Goodmorning lovelies, are you still standing? A storm sweeps across Zeeland and I can hear the wind roar around the rooftop. These windy days made me grab an old photo to create with, but first there’s a desk to show. After all, it is What’s On Your Work desk Wednesday a<\/em>nd Julia once again hosts this lovely, weekly event. She’s done so for over nine years and still going strong… WOHWEE!
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

There’s nothing on my work desk for you to see so I turned a quarter and made a picture of the desk that’s against the wall…<\/p>\n

WOYWW #510<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Those paintings (there’s another small one behind the printer) and framed print are waiting to be hung on the wall in the hallway. We need to buy a rail for that first, so I can hang a ‘collage of paintings’ without drilling an enormous amount of holes in the wall. Those pattern sheets I found in a second hand store and I plan to use parts of it in my art journal.<\/p>\n

Instead of art journaling, I am still in a scrap-mode lately. There’s this Dutch scrap booking challenge group on Facebook and their latest challenge was ‘Spring’. Exactly a year ago today, we were handed the keys to our new apartment and Spring began with us moving houses… so I made this layout with the challenge. Does it look “Happy Spring” or what?!<\/p>\n

Thuis (Home)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Where art journaling takes me to deeper sides of myself and cost efforts sometimes, I find scrap booking very relaxing. It also takes me back to my early blog days (10 years ago!) when I first discovered all kinds of scrapbookers online and challenge blogs that inspired me. I learned so much in those first months! Those challenge blogs I used to go to (who remembers ScrapMojo<\/em>, Scrapping the Music<\/em>, Scrapping Out Loud<\/em>, These are a few of my favorite things<\/em> – Hi Julie<\/a> \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42 ) are all gone now but I found another challenge blog: Challenge YOUrself<\/a><\/p>\n

Their challenge: “This month, we challenge you to scrap a photo with YOU in the frame along with using just black and white plus red on your page.”<\/p>\n

I had to think of this old photo (taken back in the eighties) of me wearing my red raincoat, sitting on a bench on a dike, so I decided to give it a go and play along with the challenge… I printed the photo in black and white and colored my coat and boots red. (yep, I had red boots, my all time favorites… I almost cried when they were so worn out that even the shoemaker couldn’t repair them anymore…)<\/p>\n

On a Windy Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The background paper is an oldie from my stash (don’t know the brand) and the pattern is a photo of sand ridges. The paper behind the photo (the ‘white cracked wall’ pattern) comes from a scrapbook paper block that I bought for a bargain at a local store (for the Dutchies: “Action”) I stitched with the sewing machine and I found some old letter-stickers for the title that I painted red. It was fun to create this layout while the storm raged outside.<\/p>\n

I wish you all a happy Wednesday and a lovely week. Thanks for your visit, see ya!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
