Scrappemania OLW

Finally I've had time for some scrapping lately. *juhu*
Didn't bother to make room on my desk, so it looks like hell in my scraproom (have to do something about that in the near future *ehem*)

I "flied" this layout for the challenge at Scrappemania; using the word "Idyll" with the summerschool at Minneriket; using chabby chic technique.
I'm very pleased with the result

Just BE yourself

Getting inspired by the challenge at One Little Word, using the word BE, I made this layout of my youngest.
She is always making up faces and loves to be in the spotlight.
Here she's taking her sisters cap and sunglasses.

Creative with circles

Had really fun doing this layout for the challenge at Scrappemania. The challenge was to do something creative with circles or squares.
Used paper from Prima and Hambly. This is how it turned out:

How long was Adam in Paradise?

Not for long.....

This has not been one of my best days. My mother called me at 6 am to tell me we had to come and get my son (he got a terrible earache the day before.. went to the doctor etc)
We're talking about an 8 hour drive-one way. So I made a deal with my DH and my mother that they would meet half way. My DH got so stressed, that on the way he manged to fill the tank with petrol instead of diesel *faint*. Had to call the car rescue and get towed to the nearest car workshop. It took ages and cost at fortune.
My son came home in tears because of the pain, and because he had to leave his grandmother. Not much fun being a mother then.

This LO of him is for the summerschool challenge over at Minneriket where we should use buttons.

Luxury!

Today my sister in law called and wondered if Mette would like to join her cousin at a camp at Tromøya. And of course she jumped in excitement!


So now we have only the youngest at home until Sunday. What a luxury!! Only one child for 4 days *juhu*


So tomorrow I'm going to scrap. Just have to look around to see if I can find some challenges. So if you have come across any, please let me know ,-)





Here are some pics from last week..... we borrowed my brother-in-law's cabin at Storsand, Hurum, and had some friends staying from Steinkjer. The weather was great!
On Friday we went to Villa Malla; a restaurant with the most delicious food I've tasted in a long time. I do recomend a visit!
We also visited Tusenfryd and Sommerland in Bø.

Challenge at Scrappemania

Made this layout for the {Maniasummer} over at ScrappeMania before I went on holiday last week. They challenged us to use at lot of flowers, and one should be handmade (the one down in the right corner), and at least one should be layered. The picture is taken in Palma, Mallorca at the Pl. Espanya.

Ania says...

That woman says a lot of things; she knows how to express herself! I find it both funny and inspirational to read her blog.
But this time she has a challenge over at Minneriket called "Ania says...."
And this is what she said: Use 2 patterned paper, 1 carton, 2 stickers/stamps, 3D foam, 3 buttons or flowers and 4 ribbons.
I choose 1 sticker (eg. "glansbilde") and 1 stamp. Used patterned paper from LovElsie and KI memories.
