New Prima paper collections, flowers and Xmas felt border! Yum!

American Crafts goodies! We were all in heaven looking at all the thickers!Making Memories new paper collection!

Almost There

If you've been to the site this weekend, you can tell that we have been experiencing a few technical difficulties but we are going to be up and running again real soon. Thank you for your patience!

Am I the only one?

Or are all of you scrapping mothers out there doing the same? What I mean is that I sometimes place my kids in front of something to take a photo, just because it's the perfect match with a great paper collection.... I admit, I am such a mom....
A little while ago I only made this picture because I was expecting a package from A Million Memories with the perfect papers.

And these papers were on their way:

great match right? Now I've seen the new CHA releases, I'm already thinking about the right photo's to take the next few weeks.....;-)

Some Summer Color Inspiration

I was browsing the Urban Outfitters website looking for some new bedding. I have a bit of a bedding addiction and like to change it often. I found these two duvets that I just loved and thought would be great color inspiration for a layout and even as a patterned paper.




















I love the fresh and bright colors in these two. They might end up on my bed soon!

In other news, the DT members are gearing up for ChA next weekend. All of the peeks that have been popping up look so awesome. This is my first CHA so I am super excited.

What new releases are you looking the most forward to? I am really excited about American Crafts and the new Thickers.

LOTW - July 1-8

This week's Layout of the Week goes to the amazing Mia.



Look at this awesome layout. It's fun, colorful, with so many layers and so much texture. I absolutely love it! Mia, you rock!!

some photo's

Some photo's need a layout. Beautiful photo's, precious photo's, heritage photo's and so on. But also photo's that aren't perfect. Fenna ( my youngest) cried her eyes out on the schoolphoto. She really looked dreadfull on it, but also hilarious! I needed to scrap that photo!

So I dare you to scrap those photo's which aren't perfect. I'd love to see some of those in the gallery.
