From paper to digital

Endelig er jeg ferdig med John Christians første bok. Det har vært en utfordring med tanke på at alle bildene var av dårlig kvalitet og i papir. Men endelig er jeg ferdig med den første boken. :)

*****

Finally I am finished with John Christian's first book from 1998-1999. It have been a challenge.

With poor quality in the photos and they all where in paper.

Now I am so happy to have it finished- as a digital book!

The Final Points

This is one YEAH!! and HURRA!! after another these days. But I have to share the fact that I made the 4.th place in the SUTUCS. Only 7 points behind number three. And it really makes my day, it does not matter that I didn't win anything, I am so happy to actually perform as good as that. :) *Happydance*

Scrappers Choice Awards

I am so happy, I was nominated in the category of themed AAM page, and I won the category. I am over the moon. I have a hard time with all of these layouts about myself. They are so difficult to do. Much easier to scrap about anything else than myself. *sigh* And becouse of that it makes me happy that other appreciate those layouts. I am determined to implement all of the challenges on the SPD about All about me challenges this year.

..and I was honorable mentioned with this:

in the nominated best scraplift. Could it be any better?

well - YES!!!

it could becouse this layout:

is one one of the pickle picks this month as well. (the same challengegroup as the AAM page at SPD). And make a layout about my own birth for about half a life ago - without any photos - was a very tricky. LOL

Toot for me......

"So you think you can scrap?"

Jepp - think I can...

Isn't this one of the sweetest thing from our small boys? They can be a pain and overactive, and drives you complete "nuts", and then this moment happens - soooo incredible sweet moment. I love it - and it will always be one of those unforgetable moments.

Project 52 - week 16

My week 16 picture - I love this photo - just to bad my oldest DS got blurry- but he makes funny faces ( atleast he think so) in every photo. So it had to be this one or terrible "funnyfaces".
You can see the rest of my project 52 here. It is norwegian though - but who need language when it coms to photos. ;)
