I went to a book fair in November and bought this wonderful book:

It has tons of inspiration for home decoration. I made this little birdie using that book:

Sketchy Thursdays

I played again with Sketchy Thursdays! This is the sketch of this week: and I created this page with it. The colours look brighter in real life than on the picture.

Creative with glimmermist

I've been playing with glimmermist, swirls, stamps and paper. This is the result:

Wreck this journal

Every year from November 1st till November 11th, there is a giant book fair in Belgium. My dad and I are addicted to books so every year, we have to go there. I bought 2 novels and also this one:
I've heard so much about this book and I always wanted to have one by myself. I was so surprised to see it there and it's in Dutch too!!!! I didn't know they translated it. Can't wait to get started with it. Do you have one too?????

My dad gave me a fat book about sewing. There are plenty of techniques explained in it and the best part is that it shows pics of every step. I totally love it. I wanted to start sewing right away and guess what??? I'm now wearing my first selfmade skirt. So damn PROUD of it!!!

Fall or sport activities.

The challenge at scrap and stamp Saturday (http://scrapandstampsaturday.blogspot.com) this week is to create a page about fall or sport acitivities. The sponsor this week is:
The winner can choose 2 digis of their choice.

In the fall 2007, my friend Daphné and I went for a walk and took some fall pics. I used them to create a mini album. You can see some of my pages below:

Oh yes, if you decide to play with us at SSS, don't forget to use at least 1 stamp!

Happy Halloween!

Sketch

I used the sketch of Piens Weblog to create this layout about a fisherman in Djerba. The photo is not the best quality because you can see the flashlight reflection. On the bottom of this post, you can see the same layout without the flashlight reflection.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Paint

Our new challenge at Scrap and Stamp is to use paint on the borders of your pictures. You can win a gift certificate of $15 in this shop: I didn't have time to scrap this week so I took one of my pages I made a long time ago. I think I created this one in 2006. I think you can see that my style has changed by the years. I liked it a lot back then, but now I'm not sure about it anymore. Oh well, I guess everyone has those feelings about a few layouts, don't you?

Fall is in the country and you can see it when you look outside: rain, rain, rain,.... Ideal for some scrapping, don't you think?

Pencil Lines

Pencil lines is celebrating 4 years of inspiration today! Every hour they are posting a sketch of the past years and you have the change to win a RAK with every sketch. So, go quickly to www.pencillines.com and play with them.

I chose this sketch

and made this layout with it.

Stitches

Indeed, this is this weeks challenge at Scrap and Stamp Saturday (http://scrapandstampsaturday.blogspot.com)

We want to see stiching at your layout. It can be real or faux!!! The sponsor this week is:
The winner will receive 4 images of their choice.

I made this layout:

I used this wonderful sketch of Sketchy Thursdays! Their sketches always give me lots of inspiration. Totally in love with them.

So, how is your weekend going? I hope it's better than mine. I have a sore throat and a painful head. I think I have my first real cold of this autumn.

Have fun creating, girls!

Busy, busy, busy

The start of the new schoolyear is always very busy for me as I'm a teacher in grade 3 (age 7 - 8 years). That's also why I didn't post any new layouts .

Last Sunday we needed some US-time so Eric and I went to the coast for a look walk on the pier.
