It has been days since I last got the chance to do some blogging. And the worst of all is that I won't even have time today, since I have a workshop at work that will take the whole day.So between work and doing stuff around the house and going to the gym and scrapbooking (luckily I have time for that) I have not been able to blog, but I do have tons to tell and share. Hopefully I will get to it tomorrow.I am making the chistmas gifts for our office. I am making calanders for 2009 for each client. There are 34 that needs to be do

Every morning I open my blog and the very first thing I see is the Cool Cats and the Cutest Kitten. Are they not just the cutest???I love cats - especially kittens. There is nothing cuter than a kitten playing or sleeping or doing what kittens do best. I just adore them! I can not get it around my head how people can hurt such gorgeous creatures. For that matter I can not get over how anyone can harm ANY animal!I had a terrible ride home yesterday afternoon due to the fact that I had tons to do before I could go home. But final
Stories in Hand Day 2
Tuesday, November 11, 2008
Kenneth Tang said, "We write because we're human. And we have stories to tell. Stories of love, of romance, of heroic struggles. We write because deep within us we must tell our stories, lest they (and the memory of "us") be lost to the winds of time. We write because we want to leave a legacy, a memory , in order that others may know that we had passed this way, and that we had lived. Thus we write as a witness to our lives - for ourselves and for prosperity."According to Jessica Sprague, today we will start diving into the sto
Stories in Hand Day 1
Tuesday, November 11, 2008
I registered on JessicaSprague.com for Stories in Hand.I have not really been able to get my mind around what it is about. But as far as I can see it is like keeping a journal regarding the past, present and future. It is about gathering information.I downloaded SIH Project Day 1: Cover and Tabs. Jessica Sprague gave us the cover of the album (6x6) as well as the different Tabbed Dividers - there are 3 main dividers (Roots, Family and Self) and some Sub-Tabs for the Family section (Spouse and Child). Since we do not have human c

I am not impressed with the fact that it is Monday since it means that another week has started. A week filled with lots of meetings and work, and not much time for scrapbooking. But looking at the upside - it is one week closer to holiday and christmas!The bad side of this Monday is that it has been raining non-stop for the past three days. Which is good for the garden, but not so good for travelling to work.We had a full weekend. On Friday afternoon I went to scrapbooking class. The class was taught by Anna-Karra and she showed
Look at what I did

I scrapbooked a picture that I enlarged on canvas. And oh boy, was that fun. And in the end it turned out really great. I am really impressed with myself and so happy about it. It took us the whole of Saturday to do. But now it is finished and just waiting to be framed. For the moment I am going to leave it as is, but in due time I will have it fr
First attempt at Scrapbooking outside the box - an Exploding Box
Monday, November 3, 2008
For the very first time ever I did some scrapbooking out of the box. And I really enjoyed it. I never thought that it culd be so much fun.At first I thought an exploding box would be very difficult to make, but I was ecstatic to find that these are actually very easy. I decided to blog about the steps I used to make the box (since I do not have mu

We have had trouble with Imagine magazines, which have not been arriving on time at our local scrapbook shop. Then we found out that they will no longer be printing them. They are now only destributing digital copies. These copies you can not buy at a shop, you need to buy them online. Now I am not a big fan of digital magazines. What is the point, I like to have a hard copy in my hand which I can page through.But none the less. This morning a friend of mine receives the following email after she askes them what is happening to

I am probably the luckiest girl and have the best husband ever!I got spoilt rotten on Friday!I arrived home to a huge bunch of flowers (40 roses), 2 vases (since I complained the last time that I do not have enough space for all the flowers) and2 teddy bears. The reddy bears are the best - they are called aroma-bears. They each have a bean bag in
