I made a layout about one and only time I went swimming last year...

I think this paper is one of my favorite designs. It´s from Fancy Pants. Love the warm yellow and orange colours. I ripped the paper in two spots and added some green fun papers that made me think about bubbles. The green paper is from my scrap stash. Also added some fun stickers like the tab, circles and photo corners.

I don´t usually cut in my photos but I thought this circle shaped photo fitted the rest of the design so well. Also I think it make you have a second look.

Now I hope you pop over to

Time for a layout....

Was a time ago since I last showed you a layout. This time I made a simple layout about how hard it can be to get a good photo of my son. But in the same time there are no other place I rather be- he always make me smile....

Pop over to En liten butik 
to see the layout and found out what I used to make it.

It´s time for a layout

I made this LO to display at my local scrap shop called Scrapbutiken.  It´s quite clean and simple but I really like it.

The hearts are made of chipboard and I used a new dies from Sizzex. Only chalked the edges of them and then put them together. Wrapped a bit of ribbon and made a bow around one of them and decorated the others with some leaves from Prima and a few flowers.

 

The colours came together really well on this layout, don´t you think?

Veckans Skiss

I have not had time to play along with Veckans Skiss for ages. But I finally found some time and made a layout about my sweet sweet son!

This is the sketch

And this is my take:
