"Autumn" for Gothic arches



The theme autumn makes me think orange and "earthy" colours.
Leaves fall down and it's easier to spot the owls. Spiderweb all over and a lot of spiders trying to get in to the house. I don't mind normally but when you see these big ones with long legs... - and they can run fast too...!!!
Scattered straw in the fields and so is the colour from T. Holtz called too.
Stamps from Heroarts, Stampaway and Stampington.
The cuttlebug helped me to make nice leaves and the hat should show you that it is getting colder.
Hope you all like it!



This is my " french corner " that will give me evening shadow in the summer 2010. I have been working with this a long time and finally it is finished. Until a couple of weeks ago we had grass growing here. I love the sun but when it's hot and sticky and NO WIND - I just need some shade... This was my garden project 2009 and next year I will get some "french" chairs...

"let the sun shine" for WS




"Let the sun shine" makes me think of the movie "Hair". I think that was the first time I fell in love...

The background was put through the cuttlebug and later coloured with distress inks.
The stamps have names but I have forgotten what design they are - sorry!
They are called "face", "geometrie" and "hip-hop".

We have still got the most wonderful weather here in Luxembourg and we are told it would stay like this for some days more.
And I am a terrible sun freak so I enjoy every day right now...

I hope you like my arch and maybe you can even feel the beat...

"this DRESS could make her day..." for wednesdaystampers




Sorry for the bad picture - don't know what happened there...
The colours are beautiful in real life!
I used the cuttlebug and my favorite scrap papers.
Stamps are from "stamp away" and "individual stamps".
Hope you like it!

"en älgpuss" = "a moose kiss"




I don't think that I will ever get this close to a life moose again. I thought it might bite me and this made me very uncomfortable. But of course the moose got its apple and I got a horrible picture!

Lones tulips



Passing Denmark (on the way to Sweden this summer )we stopped at some friends - Lone and Steen. Lone has always been very crafty and this time I just had to make a photo of her quilt. I simply adore her tulips. I hope that I will get my patience back to start doing patchwork again...

"red and turquoise" for wednesdaystampers



This weeks challenge on WS is "red and turquoise". I made a frame out of chipbord for Lisas good friend Sarah , who soon will celebrate her 20th birthday. She loves the color turquoise so I had to make this challenge in her name.
Paper from Kelly Panacci (2-of-a-kind).
Stamps from Paperartsy.
The bead was given to me by a friend in Trier this tuesday. Amazing how it all fits together...
