i scrap my way to feeling better!

the story: my daughters 10th birthday.

the goods: i made a border with basic grey letter stickers at the top. used my circle puncher to punch out a bunch of circles from different scraps of patterned papers.




the story: my sadie dog almost never plays with my husband, or anyone else for that matter...but this day she was in super play mode and even my husband said, this has to go in the scrapbook!

the goods: i used thinkeringink patterned paper for the righthand page. i wanted the pages to look like they belonged together, so i used the dotted patterned paper there too. the journaling was made on my typewriter.




the story: my daughter had a loose tooth forever and for the love of god we couldn´t get it out! we faught and cried over that damn tooth for what seemed forever. then we made an appointment for the dentist and my daughter was so nervous. then as i predicted he just snapped it out of there in like 2 seconds!

the goods: here i took out my heart punch and used some patterned papers (a few are from october afternoon). the label is from åhléns and the smile tag is from a kit i got from a swedish kit club called creative club.




the story: my daughters biological father is an officer and takes care of lfound mines in kosovo at the moment. i wanted to record their letter writing during his absence.

the goods: october afternoon patterned paper strips all scratched and rolled up :)




the story: i took this photo of one of my sunflowers and i thought of it as a suncatcher.

the goods: i took two sheets of paper, sewed the seems on my machine and used my crafters knife to cut outside the seems and lift the edges up. i then used basic grey letter stickers for my title and some rub ons for the rest of the lettering. i cut out the circleword bloom from a patterned paper from k&company.

hm...i acctually do feel better :)
