Wiola just loves the winter and I hade to scrap this photo of her full of snow!
You know have we all think through our lives at the new years and deiced to do some things differently... I planed to do more scrapbooking in smaller format, 12x12 album are just huge... And what it the first page I do this year? Well I love how it looks so I suppose it's alright...
It's so fun to work with a winter line how has such fun and bright colors! Here in Sweden winter is grey, grey and in best case white but mostly grey...
The other day I looked into my papers and saw these 3 Maggie Holmes papers next to each other and I just had to make a page with them!
I picked my favorit photo from my last print order and some horded embellishments from Felicity Jane. The rest is stickers and papers from different crate paper collections and random bits from my desk. I just love how these odd pages come together!

My best medicine for morning pain is hands down my lovely little rascal to dog. When some days starts of a bit harden usual she jumps up and lays down next to my legs. If it is her pressens, warmth or some magical healing power i don't know. All I know is she that she makes life a little bit easier.
I get very inspired by colors and fun color-schemes. Colors that make me think and makes me happy. Like the colors in Suse's kit for Felicity Jane. I love that lavender blue color and with those soft pinks it really made me want to create.
I had a very clear plan when I started this page, I wanted the colored cardstock as a background with some with paint and the vellum shapes and sequins sewn in a "reef" around the photo.
Starting with such a specific plan scars me a bit, I'm not very good at following directions even if they are me own but it turned out really nice!
Sometimes you just have to sit down and play! The other day I had one of those days and I had so much fun, nor even noticing that the camera died...
I was inspired my some really awesome youtube-ladies; Suse & Adele and I had just had so much fun. I did Adele's heart thing and some tight layers around the photo à la Suse.
The hearts are from a scrap paper but the layers, stamps and confetti pocket is from Felicity Jane. I just love that the kits comes with "finishing details". The small things to finish off a page.
I do love my black, it really helps to add contrast and interest to a page. Here I have used some foam thinkers from Amy Tangerine "Grace" , love that they come not just with words but with some cute details like hearts and swirly thingis.
Over the past weeks I have gotten a few very happy thing that I thought to share with you!
First; I'm so happy to finally get my Felicity Jane kits! I sign up for the international bundle for march/april (still haven't gotten those but hope to get them some time...) and now I got the may and june! Everything is so pretty and of such good quality.

May kit: "Note to self"
June kit: "Next stop"
W is guarding the the kits from the paper thief, Majken...
From PYhobby picked up some tape-refills (fun!), black & white washi (my other is almost at an end) and then I found some fun things from "La De Dah" A glue pen, gold stickers and sticky notes.
I really like the colors of these but to call them sticky is a huge lie.
This little book comes with 5 sheets of gol foiled stickers. The gold is really nice, cute design and very usable. Really recommend this one! The "glue pen" (very similr to the smash one) is NOT something I will recommend. The glue isn't good and the pen is not nice or smooth to write with. sorry La De Dah.
One of my favorite washis; the simple black & white diagonal striped one. I got one roll in, march i think, and I need a new one!
The last of the things I've gotten is five new pens.
I don't really need new pens but these colors where just so cute! The top 2 are just "normal" but the middle two are neon red and pink! The bottom one is a gold ball-point!!!
W also gaurds my lovelly traveler's notebook...
Now I just need a cute pen-case to take all my pens in with me!
I always try to challenge my self, here I wanted to see if I could make a page
with as many photos of sleeping W as possible.
9 3x3 photo and some flower diecuts!
I think the trick to use many photos is to design a grid, where it's easy to see them.
