Welcome to our website !
I day dream, when Wiola and I walk and think about how it would be if we where to start competing in Rally, if we where to move, build our own house. If I could make a living, doing what I love. We all have different things we go around thinking about, what we would do if...
So I thought I would take a moment to document just what I'm dreaming about now at 22.

The page is quite simple, not much product but I wanted to keep it light, let the background show. 
The kraft cardstock is painted with white and a grey acrylic paint and then silver splatters. I thought it looked like a sky and how perfect is the for the "head in the blue" so I draw some clouds and stitched. That took longed then I care to admit but I love it!  
 This page is one of my favorite, so many elements coming together, like this tag. I wanted a tag with the title so i stamed using the oh-so-cute stamp set from Paiper Projekt, a dymo word and subtile is a strip from Tim Holtz "small talk". 
 What is with the animals here, every time!! 
But she really is cute, isn't she!




Keeping the photo cluster light and small means that the background will have a bigger role. Here I really get the feeling of night and dreams without it being a dark or heavy background. I hope you like this page and that it inspired you to document your day dreams!

The Maggie Holmes "Bloom" collection is perfect for all the flowers coming up now in April but it's just as nice for documenting a birthday with it's fun and happy colors!
I had four photos I wanted to use but after some thought (during a long time) I decided to only use these three that are the same size. Matting them on the frames makes them stand out but in a gentle and fun way. The colors are picked from the the photo and the accent color is black, to make is pop.


 This cat is seriously everywhere!!!


Products:
stamps for background: Hello
paper: Bloom 6x6 paper pad
title: Amy Tangering "Grace"  & BoBunny "Tuxedo"

I love that you get printables in your Felicity Jane subscription, like a entrée before the real kit comes. When I printed these from the "Chloé" kit I knew I had to add them to this weeks spread. 

I have a personal sized Websters Pages Color Crush in Teal Strip with just the calendars in it. I don't use the other inserts and it gives me more room to play with fun things. 
  I knew I wanted to use that flower and it was perfect for my brothers birthday. The banner shapes are just so cute and it feels so spring-y! The yellow-doted card I punched holes in and I think I might add a photo of brother there from his birthday. 

 I'm a huge goal setter and every week I have a few things I want to focus on, those goes in the "week box". Every time I do one thing I get to draw a line, which is oddly satisfying... 

Now that spring has come to us in the north I want to add flowers and happy-colors everywhere and this kit really delivers on that! Now I really can't wait to get the kits!!

When I sitt down to scrapbook I have a crate next to me with printed photos from the past months. I go through them to pick one or if I already have a story in mind, find the photo I had thought about. But How about the older ones? The ones from years ago that are pretty but just sit there without a story? The other day I found a photo of myself that my mom had taken during a walk in the woods. I had a story I wanted to tell and that photo was just perfect.

I wanted to document how much I love walking in our woods, how much better I feel when coming home and the best part of the walks. Bird song, the air, Wiola and sunshine through the branches. 


 What is with this cat? Everytime, she comes

My mom always says that she can't understand where I get my creativity from, sens she doesn't see herself as very creative. Well maybe she doesn't paint or sew or "make" things but I really do think of her as a very creative person. So I wanted to make a page about that and that she is a really great photographer. And just what she like to have in her lins...

My mom has a close relationship with her camera and often brings it out on our walks. With her lins she captures the nature around us, the birds in the sky, our funny dogs but most of all, the
 close up of anything. 
You can find her in the ditch to capture a spring flower or crawling around to find pretty stones. 
On her toes to reach to the branches filled with water-drops or trying to make Majken sitt, still... 

Favorit object has to be tulips and I'm so happy that I thought about taking these photos of her, on her birthday. (she got allot of tulips...)
 Come Close, Come Closer.
I wanted to make a girly, pretty page with the elements that she likes. Pink, tulips and butterflies. 
 The background is stamped with the "Bloom" stamp set and the roller phrase stamp from "Shine". Then splattered with Heidi Shine in "Pink" and "Gold"
 watercolored tulips on stamped background with some ink splatter... Well that is pretty much me, but sens this page is about where I get my creativity from, I had to have some "me" things here...
 So it's a page where we come together and it tells a story of both me and my mom.
"But i believe that I had to gotten my creativity from someone how sees the beauty in the tiny things, like  water-drops..."

Do to some internet problem this week my Monday and Wednesday post will be up today and tomorrow instead. Irritating, yes but it's all good because the layout that I made for today I really like!  

So by now you know I have a thing for swans, and if you want to see more, check out THIS blog post. So the other day my brother and I walk around the swan lake and we got to see a pair of black swans. I had never event hard of black swans and I was Smitten!!

The Maggie Holmes -"Bloom"  papers was just perfect for this but I also used a floral paper from "Confetti" to add some color. I really love that with Crate Paper that you can easily mix the different collections, here the deep pink and coral works so well with the bird and the other papers. 
 I wanted the use more paper and less embellishments here, to really focus on the photos. I think sometimes it's easier to think of the papers as an embellishment or a decor piece. Here I cut out two clusters of flowers added a doily and some tiny wood hearts and pearls. The tittle, black, is a script word from Amy Tangerine I like that it has some wight but it's not heavy.  

 I had allot to say about how pretty the birds where and how rarely I actually do thing I want to do, like walking around the swan-lake. So I typed  my journaling on vellum with my typewriter and yes it is very imperfect and has allot of spelling mistakes but what I have written is true and honestly, it looks good... 
I hope you've liked this page had that you all have a great weekend!
Love Julia
