Another Friday already, MAN – time flies!
I do love my freewheelin’ Fridays, but during the week I’m not that much
freewheelin’ – I’m working my hands blue (and red, and orange and purple:
paint and spray ink!) preparing my upcoming workshop!
Somewhere in the next week the registration will be online (still working
on some loose ends according to the “rules” and “payments”) and I’m
scared and exited at the same time… a new year and a new adventure…
but I’m ready for it!
And here’s another intention for the next year 🙂
Teehee… I wear mostly black! But maybe it’s time for red pants…
Jeanet? Wanna join? 😉
This is also the title of my latest layout I made using two challenges…
From “Scrapping out LOUD!” and from “Scrapbooking Supplies R Us”
It will be the last challenge over at Scrapping out LOUD!
This challenge blog comes to an end after this last challenge…
I’m a bit sentimental over it, ’cause discovering this challenge blog
(about a year ago; a few weeks after I started bloggin’ myself)
marks the start of my “online scrapbooking career”
In no time, the three ladies who started it – Jessica, Denise and Melissa –
became my first “blog buddies” and through them, I discovered lots of
other blogs, opportunities and creativeness.
I will never forget the friendship they offered me (and still do!)
Girls, thanks a zillion for being such lovely & inspiring friends and
faithful visitors of my blog – I love you and wish you all the best with
whatever new adventures you will find on your new path!!!
So you see, there was no doubt in my mind I would participate
in the last SOL challenge, whatever it would be! For all times sake!
And it was a fun challenge too!!!!
“Your challenge is to scrap a page with all the colors of the rainbow on it!
Of course you can use any shades of the colors.. but make sure they are
all there!”
I knew right away that I wanted to scrap a picture printed in all the
rainbow colours… I also remembered there was a challenge about
using more photo’s at “Scrapbooking Supplies R Us” so I looked it up:
“For The Sampler’s 1st official challenge we want to see your layouts with
FIVE OR MORE PHOTOS on a single page! You have from today through
December 25th, 2009 to post the links to your layouts here in the comment
section and win some goodies from our debut kit and add-on!
This layout sure satisfies that challenge too!
The title comes from the song "She's like a Rainbow" (Rolling Stones) The background paper is an oldie (no branch) from my stash. I used all kinds of different alpha's for the title and embroidery thread in rainbow colours.
These swirls,
embroidered in
rainbow colours,
are inspired by a
layout I saw over
at Ronda’s once.
Do you remember my “decades mini album” I made for t.a.a.f.o.m. f.t.???
The mailman
brought me my
prize last week!
Woooweeeee!
HAPPY MAIL!!!!
Thanks Michelle Baca
for all the wonderful
goodies you stuffed
into that box!
I love it ALL and will
enjoy to work with it.
In fact, I have already
plans for a layout using
the little crown mask!
And now on to some “freewheelin’ for real”
Miscellaneous facts and thoughts!
the design team for the t.a.a.f.o.m.f.t. challenge blog!!!
and my creative week that will go with that. Participants are still
welcome!!! If you didn’t read about it: you can find the announcement
and my plans at the end of this post.
“The Story Matters” a while ago. It’s made by Monica Powell and
called “Art of Being a Woman“. Some inspiration!!!
Miroslav Tichý. This man made his own camera’s and you should really
hop over to Seth’s blog “The Altered Page” and read more about it and
LOOK AT THE PICS OF THOSE SELFMADE CAMERA’S!!!
I wish I lived in, or near, New York to visit that exhibition!!!
of snow. All regions EXCEPT where I live!!! Can you believe that?
I saw it on the evening news yesterday… trains broke down, schools
closed, electricity failed and what did we get here…. NOTHING!!!
Three snowflakes maybe…. DANG!
But I’m going to force it…. I’m gonna go out to get my weekend groceries
right now! I will get me lots and lots of food and drinks and snacks and
I expect to see it snow right after I come home!!!
I might even do a “snow dance” to please the weather gods…
Pleeeaaaasssse, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow….
Happy weekend everyone!
Je t’embrasse!
