LAST SATURDAY IN MARCH

Oaky - then it's settled - we're leaving for The Promised Land the last Saturday in June - heading for Chicago Air Port - O'Hare - Illinois.
We have to drive trough Wisconsin and Minnesota for our first main stop - Rapid City in South Dakota.
Mount Rushmore - Deadwood in The Black Hills are among the places we hope to visit.
In Wyoming, The Devils Tower and Cody are on the top ten list .........................so far.

Interstate 90 from Illinois to Washigton State

This layout did I made for The Grand Prix Competition on Scrapbook Express. It should be straighten lines and only two stashy embellishments. I scanned and printed the American Flag in grey on white bazill- then I wrote some words about August and September 1977 - added a picture in black and white - me leaving Norway for Seattle.
And the little Norwegian Flag - I got it from my mom when I left - she has also taken the picture.

AN ORDINARY WEDNESDAY IN MARCH

Hello - there's a competition at Scrapbookexpress.no called Grand Prix!

The first challenge was to make a - cluster - layout.

Horrible!

I do like to use the whole 12 x 12.......................
But a competition is a competition.

And this is my cluster layout.

Grand Prix 2009 oppgave 1 Cluster

En stor utfordring - jeg scrapper over hele kartongen -

så det å samle alt i en klynge - det var ufordrende - men det var også spennende.

Kartongen er fra K&Company - ancestry.com collection.

Notearket - taggen og journalingen samt båndsnellen

er "vasket" i Red Cup Nescafè.

Bokstavene - de små er tiny alphabets fra makingmemories.com

Notearket har også fått en omgang med "Pink ink" glimmermist fra mytatteredangels.com

Swirvelen er grungeboard fra timholtz.com - den og overskriften ME er malt med "Ruby" fra makingmemories.com - drysset med sugar coating "bon bon glitter" fra doodlebug design inc

Blomstene er fra primamarketinginc.com - de er mishandlet med diamond glaze og blank embossing overstrødd med bon bon glitter.

Nål fra pandurohobby.no - tilsatt perle og strass.

Bånd - tyll og hyssing fra skuffer og skap.

Bildet har vært innom photoshop - jeg aner ikke hva jeg har gjort med det

- men synes selv det ble ganske stilig!!

Alt er selvsagt vandalisert med min skrubb og

min nesten uttørrede stemplepute "vintage sepia"
