Been to a barncrop!

oh, yes! I've been scrapping in a barn. It was just outside Tønsberg, and I had such a great time last Saturday. Went with my dear neighbor Lene off course. And as usual I met at lot of nice ladies, some new and some I've met before.
I wasn't very productive, made ony 3 layouts, but I was jabbing a lot *lol*

Here is the one I made for the OLW at Scrappemania



Have to wait to show you the other two LO's (for a challenge off course :P)

Paris here I come!!

Ok, so I'm late.. I know! And we're not just talking a little late, but seriously late. I'm always like that when I'm going places. I would like to have some more time, but I still find my self packing minuets before take off *faint*.
Like now.. I'm on my way to Paris and the Paper&Co Show *excited!!*, but do you think I'm ready.. of course not. Just finished the stuff I have to bing to classes. Have to pack my clothes, but I had to post this LO for the challenge at Scrappemania {One Little Word}; Because.

So have to rush! Have an hour and 20 minutes, before I'm off to pick up Aase.
Take care... I'll be back *smile*

I looove thickers - yes I do!!

No doubt in my mind! I really love thickers, and I have a lot of them, but I still don't have enough *lol*
So when Scrappehuset put up a challenge using AC thickers, it was no problem making a LO or two. Made this some time ago, but with so much going on, I almost forgot to post it. As you probably will notice, the layout with my "dog", is from the blue kit that Lene made for me. The one I've made for Scrappehuset I'll post later.


And oh.. oh.. Have to tell you that my layout "Lazy days of summer" was used in the newsletter from ScrapInStyle. It was picked as the Layout of the Week *juhu*. I'm so proud!
This is what they wrote:

Layout Of The Week
Inspiring Art by our SIStv SISters

LOTW
Every week in the SIStv Gallery there are thousands of beautiful pieces of artwork created by our SISters. This week, this layout entitled "Lazy Days Of Summer" by miamum was our top choice! We love the layers, the mixtures of trims and vintage elements, as well as the photo! We also like the orientation of the page as an 11x8.5. Thanks for sharing.

Vintage Kit

Made this a week ago for the challenge at Scrappehuset. Cathrine Angelica Hunstad has given the challenge to scrap a vintage LO with flowers. I used the kit challenge Lene gave me, and I'm very pleased with this layout.
The title is from Kid Rock's hit All Summer Long.

Challenge #3 and#4



Ok, so I 'didn't make it quite to the top with these two, but that doesn't mean I'm not pleased with the result, cause I'm!

Challenge #4 made it almost to the final, missed it with 3 votes.
We where to use at much stash as possible.

I love this picture of Ivar digging for potatoes. It was taken when we visited an open day at a farm nearby.

He digged digging! :lol: But he didn't want to take the potatoes out of the dirt, then he would have to get his hands dirty, so he left that job to his little sister. And she loved it! *faint*

Made it for challenge #3, we should use three different teqniques. Iused sewing, disstressing and tearing

What I made of the "blue" kit


Last weekend I made two layouts out of the blue kit that Lene made for me. I thought it wout be easy, but when I sat there, I really wanted to use just a "little bit" more *lo*. Managed to make this 6x12.

I made one 12x12 also, but the picture of it turned out aweful, so I'll post it later.
My computer is out of work..grr
My brother is fixing it for me, but in the meantime I feel like I've lost an arm or something *urk*
