Sausan Designs and Pencil Lines

So i have been scrapbooking like crazy lately.I don't know what it is,maybe it's the weather?

Yeah,we have had sun the last couple of day's!Still cold though,and i have seen snow and ice...But still when i get up and i see the sun,i just feel so HAPPY.Can't wait for Spring and Summer,and not to forget Easter!

I came across this picture of Julian and me where he is only 1 day old.He was the most beautiful baby(to me...) and i was seriously on cloud 9.Can't believe it's almost 5 years back that i gave birth to my first child...I feel old,lol!!

The picture really matched the colors of the new Sausan Design paper,so i just had to scrap this picture with the cute Love Generation Love paper.I also used the fantastic stamps,retro frames and bubbly borders.The frames and borders already look like they are stitched but i wanted to add some " real" stitching too.Those frames are fantastic btw,i think you will see them on many more of my projects.

I decided to use the sketch 177 from the Pencil Lines blog this week.They all went for the romantic style so i wanted to make something " cool" .I distressed the paper with Gesso,blue ink,distress ink and walnut ink(spray).I stamped for the first time in months,fun!And recently i like to burn stuff.My paper and embellishments giving them and old/grunge look.Please be careful not to set your house on fire,like i almost did.I have some big black stains on my Orange carpet now... :)I also have some sneaks to show.I actually made my very first Christmas layout a few day's ago.Don't know why,but i never liked making Christmas layouts...Which is strange because i LOVE Christmas.I think the papers are too...busy and Christmasy.lol I guess that's why i only used Christmas cut outs and no Christmas paper for this layout.And my new favorite layout...Only a sneak,but sigh...I REALLY love how this one turned out.So whimsical...I did some thrift shopping today.Nothing much but i will show you my finds tomorrow.Including this very cute umbrella for only 50 cent!This weekend i am going to the first carboot sale of the year,yay!

Unfortunately my laptop is not working at the moment so i guess i have to spend my money on fixing that,boehoeee. :(

I will leave you with two pictures of my boy's.No photoshop here,so this will have to do for now!They look like me don't you think? :) And what's life without a little smooch now and then?Happy Scrapbooking!

BlueMoon Scrapbooking blog post

I blogged on the BlueMoon blog here.Go check out my layout for this week! :)

And do not forget to check out the new BlueMoon Scrapbooking kit called Cherry Banner.It is delicious!!!!

I am back tomorrow with some new eyecandy for Sausandesigns and some sneaks.

Holy Scrapbooking!

I have been so busy creating these last few day's/week's and it feels GOOD!Don't know why,but from time to time i alway's seem to lost my mojo.Hate it when that happens but it sure makes you feel really good when you find it back again.

So what have i been up to...Well Carnaval at school,means dressing up and play along with the kids.So happy there is no picture of me dressed up as "Heidï".I was wearing a dress with corset and everything!Couldn't breath all day while playing and dancing with the kids.lol

I also locked myself in my own house...
Tried to unlock the door and while pulling the key i did something.Not sure what?But atleast it was not good,because i could not open it anymore and i couldn't get my key out anymore.So i had to call and ask if they could send somebody that could fix my lock.That person had to climb through the window(in the messiest room!!With all of my Scrapbooking stuff laying around too...),and try not to break his neck.Luckily he did fix my lock and i could go outside again and fix me something to eat,ha!

Watched some movies.It's complicated;Ow my,such a fantastic movie.If you haven't seen it jet,go watch it NOW!Seriously,i have already seen it several times now because it is so great!I watched Couples Retreat.Started out funny but got boring,so a no no if you ask me.I also watched Dorian Gray.Beautiful movie,but a bit scary and dark.Not too much,because i watched it untill the end and that counts for something,believe me!I also watched The Hangover,way more fun then i expected!I am not into the whole "boy's coming too late on a wedding" movies,but this was actually a very cool one.NOT as cool as one of my new favorite movies called "I love you man".Seriously,such a FUNNY movie!!!Havn't seen it?Go watch it!!

