This is the new year......

Good morning, 

This morning i will have a layout for  Let's get shabby. They have a wonderful challenge for this month and as inspiration they have chosen for a new years song: "This is the new year "by Ian Axel. It's a very positive song for a new beginning of the year and the lyrics are very nice. So you can either create with the title and / or lyrics from the song. Have a look at their blog to get some inspiration of the DT team. 

This is my entry for this challenge. I stuck with the colors of the color room, blue, pink & white. And i choose to make a round layout, that was a job. All around is stitched with lace.  

Story behind the picture, it was our 1e new year together in 2003 / 2004 when we are on the ship. And i thought it fit perfectly with the song. 

I used the Title and the following lyrics:

Cause in the end we have each other, 

and that's at least one thing worth living for, 

And i would give the world to you. 

I found this blog trough mandy. Thank you for your nice comments all the way from Tasmania!

Have a good day,

Hand in hand....TCR#96

Good afternoon, 

Lots and lots of time on my hand, what better to do than crafting. So i am using and abusing this time, organizing my craft room, which is going slowly but its work in progress. I just started to organize my ribbon disaster and that will be a 5 year plan but i started. But let me share my scrapbook page today, it will be my entry for this weeks color room challenge. The colors are all pastels and made me think of babies........ so i went trough my stash of baby pictures. Thank god for friends with children....very handy!

Love this picture, its so cute. 

All paper used is from maja design from the flowers to the butterflies. 

Well this is it for me today, time to make diner.

Wonder story CSI#4

Good afternoon,

Hope you are all enjoying this beautiful saturday. I had a great morning, early shopping in ikea ( before the rush! ) after to the mall and some lunch with a friend. Now i am back and i wanted to share this weeks take on the CSI#4 file.

This picture was taken in the beautiful city of Prague, where i went for a girl's weekend out. Beautiful place, lots to see, very clean, lots of history and we saw it all by foot. We walked from morning till evening.......so i was taken a moment on a bench watching the beautiful scenery over the river. When looking at the picture i was wondering what i was thinking? or was it just a blank moment to enjoy the view???

Evidence used: Tulle, frame, rhinestones, and a wet medium. 

I used gesso around the foto, on the fitting doll, frame and fence. On the fitting doll i place tulle to give it more of a rough effect. The flowers are made of tissue paper and the same tulle used around the foto. 

On this picture you can see the texture and effect of gesso. 

Color scheme:

Thank you all for stopping by and have a great weekend,

Mojo Monday 226

Good afternoon, 

This is my entry for the mojo monday challenge for this week, this was the sketch:

I choose round, almost all my cards are always square. 

It's a 2 in 1 card, because there is another card on the inside. 

As valentine's day is coming our way i made a "love'card but not with the usual valentines colors. 

Have a nice day and thanks for stopping by,
