Two christmas cards

2011-11-22T12:55:00.000+01:00

Henger fremdeles med :)

2011-09-09T11:12:00.000+02:00

Det er nå klart for semifinaler i Scrappeduellen og jeg har kommet meg gjennom to runder med disse LOene. :) Kjempemorsomt å være med igjen!

"Happiness" var en lift av Karen Russel, mens den doble LOen er et resultat av et inspirasjonbilde samt et krav om å bruke blonder. :)

På andre runde i Scrappeduellen fikk vi en skisse vi skulle scrappe og det resulterte i denne siden her. Vel, den ser noe bedre ut i virkeligheten, linjene er iallefall beine, men det virker som at kameraet "bøyer" litt på LOen.. :(

Selv om mitt hovedmål med scrappingen er å ha bildene i fokus, syntes jeg ikke at jeg fikk det helt til med denne her. Men i album har den iallefall kommet.

Jeg vil anbefale alle med kort avstand til sjøen å skaffe seg en kajakk, DET er terapi det (og i tillegg veldig god trening for armene) ;)

~ Skoften ~

2011-08-19T17:40:00.002+02:00

Noe av det vanskeligste jeg vet er å få tatt ordentlige bilder av LOene, og jeg synest heller ikke at scanneren gir et så godt resultat. Jeg forsøker inne, ute, i dagslys, med og uten blits.. tja.. Så dersom noen kan gi meg noen tips til hvordan man iallefall får det hvite til å være hvitt så er jeg utrolig takknemlig for det. :)

Da var jeg kommet til min siste feriedagen og jeg har egentlig ikke fått gjort så mye som jeg var tenkt. Men nå skal jeg iallefall få kommet meg ut og få resten av hekken ned i jorda før den gir opp og visner.

Til denne LOen har jeg brukt en skisse fra Cathy Zielske som jeg falt helt for. Ja og bakgrunnsarket er mye grønnere enn bildet viser.. :(

~ Destination Athens ~

2011-08-16T14:36:00.002+02:00

DA har jeg sittet et par dager og sortert, ryddet, flyttet, gledet og ergret meg over layoutene mine. Jeg er ikke særlig flink til å se i albumene som jeg har laget og jeg har funnet grunnen til det. Jeg har vært altfor glad i å scrappe "bildet" og for lite flink til å scrappe "historia". Og det finnes ikke noe kjedeligere enn å se et bilde av et ansikt med overskrifta "Tivoli" og that's it! Er jeg heldig så har jeg satt på en dato..

Så jeg har fundert frem og tilbake, vil jeg virkelig ha albumene fulle av "crap" som jeg er misfornøyd med? Jeg har også vært dårlig til å skrive tekst på layoutene, dels fordi jeg ikke liker håndskrifta mi og dels fordi jeg ikke er den største skribenten. Ikke bare det, MEN jeg har scrappa samme bildet/bildene maaange ganger, og uten tekst? Jah.. begredelig..

Så nå har jeg rydda med hard hånd, kasta - ja faktisk - kasta en del av mine miserable prosjekter som ikke fortjener å stå i album og bli vist frem, og begynner herved et nytt og bedre scrappeliv. :)

Det positive, for å nevne det, var at de aller fleste LOene var plassert i en eller annen album, (merkelig) få lå slengt rundt omkring. Jeg har sikkert, heldigvis, hatt et eller annet form for ryddeprosjekt før jeg gikk inn i scrappedvalen.

Jeg har alltid vært fascinert av C&S og de som behersker den teknikken, og har tidligere hatt noen forsøk på det selv. Men nå håper jeg på at C&S heller blir regelen fremfor unntaket og går nå inn for å scrappe minner og historier som både jeg og andre vil ha glede av senere. Den som inspirerer meg mest nå om dagen er Ingunn (Smultringunn) med sine fantastisk flotte bilder og enkle og nydelige layouter.

Uansett, dette ble iallefall resultatet av mitt "første" prosjekt, som også er et bidrag til første oppgave av Scrappeduellen på Scrapbookexpress.

~ Kort 20 x 8cm ~

2011-08-03T22:57:00.000+02:00

Nå er jeg virkelig i siget, to kort på to dager *flink* ;B Vi får håpe det ikke bare er ett blaff. Neste bøyg blir å lage en layout, for jeg SKAL lage noen sider både fra Londonturen i fjor høst og turen til Athen i mai i år.

Denne gangen har jeg brukt norske mønsterark, fra Papirdesign. De har så utrolig mange flotte ark.

~ Stjernekort ~

2011-08-02T20:19:00.000+02:00

Jeg har forsøkt meg på et stjernekort etter en tutorial jeg fant på youtube for jeg syntes at bretteteknikken var så stilig. Og det var heller ikke så veldig vanskelig. For de som ikke vil se filmen, men likevell gjøre et forsøke så har jeg laget en template som du kan finne litt lengre ned i innlegget. Mønsterpapirene er fra Basic Grey mens pynten er sånn jeg fant i "diverse"-eska mi. :)

~ Lerret ~

2010-10-31T14:37:00.004+01:00

Etter snart to år i huset er fremdeles mange av veggene tomme. Dette bildet laget jeg for en stund siden, men jeg har enda ikke funnet noen plass til det. Det ligger vel egentlig an til å bli en julegave da. :)

I all enkelhet så har jeg brukt gesso, maling og stemplet med bl.a bølgepapp og bobleplast. Blomsterranka er vel fra Prima.

CASAkjendis :-)

2010-10-19T19:12:00.010+02:00

Jeg er så heldig å få være CASAkjendis hos CASAkreativ for oktober. Det er jo utrolig koselig å vite at man ikke er 'glemt' selv om man ikke er så produktiv som man var før, samt å vite at man fremdeles inspirerer. :) Her kan du lese mere.

Alle disse LOene har vært vist frem i bloggen min tidligere, så for å se flere og større bilder så er det bare å bla seg bakover. Det er også en konkurranse på gang hos CASAkreativ, LOen som heter 'If you blink, she will grow' skal liftes og premien er selvfølgelig malen på minialbumet rett under her. :)

Minialbum

2010-10-16T13:35:00.006+02:00

Minialbum som gave til jul?

Jeg selger malen til disse minialbumene for kr 200,- pr stk. Den består av 6 sider, derav to sider med beskrivelser og bilder, 3 sider med selve malene og en side med diverse skisser til hjelp.

