PLEASE UPDATE <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Dear readers!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Lately, I have had quite some trouble with blogspot and I decided to move my blog over to my website.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>

But I really felt like trying something different. The impetus came from my friend MARY who gave me those adorable, tiny lock and key brads. Now, I have been hoarding them for quite a while - something I often do with things I really like. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">When I got the Lifetime Collection from Prima, it was time to use it! Stretching my own style and trying out different things, I came up with these two cards. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I love you to the moon and back. Some stitching, some 3D elements, but all kind of grungy. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG7386_zpsb2bd0b78.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="393" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG7386_zpsb2bd0b78.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">And my second one where I used the lock brad as the flower center. The key together with the tiny staples makes a good combination - not too girly but still cute. </span></span><br />

The Easter bunny had a hard time this year! With snow everywhere, he could not hide the nests outside. So he left a message on the breakfast table with clues where he hid the little surprises. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The Prairie Chic worked perfectly with the clothes and the spring flowers. I cut up the cute scallops and layered them with 3d dots. Some Prima tags and flowers a bit of layering and done. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">When I saw the challenge over at Once Upon A Sketch - it was a perfect match</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">When I first got these Prima papers, I was not quite sure what to do with it. They did not appeal to me the way they were. But when I was looking for something rather neutral, but yet with character to scrap these photos, which don't have a unified color scheme, I was convinced! </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Journaling reads: C and C also need to go out sometimes, so the boys spent the afternoon with us. Such a day is a lot of fun but exhausting! </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I even stamped! (Doesn't happen often....), distressed, layered, added 3 different small flower clusters and added some metal elements. </span></span></div>

finished, DD's class invites the parents for an "end of unit
celebration". I LOVE those! It is so great to see what the kids were
working on and it gives the children a perfect forum to really show what
they have learned. This time it was telling stories and DD's story is
all about a rock star (no surprise!!!) The photos are a bit out of focus
since I only had my cellphone camera and I was in the back of the class,
but it is the memory that counts</span></span></span></span><br />

It was snowing sideways this morning! Sigh. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The kids did not mind. DS found his nest in no time - I need to hide it better next year. Who could guess that a 15 months old is so quick!</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Church was a bit difficult - usually DS takes his morning nap but due to the time change, he was WIDE awake and very.....entertaining. I am so thankful that we have the most patient and forgiving congregation in town. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am going to leave you with an Easter "egg" I made - the idea is from my sister.

Despite the terrible weather, we are outside everyday- otherwise they

tell you how much I am longing for spring. We will hide our Easter eggs
in the mud/snow tomorrow</span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #073763;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Do I need to say more? I am the luckiest mom on earth to have such cute children. If even they test their boundaries again and again and again.....</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">What a wonderful sentiment. It is from Prairie Chic from Bo Bunny. I combined with the older Annalee collection from Prima. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">And a clean and simple mini album for 6 photos. I used tiny magnets underneath the Rosetta to keep it shut even when the photos are in. </span></span><br />

I just loooove this place. It is just from a fairy tale. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I used a mix of Graphics 45 Secret Garden, Prima Annalee and Bo Bunny C'est la vie. My 3 favorite companies all on one page! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I could not resist to add the bird bath to the page - it just had to be there. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">In two weeks, we will be on Easter break. I am so looking forward to it! It is funny and a bit surreal to talk to my colleagues at work (without kids) who will fly to Bahamas, Egypt, Turkey and what not while I..... will probably go to IKEA to get some more boxes to organize the kids room - how things change......</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Since the weather is so bad (predicted snow for Easter, again....) I needed some spring on my scrapping table. This one is based on Unscripted Sketches. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">A year later, this fabulous photo was taken (I only got it a week ago). I am just so thankful to have two healthy, smart and sweet children. I am truly blessed. </span></span><br />

Again, a bit more neutral and masculine.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This one is based on the sketch by Let's capture Our Memories. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The other two cards are a bit simpler, using the same color scheme. </span></span><br />

Something different for me - rather bold and straight. I had fun doing it and it was a good way to capture the adventures of our little girl. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #073763;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #073763;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">She is just like me - loves to climb up everywhere! While DH (who is terribly afraid of heights) felt very uneasy just watching her! </span></span><br />

Bo Bunny<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Yeah - I am so excited. I managed to make 2 (!!!) layouts on the weekend AND I finally got to play with 2 new Bo Bunny collections. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Our children are just so funny! They invent games all the time. Whenever I do laundry (which seems to be all the time), one grabs a pair of socks or similar, sticks it in the mouth and runs around the apartment like crazy. Soon the second one will imitate and after a while they will try to take it away from each other, giggling all the way. I happened to have my camera close by and I took this quick shot. The light is a bit funny but it just shows the fun they had. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The C'est la vie collection from Bo Bunny was a PERFECT match for this photo. The fun elements, the colors, the whole relaxed feel about it. This is not my usual style - but I had fun experimenting!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I based it on the sketch by the most talented Becky Fleck! </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Spring has finally arrived in Vienna! No more snowsuits for my little one anymore!!! YEAH - getting him dressed every morning was like wrestling with an octopus. </span></span><br />

So I sat down the last couple of evenings and made 6. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here is Nr 1. The Challenge from GET CREATIVE - use an envelope on the card. The yellow stone is a real amber that my Dad got on his last vacation. He has realized how important that hobby is to me. What a sweet thought. And as so often, BO BUNNY - TIMEPIECE collection</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6672_zpse5c31e19.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6672_zpse5c31e19.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Nr 2. Frosted Designs. Use Chevron. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6674_zps45f06991.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6674_zps45f06991.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here I used the Summer Collection from Authentique</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Nr 3 Sketch by Artful Delight</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6675_zpse48f52c7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a576/ElisabethB1/CIMG6675_zpse48f52c7.jpg" width="300" /></a></span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Again, the summer collection from Authentique. The stamp is from Technique Tuesday. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">And the last three used Prima Annalee collection. It is not the newest, but I still like it a lot! Really gets my spring feelings going. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I was so happy to finally get my Graphics 45 papers - French Country. It smells so good - so many cute pages perfectly designed for fussy cutting.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The cluster is a combination of all kinds of flowers from my stash. I don't even remember which brands they are. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I fussy cut the sunflower and layered it with 3d foam pads. I had fun playing with the washi tape - crumbling it up for more texture. </span><br />
