Stash Additons!

Hello there! As you know I've been on vacation, and I have stashed up on supplies over there!!!!

Now in the Netherlands, supermarkets only mostly sell foodstuffs and toiletries.. So can you imagine my amazement when I walked into Walmart and saw a whole aisle of yarn! I think I shrieked of excitement! And I know fiancé went "oh this is bad" in his head.

So lemme show you what this girl bought!

A few new supplies..

New supplies always make me smile! Whether I buy yarn, paper, fabric or something else for my crafting needs, it always makes me giddy. But the more I get, the more I want.. Paradox?

So what do we have here... Some funky fun lettering! And washi tape! Yay!

And an embroidery starter kit. I've always wanted to learn embroidery, and when I saw this kit on sale, I knew I had to try it!

Oh and some fabrics! Yay! That's another thing I've always wanted to do.. Upgrade my sewing skills. With so many tutorials online, I just couldn't resist these lovely fabrics!

 

How about some scrapbook paper to go with the washi tape! Yummy!

 

Yes.. This does make me happy! Wish you all a lovely weekend!

Scrappy, Smashy Love

Until now I had only 'scrapbooked' our holiday pictures, but my mother-in-law gave me this lovely diary from Happinez.

 

It's already filled with some lovely quotes and pictures, so it's very inviting to fill it with more quotes and pictures, drawings and doodles, etc!

I am always intimidated by the wonderful scrapbook creations I see on internet, but I've decided to treat this diary more as a scrappy smashbook, where I can just smash it all in..

I also got this LG PoPo (Pocket Photo Printer) for Christmas. It connects with your Phone through bluetooth, you can adjust the picture (add borders, filters etc.) and you can print out lovely small pictures immediately!

Below pages show what my head felt like the past 2weeks.. chaotic but happy...

Embrace the smashy-ness!

A new addiction?

Inspired by a friend that was talking about making a scrapbook for her boyfriend, I made my own first scrapbook! We had holiday pictures gathering dust in our house, and I remembered that I also saved al the memorabilia of that holiday.  Airplane tickets, actitivy vouchers, hotel invoices, dinner menu's and so on... So I bought a bit of fancy-paper at the eurostore and I started scrapping!
Here's a peak at my work-in-progress!

 

It's my first scrapbook, so be kind judging me please..

 

Do you scrapbook? I think it's fun! Especially when it's dark and rainy outside, and you're reminiscing about your super-tropical-jungle vacation in Asia!

 

 



This could be a new addiction! How dangerously exciting!