Da dette er en julegave også, kan jeg ikke vise frem sidene inni enda da jeg mistenker at 'noen' driver og snoker her inne. ;)

Jeg har brukt mønsterpapirer fra Basic Grey; Cappella.

Ta kontakt på e-post beasolem{at}online.no

~ Minialbum ~

2010-09-14T20:10:00.005+02:00

Det er alltid like moro å prøve noe nytt som man har tenkt på lenge. Dette minialbumet har jeg laga malen på selv, men vet til neste gang at det er plass til mange mange flere sider. Det var iallefall utrolig gøy å lage og jeg har allerede begynt på et nytt.

De som skal på scrappetreffet i Kristiansund i slutten av måneden har sjangsen til å være med å lage et slikt. :)

Staffelikort

2010-09-11T16:24:00.006+02:00

Fant en flott mal på et kort her på StampARTic. Samtidig så hadde jeg fått i oppdrag å lage et dåpskort, så da ble det nokså enkelt. Jeg har brukt papirer fra Melissa Frances og ellers ting og tang som jeg har hatt liggende og ikke husker hva heter lenger.

"Endelig førsteklassing!" Ooo, jeg scrapper igjen :)

2010-08-26T12:41:00.006+02:00

Nedtellingen gikk sakte men sikkert, plutselig var dagen kommet.
Da har jeg 'nok en gang' startet på et ny album hvor plana er å lage noen sider for hvert klassetrinn frem til 10.klasse, med ei framside hvor jeg har ett bilde fra hvert år. Jeg valgte lettersize og C&S-stil for dette prosjektet. :)

Invitasjoner

2010-04-01T21:21:00.018+02:00

Jeg fant en bretteteknikk på nettet som jeg ikke hadde prøvd før, og det er jo alltid like spennende. Dagen etter fikk jeg forespørsel om å lage invitasjoner til min bestefars 80 årsdag og da var det ikke vanskelig å bestemme meg for hvordan de skulle se ut. Jeg tok meg litt vann over hodet iforhold til at det ble så mange lag, men kom da i mål tilslutt og bestefar ble veldig fornøyd. :)Mønsterarkene er fra Prima, ellers så har jeg bare brukt et stempel fra Ladybug and Friends, bång og stempelpute.

Det var godt å komme igang igjen, for nok en gang har jeg hatt en ufrivillig scrappepause. Men nå er rommet igjen rydda og det dukka opp mange "nye" ting. :) Så det spørs om det ikke blir tilbrakt litt mere tid på scrapperommet nå i nærmeste fremtid. Da vil jeg bare ønske dere alle en riktig fin påske!

Omsider noe nytt ifra meg :)

2010-02-02T19:34:00.004+01:00

Om knappe 14 dager er det stortreff i Molde og jeg har sagt ja til å holde kurs, denne gangen i diverse bakgrunnsteknikker. Vi skal grise med gesso og maling så det blir gøy! Påmeldinga er i gang, se her for mere info og flere kurs å velge mellom.

Jeg gleder meg kjempemasse, for et så stort treff har jeg aldri vært på før!! :)

Sånn typisk meg-stil, så ble denne layouten til ved at jeg først laget bakgrunnen, for så å finne et bilde som passet til fargene. Jeg tror faktisk den uvanen er umulig å vende. At det ble en BOM er en tilfeldighet, men det skal bli greit å få noen flere sider også i den albumen. :)

Ikke pepperkakehus i år, men pepperkakeBORG! :)

2009-12-14T21:35:00.003+01:00

Jepp, i år ble det endelig pepperkakeborg! Nesten litt imponert over meg selv, at jeg fikk det til. Noe skakt og skeift er det, men det skal det være. Jeg har ikke rukket å få pynta det enda, men det skal nok bli før jul skal dere se :) Dette var faktisk mitt første egenproduserte "byggverk", tidligere har jeg bare kjøpt slike enkle hus på butikken.

Ønsker dere alle en riktig fin førjulstid :)

En av mine LOer er publisert i e-magasinet ScrapStreet!

Min layout "Why kids laugh" er publisert i Novemberutgaven av e-magasinet ScrapStreet. Ta en titt her på hjemmesiden. Min side finner dere på side 55, direktelinken finner dere her.

How to be efficient in scrapbooking

2009-09-28T20:40:00.006+02:00

Kristine Nordrik wrote an article for the Creative Pages at Papirgleder, and it's about how to be efficient in scrapbooking. Sometimes we just want to tell the story without using so much "brain capasity" and this is a great idea of how to. Using the same layout several times is not a bad idea.

I made a double page for her article and I have used the same layout/sketch, as you can see I just turned it up side down.

Supplies: papers from Kaiserkraft.

I also won 3ndy papirs summer contest. :) Thank you very much Gudrun and Lene! Can't wait to get the award for that.

~ Joy ~

2009-09-10T21:02:00.002+02:00

Another layout from the article at Papirgleders Creative pages. I just painted the background yellow, and used some "other" stamps, like bubble plast (is that the correct word??).

Other supplies: mask from Heidi Swapp, glimmer mist and black ink.

Template - fold card

2009-09-08T20:35:00.005+02:00

To those of you who wondered and still wonders, this is the template i've used for the card below.

Thanks for all the nice comments. :)

A fold card

2009-09-06T14:04:00.002+02:00

A friend of mine wondered if I could make her a wedding card earlier this week and ofcouse I couldn't say no to that, even though I usually don't make a lot of cards. I found a beautiful picture of the bride and groom on facebook (hipp hurray for facebook), then I usen this link to make the picture "old".

Supplies: papers from Kaisercraft, various flowers, heart pearls, laces, stamps from i.e Papirgleder.

Our newest family member

2009-09-03T21:28:00.005+02:00

A little kittykitty!! He has got the norwegian name Spinnvill which means a bit crazy. And it sure fits.

~ Store forventninger ~

2009-09-01T19:44:00.007+02:00

En av layoutene jeg laget til artikkelen om å være kreativ med dine egne bakgrunner på Kreative Sider. Her har jeg lekt meg med gesso og maling.

One of the layouts I made for the article about beeing creatice with your own backgrounds at Creative Pages. I've been messing with gesso and painting.

