Fall cards (2/5)

SCR_0003

Voilà two of the cards I'm doing. I'm slow but I'm having fun. I'm haven't done that many cards before so it's fun to try!

Now I'm off to town to find a gift for Audrey, we're celebrating her birthday tonight - 30! :) I 've made her a card too but still haven't  the gift, shame on me!

So, have a nice evening, maybe I'll continu my cardmaking tonight if I don't come home too late...

How to use Distress Ink?!

THG_0012

Anyone that can help me with this one? I may be a bit after but I've never used Distress Ink and I have no idea how to use it. Thought it would be easy to do edges but nope... You use water? Brush? Help! :) Please!

Bought it saturday and wanted to use it to do some clouds that I cut out (Sassafras-inspo) and make the corners "used". That didn't work. Tried to wet the paper and then brush over with the ink pad. That didn't work, messy and ugly.

So if you have a hint or an idea for me I'd be so happy, I wanna use this little inky! :)

I took some pics of my new fall cards but so bad lightning I'll have redo it better tomorrow.

Cuties

PRT_0024
Just want to show you my new shoes that I bought today. As the air is more cripsy I wanted closed shoes, ready for fall. I think I haven't put on real shoes since may... it feels strange to put socks on...

In two weeks we're going to visit Aude and Isis in Belgium for a weekend and also say a hi to the Netherlands so I really needed warmer shoes. And that's gonna be fun, go visit my friends! :D

I'm feeling a bit njanja tonight, headache and soar throat, blä. But I told myself that I'm not going to be sick so I'm not going to be sick. Not. I hate when I'm like this, I have so much ideas for scrapping and tonight was cardmaking-night but I'm all slobby on the sofa surfing the net. I look over to the dinner table and my scrap things and - pfff, no energy.

Well well tomorrow I hope I'm feeling better and that I'll do those cards, I have the papers and embellishements ready and when I'm done I'll just wait for my Pink Paislee-alpha that I ordered last week from US! Pricken över i:t! :D The title for my autumn-cards is going to be "Härliga Höst" (Lovely autumn) that I 'stole' (helt fräckt) from the superduper talented Nina! That girl is a heck of a card maker, go see what she creates! :)

So, me back to the sofa with Titan sleeping on my belly... and you, what are you doing tonight? Party or cosy at home? Or maybe working? Whatever you do, have a nice evening!

Mama Mia!


Swedish as I am I just had to go see the movie "Mama mia", based on songs from ABBA :)

If you want to see a Disney but without the cartoons, go see it! They sing every 5 minutes and it's that cheesy happy romantic-style like a musical. But it's fun! :) You have to really put yourself in the "ridiculus-mode" and sing a long, then you'll laugh! And frankly, Meryl Streep is one of the best actress ever, have you seen "The bridges over Madison County"? No? See it then!

I went with Aude, Isis and Stephanie and then we had some beers in a pub nearby the cinema.

A perfect soirée!

Today I'll try to make some fall cards for my family and go the gym-club.

Have a nice day!

Perfect Autumn Shopping

Yesterday was a perfect day, me and Ophélie went to Ikea, did some shopping, drove home, ate some spagetti bolognaise and then we scrapped all afternoon! :) We lit some candles and it was so cosy...

Ophélie is a girl from my class and she is just so adorable, really you want to eat her like candy!

For three days now I'm gonna work in a wineyard with some friends (since school is off for a month) and apparently it's really hard work so I hope I'll manage, money is always money! :)

Showing you the latest, and totally fresh, layout that I made yesterday:

Enjoy your day!

I ♥ september




Ah, what a wonderful day!

We celebrated Isis birthday today and we all met up at the golfclub and had a superb lunch and then some tanning by the poolside all afternoon... 

Only one thing, I forgot my camera so no pics.

But some new scrap, Johanna is a girl we worked with this summer and it's superwoman, she does everything and when you have a problem - Johanna is there to solve it! :)

Bon dimanche

Boys in the h... Wood!



Philippe and Nico at Aubanel where we worked all summer. Almost every evening we all ended up at the basecamp, drinking beers, listening to music and laughing! :)

Me like these shoes!


Bought them yesterday at H&M, only 35€! Nice!
Also sewed 2 new pillows for the sofa, tissu from Ikea. You can see that I like my swedish brands! :)
It's raining and I'm gonna scrap tonight I think!

Monday...

These are the stamps Tessie sent me! So cool! Now I just HAVE to buy an acrylic block to my clears stamps, I have some others from Heidi Swapp too but until now I used a CD-cover to stamp with... Must get the real thang now! :)

Other than that, monday, new week, lots of stuff to do and most important, to something with all this:


I manage to organize all my papers, it's so nice and clean and sorted by A-Z and then 3 days after it's all like this again. Why, oh why?

Have some photos I want to scrap from this summer but since it's my friends who tooke them and they put all their photos on Facebook, when you copy and save and then open it in photoshop it's really but reeaaally crappy shit quality. So aurevoir avec that idea. 

Well well. I have to begin pic-mania again and everybody will hate me with my camera under their nose :)

Have a nice monday evening, I think we'll look at DVD and have some raclette! :D

I'M BACK!



And I've been scrapping! Finally! So good! I got a little package in the mail a couple of days ago and it was Tessie that sent me some stamps (so cute!) and for her sweet thought I stole a pic of her from Facebook yesterday (hope you don't mind Tessie) and I did this LO of her!

Mmmm, so nice to be back! I took a little break now to blog some, 'cause this afternoon I'm scrapping and sewing some pillows for the sofa. After this post I'll do some swedish pancakes with whipped cream and strawberryjam - Yum! :)

Gotta take a pic of the sweet stamps she gave me and the coming days I'll try to post pics of my summer so you can see what I've been doing!

Have a sweet sunday, I can almost feel automn in the air and it's kinda nice!

:D
