New from Dawn and Faith

It's October 2 - and it's snowing outside!!! Can you belive it! Granted it's wet snow - almost rain, but it sure falls into the snow category!!! With the temps at 2°C and windy, it definitely feels like winter is coming WAY too early!! We are supposed to have horrid weather today, but hopefully better tomorrow - but this is just not good, even for cold old Iceland LOL

Anyways, Dawn Inskip is guest designer over at ZigZag Scrap this month. Yesterday she released a fabulous kit called This Is It...

I made this with it...This is Matthildur Inga, my three year old, playing cards with Lovisa Lin, her almost 7 year old older sister :) My girls don't always get along really well - at least, I wish sometimes that they didn't fight as much as they do. However, once in a while, they get on famously - and this is one of those times. I was making dinner, and usually around that time, Matthildur is really tired from her long day and is having all sorts of issues. Lovisa, also tired from a long day, does everything in her power to make sure Matthildur is screaming LOL However, this night, Lovisa all of a sudden offered to teach Matthildur how to play a game of Go Fish - and this worked out perfectly!! Lovisa got to boss Matthildur around, and Matthildur just reveled in the attention she was getting from her much admire older sister :) It was a win win situation!!! Now why they don't do this every night, I'll never understand LOL

Faith True is releasing a new kit today at the Orchard. It's Fresh Fruit Friday at Scrap Orchard, so make sure you check it out :) Faith's kit is called Fresh Ideas and it's absolutely fabulous!!!

Here's a layout I made with it, also using a template by Jennifer Fox who was guest designer at the Orchard in September (can't believe it's October already!!!)This is Lovisa Lin in September 2005 - when there was yet to appear an irritating younger sister LOL Lovisa has always loved to paint and draw and color - she is pretty artistic, and takes it very seriously!! When she was little she loved to sit by the kitchen table and make art with her watercolors. She still does it from time to time, but right now she's more into projects of any kind. I think that she dislikes the mess that Matthildur makes when they paint and prefers projects where it's just her doing it, with my help, rather than something they do together :)

Ok, Katrin is having a sale in her Scrap-Dreams store...hurry on over, you'll get 40% off today, but the discount gets lower in the next couple of days until the sale is over...

Well, that's it today, my layouts are linked for full credit. I hope you're having a wonderful day and thank you so much for stopping by :)
