hi ladies,

just checking in to give you my newest dailys :)

I scrapped day 17-20 at one page - because there was nothing super special


# 52

and over at w&w we received our hodgepodge-give away by Gina.
you can link her up every sunday to your weekly page and if you made it, you will get something for free which can be purchased later at the shoppe. I immediately felt in love with the new goodies and they were perfect to participate in the challenge: self portrait! so here it is, my day 21

here are two pages I did with the new goodies


# 50

for your information

I just wanna let you know with Life 365 I realized how important it is to me to scrap the daily memories.

so I really will go on with my goal of doing 365 and this could probably mean:
you wont see so many artistic pages made by me.

I really struggled the last days to do a page just for doing a page kwim?

I thought a few of you could be wondering what's up so I decided to let you all know I am going to tell a story with my pages. if the result will be a little piece of art I am more than happy - but first of all: I will capture those daily memories.

I am so curious how my 365 book will look when that year comes to it's end. I know this year is still young but I am really excited about all my daily pages I've done so far and it's also great to look over my last 3 week pages. every week is pinned on our board and it's great to read about what we did 10 days ago - this could be my pic for today LOL

here is my daily for yesterday - we had playtime for about 4 hours and it was so much fun. it is always special for my kids if I am gonna play games with them. it's not my favorite thing but today we all had fun and that's of course a moment to capture!

day 19

just adding my pic of the day. baghira, having a little nap while cuddling under the blanket. and no, we didn't put her under the blanket. she made it by her own LOL

day 20


and here is something curious for you - go and check it out

here's another page I did - but this page wasn't taken by DAM and now I am finally allowed to upload it


# 32

I am not happy with both of them - but okay, as I did them months ago it happens...

happy to be

hi readers,

I am happy today!
first thing today was: I saw an angelwing!

yep!

soé looked outside the window and said: mummy, mummy, look - instinctively I took the cam and run outside to do a shot. I didn't realize what I really saw. I just thought it's the morning rize on it's way through the clouds. but as I looked on the photo on my computer I really saw: it's an angelwing!

so here is my pic of the day

day 13


you should have a closer look at the bigger version here

and the matching thing is: my calendar for today says something like: confidence



so I really think it couldn't be any better!

as we are talking of Life 365 here are my latest photos

day 11


day 12


my cat - hiding behind my calender which says something like: resolve conflicts ;)

and another one for day 12 because it was my sons first day of school after christmas holidays


°°°
what's new around?

I am still super excited about Life 365 by Gina Marie Huff at w&w and I did some pages

here is my week 2 page


# 31

I am still not sure with what I will go til the end of the year. so funny to talk about it since the year just started. I will continue to do a page for every day, every week, every month. so I can easily decide at the end of 2009 which book I wanna have printed LOL

while the year goes on I print every weekly page and pin it to our board at home. it's super nice to have a look at last weeks experiences. I never thought how fast we forget. ask yourself: what did you do last wednesday?????

so now, you know what I am talking about LOL

so these weekly pages help us to remember. it's a nice treat through the new week.

and here is a page I did for my son. he was enjoying his ice-cruising day with his best friend


# 30

and here is day 10 as we enjoyed our bowling trip


# 29

day 11 - as Mo has to read... the holidays are over and he didn't read till 3 weeks now. it's not easy for him so I wanted to show him with my page: you can find the way baby - even if you try to


# 28

and this is what I made with nathy's new goodies - just loving this kit!


# 27

just a reminder for the guest-call by Dawn Inskip - you can still apply and don't forget to leave your guess for her new store. you can win all her goodies for two months!

I revealed a little secret of how I can do so many pages over at vera lim's blog. did you read it already? you can win a little something!

okay, I think I am done for today. I have to scrap my last two days and I really want to!

so be inspired and go ahead!
with all my love,

Life 365 is up - wooHoo!!!!

I think you've been waiting as long as I did
of course, as a site girl I got the chance to work with it a few hours earlier than you, but that all doesn't matter because it's now up and you all can grab it right away



just hoppe right over to the shoppe here and grab the discount for today
there's also two free quickpages for your frontcover!

and while you are there, take a little stop at the w&w-blog and check out the tutorial, the freebie and everything new about the 365 stuff.

it's so much fun and I can tell you Gina has outdone herself again!!!

here are two pages I already did


# 26


# 25

the challenge for me is to focus just on the photos and the journaling. so I am really trying hard to stick with only a few elements.

right now I am working on my week 2 page - I am still not sure how my 2009 book should look like. will I go with days, weeks, months? so I decided to do them all LOL - I will continue to do a page of each day, each week and of course of each months. I can decide at the end of year which I wanted to have for my book LOL

so ladies, I really encourage you to check this out!
you are not to late! jump in every day!
10 days missed are even better than 350 days missed - kwim!!!

