Little yellow Bicycle's "Generation Z"

Lucky me got to take home the sample package LYB sent the store. Love this new and totally cool line of papers and embellishments. The Paper Niche have ordered in the whole line and it will be in the store as soon as they start shipping. I have also used my new Dymo (with script font) and the Tiny attacher and distressing ink from Tim Holtz. I have another LO in the works but don't think I get to finish it before I head of to Anaheim and CHA <----- YES I'm going =)

Vanilla flavored International Delight Coffee creamer ..
I quit adding this to my coffee after I figured out how many calories I was consuming each day, but once in a while I have to splurge


The boys had so much fun at Extreme Range paint ball ranch





HAVE to get my hands on these papers from We 'R Memory Keepers. They are so yummy and a perfect fit for my baseball and paintball pictures. I need these and the new Graphic 45 papers to arrive in the LSS now today

My fifth favorite is as usual something food related..Coffee creamer does not count :lol:
This week I baked Boller for the kids (and me) I forgot to take a picture so I borrowed this somewhere
Boller is sweet rolls with Cardamom, really yummy by it self or with cheese, they can also be filled with cream or jam.

Pencil Lines sketch # 122

My take on sketch 122 from Pencil Lines. Loved this sketch from Anna so I just had to give it a try. After forking up some $$ and letting my oldest son go to Game night Outland a local video place here, he finally let me get some pictures of him. He is such a handsome young man.

Strength

Look Who's 12

Yes we have a tween in our house...Love this picture i took of him Sunday.

I spent most of yesterday finishing up and taking the pictures for my article about distressing. It will be posted in the article section of Scrapbook Express.no later today. It is in Norwegian, later on I will translate it into English and post it here in my blog.

A page for Sean

Sean wants me to make some sports pages from his games that he can hang in his room. Since it is a typical boys room painted in his football teams colors, we agreed that they would be without all the "stuff"
This is the first one

Scrapping The Music... It's My Life !!!

Found this awesome SB challenge blog..and as always I have a hard time skipping a good challenge. The song was "It's my life" Probably should have scrapped me in my room...but it is a mess and it would have been very embarrassing :lol:
So it became a football LO of my son instead.. During football season the players have little time for anything else

It's My Life ...
