HURT for the Q&L challenge

Another journal page for the Quote&Lyric challenge at the craft barn. I chose the word "hurt" and went with the quote  "It hurts to let go, but sometimes it hurts even more to hold on..."

I used one of my favorite stamps from Stampotique together with some of my favorite stamps from my good friend Jaine (she designs stamps for Sarah Hurley).

Other items to mention ;
Ledger stencil, arrow  stencil, colours from Faber Castell and distress inks.

Hope you like it!

Wish you all a nice week!

another mini scrapbook - summer

Using a SODAlicious journal booklet as a base, I prepared the pages before the BIG "getaway".

As long as we were still at home, I could stamp and fill the pages.

While we were away, I used tickets and other ephemera to fill the backgrounds and later adding the photos.

...still using tickets and numbers...

still at home

Washi tape is a very good thing to bring on holidays!

I also used cutouts and journal tags from Sarah Hurley.

Kesi art stamps and S. Hurley

I love this little book - it was very easy to bring and because it was well prepared, it was easy to fill aswell. A very nice memory and a very good way of using all these gorgeous tickets and information from the actual trip!

Take care out there and don't forget to drink - very important in this heat!

The letter Y for the craft barn.

Time pass.
Right now the wheels turn pretty fast in my/our life;

We didn't have any warm water for almost a week, my basement was occupied by workers . Our youngest daughter had like a crisis - it isn't easy beeing 16 years old, beautiful and still don't believe in yourself. I remember that that time in my life was a very difficult time aswell - I wanted to be the perfect familygirl, the best student,  the coolest best friend and at the same time having doubts about life.

So this blogpost is about who YOU are...

This is my entry to the alpha dictionary challenge at the craft barn  where we should use the letter Y.... ( and one girl has got yellow hair - the twist for this challenge).

I'm lucky to have a very creative friend (Jaine) , who is a design team member for different companies ( like sizzix, Sarah Hurley, ASOI...). Last week she had her own stamps made and I was allowed to try them out. Here, on this journal page, her stamp is the girl with an attitude, dressed like one did in the 80th. Other stamps used are from PaperArtsy, Sarah Hurley, ILS and Hero Art. If you want to check out whatever else Jaine's doing, pls visit her blog here.

Wish you all a nice week!
