Challenge



I joined an online challenge in using pictures that were more than six years old. A very easy one in counting your pictures. A average scrapper has about two thousand unscrapped pics lying around and every time you seem to start with the newest ones. That stack will NEVER get any smaller!

LO 1: I think I was around four years old at this time
PP: Around the block, BG
CS: Bazzill
QK: Vixen
Other: Zip-e-mate typewriter



LO2: This picture was taken in 1979 (I was eight years old) Just me & my mom watching an open air theatre show in Rotterdam

PP: BG, Doodlebug

CS: Bazzill Rub-ons: DeLuxe Design, 7Gypsies

QK: Studio, Swirls (Revolution ;)) Vixen, tags (Revolution)

Halloween goodies

Nothing as hard as getting Halloween scrap goodies here. My luck is having a MIL in Canada who sends or brings some Halloween stuff over. She brought some great home decor items and some great SB supplies. I love the new Martha Stewart SB line!!!! She makes awesome stuff.

Something other than goodies than they brought was my early christmas gift. This is what they brought me: The Crop-in-Style XXL , and OMG is it handy. It fits an enourmous amount of supplies and it stabile and handy to move with. Thanks Santa!!! :)

Guest designer

Last August I was chosen to be a guest designer at RMH and I got four assignments. Not too hard to begin with but a lot harder since it was vacation time. The four assignments were: work with fabric, sketch, embellishments and a free one. I was greatful to have 300 printed pics from our trip to Tuscany (like pictures ever are a problem ;))

These are the results I came up with. There were put in their (worldwide) newsletter and I was on their site as the guest designer. I was honoured!

...............................

I'll have to post the pictures later. Somehow Blogger refuses to upload pics..........

Flowers & Basic Grey

Who would have ever thought that I was going to be a fan of flowers (all sorts) and BG???? Not me. This months contest on RMH got me going: Flowers. Well, you can see in the last couple of LO's that the flowers are there.
Here another LO I just did.

PP: BG (what a surprise)
CS: Bazzill
Stickers: Junkitz, Doodlebug
Chipboard: Rusty Pickle
Rub-on: My Minds Eye
Other: Flowers

The scan is a bit blurry because of the bulkiness of the LO. The flowers were not really made for scrapping ;)

Just a beautiful picture

A beautiful picture does not really need a whole lot of fuzz. Sometimes a piece of CS is enough to show the picture at it's best. For this LO I chosse a little busier line of PP (Blush by BG). The rest of the LO is fairly simple.
Tag: My Minds Eye
Brads: MM, CI
Flowers: Prima, Bazzill, QK
Lint: DB, CI, Prima, Sweetwater
Pen: ZIG Millenium, Pentel Pigment gel