Og som seg hør og bør er det selvfølgelig laget en konkurranse der jeg ønsker å se deres hjemmelagde bakgrunner. Ta en titt i forumet.

Vi utfordrer dere herved til å bli inspirert av artikkelen om å lage sine egne bakgrunner som nettopp ble publisert. Den kan dere se her.

Dere står veldig fritt til hva dere vil scrappe, det kan for eksempel være en layout, kort, minialbum, art journal eller noe annet. Eneste kravet er at vi må se at det bærer preg av å ha egenproduserte bakgrunnsark. Skriv gjerne noen ord om hvordan du har laget det. Alle formater er lov, men data-LOer er ikke lov.

Bidragene sendes til meg på epost beasolem{at}online.no, og så legger jeg ut en anonym avstemning i galleriet når fristen er ute.

Frist: Søndag 6.september kl 21.00, så dere har bare en uke på dere!! (husk å beregne to dager "produksjon" om dere har planer om å bruke gesso)

Dere kan levere så mange bidrag dere vil.

Gleder meg til å se hva dere får til!!!

New article at Papirgleder's creative pages

2009-08-30T17:11:00.011+02:00

Translated: be creative with you own backgrounds. I've been playing with i.e. painting, gesso, stamps etc and making my own background. Had almost too much fun! It's in norwegian, so for those of you who doesn't understand that language, I'll transelate parts of it here in my blog when I publish the layouts here. Kreative Sider.

Og som det seg hør og bør er det selvfølgelig konkurranse. Se forumet til Papirgleder.no for mere info. Frist: søndag 6.september kl. 21.00.

2009-08-11T13:02:00.011+02:00

I'm working on an article for Papirgleder about how to be creative with your own-produced backgrounds. If you want to know how I made this you need to follow Kreative Sider. I recommend you take a look at that page now and then anyway, and see all the incredible articles who is already there. The article will be in norwegian, but I'll try to translate it into english here in my blog, at least parts of it.

3ndy papirs sommerkonkurranse

2009-08-04T22:07:00.004+02:00

I ferien har man ikke tid til å scrappe, men nå som den er over har man plutselig masser av tid og energi til sånn. Merkelig.. Her er iallefall en layout jeg har laget til 3ndy papirs sommerkonkurranse. Nå hadde jeg bare noen ark igjen av julekolleksjonen deres, men håper likevell at den blir godkjent som en "sommerLO". :)

Sitatet jeg har brukt er av William Shakespeare og lyder som det her;
"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall Death brag thou wand'rest in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So ling lives this, and this gives life to thee."

Ellers så har jeg brukt stempel (Love) av Heidi Swapp og perler fra KaiserCraft, stort mere er det ikke, jo en liten blomst en og rub-on.

Nydelige stempler fra Ladybug and Friends

2009-07-31T15:37:00.006+02:00

Sjekk ut disse nye stemplene fra Ladybug and Friends! De er bare dødslekre! Og ja, det er clearstamps. Send en e-post til butikk@papirgleder.no hvis du ønsker å forhåndsbestille dem. De blir levert sent august/tidlig september. De kommer på ca. A5 plate og koster kr. 259,- pr plate. Stemplene kommer også etterhvert en og en, så anbefaler de som liker dem til å kjøpe full plate da det er mange penger å spare. Den kan også forhåndsbestilles i nettbutikken, men da må de også forhåndsbetales.

Finally!

2009-07-22T18:36:00.011+02:00

I don't know what's taken so long, but my scrapbook-room is now finally ready and I've moved in. :) Went to IKEA this Monday and bought the rest of the furnitures, so now it's done. Just some small things which are still missing, but that will come. You see I have two "areas", one for just scrapbooking (almost two meter long table), and one for the computer/printer/scanner etc. And also a lot of storage, and more will come.

I also made a layout right after I "moved in". :) It is for this weeks One Little Word contest, were the word is "why". A word that comes out of my 5year olds mouth all the time by the way, and probably every other child as well.

Papers and embellishment from Prima Marketing, Jillibean Soup and Making Memories.

I wish you all a great summer, I just started my summer holiday.

Skissedilla # 10

2009-06-03T16:36:00.002+02:00

My first shot for a sketch at the norwegian sketch-blog Skissedilla. I really liked the sketch this time (you can see it below, so I figured I'd give it a try. Haven't made a layout by a sketch in a really long time, been having trouble with it.

Yea, and I was challenged to use some more colours (someone mean my layouts are boring??) *lol* , and I agree. :) Papers from Basic Grey and Ladybug and Friends.

Organizing my layouts - part 1

2009-05-31T23:44:00.004+02:00

I have been thinking about it several times, been giving it a shot more than one time before, given up sometimes, changed how I wanted to organize them a couple of times.... You are probably thinking, been there, done that! So why don't you join me in this comprehensive project?

This is almost every layout I've made since I started scrapbooking in the beginning of 2007. I haven't counted them, don't think I will, don't think I dare. I just know there's a lot of money in these piles:)

In the beginning I put them into albums by date, had two postbound albums, and it was okay because I didn't have so many layouts. Then I bought some more albums, changed my system into one album with vintage layouts (AND chronological of course) and other albums to other styles. But since my first layouts was a mess of styles, and that I made mostly vintage pages that didn't work out how I wanted to. Went back to chronological again, but have then gotten so many layouts I had to few albums. Bought some more albums, D-ring, didn't fit with the rest. Crashed with me freakin' head. Took all the layouts out of their albums, put them into some piles and that's how I've "organized" them ever since. The actually problem all this time is too little storage for the pages. BUT, now I've finally decided (really decided this time) to spend a lot of money on albums, and to get some kind of system on that, once for all, AND make it as good and simple as possible, that it will be easy to just put the layouts into correct albums as soon as their done. Well, at least I have a hope.

To make it more simple I have decided to just have the D-ring albums from American Crafts (not light blue). I really like them, both the albums and the page protectors, and also; they have a great assortment. It's easy to move around the pages in contrast to the postbound albums.

While doing this "project" I noticed some things that repeated.

- More than once I really thought "wow, was a really satisfied with this layout when I made it?" Some of them seemed like they were made in a hurry. Not complete, missed a story, couldn't quite remember the story. That I felt sorry about. Because it's nothing like looking into the albums together with my daughter and telling her what it says.

