The new challenge @ inspired by Amelie is online.It's all about letters!Come along and play,we have a great price by A Million Memories.An awesome kitclub with cheap International postage!

I played around with some paint and gesso.WOW finally some real scrapbooking!I was done with the "quickies".... :) I like how this one turned out.I really enjoyed using all the clothing tags!! I recieved this blog award from my friend Miranda.Thank you so much!!I feel like i don't really deserve it,since i've been such a terrible blogger in the past...But it makes me really happy to have friends that still read my blog after all this time and all the non blogging!I am waiting for my new pictures to arrive...New pictures alway's give me some creative boost!!
Sooo,i'll be back.Happy Scrapping!

Rock Star!!

Yesterday i decided to make some Rock pictures of Julian.I was LOL seeying him in his skinny jeans.He thought it was pretty cool :)This is his Rock face...

We are celebrating our 1 year anniversary on the Amelie blog.We are giving away fabulous prizes and are doing some fun challenges.be sure to check it out!

Picture update!

It has been a long time since i updated with some pictures.I didn't have any new ones,because i was too lazy to go outside and take some.(Not afraid to admit it!!) The weather has been terrible,and i can't stand the rain!We didn't do a lot these past day's,but yesterday i needed to go to the city and i brought my camera with me.We went to the skatepark,but unfortunately the graffiti in Lelystad sucks...My boy's look cool anyway :)

Quickies!

I have alway's been a fan of scrapbooking "weird" topics.The things that make you laugh out loud when you think back at them,or those moments that were sooo embarrassing ;)

Ofcourse we all scrapbook about important events in our lifes,but i like to remember the "weird' things too...So if you have a layout about a weird topic,please link them.I would LOVE to see!!

This is one of those "weird" topics...The messy room from my brother.He is totally going to hate me for this because he had no idea i even made these pictures... :) I made this page in honor of my loverboy Mc.Dreamy.He is sooo cute,and i wish i could drink a cup of thee with him... :)

Both quickies,which was kinda fun.Happy Scrapping!

Love yourself

There were times that i hated myself.I thought i was just plain ugly,stupid and fat.Through the years i learned to love myself and accept who i was.I still have moments that i totally hate myself(When i stuff down a 2nd peace of cake!!),but most of the time i just love who i am.I am blessed with 2 beautiful kids,that i adore too much!I feel better about myself since i lost some weight.Still hoping to loose some more...but that will never change LOL ofcourse i am still busy getting my life on track,but i hope that when everything is settled i will be truly happy again.

So this layout is just one of those pages to remind myself of something.Love yourself!

Off to do some more scrappage now.Happy scrapping!!

Carnaval...so NOT my thing!

Yes,i went to Carnaval with my brother and his girlfriend Andrea.We watched the parade,which was way boring!I mean come on,look at the brazilian carnaval and then look at the Dutch carnaval...Seriously??!!

Afterwards i went to my brothers place to "chill" and eat.It looked great and comfy,fits my brother that's for sure.Around 7Pm we went to the city looking like this!Notice my brother didn't catch much sleep the night before.LOL Andrea went as a girls scout,totally cute!My brother went as Super Mario and i went as a "sexy" (UHUM) Secretary.Totally hate that 2nd picture of me,but oh well...It was sooooo crowded!We didn't really enjoy ourselfs so we were home around 12!!WOW a new record ha!

We watched a movie and went to bed.Guess Carnaval just isn't it for some people?Oh well,maybe next year we give it another try :)

The next day my brother and i went to my mom's for a sleep over.We had a really great evening with lots of laughs and alcohol hihi
Didn't do any scrapbooking but i can show you my layout for the ScrapMojo challenge.Didn't use stitching for a long time...Kinda liked it,so you'll might see that again on my next layouts...

Julian is finally getting potty trained!I tried everything,but nothing worked.He just didn't care LOL It is going really well and i hope he will be done with the diapers very soon!

Okay that's about it,nothing more to share...i think.Happy Scrapping!

Autumn

Yes,i'm probably the only one who is making Autumn layouts around this time of year...But,ask me if i care?Love this picture of my boy's.And eventhough they don't really look a like,they are obviously brothers.They are alway's playing and having fun together.I am not really an Autumn fan so these layouts are rare :)

Yesterday i wen't to my mom because i am staying here for a couple of day's.On Saturday i am going to stay at my brother's new "crib".Very curious to see how it looks!We are going to the carnaval,so i am guessing we will make some pictures to show you afterwards.

Thanks for looking and Happy Scrapping!

Don't look for Mr.Right,look for Mr.Right now.

My favorite quote from the movie 'The sweetest thing'.A really great girly movie with Christina Applegate,Cameron Diaz and Selma Blair.I made this layout to remind myself to just enjoy dating and stuff,and stop looking for that Mr.Right!I used the prince playing card from Heidi Swapp(Thanks Larissa!),and turned him into a "regular guy".The notebook paper is from a magazine called Flow.Seriously can't get enough of that magazine...I used my tiny alphabet stamps again.And eventhough i can't stamp straight,i love using them a lot!

Happy Scrapping!

No internet...SUCKS!

It has been FOREVER!I know that...I didn't have internet connection,and i was going CRAZY!But i'm back and can't wait to visit all my bloggin friends again :D

Havn't done a lot lately...Had some dates with a nice boy,so that was fun!I am not a big fan of dating since i alway's feel like it's some "meet inspection".But i might change my mind about this one ;)

Alway's wanted to be on a great Design Team??Well good news for you!ScrapMojo is having a Design Team call,and if i were you...I would totally apply!!I LOVE being part of this team,these girls are amazing.