Not sure what else...But if i think about it later,i will sure tell you about it in my next post! :)

Sooo up to Scrapbooking!WOW,i still can't believe i made it on the cover of Somerset Memories.So amazing,can't wait wait wait!Thanks for all the sweet comments,felt so good to read them all.

I got featured on the Sassafras Lass blog the other day.They showed two Sassafras layout's from me using Julian's pictures.I have to say that they matched the papers very well.Go check out that post,they shared lot's and lot's of fantastic projects!

I made it on the ScrapinStyletv.com Catwalk this week,with my layout Antiques i made for BlueMoon Scrapbooking.Very honored!Funniest part is,my dad told me i made it on the Catwalk!!He is even more up to date then me.lol It had been a while since i've been on SIStv,but the comeback feels good.Maybe it's time for that crop again??

Here are my projects for BlueMoon Scrapbooking.I am a bit late with showing them,i know!But the sooner i can show you my new projects!It's my turn this Friday,but be sure to check out the inspiration from the other designers.They are fab!And did you see the cool "Alice in Wonderland" pictures on the green/blue layout?It's my friends child Molly,who looks absolutely gorgeous in these pictures if you ask me.Okay it's 21:13,gotta run if i wanna scrapbook some more.Happy Scrapping!xoxo Fauve

Can i say TOOT?She is a COVERGIRL!!

I know it has been a while,and i need to update really badly...I am going to update tomorrow but i just had to share this!!Please jump and scream with me... :) Yes,she is a COVERGIRL!!

Have a great weekend!Mine started so fab...xoxo Fauve
p.s.It is the upcoming issue that will be released in April.

Did i mention my new addiction?

Okay so my mom and best friend totally pulled me into the Vampire hype that's going on at the moment.First it was Mari who keep telling me how great Twilight was,and that she read the books several times and waited in front of the Virgin store to buy the first Twilight dvd. :)

Since i am really stubborn i waited a while before i watched Twilight.(It took me 4 years or more to finally watch the first Harry Potter!!)But when i finally watched the movie,i completely fell in Love with it.I am now listening to the last audio book,and it's great.I am not much of a reader,so i was glad my mom kept pushing me about listening to the audio books!

My mom started to watch TrueBlood and Vampire Diaries a few weeks ago.I don't think TrueBlood is something for me.(The accent is kinda bugging me,ssssht!)But i am sooo addicted to Vampire Diaries at the moment.First it was kinda freaking me out because it's a lot scarier then Twilight.But now that i have seen the first 13 episodes,i sooo wan't/NEED to see more.

So it's Grey's and Vampire Diaries at the moment.What are you watching??

New kit is up!

Okay so the new kit @ BlueMoon scrapbooking is up.And Friday is my turn to show some eyecandy :)

This is the first layout i made...Told you i was gonna scrap this picture!!I wanted the small pictures to look like grapes,fun huh? I attached them with little rings.I believe they are for jewellery making?They are very light,so perfect for on a layout.Thinking about adding some stitching.But for i can do that,i still have to clean out my scraproom.(HUGE MESS!!)

I already gave 2 big bags to Julian's school,and they were happy.I also have 2 sneakies for you...But the layouts you can see on the BlueMoon blog next Friday!

And don't forget to check out what the other girls made,serious inspiration over there!

Hmmm Shabby??? :)
I am Home Alone,and wondering what i shall do next.Happy Scrapping!!xoxo

Better?

I played with the colors of the first photo from my last post.I think i like the first photo best,so here is the result.Better??I really like the Sausan Design overlay's,thanks Sylvie!

I have been playing...