- Another thing I regret is not being very clever using journaling on my layouts. It relates very much to the first point here. Often it's just a headline, maybe two or three lines with something like place and date. That is my biggest priority in the future, cause I like best the pages with journaling. I can look at the pictures on my computer if I want to. The story needs to come out on the layout.

- Another thing, I kind of thought that I have been good on writing the dates on the layouts, which I have NOT!!! So I now need to go through all the pictures on my computer and find out what time the pictures are taken. (kinda figured out the year by myself..) If you think you will remember, you think wrong. Big mistake number 1. Write it down, if not on the front, use the back. Just an advice if you are planning on organize them chronological one time in the future. :) Probably getting a hell of a job now (not looking forward to that job..)

- I liked to see my development/ how I've changed from when I started scrapbooking. I always used bazzil as background, combined with one or two patterned paper, headline, and a number of photos. It was as simple as that, often made out of a sketch. Now it is totally different. But very funny to see.

- Very few double layouts. But since I've decided to buy D-ring albums that won't be my biggest priority. I think it's very great to see double pages in postbound albums, but I don't enjoy it just as much in the D-ring albums.

- I can do a better job using more photos on each layout to tell a whole story, eventually make a double page.

- Scrapping the same photo several times is BORING to look at (even thought there are pictures that are more fun scrappin more that once, i'll try to resist that tempation in the future), AND combined with the missing journaling that was BIG mistake number 2.

- It is so much more fun shopping for papers and flowers than it is spending money on albums, big mistake number 3 (learned my lesson now, can afford both *lol*).

This is what I've figured out so far:
D-ring albums from american Crafts, haven't decided colours yet. Or if I should buy everyone in the same colour. That's a bit risky if they stop producing them. I think I will end up with those "cloth" albums. Leather albums is ofcourse the dream, but the price is a bit to much when I'm planning to buy 10 albums right now.
Most of the layouts I will store chronological, but I will also have an own album for for example my BOM, family etc. Please give me ideas.

If you have some more ideas, tip or will join me in this project please just write a comment. There is probably many things I've not thought of.

Happy birthday to my little sister!

2009-05-24T15:22:00.019+02:00

Who is turning 19 today!!

Congratulation! I made a layout to her (along with something else ofcourse), it's a picture of her and her boyfriend. Doesn't they look cute. :) Well, I hope she's not in here peaking, because she dosn't know about it yet.

So happy birthday Idun!! :)

This time I also used papers from My Minds Eye - BellaBella. As said, well used money, just love those papers. The sewing machine was used a lot. Other embellishment come from Melissa Frances, Prima, Making memories, glimmermist etc etc. I found out I had more "stæsj" that I knew of. :)

Well, back to work tomorrow, I hope you all had a great weekend!

And if you leave a comment I will visit your blog to, I need some more inspiration now. I wish you all e nice sunday!

Some "old" news

2009-04-20T17:21:00.005+02:00

In january/february I was asked by a store in New Zealand to be featured as a "star" in their competition called "Stars in Their Eyes". I said yes, but could not make anything new for them at that moment, but that was ok. I was very honoured to be among scrapbookers as Emily Falconbridge, Kelly Goree and Joleene Pienaar, and to see other scrapbookers copying "my" style.

Thanks for the opportunity Adrienne and Pauline!

Vintage again :)

2009-04-19T19:45:00.008+02:00

Back to my style, vintage and scalloped edges :)

In this photo you can see my daughter and my older sister. Simone is probably just one and a half year or something here. Time flies.. She turned five this february. And that probably means I'm getting older aswell, doesn't it?!

I've used papers from Cosmo Cricket, embellishment from Prima, Cosmo Cricket, American Crafts (thickers) and Making Memories. Some close-up photos. You can see the photos in a larger view by clicking on them.Thanks for visiting my blog and all the heartwarming comments. In between painting the house and working a lot more than 100% I'll try to visit yours to.

Finally a new layout from me

2009-01-19T21:03:00.005+01:00

I thought I would have so much spare time when we had moved in, but I was wrong. My job takes a 100% and more, and since the house is not totally finished, that's always on my mind. But tonight I just had to use my creativity so I made this layout.

The paper is from Basic Grey, prima flowers, embellishment from Melissa Frances, MM and Prima.

Just click on the images for larger views. I'm really thankful that a lot of you leaves so sweet comments in my blog, unfortunately I don't have time to visit yours, yet, but when I get the time I will.

Happy New Year everyone!

2009-01-01T00:21:00.003+01:00

I've been out trying to photograph some firework, but it wasn't much of a success. 10 minutes at the internett is not enough when you don't know how to adjust your camera manually. (And I never caught the really good ones either) So I think I'll spend 2009 to improve my camera skills. ;) I'll sure have time for that next year.

I just wanted to wish you all a Happy New Year!

Another published layout

2008-12-09T18:14:00.004+01:00

This layout I made when I was in Bergen together with the designteam of Papirgleder. It has been published in a norwegian scrapbook magazine called Vi Scrapper. The papers are from Basic Grey - Periphery and MM (note-paper).

Some close-ups:
The picture is of me and our daughter this summer when we were playing outside in the sun.

Flower from Prima. Rub-ons from My Minds Eye.

Cracle paint, embellishment from Melissa Frances ant Tim Holtz

Title and journaling is from Making Memories.

Still got the chicken pox, but I'm feeling better now. Will be back to work on monday next week so now I'll just rest and get well.

Julekalender på Kreative Sider

2008-12-05T14:16:00.007+01:00

Dere bør absolutt ta turen innom Kreative Sider i disse førjulsdager. Vi i designteamet legger hver dag ut inspirasjon til dere. I dag er det min artikkel om å lage tags ved hjelp glimmermist som er bak luka. Ta gjerne en titt ved å trykke på bildet eller her. :)

I just wrote an article about making christmastags with glimmermist. It's in norwegian, but you can see it here.

You probably know that we are building a house, and with the christmas and all coming up it, me getting chicken pox is just perfect! NOT *angrysmiley*. So now I'm just lying here on the couch or in my bed hoping it will pass soon.

Reneè!!!

