One tired little guy

I made this LO some time ago for Scrappejungelen but handed it in before I got to take a picture of it. It was so funny, it has been on display in the shop, but when I saw it again I did not remember making it. So when I saw it there I was wondering who had made it. And then I recognised Oliver :lol:

The picture was taken last spring. Oliver had been to one of his first birthday parties. It is usually Ella who gets invitations for those, as she is a little older. So he was SO proud when his very own invitation was in our mailbox. For the week leading up to his party he was asking every day how long it would be before the party. When the day finally arrived he was SO happy. After the party he was exhausted. It was Ellas birthday that day as well so we had family over at home too. But Oliver was so tired. He fell asleep in his shirt and everything, and ended up sleeping through to the next day! So cute!

Your first tooth

Ella was so proud when she lost her first tooth in November. The second one followed just a few days later :-) She has been bragging about her loose teeth since the summer. But because she had something with her heart we were worried she could get bacteria into her bloodstream or that the loose teeth could be a problem when she was to be intubated. So, even though this was a proud time for her, we were not as exited. But her heart was fixed in September, so when she finally lost her first tooth in November we could all share her happiness. She put her tooth into a glass of water. And then the Toothfairy came and changed the tooth into money :-)So the text is about that.

This LO kind of took on a life of its own :lol: I do not really recall what my plan was, but certainly not this :lol: I am currently reading "The Virgin Blue" by Tracy Chevalier where there is a burnt out bible left in a secret compartment in the chimney. In the book the bible still contains important information to the story. So I was inspired by that. The text paper is from October Afternoon, and is SO usable. Also I have seen Oddbjørg do something simular with old bookpages and loved the effect. But this page kindof kept morphing into something else evertime I went near it. It has been on my desk the last few days, and I have done bits and pieces here and there when I had a few minutes :lol: I find it a bit unfamiliar to not have any "white space". But there simply where not any room left in the end :lol: I guess this was not so easy to scrap for me, both because of the memories and because I do not often use that many picture on a single LO ;-)

God jul!

Merry Christmas! Now Christmas Eve is just hours away. The kids are watching Christmas movies in their PJ's. So I wanted to take this opportunity to wish Merry Christmas to anyone who might stumble upon my blog today!

God Jul! Nå er det bare timer til den store kvelden. Ungene ser julefilmer i pysjamasene sine. Jeg håper alle får en fin jul med familiene sine!

Klem,
Hanna

I hold you - In my heart

This years christmas card pictures just arrived from the photographer, and I just had to make a LO. I have this thing for Christmas and snow PP. So after a few years of scrapping I have quite a selection, there are not that many Christmas and snow LO's every year. Not compared with all the lovely patterned paper that comes out. And then I ended up doing this LO without Christmas paper :LOL: But then Ella's Christmas dress fit so well with this paper from MM.

I worked it over with glimmer mist and distress stickles. So fun! I used a Prima felt gate to frame the picture, and just cut out the middle of it. Will use that later some time ;-)
