It all started with my little Silja getting really sick. She was so sick that she was admitted to the childrens hospital for several days. She had a really bad case of Respiratory Syncytial Virus. She is doing so much better now but I'm so tired that I haven't be able to do anything else than taking care of her and Sunneva. Hopefully that is about to change. I miss scrapping. This weekend I really wanted to do two things. I want to do my <a href="http://davinie.blogspot.com/p/project-12.html">Project 12</a> lo for febuary and I want to do the <a href="http://www.pencillines.com/">Pencil lines </a>sketch. I really love the sketch for this week. I did not have enough time to do both things and to tell you the truth I don't feel that inspired these days. But I did<a href="http://scrapbookandcardstodaymag.typepad.com/scrapbook_cards_today_blo/2009/12/project-12-launch.html"> Project 12.</a> I loved the sketch but I don't love how it turned out. I don't know where my mojo is but the lo lacks layering and details. It's way to plain. The journaling is about how much I dislike Febuary. Strange since I got married Febuary 22 the year 2003. Febuary this year was all about cakes and parties. We celebrated all kinds of things in Febuary. Silja was babtized and we celebrated our 8 year weeding anniversary. DH and Sunneva were sick to name few things from the journaling. <br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 158px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588874892273230402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxSDlnipZWJlUC4nYfmgXJ3MBtdUSer_QJ2X2pIuLWXce76G3UmqSrxug1tNiEgXsxN_cw29XzsYCVAROYHziTt1D7Zh3al8w8TGlvvUVlgukYpu6iJtYLI1IE67V6m0B9sgtYriDaJUks/s320/febpage2-1.jpg" />TFL</p><br /><p>Over and out </p>Annahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02699978154262248209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1326667173214301262.post-76653465405034369632011-03-19T06:49:00.000-07:002011-03-19T07:09:51.323-07:00On track - two new lo's<div align="justify"> I'm pretty happy with myself today because I'm on track with Silja's month album. Ok, I know she is only 4 1/2 months old but I'm still glad. I got the pics I took on her 3 and 4 months "birthdays" 2 days ago and I did both the lo's yesterday (well I finished them today).</div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify">My good friend Ása Lára gave me these awesome month cards from Little yellow bicycle before Sila was born and I have used them on her lo's so far.

I was saying to my hubby that I wish I had done this for Sunneva also. I have created lo's over the years using pics taken on her birthday and I have written a long text about how she is at each age but I don't have lo's with journaling about the first months in her life. I have 12 pics taken 17th of each month the first year but no journaling. I kept a diary for her at the time. Maybe I could use that one for journaling ???? Well I'm not sure what to do.</p><p align="justify">Title: 4 months.

I woke up with the girls and spent some quality time with them until noon. Then I had a crop date with my darling scrapgirls. It was so great to get out of the house for few hours. The girl who hosted the crop is also my neighbor so it only took me 3 minutes to walk to my house to breastfeed Silja. I had so much fun just scrapping and talking. One in the group wasn't able to come and we missed her but hopefully we'll be doing this again soon.<br /><br />I did 2 one page lo's and 1 two pager.<br /><br />This one I did using <a href="http://www.pencillines.com/2011/03/sketch-228.html">Pencil lines sketch #228</a>. Great sketch for these pics of Sunneva in her Christmas Dress 2010.<br /><br />Title: The Dress.

I think I have bought all lines from them except two. I can't wait to buy their latest one called Playground. It's so perfect for scrappers with kids. Anyhow this one I did using a pic of Silja when she is 6 weeks old. So cute. The title Cutie.

Yes, I went on a little shopping spree and bought the Emma Shoppe line from Crate paper. I just HAD to have it and since I had fallen in the first place I HAD to buy few other supplies too. You can judge me ! What I'm thinking is that I can fall once of the wagon but only once.