2008-12-01T22:51:00.003+01:00

Jeg tror du er sprø Reneè!! Se hva som dumpet nedi postkassa mi på lørdag da!! En fantastisk fyrstikkjulekalender som vesla ble superduper glad for altså!! Gurimalla!! Jeg har hatt sååå lyst til å lage en sånn til henne selv også, men det var den tiden jeg ikke hadde da. I helga har vi jobbet i huset 24/7, så dette var en veldig hyggelig overraskelse!! Ikke bare det, den var attpåtil fylt opp med gaver!!!

Du er super altså!! Besøk gjerne bloggen hennes her! :)

Round Robin

I can't even remember what time I made this layout, but I know it's a long time ago. I've never participated in Round Robin before, but it was quite fun to finally see what the other Design Members had made. You can see all the contributions here at Kreative Sider.

Some detail photos. Please just click on the images for larger views. This beach is close by where we are building our house. :) We just have to cross the road.

**************************************************************************

Og så over til prosjekt; hus! Her er altså det som skal bli vårt nye bo. Til jul håper vi å være inne, og nå som både kjøkken og flisleggere har kommet så ser det lovende ut.

Vi har bare tapetsering igjen på stue, vaskerom og ett soverom. Gulv blir lagt på de fleste rom iløpet av uka, og til helga skal vi skru kjøkken, som selvfølgelig kommer fra IKEA. :)

Dette bildet er fra stua og utsikta vår, lekker ja?! :)

Det er fint å ha både små og store hjelpere. Her pusser Simone veggen før vi skal tapetsere kjøkkenet. Etterpå tegnet hun på gulvet :)

Her har vi akkurat tapetsert kjøkkenet vårt.

Dette skal bli scrapperom/kontor. Det er riktignok en stund siden dette bildet ble tatt, nå er dette rommet både tapetsert og malt igjen. Det er vel en 12-13 m2 så det er nok plass til scrappesakene. :)

Og et lite stemningsbilde til slutt. Dette er tatt innefra så bildet er ikke så veldig bra.

I'm making my own backgrounds

2008-11-01T20:40:00.003+01:00

Painting is always fun, and especially together with our daughter. She's 4 years old and is finishing her first layout at this moment. :)

Supplies: bazzil, biblepage, paint, prima stamps, thickers, glimmer mist and tulle.

~ Imagine ~

2008-10-25T14:43:00.010+02:00

Long time, no updates! And there is a reason ofcourse, we are building a house and I work a lot of overtime at the moment. So no time for scrapbooking. :( Last weekend I went to Trondheim to order our kitchen at IKEA, and Tove asked me to stay at their house. We are both it the DesignTeam of Papirgleder. Thanks alot Tove, had some great hours scrapping together with you! I started making this layout in Trondheim, but ofcourse I forgot to bring photos, did I say I was stessed?! Anyway, I got to finish it today so here it is.

The layout is for One Little Word's challenge this week, where the word this time is Imagine.

The beautiful papers is from Websters Pages, the biblepage actually is from a really old bible.

The big flower is ofcourse Prima, got three more packages in my mailbox today, yey! Thickers from American Crafts (platforms). The big diamant me
and Kristine found when we where in Bergen at a store called "Kremmerhuset". Just had to buy them!I've also used some tulle, needles with pearls, and some other embellishment. The minialphas are from Making Memories. Please just clik on the pictures for larger views.

Thank you for visiting my blog, feel free to leave a comment.

I also want to give a big thank you to those of you who went to my Vintage-scrapbooking course in Molde a couple of weeks ago. I sure picked up some ideas from you to. :)

Little dreamer

2008-10-11T22:53:00.011+02:00

Well it's not the best picture, but I'll take a new one when there is some daylight in here. More coming soon...

Finally bought some "tyll" what's the english word for that??! Tulle, thanks Nora. :)
Anyway, I love the effect of it, specially burned with a lighter, NB: it melts right away!

The papers are Rusty Pickle, just love them.

Jeg har også tatt avgjørelsen om å trekke meg som DT i ScrappeHuset. Dette pga. tidsmangel nå i perioden hvor vi holder på å bygge hus. Jeg vil takke for samarbeidet på Huset og ønske dere lykke til med de nye DTene. Er dere nyskjerrige på hvem det er så følg med på ScrappeHuset i morgen. Takk for meg.

Challenge - Yellow

2008-09-19T16:57:00.005+02:00

The designteam of Papirgleder have this thing going on to make things in different colours. This time I had to scrap a layout which was yellow. And OMG what a challenge for me! I don't think I've ever made a layout with more than a little bit yellow. Well, I gave it a shot and here is the result. You can see the article here (it's in norwegian).

I'm heading for Bergen to meet the other designers of Papirgleder in a couple of hours. Almost can't wait!! Well, have to start packing now, so bye bye!! :)

More than words

2008-09-16T17:41:00.003+02:00

Another article at ScrappeHuset! This time we have highlighted the norwegian scrapbooker Cathrine Angelica. She is a brilliant scrapbooker who gave us a challenge to make a vintagelayout with flowers and a songtitle as title.

I chose the song "more than words" of extreme because it's always been one of my favourites.

The paper is from Prima, thickers (again!) from American Crafts, flowers, tag from panduro and MM mini alphas.

~ Love ~

2008-09-13T12:22:00.013+02:00

Yea I made this for challenge #35 at One Little Word, and this time the word is, as you can see, LOVE. I finally got these beautiful big prima flowers from e-bay. Have been waiting for them a really long time, almost thought they'd never come. But finally they showed up in my mailbox.

The paper in the back is from Prima, but the round one I've cut out of an K&Company paper. The note-paper is from Hambly.

Please just click on the pictures for larger views.

I've also used some embellishment from Melissa Frances (white flowers an glitter-heart), 7gypsies wax and seals; LOVE, a tag from panduro, thickers from American Crafts (Platforms), Rub Ons from 7gypsies, letters are chalkboard stickers from Jenni Bowlin, and some charms (I love charms).

Yea, I think that's about it.

I want to thank everyone who uses an eksra minute to leave a comment. I always smile when I see that you have left a new comment. Thanks!

Wow, just found out that this layout is chosen to be the Layout Of The Day at the ScrapInStyle blog. Thanks!

Og nok en gang på stripa (uke 37), denne gangen valgt av Tessa 79, tusen takk. Her er hva hun skrev: Denne uka velger jeg meg beso, denne lo'en er full av detaljer og stemning. Det at bildet er i sort hvit gir det god fokus på bildet samtidig som det er en herlig ro på loen!

