in two weeks! That's fast for beeing me, :P

Thank you for stopping by!

"Congrats" card

Hello there!
These colors are one of my favorites to combine. I actually created a layout first with the same colors and almost the same pattern, it's just not finished yet. But I like how I can see how my layouts are evolving.

I sent this card to one of my dearest friends - her birthday is tomorrow!

Have a nice day!

Finally

...I've got something to share. My scrapbook supplies are now with me and my mojo is in the house :P A little update: I'm still working six days a week with one fun job and one that's not that fun. My parents were visiting me about two weeks ago, which was great. We went to IKEA, hiking and just spent some time together. Now I hardly can't until the end of the summer whrn I go back to Sweden.

This is a layout for my youngest niece about how you should love and be yourself. I like the way it came out :)

Take me to the Beach - layout

Hello hello!
Fall is here and it's beautiful, but I have a christmas/summer layout to share. The pictures are from our Christmas holiday last year when we went to Teneriffe, Spain. It's called "beach" and the whole text says "Take me to the beach, waves at my feet, wind in my hair, sand on my toes, sun on my face" (a little something I found on Pinterest). 

To create the stencil I used a big circle stencil from Crafters Workshop and simply traced the circles and cut everything by hand. It was however very timeconsuming, so I probably won't do this again. I've also used a 6"x6" paper pad from American Crafts "Dear Lizzy 5th & Frolic" along with white cardstock and gold glitter Thickers.


With my Silhouette I cut out the banners with the text.

The photos fit perfectly in the circles since they were taken with my phone; small and low resolution.

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a nice friday!

Mini layout "2 mån"/"2 months"

Hello there!
Today I'm showing a mini layout 20 cm x 20 cm (12"x12"=30 cm x 30 cm, so smaller than 12"). I have an album where I test things or just create layouts quickly and not think about it too much, which is the opposite of what I normally do.

This one is called "2 months" and the pics are of me and my boyfriend celebrating 2 months together.
The papers are a mix of Echo Park, American Craft and Theresa Collins.

With washi tape I created the pink border (under the heart paper) and the blue striped circle. And some Thickers for the title.

Thanks for stopping by!
