Newborn

I used a simple design for these pics taken few minutes after Silja was born (Nov 3 2010).

I got this very cute New Arrival Pebbles papers from Anna Sigga and they were just perfect for these pics. I also used some very old products from my stash on this lo.

Title: Few numbers

Supplies: Pebbles, Bazzil, Daisyd's (very old brads), Teresa Collins, Prima (old flowers), Tim Holtz, Doodlebug, Making memories (old chipboards) and Stickopotamus (some very very old vellum stickers (the hearts).

My little shoebox

I'm in love with MLS products. They are so much fun and I just can't help but smile when I browse through their products.

These pics are from last Summer and Sunneva is enjoying the Summer rain. The title is taken from an icelandic song and translates to something like: I like the rain or I think the rain is good.

Supplies: MLS, Bazzill, Making memories and EK success.

It's snowing

We finally got some snow here and I love taking snow photos so I used the oppertunity and went out with the camera. I even took some pics of Silja "in" the snow but on this LO I used pics of Sunneva. Silja's first snow lo will be created later.

I used some Bo bunny papers I got from secret santa last christmas. I love this paperline. It's totally gorgeous. I used a sketch from Pencil Lines and the fan fold flowers I made after seeing this tutirol online. These flowers are so simple and really gorgeous !

Title: Snowing

Supplies: Bazzill, Bo Bunny, Maya Road, Making memories, MME, Basis grey, American crafts, EK success, Martha Stewart and Prima.

Project 12 January

Whoo hooo my first 2-pager for Project 12 is done ! I really like how it turned out, clean and simple. I used the sketch and it was fantastic to work with. I love this project and I'm so glad I'm finally doing this.

Each month I'm going to end the journaling with few words that sums up how the month was for us. Also this month I used a color combo that I feel describes the month very well for me. Grey = tired, pink= taking care of my two beautiful girls and blue = soft weather and spending alot of time home (inside). Don't ask why but these colors mind me of these things right now.

Last part of the journaling (the words): breastfeeding, crying (Silja), staying home alot (me), work (DH), school and hobbies (Sunneva), my mom and dad (helping out) and soft weather.

Supplies: Bazzill, Basic grey, Echo Park, Webesters, American Crafts, Martha Stewart, Stamping Up and EK success.

On the pics you can see my mom, my dad, Sunneva and Silja (and a little bit of me).

Also this means I have done 2 LO's so only 48 more to go :-)

Too much spending ?

Lately I have been spending too much money on scrapsupplies. Normally that would be ok (or at least I tell myself that) but now I'm on maternity leave and have to think more about what I spend my money.

Today I ordered two punches from Two peas that I told myself I had to have and I'm waiting for an order from HSS. So as you can see this shopping sickness has hit my hard :-)

When I saw this on Hanna's blog I knew this was just the thing for me. I have way too many paper sheets, embellies etc and I need to use up my stash before I buy more. Phewww this will be hard since I'm longing for some of the new Create Paper, Maya Road, MLS etc.

I have also put into a wooden winebox embellies I have had for some time now and I have challenged myself to use every item in the box before August 31.

So how many creations should I aim for ??? 20, 30, 50 or 70. Let's see last month I created 12 LO's and 4 cards and it was a hard month because Silja's colic was bad so did not have much time to scrap. 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.

How does that sound ? For every LO I do I'll put 100 ISK in a jar and for every card I create I'll put 50 ISK in the jar. When I reach my target I can use that money to buy some of the new CHA stuff.

I'm starting this challenge today ! Hopefully I will reach my goal number before May 1.

A Summer LO

There are only 2 days of January left and I have done 12 LO's and 4 cards. 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.


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.


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. Like flowers.


Title: Enjoy
Supplies: Zva Creative, Cosmo Cricket, Bazzill, Collage Press, American Crafts, Martha Stewart, EK Success, Prima, Skrapp og gaman (the gorgeous pink flowers) and scrap.is (the leaves pin)