Ey!! I wont the One Little Word challenge with this layout. Just look here. :)

My first publication

2008-09-03T18:51:00.007+02:00

I made this a while ago, but I could not show it to you because it has been published in Vi Scrapper which is a Norwegian Scrapbooking Magazin. It is in fact my first publication.

Supplies: Paper from Basic Grey - Scarlet's letter - In the forest, Making Memories - Hillary Artisan Blue Die-Cut. I've used embellishment from Melissa Frances, Prima and som other which i don't know the name of. I've made the letters on the computer myself. The fonts name is 1942 Report. And then I just drew some lines on in paint.

I started by putting the Basic Grey paper on top of the Making Memories paper. Then I made stitches around the whole MM-paper and cut of the BG paper which was outside the MM paper. The flourish is cut out from the silhouette.

Please just clisk on the pictures for larger views.

Thanks for visiting my blog, please leave a comment so that I can visit yours.

A different kind of layout from me

2008-09-01T19:23:00.004+02:00

I made this for a new article at ScrappeHuset. It's a new kind of article where we choose a product and tell a little bit about it. For the first "product of the month" article, we chose American Crafts' thickers. Well known among scrapbookers all around the world and it's not without a reason. The are very adaptable to everything as they are to find in all kind of shapes and colours, and in different materials aswell. You can buy the in almost every store.

It was actually fun to make something non-vintage. :)

~ Vintage ~

2008-08-24T20:55:00.018+02:00

Min første artikkel for Papirgleder.no er nå i kveld blitt publisert på Kreative sider. Den er selvfølgelig om min favorittstil - vintage. Her kan du se hvordan man trinn-for-trinn kan lage noe som er i stilen vintage, samt en del bilder.

Jeg har brukt mønsterpapir fra 7gypsies, prima blomster, american crafts thickers, bling, blonde, binders, swirl skjært ut med silhouetten og diverse stempler.
Du kan lese mer på Kreative sider. Vær også med på utfordringen til denne konkurransen, den finner du her.

~ Art Journals ~

2008-08-24T00:38:00.004+02:00

I think I've found my new thing. I just wonder why I haven't seen this before? It's called Art Journals. I'm so happy that Åshild wanted to write an article about it to our blog ScrappeHuset so that everybody could see and learn what it is, because it's fantastic. You have to check it out. Every friday she gives everybody a new challenge, this time the theme is blowing on paint through a straw. Haven't done that since primary school I think.

Here is mine, my first Art Journal. But I swear, there will be more. On tuesday I will buy a book, just for Art Journal. Thank you again Åshild.

I strongly recommend you to visit Kreativ dagbok and ScrappeHuset (Their both in Norwegian) to learn something new and please join the challenge.

I'm on the Inspirational Team

2008-08-18T19:39:00.002+02:00

I almost can not belive it. Got an e-mail from Julie about an hour ago, asking me if I wanted to join the Inspirational Team! OMG I thought, It's always been one of my favorite inspiration blogs, and now I'm joining their team?! Wow, thank you Julie. I hope I wont disappoint you.

And to all of you who haven't visited the inspirational craftblog yet, you really should!

Playing football with my dad

2008-08-17T09:42:00.020+02:00

Our daugter loves to play football with her father. It is always filled with laughter and joy, for both of them. And it's a pleasure just to watch them play.

I've used papers from K&Company, they are fantastic. I've also used som newspaper, added with some white ink. The birds are from hambly overlay and I've burned the edges to give them a vintage look to. It's hard to see though. The flowers are from Bazzil and Prima. There is also a blonde on the layout, prima; say it in crystals, 7gypsies wax and seals, and thickers from American Crafts.

A new layout for {One Little Word} and RAK!

2008-08-01T18:24:00.020+02:00

Finally I'm home from our vacation, we've been 14 days at the Gran Canaria bathing, getting sunburned, drinking a little bit and having a great time together with my family. The temperature was between 30 and 40 degrees every day, 40 is a little bit to much I think. We came home this wednesday and I started working again at thursday, but I just had to to some scrapping yesterday. This is the result. It actually fit very well to the challenge at One Little Word.

I've used some stunning papers from Kimberly Poloson. Why haven't I heard about her papers before?! Just have to by som more of them I think. The metal flower inside the big flower is from Creative Imaginations, prima - say it in crystals, different embellishment from 7gypsies, thickers and pearls from American Crafts

{ Now } One Little Word

2008-07-11T23:52:00.014+02:00

I haven't been able so sit down and scrap this entire week so tonight I just had to. I looked into the challengeblog ~One Little Word~ and got an idea right away. The word is NOW. There has been so much sun lately so we've taken a lot of pictures, of our daughter ofcourse. Here she was picking some flowers and was totally in her own world, singing and talking to herself. Oh I adore her.

I can see the circle is not perfect.. :)

Supplies: the papers are Making Memories, the leaves I've cut out from a MM-paper. I've also used liquid pearls, stitches, thickers from American Crafts, charms from I-don't-know-where and primaflowers.

Just click on the images for larger views.

The journaling I've printed out from word, the font's name is Jane Austen.

Thank you for visiting my blog, you know I always appreciate a comment.

Denne LOen ble plukket ut til å være på stripa uke 28. Tusen takk til Eli som valgte min. Her er hva hun skrev:
Jeg ble fanget av detaljrikdommen i denne flotte layouten av Beso samtidig som at jeg syns den er ren, og den er absolutt vakker og har noe litt magisk eventyrlig over seg. Virkelig digger bildeserien som ser ut som at den er gammel - som om man har bladd i et album fra langt tilbake og funnet disse. Takk for inspirasjon!

~ Quiet ~ a layout for Ingvilds sketch

2008-07-07T16:33:00.023+02:00

I made this layout for Ingvild Bolmes sketch-challenge. Congratulations to Anne K who won.

Supplies: paper from Heidi Swapp and bazill, thickers (platforms), big flower from Prima, stamps from Heidi Swapp, blonds and various embellishments.

Here you can see som detail photos, please just click on the images for larger views.

Vintage is my favorite style, because then it doesn't matter if I "destroy" the paper and the embellishment, I can then just stich it back together or let it be like it is.

Please don't forget about the challenge at ScrappeMania. I hope not all of you is on vacation. :)

I’m a Guest Designer at ScrappeMania!

