here are the layouts that i wanted to post yesterday, but blogger didn´t.




story: i have been thinking about what one would call our home interior style lately. we have a mish mash of old and enheritated furniture... but we love it very much!

goods: i did my journaling on my computer and then added some patterned paper and a tag from mme and the bird cage rubon is from hambly.





story: hehe i know i am a dork to record this, but when i read the last one i did i could really remember what i did then.

goods: super simple really, i bought a calender pdf from erinzam´s etsyshop and printed one of the calender pages as a foundation for my layout. then simply journalled and embellished it.

remember this?

do you remember a post i did here about a new abc minibook i was working on? well, i have a few new pages in it that i wanted to share.



when blogger alows me to post more photos (argh!) i will share a few new layouts too!

weekend recap

we had a most wonderful weekend. this is what is consisted of:

birthday celebrations



funny kids



wonderful, warm friends

dinner right by the sea



a soccer game



funny signs in the park



penguins :)



ruffled behinds :)



laughter
smiles
hugs
love

this week starts in the best way = with a craftmeeting with friends :)
after that we all have a kind of hectic week of dance class, food shopping and other things. but i plan to make some fall decoration around here (in my house), so will surely be here (on the blog) to show things!

was your weekend great too? i hope so!

happy friday!

i hope that you all have a wonderful friday and weekend! we are heading down to the city to meet up with a lovely friend! i am sure the weekend will be full of laughter, good meals and some shopping perhaps :)

a mini

i made a very simple summer favorites mini album where i wanted the photos to be in the focus. Almost no journaling yet, but i am only going to add little. the products used here are mostly october afternoon and my minds eye which must be 2 of my fave productlines ever!











how did you keep memories from your summer? link me up!

i am here, but am super busy. i just wanted to say that i had a wonderful time reading the article about Jennie Garth on cookiemag.com . I watched the slideshow and took notice of the questions they asked her. Hm...they would be good for a project...

i will be back soon!

tutorial :)

i have read so many great tutorials and i have tried to write a few myself. now i thought that i would try again!

during a walk in the forest with my dogs i was thinking really hard to get some new craft ideas. as you know, i love acorns and found some acorn hats laying on the ground in the forest, took them home and there i made some natural/wooden acorns that i am going to use as necklaces.

what you will need:

acorn hats
a nail or some other sharp pointer
glue
light green wooden bead
small hooks or wire
grip

1. poke a whole in the middle of the acorn hat so that you make a hole to put the hook. if you don´t have a premade hook (i used small ones that you usually use on frames) you can make small hooks with wire.



2. put your hook through the hole and fill it with glue. if you have glue that become see-through when it dries you don´t have to worry if there is some acess.



3. take your wooden bead (i used a light green one i had to make a really green acorn) and put it in the glued hole. try to get the tip of the hook to go in one of the beads holes to make the whole thing more sturdy.



4. let dry and decide on how you want to use your acorn :)

thank god it is friday!

oh, it feels so good that the weekend is ahead! i am beat. before we have a soprano-date (we are watching the series) i wanted to share a few new photos i took just the other day. still garden photos, but i am still picking strawberries and other things and i am so very happy about that!






our sallads are taking on a life of their own :)




just take a look at these natural treasures :)



and i have one new layout to share but i am too tired to do the story/goods thing today ;0 (that was ment to be a yawning smiley!)

a framed project!

i wanted to share a super simple framing project with you. i went to bighugelabs.com where i usually make my flickr mosaics. this time i used the pop art poster thingy. you can choose a photo and it will be made into this:



i love the colors by the way :)



i had a bigger frame laying around but it was brown, so painted it black. then put the image in and voila!



that´s all for today, but tomorrow i have a few scrapbooking projects and photos!
