Getting into Tags

Since my friend Marian introduced me to the Tags.. I really like to make them.. I am just a newby to it but I really like it. I want to try more.. and do more.. so I will be making more of these little artworks.. it is just to nice.



I got these stamps for my b-day at the beginning of this month.. they are from our great Tim Holtz.. just loooove these stamps.. you can do som much with them.. I tried a bit with distress and it turned out okay. It can be a lot better in my eyes.. but on the way I will learn more..

A whole scrappy day

Last week I went to my mums to do a scrapday together. It was really nice to be creative with my mum again. It was so long ago. Since Fabian is in preschool we hardly get together to scrap anymore. I have to pick Fabian up to eat and than bring him back. No problem ofcourse.. but when I am at my moms time is just to limited to do that.. so we stay at home when he is in school. Now that he has his holiday it is scrappytime again.

THis is what I made and I really like this one.




I really like this photo. It was taken at the Zoo in Germany last summer. It is such a great Zoo in Stuttgart ( that is where my hubby is from) We love to go there.. this was Fabian's first time and he would like to go more often when we are there. So we are planning to do that. It is so nice. He likes to climb and there where so many possibilities there. So he enjoyed himself.. and so did we.

Now the little man is staying over for some nights with his grandparents. It is really quiet in the house. I am so used to hearing him talk to me.. and playing around !! But I know he really likes it there.. so let him enjoy hisself.

Some to show again.....

Lately I have not been scrapping that much.. there was always a lot to do.. so not much scrapping time left. But this weekend I really wanted to do some scrappin' again.
I took the photo's of Fabian of the shoot we had with him last september.. Just loove those piccies. They are so fun to see.

This one was soo funny. It was at the end of the shoot. Fabian stood on this table and started singing a song he learned at school. My lord is so big... ( in dutch.. mijn god is zo groot. So that is why I took this title ! I just could not resist.




Than another photo of the shoot... I just looks so cute I believe.



There is not much more to say about this photo.

For both layouts I used some amazing Crate Paper.. ( think toy box) Just love what Crate Paper brought out this CHA.. just amazing ! How can you not like it !!

The weather here is really beautifull lately.. so a lot of sitting in for me because of my allergie.. but hey.. it does not hold me back always.. A girl has to enjoy the weather also.

Challenge April Scrappassion

A new month a new challenge at Scrappsion. This month the challenge is a minibook. Real hard for me.. because I get bored really easy.... and I am just not good in it. So also for me a real challenge.
The minibook has to have 5 pages ( incl. front and back) the rest is free to decide. So please girls.. do your best.. and make a beautifull mini. We love to see what you make

Toppie

Lately I have been scrapping again.. not like crazy.. but just a bit. With this nice weather I really am not in the mood to sit inside the whole time. Now ( 17.15) the sun is going away in our garden and it is getting a little chilly. But hey.. I want to enjoy as long as I can.

Fabian is playing outside with the neighbourkid ( not my gave kind of kid.. but they same to get along ...)) Real long story why I don't like the kid.. but mostly it is his parents using us as their personal caretakers. And that is something I really don't like all the time !



This layout is made with a picture from a photoshoot that we had. I really like those photos very much and did not use very much of them. So it was time to use them. I got this MME paper and thought it was so right for it. I like the look I created. Got some new Tim Holtz stamps and they are just so gorgoeus. Cannot get enough of them.. but don't want to use them for every layout.. but you will probably see more of them

Lately I have been busy with a configuration box of Tim. With a friend of mine. It really gets nice. As soon as it is finished I will show it ofcourse... but since we only work on it together.. it will take sometime to get ready.. but love it very much till now.

My first tag

My friend Marian makes tags.. real nice tags.. told her I could not do that... some how to little space for me. But she really got me into Tim Holtz stamps and than I start looking also at tags.. and thought.. hey.. why not.. let's try it.
She even brought me some tags to try it till I got them myself.. how sweet is that.

And here it is.. my very first tag.. I really like making it. It still misses some ribbon.. but don't know what to take yet.


It was a lot of fun making it. I want to get better at it.. because it is so nice to do. Maybe do some layering and so on.. that will be nice also.. let see what will happen. I am sure it is not the last one I made..

Time for a new challenge at Scrappassion

Today it is the first of the month again.. so time for a new challenge at Scrappassion. This month the challenge was really nice.. but not very easy.
Here is what I made of it.. and than I will explain.