2008-07-05T14:19:00.014+02:00

I’m very lucky and proud to tell you that I’m this months guest designer at a Norwegian Challenge blog called ScrappeMania. I was really exited when they asked me a while ago, and the time since has gone soooo slow. The challenge is doing something that I often do now, and that is to scrap a page which is not quadrangle. You can take part at the challenge even if you don’t understand our language, the quadratic-thing is the only requirement to participate in this challenge. Please do if you feel like it, it would make me really happy. There will be a winner that gets a super-fantastic RAK from me, so start SCRAPPIN everyone!! I wish you all a great summer!!

Supplies: papers from Basic Grey, phoepe I think, die-cut paper from Makin Memories, the swirls has been cut out with the silhouette, wax and seal (LOVE) from 7gypsies, ghost heart from Heidi Swapp and a heart from Melissa Frances. I’ve also used some ribbons, a tag, a flower and some other stuff I’m not quite sure where it comes from.

Thanks for visiting my blog, feel free to leave a comment, that will make me very happy. Have a great summer everyone.

{ Be who you are } ScrapJacked

2008-07-01T22:17:00.007+02:00

This is my try for ScrapJacked. This time it was candiMANDI who was jacked and I just love her style. You should really pay her blog a little visit.

Supplies: papers from Making Memories and Heidi Swapp, thickers (Jewelry box), big white flower is from Bazzil, the other one is Prima, pins and raindrops.

Finally {ScrappeMania}

2008-06-26T18:57:00.005+02:00

I made this layout for the One Little Word challenge at {ScrappeMania}. This picture is one of very few I've got of myself and Simone during the time at the hospital. I wish I knew about scrapbooking back then, but I can't change that now so I'll just keep that in mind. The photo is taken the day after she was born.

I don't remember what kind of paper it is, but I know that the big letters are some kind of thickers, the tiny alphas are from Making Memories. The rub-on "We are family" is from Basic Grey. I've also used two ghost shapes from Heidi Swapp, flowers from Prima, and some embellisments from 7gypsies. I think that is everything. You can see some close-ups below.

Thanks for visiting my blog, leave a comment and I'll visit your blog to. :)

A nameless layout for PencilLines Sketch 89

2008-06-22T22:40:00.005+02:00

I made this after Debee Campos' sketch. It was quite a challenge, but I think it went OK. Anyway, the background is a white bazzil, the green paper is from 7gypsies (beautiful, I'm glad I bought two of them) and the flowers are from prima ofcourse. The letters are from MM and the circles are made with liquid pearls. And I've also used one heart (ghost shape), and thats all. Not typically me. :)

I had to fix my blog again.. *lol*

Lek (Play)

2008-06-13T20:49:00.015+02:00

I don't have anything to show you today, but I can tell you that I've finally got my camera, Canon EOS400D!

Nytt hus {ScrappeMania}

2008-05-29T20:57:00.005+02:00

This is my try at ScrappeManias first challenge. I loved the word (new) and got an idea as soon as I saw it. The headline is in norwegian and says "A new house". We have finally started building our own house after monts af dreaming and planning. The papers are from Imaginisce. I don't think I've ever made a layout this simple, but it's fun trying something new. Still feeling that I'm missing something though. Anyway, this is going into a new "house"-album. Beautiful view isn't it?! Can't wait to move in. :)

~ Autumn colours ~

2008-05-26T21:18:00.011+02:00

I made this last friday when i visited Salte, it was actually for Xtinas challenge at Scrappedugnad, but I was to late. I've got my inspiration from Xtina, check out her fantastic blog. Some close-ups to, but that's not easy with the camera that we've still got. I really hope the mailman has a surprise for us tomorrow.

Denne LOen ble valgt ut på stripa uke 23. Takk til Chatrine som valgte den. Her er hva hun skrev:
Jeg velger meg denne nydelige LO'en av beso.
Utrolig kult med bølgepappbakgrunnen og det krøllete arket over. Og fargene og pynten og bildet er bare så perfekt sammen.
Tusen takk for inspirasjonen!

As you can se, I've given my blog a facelift. Had some troubles though, lost everything on the side and got myself a hell of a job fixing it. There's still a lot missing. Thank you for stopping by!

Breathe In, Breathe Out {Scrapping The Music}

2008-05-19T22:12:00.008+02:00

Why does kreativity come when you actually don't have time for it?! Well anyway, if you look at my latest layouts it's mostly grey and green. So I thougth I would challenge myself and use some colours this time. It's also for {Scrapping The Music}, challenge 37. The papers are from Kaiserkraft.

As some of you probably can see, I'm very inspired by Christianes fantastic work. You should take a look at her blog sometime.

I am featured on Inspirational!!

2008-05-14T09:53:00.010+02:00

2008-05-12T13:31:00.022+02:00

A couple of weeks ago Anne Marit asked me if I wanted to design for a store called Papirgleder. Ofcourse I said yes and yesterday it became public! In the Scrapbook Design Team, we are two new ones, me and Hanne Iren. But that's not all, Papirgleder now also got its own new Card Design Team, which consists of 11 fantastic girls. I'm looking forward to get to know you all, and I can't wait to visit the store! You can see a presentation of me and the other members here.

I want to celebrate this with a RAK, so please leave a comment, and I will draw a winner next weekend. :)

I actually used two days to make this, that's not really me. And I am finally starting to use my silhouette again, had some troubles with it a while ago, but now it seems ok. Luckily!

Inspired by Christiane Müller and Bodil.

Så morsomt!! Ania valgte denne LOen til å være på stripa uke 19, altså den første stripa. Tusen tusen takk Ania! Her er hva hun skrev:
Denne av Beso...Digger sømmen og tredimensjonaliteten på kanten, og oppsettet og pynten & detaljene brukt er rett og slett skikkelig perfekt her!!
Thanks for visiting my blog. :)

How much for your thoughts?

I needed a break from studying, and here is the result. I made this for the DTcontest at scrapbookexpress.
Again; papers from My Minds Eye. :)

Another card

2008-04-18T22:17:00.010+02:00

I've also made another tag-card with papers from My Minds Eye again.
I have to stop scrapping for a little while now because I have an exam coming up next week. :(

Thank you for looking. :)

Two cards

2008-04-13T22:15:00.007+02:00

Today I wanted to make cards instead of layouts. Made two tag-cards, and I'm sure there will be more. I think I've forgotten how great it actually was. The brown one is made of papers from 3ndy paper, and the green one is MME, one of the newest collection.
Thanks for visiting. :)

Take a look at this site, I am the scrapper of this month at scrapbookexpress. *Very happy* :D
Thank you!!

