Going, going, going .... well tomorrow anyway

Last day in England - spent it shopping crafty stuff ..... YEAHHHHH. Great shops over here - much bigger range than I'm used to.

Been looking at stuff for hybrid crapping - something I haven't really done before, but I'm certainly going to when I'm back in Denmark. So I'll show you when I've done a few things.

I've picked up so many ideas for designs, so I've had to make a list to pick from, and I keep adding to it. Don't think I'll end up doing all of them, but let's see what happens in the future.

It has been really nice being here, but now I'm also happy than I'm going back and looking forward to seeing my family again - I quite miss them now. So tomorrow I'm travelling to London Stansted and then home ... grateful for cheap flights *ggggg*.

I've also admired a really nice craft room while I've been here - haven't got one at home, but I think I'll have to find a way to make one some time in the near future *lol*.

I'm really getting in to designing, and I've even signed up for some blogtrains, so keep looking in here - there'll be choo choo's here in the future. I'll tell you more about it later.

Not much scrapping today

I'm leaving for England on monday and will be gone for 10 days - all on my own without my family, so today has been all about the family and getting ready to go, and I haven't been doing much scrapping.

But I still have some news .... My "Big dOO" LO was selected LO of the week over at Misses BeeHaven ... yeahhh and what an honour to be picked from all the terrific LO that are posted in their gallery every single day.
I also forgot to tell you that I won a speed scrap at Polka Dot Plum earlier in the week with this LO:

I always LOVE to win challenges, so I'm happy :)

Since I'm now a CT for 2 great designer I have also been preparing and downloading stuff to take with me on the computer, so I can uploaded a bunch of stuff when I come back ... cause I'm not sure if I will be able to get online while I'm away.

Tomorrow we are going to a family function all day, and I always love to see the whole family and it is also a great opportunity to grab some shots so I might have a lot of new photos to scrap with afterwards.

I've got nervous ticks ...

I haven't been able to log on to the control panel for my blog for 2 WHOLE DAYS - so I have had to work of my nervous ticks doing something other than blogging ... ARGGGHHHH *ssss*

Well I haven't been sitting still - I've been working ... yes for real WORKING.

Here is what I've been doing:
- so many challenges all over the web, that I don't even remenber how many and the exact places :).
- I had new front tires put on my car - and even had to go back because one of them went flat over night (they did something wrong, so I didn't have to pay them again - YEAH).
- Babysitting my wonderful grandson. I got some great shots of him sleeping all tucked up on the couch. Will surely do LO's later.
- I broke my toe .. I'm great at breaking something or getting my self hurt. It's been like that since I was a little kid.
- changed the bedding on beds all over the house.
- dusted of, vacuumed and washed the floors, cleaned the bathrooms.
- altered a dress, so I had something "new" to wear for the family function we're going to on sunday.
- made a list for what I'm packing in my bag .... I'm going "home" to England on monday, and will be gone for 10 days ... all on my own - SO EXCITED.

- got an invite for a job interview ... so cross you fingers every one :-)

AND last but not least... TA DAAAAAA
I'm now CT'ing for Tree City Studio and Kreen Kreations. Both great designers with beautiful kits of digi stuff. I am really looking forward to working with these things.
I allready made my 2 first LO's for TCS using the "Monkey pee, Monkey doo" collab kit.
Here are my LO's:

Great challenges - really enjoyed them

I've just completed the 2 challenges over at freedigitalscrapbooking.

Here are my LO's

This was a scraplifter challenge with a template

And this was for the club kit challenge - so all the paper and embellies were given.

I really thought it would be a bigger problem than it ended up being.

QP for a blog challenge

I found this small challenge over at todaysscrapbyvickyday.blogspot.com and I just had to do it. I liked the mini kit so much that I ended up doing 3 QP's instead of one ... wooops :)
