Project Life

I signed up for the Studio Calico Project Life kit in February, intending to use the products for scrapping. The April kit, Spencer's, was my first to recieve. I loved it so much! Then I read this brilliant forum post about making PL pages randomly, not caring about being caught up. Since then I've been waiting for the page protectors to show up in SC shop, and now here they are! I've decided to make one page per month, and then extra if we should do anything special. I will randomly start with March! Here you are:




Materials: SC PL kits Spencer's, Planetarium and Roundabout, Neverland scrapbook kit plus addons Lost Boys and Wendy, plus a few Dear Lizzy badges, all the stamping is with Versafine stamp pad in onyx black

As you may remember I recently revealed being part of the Stromsvigt DT. I am now anxiously awaiting the arrival of 4 new stamp sets to work with. I will have some pages up in the near future. The stamps are for sale as of NOW right here! Here are images of two of the new stamp sets. Don't you just love them?

Using pins

Using Pinterest is my favorite method for when I get stuck. Especially simple layouts turn out great when using a graphic pin as inspiration. I recently pinned this:


I googled for a nice quote to use, and came across this one from Astrid Lindgren:

"When some people think you are
BIG
and some people think you are
SMALL
you might be just the right size."



Materials: The Navy Pier addon from Studio Calico's "Roundabout" kit, Versafine inkpad in Onyx Black

Stromsvigt DT

I have some exciting news for you! Nina Christensen has invited me, together with Margrethe Aas Johnsen, to be part of the DT for Stromsvigt Design. I've already worked with some of her woodblock stamps. And there is more awesomeness on the way, so stay tuned!





Find the stamps I used in Nina's Etsy shop. Other materials are from Studio Calico's Planetarium kit and add-ons. The black ink is Versafine and the yellow is JBS.

Also visit the blogs of Nina and Margethe for more layouts and information.