just a photo each day - it will take you only a few seconds but it gives you such a great memory when you look back.
you don't have to scrap your photos. you can just plug them in in Gina's templates and add a little note what was important on that day. that's all. and the Life 365 goodies makes it so easy to do that in a few minutes! check it out!!!

maybe you are thinking I am a crazy promotion woman, of course I am - but these words are coming super straight from my heart. I am in looooove with Life 365 and as it is my goal for 2009 I will continue!

while I talk to you again about 365 here are my photos

here is day 8


day 9


day 10




°°°

now to another great excitement: you can win the entire store of Dawn Inskip's new shoppe for two months!!!! yes, you read right: for two months!!!! just post your guess in this DST-thread and cross your fingers ;) - I can tell you: it's a great and amazing store! can't wait to shout it out loud ;)

also we are still looking for guests. we added a lot during the last days, but will have open the thread during the next weeks and I will have a closer look into the galleries from each and everyone who posts there.

°°°
I have to tooot again.

so I started right away yesterday and scrapped two layouts with her creations

finally we got snow - life 365 and new goodies

hi ladies,

back again with the second new look of the year LOL
I struggled with all the cutie things on my last background because as I told you, I wanted to have it a little more clear and simple.

I got inspired by cherry's new blog-outfit and changed mine again. now I am okay with it!

guess what?
we finally got our first snow!
and that's my day 5 pic of Life 365



needless to say that kiddos are out - enjoying the snow before it will disappear! they promised a kind of sibirien cold for us here in germany and started warnings on the radio: don't drive if you don't need to. they say the snowfall will stop during the next hours and everything will freeze. we will get temperatures of -15 grad - and that's 10 grad colder than we have normally on winters time here at the bergstrasse.

glad if you can stay inside, just watching everything through your closed window LOL

I got another pic for today - the starsingers



they were so great. bless them!

as for the Life 365 check out my blog-post over at the w&w blog
it's so much fun to jump in. so come on girls, give it a go.

it's my resolution for this year! I really have to do a resolution page therefore!

I am still struggling with how to organize my pics. at the meantime I load them to flickr but I couldn't figure out how to do a slideshow with the pics there. do you have any glue? just let me know please!

°°°

finally dawn's new goodies arrived in her stores at PBP and NDISB



those are so fun and bright, I immediately felt in love with!

here is what I did so far


# 12

I scrapped my day 1 photo!


# 11

and dawn scrapped my beloved baghira - look here



I am sure you can need a few goodies which brightens your grey days. so hop over to her stores and grab it!

I managed some more pages the other day. I am really loving the winter-holidays. I am laying the whole night on my couch and scrap - no need to wake up early. we still have another week of holidays here in germany. I really enjoy them.

so here are my pages


# 10


# 9

I am totally in love with this page. it has such a special mood to me.

°°°


# 8

the total mess of my DDs room...

°°°


# 7

it's really cold outside

# 6

aren't jeans the best clothes to wear?

°°°


# 5


# 4

new year - new look


happy new year everyone!

hope you have had a wonderful start into 2009!
wishing you all the best - may your dreams come true but first of all: stay healthy!

I spent the whole day to do a relaunch of my blog. yes I know, I told you I will do it way clean and simple this time, but I struggled. with having all these fab new goodies I couldn't resist LOL

also I spent hours to figure out how to edit and delete my labels. finally I found out there isn't all shown at the dashboard with firefox. so i had to change to IE and after all that, I could manage everything!

I think I will never figure out to have the right background-size. it's repeating behind my posting area and I can't change it. if I go in the HTML with "no-repeat" it doesn't work either. if you are having any idea: please let me know!

°°°
2008 I ended up with 660 layouts and they are all uploaded to DST. now I wanna do an album at my DST-gallery but it seems I have to add every single page. so sorry, I wont do that ;( - I asked over there but didn't receive any answer right now. anybody any idea?

so now I will show you my first pages for 2009


# 3


# 2


# 1

this page is mentioned at the GSO

btw: did you enjoy all the new year's parties around digiland?
I won so many things - just unbelievable!

°°°
I decided to participate in project 365 this year.

gina is coming up with some gorgeous things to make it easier for us to take part. check out the w&w blog daily for more information.

I already took my two pics.did you?

°°°
they choosed the winner of this years YIR page over at the standoutsblog. someone submitted my page as well. I was super surprised.

I think I am done for today. I really will enjoy a little scrapping right now!

have a fab day!