What's up with that!<br /><br /><br />This family photo was taken by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/soleyosk/">Sóley</a> in January. What's so wrong with this picture is the fact that Silja is sleeping :-)<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 229px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575883998640000130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj77RFAUxppUCDB-7IFodhVFgWlOuhWyy3WC5aTYJyRbifS2DPArhj3qWwFUA_C0lzxz1hraiV66cE5z6e2DbOaYAeHtpEolLWTwSrmlyyZnieaTszbMeioW5L5cPNmzxkgGA0vg0sGf7pH/s320/IMGP9826.jpg" /><br />I haven't taken the Febuary photo yet. I still have 9 days to do it.<br /><br /><br />Tomorrow I'm starting the "From the Couch to 5 km" running program. I need to focus on getting myself into shape. My goal is 2 kg per month. Let's just say that I'll have to do that for many months to reach my final goal.<br /><br /><br />I use google reader to follow all the blogs I read. I follow 192 blogs and most of them are about scrapbooking. One of the blogs I read is Ania's "Little Corner of Ania". One thing she does that I totally love is to write a semi diary on her blog. I can't count the times I have tried to write a diary. I never stay with it for reasons I don't know. So I'm going to copy her idea and when I blog I'm going to do "my diary list" just for me.<br /><br /><br /><strong>Listening</strong>: to the <a href="http://www.sleepsheepandfriends.com/">sleeping sheep </a><br /><strong>Eating</strong>: Nothing<br /><strong>Drinking</strong>: Nothing<br /><strong>Wearing</strong>: A nursing top and pyjamas<br /><strong>Feeling</strong>: Tired but hoping to get maybe an half an hour (or more is Silja sleeps soundly) to to the <a href="http://www.pencillines.com/">Pencil lines </a>sketch for this week<br /><strong>Weather:</strong> Still and mild<br /><strong>Wanting: </strong>More sleep and time<br /><strong>Need: </strong>More sleep and discipline<br /><strong>Thinking: </strong>About how much I want to be able to scrap tonight<br /><strong>Enjoying: </strong>The Silence (both girls are a sleep and DH is out with his friends)<br /><strong>Wondering: </strong>How many minutes I have until Silja wakes up<br /><strong>Planning:</strong> Our 8 year weeding anniversary next Tuesday<br /><br />Over and outAnnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02699978154262248209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1326667173214301262.post-46552852690879912182011-02-18T03:19:00.000-08:002011-02-18T08:11:55.374-08:00Getting to know each otherAs you can imagine I'm taking alot of pics of Sunneva and Silja together. This 2-pager has 4 pics of them together the first days after Silja was born or from Nov 3 (her birthday) to Nov 29.

I should be able to create 15 LO's and 4 cards per month (at least...right !) So my challenge is to create 50 LO's and 12 cards and not buy any new supplies until I reach that goal. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">How does that sound ?

I can't believe it since I did not have that much time this month to scrap. These 12 LO's have been created when I have 10-15 minutes to spare.<br /><br /><br />This 2-pager took me "forever" to finish. Why ? Well I haven't had that much time the last few days because of my little girl. She really needs here mom to hold her these days.<br /><br /><br />I have this huge pile of pictures of Sunneva that I need to scrap and I'm working myself through them. I took these cute pics of her last Summer. The journaling tells her to always remember to enjoy the little things in life.

I feel stuck. I feel like all the LO's I create look the same and are not good enough. My problem is that I love so many differents styles. I love vintage, shabby chick, lo's filled with details, I love clean and classic etc but what is my style in all of this.<br /><br /><br />I have found out that I'm happier with my clean LO's. The one that have clean and straight line. I love details so what I'm aiming for is straight lines, clean look and details.<br /><br /><br />This is a LO I started yesterday and finished today. It's not straight and clean and guess what I'm not that happy with how it turned out.<br /><br /><br />What I love about this LO are these two Doodlebug papers I used for this LO (the red one and the one with the hearts).<br /><br /><br />These pics were taken last Summer.
