2 deco entries made today

I am free from work this week and i had all these plans like working on my swaps, write leters and do some deco's.
I managed to write some letters last night ( i keep my pals waiting way too long, sorry for that!!)
and tonight i worked on 2 deco's, i am not satisfied with the autumn one but i do like the christmas one.

I hope you all have a wonderfull Christmas and all the best wishes for 2009.
Thanks a lot for visiting my blog.
Love Jolanda

Our Christmastree

Well, here it is, our huge tree, my boyfriend thought our house was a bit bigger, :-)
It does look great such a big tree in the house and the kids love it too, i always love the smell of a real tree in the house, i will miss it when it is gone after new years.

A deco page i made today, a little basic but i think it is nice anyway.

This one i also made today.

This weeks update

I thought it was time to update what i received this week, i sometimes forget to take photo's of swaps and other stuff i received but this time i did think about it. Above there is a photo of the cardkit i receive every month, the paper is lovely double sided and great for winter deco's or fb's.
I also signed up for 3 more card kits, i just love them!!

A personal swap i received from my Dutch friend .




What a great surprise it was when i opened the envelope with these great fb's and i LOVE the paper, thanks!!

A Lovely swap i received via a groupswap, i really like the fb's, great job!!

As you could have read before i recently bought a cuttlebug, ebay USA is a cheap way for me to get some new dies and this one i received this week. I use my cuttlebug a lot.

Some Millimits fb's i made via a group swap, i hope that my Dutch friend likes them.

Ok, this was all for now, we will decorate the christmas tree this weekend so i will try to make a photo of it. Have a great weekend!

Bye.

My new Toy!!

Here it is!! My new toy, i am soooo happy with it.
I sold my cricut because i hardly used it, it was standing all alone here upstairs and because of that i hardly used it so i made up my mind and sold it, i only have one cartridge left for sale.

I bought this little green monster and it works great, i can put it away with all my other craft stuff and the dies are not that expensive either.
I bought 2 alphabets and some flower dies, check out the photo's.

I made some butterfly fb's this weekend, they were for a groupswap. They are on their way to Germany now!
We had a very nice weekend, nothing special planned , just relaxing wich was nice for a change.
The sad thing is that our freezer broke down, luckaly we discovered it before all the food was defrosted.
Have a great week everybody!!

deco and fb's

Finaly i found some time to make a few fb's and a deco, they all are for groupswaps and i think they turned out nicely.

I only have to cover the fb's and they are ready than to travel to the USA.

Have a great Sunday everybody!

deco entry

Yesterday i made this deco entry for a panny black deco, i love these stamps they are so funny and cheerfull.

again...... i made a pie

Here is the pie i made today. I bought some apples Friday but they were too sour for me so i had to think of a way to "use"them so i thought i made a pie, i also put peaches in it, i used a ready to use dough. This pie is not as good as the other one i made last week but it turned out ok.

little update

In my last message i promissed a little update, unfortunatly one of the photo's didn't turn out well so i can not show it.
Above there is the 50 gr swap i received via a yahoo swap.

Here is the yummie appliepie i made myself, i love applepie, sometimes i also put nuts in them than it is even more yummie.

A lovely deco i received via a deco group.

Busy, Busy

Hi,

Sorry for not updating earlier!
I have been very busy over here, we had so much to do last weekend that there was no time to prepare swaps or write any letters. Saturday we celebrated my boyfriends birthday and on Saturday i started to make cake and other snacks. I made a photo of one of the cakes and i will put it in here later, tomorrow i think.
Saturday also my parents came over for dinner and my oldest son had to do a swimtest for a diploma wich he did sooooo great! I am proud of him.

Yesterday and today i worked so there was no time for swaps either, i hope things will slow down a little bit so i can do some crafty stuff.
Time to go now, i have to get ready to go, i will go to the cinema with a friend.

Bye, Bye

Deco's i made for a group swap
