I'v been gone for too long

It has been allmost 3 weeks since my last post so a lot has been going on. 

The 21st of may i went to "Livsstilsmesse på Ledreborg".

It is a really beautiful place, filled with lots of beautifull things (very overpriced things). The weather was ok, but not great, so i didn't take that many pictures. 

The carnival came to town, and Benjamin had his very first ride in the bumper cars. 

...and his very first ride down the big slide - the girl next to him is my best friends daughter, Kamille.

In-between all this i had to prepare for my art exam. Which meant making two Red ridinghood collages. In the process i learned (my self) how to embroider, I'm not sure I'm doing it right, but I am pretty satisfied with the result - see pictures below.

Yesterday was exam day, so i put up all the art work i have made in class for the past two years.

...and the exam project.

This is my Jim Houser paraphrase (yes also Red ridinghood)

The whole thing!

I past the exam, not greatly, but I'm ok with the grade.

Today we are going to a summer-party at the kindergarden! So i have just baked 40 pigs in a blanket...

Scrap-a-mania - where my money went..

Dream street papers

Basic Grey - Offbeat

Basic grey - Dasher

I also bought some ribbons and paperflowers and some great retro christmas papers. And i think i spend about 300kr. Which is ok. We also saw this scrapbox,I have to say it got american written all over it. With the small houses we got in Denmark you have to have a very understanding husband to get one of these. And i also think that my supplies would only fill up 4 drawers. 

I have actually allready begun using the BG Offbeat papers. I took on the september challenge at Scrapsisters.dk . So i can't show my LO here yet, but you can see it here remember to vote for me :-)

And a sad story (for me). I have to go to the dentist today i broke a tooth yesterday, and luckily for me it its a tooth which i, a couple a years ago, got a root canal in (isn't that what it is called when they kill the root?), because of that i'm not in that much pain. All though my pocket is going to hurt when i have to pay for the crown the have to put on it (5000-7000kr) I could go on a two weeks vacation for the money or pay half on the camera a really want to buy, but no it all goes to one little tooth in the far back of my mouth (do i really need it?)

It's been way to long...

OMG, it feels like months since i last posted something. My picture of the day project...what can i say, for the last month or so, i haven't really felt that inspired. So there will be a lot of blank post if I am going to follow through with it. I actually think that it will be as much of a challenge for me not to. I am the kind of person who hate blank spaces in a collection, I have to have it all... 

Right now I dont know, what i want to do, I am not going to force my self to post bad pictures (which has happened), just so i can post something. I must be better with just one great photo than five bad ones. 

What have i been up to:

I have started school again.

I been on a day-long wedding photoshoot ( A nice couple - Ulrikke and Søren)

Yesterday we had some friends over for dinner 

And today i am going to Scrap-a-mania right here in my home town. Its a big gathering of scrappers and scrapbooking supplies sellers. I haven't been to Scrap-a-mania before, but i hope to get som great inspiration and to meet my E-mail friend Annika!

Tonight we are going to dinner at some friends house.

I allmost forgot to to tell you about the greatest thing, i finally got a desk in the living room and my sweet boyfriend made it for me out of an old dinner table, it looks beautiful and perfect for our living room. Going to take som pictures soon for you to see.

A new pic of Benjamin

That must be it for now. Will be back soon with some new pix and maybe more from Egypt!
