November MLS kit

It's about time I post again!! Had a rough week, my little car died on Thursday :-( hopefully it can be fixed. Hoped I had some money left over this month to put with my savings for a SLR camera, but am afraid it now has to go somewhere else.

Had some good times too, playing with the November kit from Memory Lane. Loved the combinations of these papers with some Hambly. The other girls made amazing things too, you can have a look at their creations here.

Layout was made according to the sketch Nicole made for last months Memory Lane NewsLetter.

Thanks for visiting!

Time flies...

when you are having fun... cannot believe the holidays are almost here...

Did quite a lot of scrapping these past few days mostly Christmas related stuff I'll show you later on this month.

This layout was made for last months MLS DT challenge. DD with one of her friends on one of the few summer days we had this year. The "dirty" in the tittle is because that is what they were (you can't tell from this photo) but they rubbed themselves with dirt ;-))

In my enthusiasm I forgot to write down what papers were in the kit, as soon as I remember I'll let you know ;-)) Other supplies used: American Craft thickers eggnog, a bingo card, clear buttons, some ribbon, a 7 gypsie stamp, paper from an old children's book, a flower, doodlebug letter stickers and posca pens for outlining.

This card was made with some scraps, same paper as layout above ;-)) prima flowers, a button and an autumn leaves stamp on craft paper.

Thanks for visiting, see you soon!

October already...

that means our September DT assignments for Memory Lane have been posted. We received some stunning papers this time with a theme that was really challenging... Wonder Woman

Wonder woman Comic papers, AC craft thickers, Heidi Swap gost letter, clear buttons, red rick rack ribbon, posca pens, paintdabbers and some dymotape.

Next project of this month was made on a little 20 x 20 cm canvas papers are by Scenic Route, AC thickers, paintdabbers, poscapens, dymotape and paperglaze.

Last week we welcomed a new DT member at MLS, Natasja, this lady makes beautiful creations, you can see them at her blog.

We will have some more news for you soon... in the mean time check out the Dutch Dare blog, for a new challenge.... and some more inspiration!!

Dare time again...

Dutch Dare # 20 is online! We had a very talented guest designer this time.

The challenge was to use the lyrics (in anyway you wanted to) of one of her favorite songs by Elton John; Don't let the sun go down on me.

Had to think hard, but finally came op with this, also inspired by 7-7-7 pointed out to me on Angelique's blog (I know I am late ;-)), but in this case you can never be too late. So here is my take at the dare. The other girls have been very creative too, and made some stunning layouts, you can see them here.

Last months Memory Lane challenges was FUN! I loved making these cards, and to judge by the amount of cards on the MLS site so did the other girls. Want to see their beautiful creations, click here.

We got to use some of the gorgeous colorful Tinkering Ink papers and (one of my current favorites :-) Autumn Leaves stamps.

Thanks for visiting, see you soon!

Of last months Memory Lane's challenge

Memory Lane Projects May

Yep, I am still here ;-)

Have been a busy bee lately. Our house is for sale since last week and I have been cleaning most of my spare time (tips on how to keep your house clean with a five year old are more then welcome ;-))

In between work, cleaning and social occupations I did manage to squeeze out a few projects. I will show you two projects today which I made for the Memory Lane DT challenge of may.

We received some great items again last month, a huge MDF letter made by Make Me, some romantic Daisy D papers and sweet ribbons. The wallhanger is made after an idea of Corinne Delis as seen in a Dutch scrapmagazine.

It took me quit some time to figure out what to do with this big letter, but now I think I need more LOL.

I have some great ideas in my head with these letters for my new scraproom.

I could not help myself from using some gorgeous Hambly, foam Thickers and happy bloomers on the projects too. All these products are available here.

The DT girls made some amazing projects, if you'd like to see you can have a look here.

The next Dutch Dare will be online tomorrow, we have a very talented guestdesigner again ... she loves anything with wings, curious? Check the Dutch Dare blog tomorrow!

You Made Me Complete

Feels like I haven't been very creative lately :-( Had some busy weeks and some more to come...

I did create this layout a few weeks ago for the DT challenge of April for Memory Lane. It was made with a kit of beautiful Autumn Leaves papers theme for the month was "Mother". All materials used you can find here. Curious what the other girls made with it? Take a look here.

Hope to be back soon with some more creativity to share, wishing you all a good week!

Something old, something new...

Always check the sale section of your scrapbook store... I do... Whenever placing an order for some new goodies I always check the sales section too. Very often you can buy some papers or embellishments for almost half the price... , they might not be new, but can for sure be used for a fun project! This little hart shaped (and more shapes) booklet is from Memory Lane, I used some old BG papers from their sales section to "dress" it and finally used up some of my own old stash too LOL (which was about time). It was fun using something old and something new.

MLS Desingteam assignment Februari...

This is the lo I made for the assignment of the Memory Lane desingteam for February. The assignment was to scrap a secret love, to use felt, buttons and Autumn Leaves paper. I misunderstood the secret love part and scrapped a picture of an old love instead ;-)) I found this picture in the attic and needed to do something with it, as you might understand from the song lyrics Vincent is no longer among us. The picture was taken by Vincents father who is a professional photographer. Don't worry, it wasn't painful scrapping this photo, I am just glad I did.

The other girls made great lo's for this challenge... want to see them?? They'll be here soon!

OK, a lighter subject... last Sunday I went to the desingteam lunch... had a great, little bit chaotic, day and finally got to meet Danielle, Daphne, Monique, Angelique, Mandy, Martine and Nicole. Nice to meet you girls!! Hope to meet Charlotte and Francine next time. Yes, NEXT time, Danielle just asked me to stay, thanks girl!!!
