My projects for 2012

My sweet friend Janet has offered to send my order from Amazon to my house and now we are gonna work on our projects together next year, with the Ocean between us. That is gonna be so much fun.

What are we gonna do:
Project Life and we both have the turquoise version (paper and digi version). I am gonna do this one with Duncan and Lex, a Project that we are gonna love I am sure of that.
One Litte Word and we are both taking that class
Photo-A-Day and we are both doing this class too.

We are still figuring out the details between the two of us and thinking about doing one more project, so we will see!! I am so happy we are gonna do this both.

I will be back soon with more news, more digi-pages, more pictures. For now, one of my little boy being excited on Christmas-Day.

and for those who are wondering: that is not a real earring, LOL!

iDSD - international Digital Scrapbooking Days

That's this weekend, that means lots of free and gorgeous downloads all around the web. And lots of sales in all the cool shops. Have not been doing much shopping, it is too early for shopping. And I do not have time to play with all the nice stuff that is around.

I don't know how some people manage it to make so many layouts this time of year. I cannot seem to find the time to just sit down and relax and scrap, but who knows, soon, LOL.

Don't have much to share but wanted to see if there are some people who would want to play with my templates, so in honour of iDSD I have a freebie for you all.

You can click the image for download or click here.

Hope you have fun with the template, can't wait to see what you make with it. Here are some of my layouts I made with it:

Hope to be back soon with a new freebie for you all. Have a great weekend and fun iDSD!!



The Voice of Holland V

People who follow this blog know I will give an update every week about our favorites from the Friday shows. But you have missed last week. And you are so right. Last week was our least favorite show so far. Not one of the singers stood our for us. So no YouTube movies to show you, LOL.

In about 15 minutes today show is gonna start, so who knows maybe some movies tomorrow.

I will be back, leave you with a picture of my little sweetie:

Oh my gosh...

...check this out. My friend Tracy Martin is a new designer at the FunkyPlayground and she just designed a wonderful kit and you know what? My Duncan was kinda her inspiration for this one, how is that!!!

You should really check out Tracy's blog, she has some great freebies too every now and then and you should really go to her store.

Here is what Tracy wrote on her blog about this kit and ofcourse a preview of the kit:

Hello top 5 :) When I buy a kit I always ask self... self...is it useful?
Will I use this once and thats it. I tend not to get the ones that I nod too...(we all do that right??!?! lol)
well this one, (IMHO) is useful!
Use the awesome layered numbers for birthday pages. Use this for top 5 favs each year for your child, top 5 music for your all about me album, goals for yourself, anything.
Funky bright and fun.... and in boy colours too for the cutest wee boy Duncan ;)Buy it here

And when we are talking about new stuff she has a great new Acrylic Alpha that is a real must have:

Promise me when you have read this you go check out her blog and store.



Create

On Facebook Kelly from Simply Kelly Designs asked for people who wanted to design something with her new kit Crafty Kids. When I saw this kit I thought about some pictures I have from Duncan with paint on his hands. When I got the kit I wanted to do something different with the kit than pictures with paint.

I have made a create layout but no painting layout. Kelly loved it, thank goodness. Last weekend she was a featured artist at 5 stardigitalscrapbooking with her kit and my layout.

Her is Kelly's kit:

And here is my layout with the kit:

Apart from all this, my MOJO is long gone and I have not been scrapping for the past few weeks. I so hope it will be back soo, because I love scrapping and have so many great pictures to scrap. So if you have some MOJO please send it to me, I be ever so thankful!!