Okay...i am officialy tired of the bad weather now.I wanna wear NORMAL shoe's again!The snow had been gone for like 2-3 day's and all of a sudden it was back again.I was sooo grumpy that day.lol

Since i can't take pictures of my work,i decided to play with some pictures of mine.I used an overlay from Sausan Designs.I have to admit that i had no clue how to use these things in Photoshop.But now that i do know,i am really enjoying it.The overlay's from Sausan Designs are perfect if you want to create a more shabby/old look.(She also has really cool overlay's for boy's to create a grunge kind of look.)

The longer i stare at pictures,the more flaws i see.Am i the only one with this habbit or shall we say problem?Oh well...Which one do you like best?Or maybe none...You can tell me,i can take it.I think...lol

Happy Scrapping!!

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT TOOT TOOT!!

Yes yes yes...I have a great TOOT to share!!Some of my work will be published in the April issue of Somerset Memories.I can't wait to see how it looks and i am very excited about this!Thanks for letting me share!!I'll be back with some eyecandy.Happy Scrapping Fauve

Wanna win a signed Tim Holtz die?

Hop on over to the BlueMoon scrapbooking blog and check out the give away!!

Time to show some more.

Played some more with the Blue Moon Scrapbooking kit.Made a layout and a dubbelsided card.Not sure if this layout and card is my thing...Still have a feeling it's a bit unfinished.And ofcourse the whole card thing just isn't my thing.I bet there are cardmakers screaming at the moment,looking at this LOL I had fun though...I'll be back soon!No time now since my best friend Mari is coming over today,yay!All the wat from Dubai...(Well A'dam actually)
Happy Scrapping

Is she really THAT crazy???

So i decided to make a picture from my eyeshadow color and show it to my girl Celine.She posted a message on her blog about her new fabulous color eyeshadow!I don't wear eyeshadow that often since i am more of a "natural" make up kinda girl,but i do like it.I just never buy,and wear it.Maybe i should change that??ANYWAY,i put some eyeshadow on one eye and made a picture to show.Like the color?It's a heavy color,for party's or maybe the runway?? LOL

I used ARTIST cream eye shadow color Dali 050 from P2.Since it's liquid it kinda looks like a lipgloss. :D
So after that i had to go and do some groceries.People were staring a bit strange at me,but i live in a pretty weird neighbourhood so i am used to it.So i continued doing my groceries and went to the cash register.All of a sudden the girl behind the counter(I do groceries several times a day,so they know me...) asked me why i was only wearing eyeshadow on one eye?

OW MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How embaressing is that???

Yeah,so this is a warning for all of you!!If you decide to make a picture for someone wearing something crazy,make sure you remove it BEFORE you leave the house.LOL

While i was making pictures from my eyeshadow,i made this picture where you can see me holding the camera in my eye.I thought it was freaking cool!!So gonna scrap this one.

Happy Scrapping! :)

Scrap in the crap...

So when i decided to clean out my Scrap/mess room,i had no idea it was going to be THAT bad...I mean,how can one person have so much stuff??!!(I should ask my friend Martine LOL)
I started on Saturday sorting out boxes with stuff.You know,Christmas stuff,old baby stuff and just random crap.I put the Scrapbook boxes aside and sort out all the other stuff and put the boxes back.But somehow in that process,a lot of loose random stuff was spreaded in the house.I guess that when i put it there i was thinking something like "I need to find a place for that,later".Only the later never came,because i still needed to sort out my Scrapbooking stuff.I decided to dedicate my Sunday to my Scrapbooking stuff.I'm not even close to finished...So now i not only have a huge mess in my Scrapbook/mess room,my complete house looks like there is a bomb exploded.Butttt they say you first have to make a mess to get it tight.So i am counting on that!Though i don't feel like sorting out anymore...That can be a problem LOL
I sorted out all my stickers and stuff,and i have to say...SICK,REALLY SICK!!No more buying stickers for me that is.(Beside thickers,but they are not really stickers right???!!!) ;)

So my friend Mandy showed a layout on her blog that was inspired by Celine's inspiration Tuesday.I was really inspired by it!So i threw my scrap crap aside and started scrapbooking.That's what i like best...Feeling inspired and just create,no matter the crap you're in!! :) Made this quickythe other day,i LOVEEEEEEEEEE the Mommy&Me line from Prima!!
Did you see the new sneaks on the Prima Marketing blog??I wan't it all!!I love the shabby soft but also the bright happy umbrella stuff.Hooray for new stuff,so inspiring!

