I went shopping today.....

I went shopping today. With my mother in law we went to the centre of the city we live in. I bought some new clothes and for some reason (I don't know why, lol) I chose something with a print in the style of Berna Datema's scrap kits! For this layout I used her kit Kitchgarden Retro Veranda and the background paper is from the kit Painting Angel. I also used elements from Early Blooms. It's all available at Scrapbookgraphics.com.

I'm guilty of doing another layout with Guilty of Love!

Ok, I'm guilty! Of doing another layout with Guilty of Love by Berna Datema! The kit will be in the shop (Scrapbookgraphics.com) this weekend together with a fun word tag set Who's Talking Tags. The kit is so girly and the flowers and alpha are fun to work with!

Another layout with the Kitchgarden series of Berna Datema

The Kitchgarden series of Berna Datema is so huge, that you can make hundreds of different layouts with it. For this layout I used Kitchgarden Blanco Papers, Blue Papers, Framed, Elements en Taped and also the alpha Painting Angels. It's all available at Scrapbookgraphics.com.

Layout with A Hint of Vintage by Veronica Spriggs

Now I'm also in the CT of Berna Datema I'm working with different products of hers. For this layout I used the Kitchgarden series (Blanco Papers/Taped/Elements) and I also used the Early Blooms Alpha and the Eye Love You Old Photos 16 overlay.
It's just a great combination with the sepia photos of Castle De Haar!

My Project 365 is a Project 52!

I love the idea of the Project 365. But for me it's just to much... So I've decided to do a Project 52. Here's the result of my first week in 2009.
I used the kit For Amy by Brenda Smith Designs and also one of the Januari Project 365 templates of hers. The alpha and music notes are from the ESS Collab Girls Rock, the Precious Memories Tag is by Misty Mareda and the tag is from No Room for Grey by Retrodiva.

Another winter layout with Magical Winter by Katrins Design

It has been very cold in the Netherlands the last weeks. So there was ice! And ice in the Netherlands means that everybody is ice skating!! These photos are taken last Sunday near our house. For this layout I used the kit Magical Winter by Katrins Design. It's available at Scrapladies. I just love the magical elements in this kit!

Me with my accordeon layout with Chasing Time by Veronica Spriggs

This is me with my accordeon playing for the grandmother of my husband. Her birthday was on January 1th. I didn't play for at least 20 years until 2 years ago. But since 2 years ago I haven't played either. So I'm a bit rusty. But since this birthday I try to play half an hour every day and it's getting better and better.
The kit Chasing Time by Veronica Spriggs was the perfect choice for these photos. The colors combine perfectly! The kit (and add-on) is available at Digiscrap Boutique and Pickleberry Pop.

Another winter layout with Magical Winter by Katrins Design

It's still cold in the Netherlands. People are ice scating all over the country. But this photo is taken at the end of November when we had some early snow. For this layout I used the kit Magical Winter by Katrins Design at Scrapladies.

Layout with Frog Prince by Brenda Smith Designs

Isn't Thijn a cutie on this photo! Brenda Smith's new kit Frog Prince is perfect for this photo! I also used her Glitter News Alpha, it's a great combination! The kit is good for boy photos but it has also enough elements and papers for a girly page!

Happy 2009 layout with Chasing Time by Veronica Spriggs

I made this Happy 2009 layout with the kit Chasing Time by Veronica Spriggs at Digiscrap Boutique and Pickleberry Pop. The clock is just great with the firework photo from, how we call it, Old & New. I made this photo through the window, because I'm a bit afraid of it.

A Winter layout with Magical Winter by Katrins Design

This winter layout is made with the kit Magical Winter by Katrins Design. I have guested for her some months ago, but now she is selling at Scrapladies. So I chose this wonderful winter kit to work with the next two weeks. For this layout I used the lighter colored paper and elements. Isn't that snowman cute?!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!

I'm very happy 2008 is over, it was a terrible year for us. I really hope 2009 will be much better and that Manfred will recover from his injuries.
We had a quiet evening, but the end of it was not fun. Some of our neighbours where putting their firework trash on fire very very close to our garage. And the wind was blowing in that direction. I asked them to stop it and as they didn't want to, then to do it some meters aside, but they were laughing about it. Probably they were drunk. So we couldn't get to bed before that fire was out. We were a bit afraid that the garage would get on fire with our car and motorbike in it.

I hope everyone has a great 2009 with lots of creative inspiration!
