{{ Takk }}

This is it..
This is the last challenge from us, the last challenge from ScrappeMania..

It's hard to explain how it feels right now, but I think we did the right thing - for us. We neither had the time or the energy to continue. So, I decide to appreciate the fun we had and all the inspiration we shared.


We chose the word "Takk" (Thank you) for this last challenge, and of course I had to use the photos from the blog.
I will always follow these girls, see the amazing things they make and get even more inspired by them!

Takk jenter/Thank you girls.

Happy Birthday to us, Happy Birtday to uuuus!!!! :D

This month ScrappeMania are celebrating its one year anniversary! It has already been a year, wow! To start with we are very excited, and proud, to have (the one and only) Dina Wakley as a guest designer this month. I love all her creations. She's so inspiring when it comes to paint and glimmer mist, and she always delivers the most unique layouts. You really need to take a look at her blog.

And take a look at the Maniablog too. Remember - we'll be celebrating this month. The first challenge is already up (you'll find something from Dina there), and there's more to come...

Here's my take on our newest challenge.









Supplies: Bazzill Basics Paper, My Mind's Eye, Prima Marketing Inc, Clearsnap, Basic Grey, Crafty Individuals, Hambly Screen Prints, Papier Valise, Papirloftet, Melissa Frances and Making Memories.

{{ Happy Birthday, Mikael }} and {{ Magical Eyes }}

Happy Birthday Mikael!!!



Can't believe it, my baby is no longer a baby.. He turned 1 year on friday 23rd.

We celebrated his birthday yesterday, just the closest family. I'm not a huge fan of baking cakes, but I did my best trying to decorate one of them..



Mommy loves you <3


A new word is up at ScrappeMania, this time it's "Magisk/Magical". The prize is some beautiful papers from Studio2Mers Créations, so for you Norwegian girls - don't forget to participate.

I choose to use this picture of Mikael because I think it really captures his huge, adorable Magical Eyes.

{{ Winter Wonderland }}

The Maniagirls have been sponsored by Making Memories this month. We got some adorable papers from the Paperie Collection, and some flowers, buttons, ribbons and clips. Too cute!

I made a minialbum with winter photos of me as a little girl.

{{ Love is in the Air }}

For me, this is a clean and simple layout.
I had a blast playing with coffee and water. And the reason for that, is the new challenge at ScrappeMania from our two new guest designers, Gudrun Loennecken and Lene Solhaug. We had to make a vintage layout without using distressing. A huge challenge for me. My distress inks are always right in front of me, and I really had to concentrate to not use them. Serioulsy, they were in my hands several times - I'm obviously addicted!

But, I did it! No ink! We also had to use something really old. I've used a piece from a crochet bedspread that my great-grandmother made and some really old stamps that my grandmother gave me.







Supplies: Jenni Bowlin, Making Memories, Hambly Screen Prints, Panduro, Prima Marketing Inc, Tim Holtz, Papier Valise and 7 Gypsies.

{{ Because of You }}

There's a new word up at ScrappeMania - Fordi/Because. I hope you Norwegian girls will give it a try. The prize is an amazing vintage kit from Bad Girls Kits! :D

I choose a beautiful picture of my youngest son this time. He's at home with me every day, and he just makes me so happy. He has this big smile on his face all the time, and he is the only child in this family who still likes to cuddle. I'll have to enjoy it while it lasts..

I'm quite happy with the result on this one. Scrapping on a circle isn't something I do often, but it was really fun! There will definitely be more, you just wait and see.

{{ Little Explorer }}

Gosh, these papers are just stunning, and I can't seem to get enough of them. Still have a bunch of them lying her too. Some of them were a gift from Sabine Vally-Thomas, the woman behind Studio2Mers Créations. Yes, she has sponsored the Maniagirls. Thank you so much Sabine!!! :)

Here is what I made; Little Explorer. My first try with the new line, Air du Temps.

Og så litt på norsk da. :)
ScrappeMania har en ny konkurranse på gang, en litt større en denne gangen, Mania Runway. Ja, jeg vet jeg skrev om denne i forrige innlegg, men jeg må jo dytte det litt fram siden jeg har et nytt innlegg her da.. Puh!
Anyways, bli med da!!
