homecoming 2007

A LO I did about the day Kepa came home from his 4 month deployment to the middle east.
Ein LO um uns an den Tag zu erinnern an dem Kepa nach 4 Monaten im mittleren osten endlich wieder heim kam.
Un LO pour nous souvenir du retour de Kepa qui etait parti 4 mois au moyen orient.
Un LO del dia quando Kepa volvio de 4 meses en el oriente medio.

pure love

This is a Layout I made for a PACS challenge - we were supposed to use die cuts (my title cut with the silhouette) and shape scissors (look at the details around the bottom side cut with Fiskars scissors). Being pregnant again (Phoenix just turned 7 in December) I wanted to remind myself about the precious baby moments we had with Phoenix.

This is a LO that I created in a class by Denise Laborde during PACS 2008 last October. If you know me you will surely be aware of my aversion to WHITE pages/paper - on Denise's version there was a lot more white space - I thought the color scheme was perfect for this 2003 photo of Phoenix with Mickey and Minnie.

Tattoo number 3 finished

I dug out some old photos and made a double LO about getting my 3rd Tattoo at the Tattoo Convention in Amsterdam in 1994.

so I dug out some old photos and came across these from 1994 when I got my 3rd Tattoo I will post the LO when its completed. Oh yeah the trophy is real by the way ;-)

farewell 2008

bye bye crappy year that you were - for me at least...

looking forward to a more positive 2009, so much will change, we will welcome a new family member in mid-July and for the rest - hoping for the best during the more challenging times ahead...

2007 was better - lets reminisce a bit
