Bella Rouge

Only way to get some Bella Rouge paper here in Norway was to buy the 12x12 stack and that is a lot of paper...

Here is one layout and a card with the collection from Pink Paislee.

17 grader i vannet

I think the temperature was around 17 degrees this early summerday in the middle of May this year. I wouldn't even consider getting my toes wet, but the kids loved it. I played with some Pink Paislee - the Solstice collection. A favorite summer collection this year.

Noen layout blir visst bare liggende og denne layouten er en sånn som har blitt liggende ublogget siden juni. Tror jeg har rundt 20 layouter som ikke er publisert..... Så selv om bloggen ikke er så superaktiv så skjer det mye bak kulisssene....

Scrap around the world - October challenge

It's time for challenge SIX - 6 at  Scrap Around The World Challenge, hosted by Design Team member Jessy Christopher from Malaysia!

Here is my layout








We had over 70 entries last month so we are looking forward to another bumper month before the festive season kicks in!!

Last month we made some IMPORTANT RULE CHANGES so if you haven't checked them out yet please look HERE.





Feel free to interpret the mood board in any way you like, using one image, several of them, all of them or even just one aspect of an image, using ANY COLOURS! Please do let us know HOW YOU WERE INSPIRED!!

For example:- You could use fresh, clean colours like white, pale blue,yellow, pink, mint green & gold. Patterns such as florals/leafy foliage together with images of birds, flowers, chevrons & polka-dots! There are elements of vintage mixed in with modern; doilies, airy lace designs,pretty bows & clashing colours, shapes and prints. Circles, checks, stripes - this board is all about eclectic combinations!

There's an air of nostalgia mixed in with the uber-modern images too.This could prompt you to scrap about different generations, life as it was then & how it is now, or simply outdoor memories inspired by the botanical prints. This board evokes images of purity, beauty &  femininity,with a touch of romance &  homely peace &comfort.