Did some scrapbooking,but not much...Hope i am not loosing my groove!!Well i have had a lot on my plate,so i guess i am still busy on my comeback.Too bad it's taking longer then i expect.I guess it comes and goes with fases.

Anyway,here they are,hope you like them!I am probably forgetting something...But hey,this way i can update tomorrow :)

Happy Scrapping!xoxo Fauve

p.s.Will i get something for Valentines???

Layouts!!

Just a quick update about my layout for Scrapmojo and a layout which was just for fun!The Mojo challenge was about hero's.I totally wanted to use "hot mama" since people are always calling me that :D YAY,for them!!Come and play along,it's such a cool challenge and an awesome priceI was really in the mood for something tough and Urban looking,so i played with some pictures from my brother.Totally love this color combo!You can't see it on this picture,but my smilie turned in evil...

I've got a new hair-do,hope to post some picture tomorrow!Goodnight for now...

Uhuh,uhuh uhuh uhuh!

I'm coming back in the groove baby!

What i meant to say was...I did some scrappage,but you get that right?This layout felt so good!Not a lot of thinking,just doing it!Those are the best.I just Love this picture from my brother,last year in Paris.Really looks like he is pieing...
Journaling say's:have fun and dont care at all.

As you can see,i'm a real stamp dork.Totally messy,and i like it :D

This was one of those pages that i started and got stuck half way.Still not really satisfied,but i was done with it....

Journaling say's:So much to discover.Everything is new...Sometimes kinda scary,but most of the time a lot of fun!It has been a long journey.Who know's where it will lead?

Don't you think that Cheshire cat is the cutest?

As i mentioned in my last post,i bought a Wreck Journal.And i swear,this was the best purchase in 2009 so far...I love playing in it.Here are two examples:

On the left page it say's; paint left overs...from my finger. Haha gotta love it!
And this one felt sooooooooooooooo good!You have to do this when you are in an annoyed/angry kind of mood...Just scratch it!!

Or you can go and burn a page... :DYes,i have a thing for Alice in Wonderland...I don't really like the movie,i just really like the characters.I bought these customized shoe's,and they are so pretty!A lot of stunning details,and so much to see.Unfortunately the magazine Scrap! is going to quit.Really sad because i loved working for it!This magazine started my scrapbooking journey and i am really thankful for it!

Happy Scrapping!

I'm still here!

Can't believe that the day's are flying by so fast!But i did manage to settle some things.Like for example...the kindergarten for Julian.He starts on Tuesday 20 January!Which is really soon,so that makes me happy as can be.He really missed school,and he can't wait to go back.I know that, because he has been asking me everyday since we've been there...

I did some scrapbooking!!I had a rough start,but i think they turned out cute.Have to get back in the groove again.But...no worries,it will come again.(That's what i keep telling myself.)

My boy's in their banana boat.This picture keeps crackin me up!I can only show you one,because the other one is for the upcoming ScrapMojo.Which was so much fun to work on!I really missed playing along with ScrapMojo,but i had to get back on track first.

Which brings me to my Amelie blog.I took a break from it at the end of last year,but i am going to pick it up again.We are starting this year with a new Design team call and a blog make-over.So if you are interested in being part of a great group of Amelie designers,please enter!Keep an eye for the blog,it will be up in the next couple of day's!

I played with my camera again.Seriously can't get enough of my Canon!I still need to finish reading my manual...But then again,there are so many other things!!As you might see,i lost some weight.Feel much better about myself now.Gotta keep this diet up! So i played around in photoshop and i can't decide which one i like better.Opinions please!
And these two are only a bit different,but still i am not sure which one i like best.So i would like some opinions about this picture too!Not really sure why i named this picture "attic",because i don't even have an attic.I guess it just looked like that to me...I also think of Cowboy's when i look at the picture above.Don't ask me why... LOL
I am really happy that i finally purchased this.Who want's to play along with me?Talk soon,Happy Scrapping!

Hi!,I am

Fauvella.Cinderella's sister...For the past couple of day's i have been cleaning,cleaning and more cleaning.Seriously,life is so much easier when you only clean in the weekends :)

I have to admit that i feel so much better!Finally things are getting back on track.I found Julian a new kindergarten today,and i am going back tomorrow to settle everything.Ofcourse i still need to take care of things,but it will come eventually.

I wanted to make some pictures of Maxim with his Buzz Lightyear toy's.He has this little Buzz Lightyear doll that he holds all day long,Everyday!!So i need to take some pictures from that doll only,but i already like these a lot!As you can see,the doll is already missing a hand.Those are the signs that he is loved...

My kids got this little tent from Hema and i LOVE it so much!Luckily they like it too.Means i didn't buy it just for myself LOL Gotta love these colors too...It is covered in little animals,mushrooms,cakes and more.

Ofcourse the day wouldn't be complete without some kisses.Maxim is totally in to giving kisses,complete with mmm sound :)

So tonight i am hopefully going to do some scrapbooking.I tried yesterday but nothing would come out of my hands.So maybe tonight!

Happy Scrapping!

First eyecandy!

The new year has started!I am still at my mom's,but i will be going home today and start the "new life" on Monday.Which includes the words; Diet,structure and bye bye Pj's.(Gonna miss my Pj's!!)I found a helpful site that put's up schedule's for dinner and house cleaning.Unfortunately it's only in Dutch,sorry!But for the Dutchie's that are interested,HERE is the link.

It's really cold outside!But it's not cloudy or anything so i feel like doing some graffiti shot's by the cool walls i found in Lelystad :D Who knows...Maybe tomorrow!My plan is to finish reading my camera manual,since i Love photography but there is so much more that i can do with it.

Here is my first layout in 2009 and i hope there will be many to follow!Happy Scrapping <3
