Finally!

I haven't blogged for 6 or 7 weeks. And during these weeks I've barely scrapped. I seem to be in a bad slump. I've made a couple of LOs for Skissedilla, but not submitted them. Hmmm... I don't know, maybe it's time to pack up all my stuff for a while and wait for the itch to create to come back. I sure would be nice to have a "normal" bedroom. I guess I'll give it a week or two more...
I did make a LO for last week's sketch at Skissedilla, I guess that's #73

Wild Orchid Challenge

Go check out this candy to announce the launch of the new Wild Orchid Challenge blog! The challenges will all be based around using embellishments on your cards, so you don’t have to be a stamper to take part. The first challenge starts on Monday 12th July, only 5 days from now!
I'm not much of a stamper myself so maybe I can actually join in every now and then...
But enter challenges or not, I sure do hope I win this awesome lot of gorgeousness!

For Skissedilla's sketch # 54

Love staying home for the holidays! I'm getting so much scrapping done!

Just finished this for Skissedilla's sketch #54. Title means something like "Easter artistic creativity"... or something. It doesn't really make any sense in either language, but then again that's the beauty of artistic liscence, isn't it?



I've noticed that most "scrappy bloggers" put up a tools and product list at the end of their posts... is there really any need for me to do this? I mean, I'm not submitting anything... and half the time I have no idea what I'm actually using!
Opinions appreciated!

For ScrappeHuset's "Månedens inspirator"

This was the photo to be inspired by:




And obviously I was inspired by the colors!:



Journaling about how I love getting little "love notes" from my husband on SMS. =)

For Skissedilla's sketch # 53

Made this without a photo just because I thought the image was so cool. It's actually a wine bottle label from a bottle of wine you wouldn't think was very good, but was!

For Skissedilla's sketch # 52

"Glee". For Skissedilla's sketch #52.
A very simple LO this time with a rather unconventional color for a little dude: Periwinkle!



He really does have the most wonderful laugh, this one!

For Skissedilla's sketch # 49

Another last minute LO for Skissedilla. I actually started this one last Sunday and left it sitting on my desk the whole week.Which usually means it'll never get done. So now I'm pretty proud of myself!

Photos taken by D's cousin Sarah's boyfriend, Kent
This was right after the 2009 Thanksgiving dinner at Dwight and Donna's house. It's always such a huge meal, it's nice to try and walk some of it off.

For Pencil Lines' sketch #168

Made for Pencil Lines' sketch #168. Title is in Norwegian and it says "Julebrev", which means Christmas letter. This was the photo I used for this year's Christmas "cards" and the notes in both Norwegian and English.

For Skissedilla's sketch # 43

Made this with a photo altered in Photoshop by my MIL. For Skissedilla's sketch #43.

For Scrappehuset's "Ønske-challenge"

This is for the sketch over at Scrappehuset that has to contain the word "ønske" or wish in some way:

Some ATCs

I call this set "How Vera Jacobson and her three daughters made it through the hard times of war". =)
Tradesies anyone?
