A page and a project

It's been too long since I uploaded something new here. I have been so busy at work and my social life has never been so busy as it is these weeks.

We have an amazing guest designer over at HSS Julie Overby her challenge was: "This challenge is all about cutting it up Create a layout with 'fussy cutting' on it."

I used the nov kit from Studio Calico to create my LO. Title Together. It's been so long since I scrapped (or at least it feels like it's been long) that I felt rusty.

I have Ali Edwards in my bloglines and I love all the fun scrap projects she does. Documenting Dec is one of them and I'm going to do it. The hole point of this project is to have the album ready when Dec 1 comes along. The only thing I'll have to is to print out the pics and write the journal each day. The title of this mini album is: 26 days of Dec 2008.

Guess what happend to my "baby" over the weekend ??? A co-worker was playing with my camera (lesson never hand over your camera to someone else) and he ruined some part of it so now it's beeing fixed (or at least I hope they can fix it). I'll borrow my dad's camera !!! I feel like someone hurt my baby.

HSS guest challenge

I have not been in much creative mood lately but hopefully that will change soon.

I did though finish a mini album for Skrappa's next newsletter. I'll be posting pics of that one when the newsletter is out.

As always we over at HSS have a great guest designer for Oct Helen MacCain had a great challenge this month check it out here her sample LO is freaking fantastic.

This is the challenge:
"What is one of one of those little things that make your town, family, children or state what it is? It can be unique, funny, an inherited characteristic, or a landmark, maybe something that only occurs seasonally. Scrap about it, with or without a picture, and tell your story."

Title: Kópavogur (the name of the town I live in)
Journaling: Reykjavík --Gardabear--Kópavogur ? Will Kópavogur be the last town I live in ? As things are now I think so but only time will tell. I'm just getting to know my new town but there is one building there the Church that I have always admired. I don't go to church so it's not about that. In my mind this building has always been a symbol for Kópavogur.


Supplies: Papers and journaling box MME, Coredinations ColorCore Cardstock, Hambly rub ons, Maya Road chipboard, Glitz stickers and Prima flowers.

So my scrapfriends Kathie and Anna Sigga tagged me thanks girls. I'll post 7 random facts about me tomorrow. I'm too tired now to do it.

A 2-pager and my weekend project

Today is the first day of Winter and we have snow ! I love snow and I really need to take my DD out and get some cute snow pics.

This is a 2-pager I did last weekend. I could not for the life of me figure out how to scan the first page. For some reason it was all a mess so I just took a photo of it. These are pics from my mom's suprise birthday. She turned 70 last year and did not celebrate her birthday. My parents spent her birthday in Germany so when they came home we held her a suprise party.

Title: Suprise Birthday party

Supplies: Rusty pickle patterned paper and die cuts, bazzill paper, prima flowers, Fancy pants stamps, American Crafts thickers, MM stickers, Q&co pearls (I just love those pearls) and a lot of Tim Holtz distress Ink.

So this weekend I'm going to try to finish up my Skrappa newsletter project. I started it last weekend but need to find some inspiration to finish it ! So that is on my to do list this weekend with some other things.