Have been scrapping a bit lately, because there are some challenges going on at several sites. Me and Ruffa challenged the DT at Scrapbookexpress first, and got some back. And this is the result of one of them. As you can see I had to use alot of embellishment, fits me very well. :) The pictures had to be me at the table, scrapping ofcourse.

Saturday I scrapbooked with a lot of other girls and had a great night. I hope it's not long until next time. Thank you for stopping by my blog. :)

Totally you

I scrapped this one to a competition at scrapping.no. It's called "scrappeligaen", and i won the 3.round with this. Thank you all, for voting at my layout! *hugs* The text-lines says "Be the change you wish to see in the world" - Ghandi.

The paper which is scalloped comes from mm. And I used some papers from DaisyD aswell. (the one with colours) Thank you againg, for voting. :) I'm quite satisfied myself.

Tomorrow I'm going to meet some scrappers and scrap together with them. Can't wait!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)

3ndypapir

2008-04-01T23:10:00.010+02:00

I love this papers!! And finally I got them from ruffa. Thank you!! :)
This is the first layout I made with the papers from 3ndypapir, and I promise you; there will be more.

The scanning went pretty bad I think, because the paper is actually white. It doesnt look like it though. I've also used blonds, chipboard and raindrops. Thank you for looking.

Blue Ocean

2008-03-20T14:36:00.009+01:00

This one I made to DTs productcontest at scrapbookexpress.no. I had to use papers that looked like ocean, and since I didnt have any, I had do make one myself. It was kind of easy actually, I just used a white bazzil and paintet on it with two colours of dabber, aqua and cloudy blue. The rest of the papers is from MMEs frost.

Thank you for looking, please leave a comment if you like it. :)

Fun

Enda en lift fra Iggydodie, det var nemlig det som var en av oppgavene under påskescrap på scrapbookexpress. Jeg brukte de samme papirer som på "snow" sånn at det blir en dobbel LO i albumet. Synest det er så fint, men lager nesten aldri doble. Da blir det på denne måten her. :)

Another lift from Iggydodie. Actually it was one of the challenge in the eastercompetition at www.scrapbookexpress.no. Then i just used the same papers whick i used when i made "snow" and turned it into a doble LO. I think its really beautiful in albums, but I seldom make doble layouts. I sholud really do that more often.

Thank you for looking, please leave a comment.

Snow

2008-03-16T15:14:00.010+01:00

Denne koste jeg meg skikkelig med å lage. Fikk endelig brukt opp en del av de frost-papirene fra MME. Materialbeskrivelse ligger både på det rosa og det grå. :) Kakeserviettet har jeg fremdeles overflod av, men de er så dekorative synes jeg. Passer godt til snø.

Simone, helt fersk

2008-03-06T23:08:00.007+01:00

Jeg ergrer meg fremdeles (og vil nok alltid gjøre det) over de dårlige bildene vi har av Simone da hun var baby. Så da blir nok mange scrappet i sort/hvitt. Her er alle bildene fra da vi fremdeles var på sykehuset. Guri så fort tiden har gått. Denne LOen har jeg liftet av Trebarnsmamman på det rååza, til sisten-utfordringen. Liftinga mi pleier å leve sitt eget liv da... ;) Har brukt papirer fra DaisyD og ymse stæsj. Symaskina kom også frem på bordet, men jeg er ikke helt kompis med den enda.

Takk for at du tittet.

~Å spise helt selv~

Denne ble jeg diska med fordi jeg ikke hadde lest oppgaveteksten godt nok om at det kun skulle brukes to mønsterark.

Jeg vant!! :)

2008-02-16T19:37:00.008+01:00

Scrapliftutfordringen på scrapbookexpress! Og det var med denne LOen som heter funny faces. Siden den var rimelig "flat" så gikk det greit å scanne denne.

I går var jeg på scrappetreff igjen, denne gangen i Molde. Fikk laget to LOer der og, selv om jeg ikke ble 100% fornøyd med de. Mange trivelige scrappedamer å bli kjent med gitt!

I morgen fyller vesla 4år så da blir det kaker og gele (og en masse bilder!)
Så nå står batteriene på lading. Hun skal også ha barneselskap denne ganger, det kommer seks barn. Jeg tror jeg er like spent som henne.

Takk for at du tittet innom! :)

~ Picture perfect ~

2008-02-06T20:17:00.003+01:00

En av de to LOene jeg laget på treffet på Hjelset. Ble gangske fornøyd med denne, men så holdt jeg på en god stund også.

Forsøkte meg på noe nytt i dag også :)

2008-01-28T23:33:00.004+01:00

Kaffefilterkort!
Har sett flere som har laget veldig stilige kort av kaffefilter. :) Og siden jeg nå føler for å prøve nye ting så passet det jo perfekt. Og jeg tenker det blir flere! :)
Har ikke helt funnet ut hvordan dere skriver på dem da. Har dere f.eks en tag nedi som dere skriver på eller?? Tips tas gjerne imot.

Takk for at du tok turen innom.

Dette var mitt bidrag til Skisse-O-mania 2 på scrapping 2. Takk for stemmene som jeg fikk. :D Har jo endelig fått scanneren nå, men har ikke helt fått inn teknikken med å sy de sammen enda.

2008-01-06T23:00:00.003+01:00

En LO fra meg i dag også. :) Den er laget til sisten på Scrapbookexpress der oppgaven var en skisse samt å bruke noe av det nyeste man hadde. For meg så ble det BGs Periphery-ark og ghost hjertene. :)De arkene er bare sååå lekre!

I morgen begynner skolen igjen, nå ser jeg enden altså! Om 5mnd har jeg bachelorgrad i øk-adm med spesialisering i logistikk. :)

Ha en fin uke alle sammen!

Heisann!

2007-12-04T20:47:00.000+01:00

Ja da ble det blogg på meg også. :)
Har ikke helt fått satt meg inn i hvordan det fungerer enda, men det kommer nok forhåpentligvis etterhvert.

Koselig at du stakk innom !