Off to scrap in the crap some more!Happy Scrapping :)

Hugs and Kisses

Time to show 2 layouts i made for Blue Moon Scrapbooking.

Be sure to check out the blog.There is a weekly giveaway,and a chance to win a $10.00 for the store.All you have to do is answer a question!!

First one is about my Love for Twilight.The people who have seen the movies or read the books,know that the vampires sparkle in the sun.That inspired me to use the crystals from the alphabet as sparkles.I cut pieces from the Pink Paislee boarderlines to add some color to the layout.Second one is my very first Valentine layout EVER. :) I never really celebrated Valentines and never had the right pictures,so this was fun!On the picture is my brother with girlfriend,hope they like it.Guess it's time to make some Valentine pictures myself...

Here are two sneaks,cute colors huh??
Didn't do anything this week,it has been a terrible one.Kids were sick,i was sick...Guess snow is NOT our thing!Luckily it's melting and hopefully it will be completely gone next week.Our toilet wouldn't flush.Maxim broke Julian his Nintendo DS,and the list continue's.I did make some pictures from Maxim today,we had fun.

I will be back with an Autumn page.LOL Happy Scrapping!

Hugs and Kisses

So i played with the Hugs and Kisses kit from Blue Moon Scrapbooking,and here is the layout i made.It's been a while since i played with a kit,but i have to say that this kit really inspired me.I also have two sneaks to show.As you know,i never make sneaks...But it looks kinda cool like this right?? :D

So who celebrate's Valentine???I have never been a huge fan of Valentine,but i alway's have to do SOMETHING.Hmmm maybe breakfast with everything heart shaped??Not really refreshing,but who cares lol

My "little" toddler started pre-school last week.WOW it's all going way too fast!Luckily he still acts like my little baby.He really enjoy's being the "baby",so that's kinda funny.I better enjoy it now i still can...

And last but certainly not least,i wanted to show you this cake my mom made.My Mari gave her a book about cakes,and it inspired my mom to make this for someone at work.Cute cute cute!

So since it's still snowing outside(Ulgh!!),i spent my time watching movies,listening audio books and scrapbook.What are you doing??

I watched movies and scrapbooked this weekend at Martine,that was fun!Loved watching Mr& Mrs.Smith.Brat is SO HOT!Well,so is Angelina... :D

Happy Scrapping!

Where to begin...

Okay once again,my big plan was to keep my bloggin up for atleast 3 times a week...And yeah once again,i failed.LOL I blame the holiday's and stuff,so i am going to try again from now on.(Don't kill me if it doesn't work out!!)My boy's are taking all my spare time now a day's.But my youngest started pre-school last Monday,so i am hoping to spend some more quality me time.

Okay so i guess my suprise TOOT'S are a bit late...lol And probably not a suprise anymore,but oh well!First i wan't to tell you about the new paper collection from Sausan Designs.It is AMAZING!!Beautiful colors and fun designs,see for yourself.

Love Generation

I played and made this layout.It's called "Special Made",and it's about the picture i made for my boyfriend when he was away on vacation.Just to showcase how i looked that day,lol!! I loved using Sylvie's cool stamps too,look at that lettertype...
This one was just for fun :) Title say's; Hey curlyhead!Picture is edited by Adrienne Looman.And the other good and exciting news a.k.a. TOOT is that i am a new Design Team member for Blue Moon Scrapbooking.An amazing store with their own beautiful kits.I am playing with the Hugs and Kisses kit,and it's a MUST HAVE!See all those great embellishments??Yeah,perfect for that shabby love i have going on at the moment./;
