Cleopatra

My older daughter: One day when she was supposed to clean up her room, she disappeared, came back wearing her Cleopatra costume and told us that queens never cleaned house! For that they had servants :) I had to laugh - but she still got to clean her room LOLI did this for Lorie Davison's Playday at Scrapbook Graphics...she has a contest - with great prices!! I used Lorie's Artist Faeries (With Everything In It!) and a fab template from Studio Rosey Posey's Layered Template Bundle 01. The stitches are from Dawn Inskip's Pony Club and the alpha is from Thaty Borges' Beautiful Dream.

Go Germany!

My girls are fans of the yearly Eurovision song contest, so we always make a special night of it when it's on. My younger daughter LOVES Lena, the German winner from 2010, so when she found out she was competing again this year, she got really excited and rooted for Germany all the way :) No matter that Iceland was also competing...LOLI used Dawn Inskip's amazing new Germany Collection- a template (which is really more like a layered QP), and amazing alphas, which include all the international characters you'd imagine :)

Walk

My family out on a walk a couple of weeks ago. The photo is horribly blurry, but I realized that there really aren't that many photos of all 4 of us as a family, so we decided to start using the timer on the camera to take photos of all of us. This was the first try, and we found that it was rather difficult to balance the camera on top of lava rocks - so the photo was crooked, cut us off here and there and the only thing in clear focus was the cloud above us LOL But it is a photo of all of us - so I love it and wanted to scrap it :)I used Dawn Inskip's amazing Nature Walk Sunset Collection at Scrapbook Graphics.
Practically perfect in every way!!

The Lion

At the zoo in Des Moines, Iowa in May 2009. It was a rather hot day - at least for us Icelanders :) - and apparently also for the lions, since they just lay in the shade and were too lazy to move.
