Project Life

I am really busy catching up with my project life.. I really like it and take photos like crazy. Week three is finished now.. but I started at the beginning of december already.. so have a lot of cacthing up to do. No worry.. will catch up.. and will not put any pressure on me.
Still have to make a photo of what I made of week 2 and 3 .. but the weather was dark overhere.. so the pictures where nothing. So this week they promised us some nice sunny and cold weather.. so will show it this week !

The only problem I have, is printing out the journaling cards on the right size. I really struggle with them.. but I think I found away ! Would be time.. because I collected many free printables online.. but could not print them. Now the printer at home is not going.. so... printables are not on my good side yet. But that will come. My hubby already said.. if he ( the printer) is not going to work.. we will buy a new one !! So.. the struggle does not continue much longer I hope !

Hopefully the Becky Higgins products will arrive soon at Amazon.co.uk because I really want them. They are soooo yummy.. so maybe I go slow because I am waiting for these :))

Now that I am doing this I noticed that my life is not as boring as I thought. Well not boring.. but I was afraid I won't have enought to put in the project life. But that isn't the case at all. Yesterday my man went to the swimmingpool and hubby saved the ticket of the pool !!! It is for your project he said ! How good it that ! He is thinking about it too. Really like that.

Also see nice ideas with other people I would love in mine project too.. so collecting more and more ideas. Just love it.

This morning we got up.. and we had some snow the first time this winter ! How lovely is that. We waited for this. It is turning cold finally also. We had a lot of rain overhere and that really is soooo boring. You cannot go outside than, I really hate to get wet !
Took a piccies of my son in the snow this morning. He really loves snow. Cutiepie !



Now I am at work.. it is not so busy.. so I had the time to blog. Not happens often.. soo.. now I am off.. to do some work again. Will be back this week to show how I did my PL the last two weeks !

Project Life

Overhere in the Netherlands Project Life has taken a growth like you cannot imagine. It is so nice to see all the ladies here inspiring each other and keep eachother going.
It is now a group of 125 ( I believe) who are together doing this. There are probably more.. but they are not all in this group.. or don't know from the group. I really like being there. Seing what other make.. sharing ideas... just lovely.

Just now I finally made my week one. I already started on November 30. 2011.... I got my little photoprinter and can print when ever I want.. and that is just so lovely ! Like that a lot !

First I want to show you all the front of my album ... I was inspired by Janna Werner.



Still have to paint the inside of the album.. but that will come at a later time. Not that important right now :)

The first page is about us.. as a family.. with parents also in it because they really play a big part in our life.




And than the first week. I am still not completely happy... but that will be on the way. I have some great Ali journaling cards.. but cannot seem to get them on the right size to print them out for my album. I keep trying.. and it will be ok one day.. just don't know when. I get frustrated because I really want them in my PL.. maybe I need to get some help from friends or so..









I put some drawing from Fabian in.. that is so nice to have for later. Finally a good place to save them. Will not put everyting in he makes.. that really will be to much. But every now and than will be good.
So this was my first week.. more will follow soon !!!!

This is my take :



These photo's were made in Fall with the little family.. also together with my parents. I just love these photo's and soon you will see some piccies that were taken that day.

First Mixed Media Canvas

I saw awesome stuff online from Chrissy Tomlinson.. just sooo nice.. and she had a tutuorial.. and I just had to try it. So after work I went to buy some stuff.. and my mum also had some stuff that I could use.
Since my colleaugue has become a dad again I thought it would be nice to make him and his wife something for the little girl.
So I started.. and I love the result !! I will try this more often for sure. It is such fun to do !!
I also saw it with Felicitas and Janna.. two very talented ladies from Germany.. sometimes you just have to do it.



The photo really is not briljant but with all the rain we have over here these days I don't think I will get a better one.

Today it is really stormy all day. The wind is going like crazy and every now and than the rain comes down real hard. NO fun at all. Glad that I don't have to leave the house today. So.. did some stuff for my project life.. like pimping my album. Not finished yet.. so be patient. Have to order the photo's also and adjust some page protectors but cannot get our sewingmachine to work. so I have to ask my hubby. Really not handy with that. So as soon as I can make a normal nice picture of it all I will do !
