Mojo-come back!

Hello bloggers,

bad news for me: no mojo, a nasty cold, tiredness..... I just keep saying: it's temporary!

I tried to make a LO with the pictures of us: my son and me on the South African beach in the winter: between 15-20 degrees Cel, hahaha!. Great time!
The palette was very interesting, so I wanted to see how is it to make something with lack of inspiration with the great combo of colors. Honestly: the result is not that bad. My hubby said: I have seen better LOs of you.  Yes, I know, but sitting in my studio gives me also a balance and a new energy, doesn't matter how good the LO or card becomes. Even when I clean my desk only, I am happy in my little crafty corner!

I will enter the LO for the TCR #80 and Bird Is The Word challenge, with the title You & Me:

I hope, I didn't hurt your eyes ;)

Take care,

Organizing ribbons-mission accomplished!

Hi there,

EDIT: This LO below was featured on the Play Date Cafe Challenge blog, yupppi!!!

I don't know, who could pass on this challenge, but I could not: The Play Date Cafe #101 with these pictures as an inspiration. I knew immediately which picture has to be "framed". It was taken on my Birthday recently in a Caribbean Cafe Shop in Cape Town. The whole ambiente was inspiration enough for me, despite the cocktails on the menu.Well I couldn't drink them (I am breastfeeding right now, so the cocktails have to wait at least half a year!), but the atmosphere was delightful!

This is my interpretation-I hope, you like it!

I also found through Cathy Cafun the new monthly(!) scrapbooking blog, which I think, it's pretty cool and I can imagine to play there on regular basis: Kraft it up! 

This month you need to create a layout using one of the following styles...
* Monochromatic
* Minimalist
* Vintage/Romantic/Shabby Chic

Guess which one, I have chosen....???? Of course Vintage! I tried to make also a minimalistic LO, but I have to work on this techinique, there are so many fun things you can add to the LO.

Yesterday I promise you to show, how I organized my ribbons. What do you think? I have to say, that's the method until now, that works the best for me. I tried different kind of stuff, but this is the real McCoy! The three pretty glasses contained Jacob's instant coffee before. I have to drink more coffee now to have more of them to accommodate other colors ;)))) No problem with that, cause I confess, I am a coffee junky!!!

Now I have to run and learn French (my target during the maternity leave!)

Cheerio,

Mojo Monday #208

Hello,
after a big organizing project of my studio, mostly ribbons, (next time I promise pictures of the end effect),  I managed to make a card based on Mojo Monday #208 sketch. I did the rectangle shape though as you noticed, because I have 1000 ;0) envelopes in this shape and no square ones. 

Hope you like. Now I have to run, cause someone has to take control of the chaos here, hahaha!

I am soooooo glad to find Moxie Fab World, so many gorgeous  pictures, so many interesting articles, and what I like mostly are their challenges: Tuesday Trigger my favorite and now the square, horizontal and vertical challenges. Cath, the editor, is full of ideas! WOW!

I play the square (although my cards are a kind of rectangle-I don't have the square envelopes to send them...=0(....) and horizonal:

 The sketches for the challenges look like this. I just say: endless possibilities. I keep the sketches in my "archive" ;0)

Take care and thanks for stopping by,

The Waltzingmouse at the Play Date Cafe

Hello my dear bloggers,

please take a look at the card, which I entered for the Waltzingmouse Sketch (#64) and the Play Date Cafe (#98) challenges:

 

I really like, how the card turned out, particularly the background.

Have a great rest of the week,

The messy Sketchy Thursday 9.8.

Hello,

you may wonder lately about my LOs, why they are so "messy". I am experimenting a little bit with my style right now ;0)

This LO is about Jakob pretending flying our Piper. He is a little pilot already! He sees everywhere airplanes and helicopters. That's his world!

I had a lot of fun with the Sketchy Thursdays Sketch 9.8 sketch, using my fave Basic Grey design papers:

Hugs from Cape Town,
