We have a couple of new family members and I used the August kit from Cocoa Daisy to create a mini album about them. I love the textured cardstock and I added one of the August DITL cards and some watercolour to create the front page.<br />

I sure did! I think I was constantly writing a letter for a whole bunch of years. I had MANY penpals. Finding a new letter in the mailbox was soooo exciting.<br />
<br />
Penpal is also the name of the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/">August kit from Cocoa Daisy</a>. It's a kit perfect for scrapping the big and small adventures of summer - like our journey earlier this summer. We travelled far, far up north in Sweden.<br />
<br />
The views in the mountans were amazing, even when the weather was cloudy. I love this photo of the kids together.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8567/28535332201_a474c51052_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="634" src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8567/28535332201_a474c51052_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: center;">We did go to the beach, but the weather wasn't exactly perfect for swimming. :) Instead the beach had the best stones for skipping stones. Linus was fab at it! I mostly used the DITL kit here. The cork shapes are lovely. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8611/28581594856_fb80ae3bbd_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="422" src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8611/28581594856_fb80ae3bbd_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also this one was made using the DITL kit. Tuva drinking the cold water running down the mountain. The paper with the mountains is from the patterned paper add on. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We also found some snow to play in. Such a strange feeling, in the middle of summer. I used the main kit plus the Simple Stories cardstock stickers sheet, from the BYOAO. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I also created this layout of Tuva blowing kisses... :) I love the exclusive paper designed by Arleigh so much (the one below the photo)!<br />

It's SUMMER...!!!! Lazy days, crazy days... :) It felt so good to have some time to scrap again after a little break. The July kit from <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/">Cocoa Daisy</a> is called Firefly and it's jam-packed with happy colours that are perfect for summer layouts.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When Tuva had her birthday party, I took photos of all the kids and printed them so that they could scrap with a photo of them selves. This was the photo I took of Tuva - my happy and fabulous birthday girl.</div>

Sunshine in Karlstad is the title of my next layout. I've been travelling to the University three times each semester for two years, and this was the LAST time...! It's been a lot of fun but also a lot of work and it feels so good to be done! </div>

Created for the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/blog/monthly-challenge/23300/march-designers-challenge-say-what/">March Designer's challenge at Cocoa Daisy</a> - this is a layout about things Tuva says. </div>

<span style="line-height: 23.8px;">I used the March kit from Cocoa Daisy for my layout. If you want to play along you have until April 5th and you can use any supplies you like - it doesn't have to be a CD kit. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 23.8px;">The journaling is one of Tuva's long monologues. Or, it’s kind of a dialogue, but I mostly say things like “wow”, “yes”, “ok”, “oh no” etc… and she talks and talks and talks… :) </span></div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; font-family: 'Droid Sans', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">It’s not really possible to translate, but I gave it a try. Perhaps it’s only funny to me.</span></div>

<span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">“If you die you don’t start living again. Unless it’s a game/play. Sometimes when we are playing and someone dies, and then live again, we pretend that you turn into a lion or a tiger or another dangerous animal. I don’t like that because I can only say “wooooaaaa” and no other animal. I can’t sound like a bear, only a tiger or a lion.</span></div>

I've almost forgotten how to post to this blog. ;) But today it is happening - yay! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I think many of us have periods where we are crazy about a certain technique or supply or style etc...? The past few weeks I've been making nothing but cards. And being me, that's pretty strange. :) I went to a crop about a month ago and I was sooo inspired by the fabulous card makers there, and I guess that's why I've rediscovered the card making and also my Copics. It's been a looong time since I used them! <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I also stumbled upon a <a href="http://tiddlyinkschallenge.blogspot.se/2016/03/challenge-179-gentle-spring-colours.html">challenge over at Tiddly Inks</a> and wanted to give it a try. The colours made me think of some of the papers that I still have from my early days as a scrapbooker. Good thing I saved them for more than 10 years since I suddenly needed them today, right? =) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1503/25584884203_4916caf1b5_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1503/25584884203_4916caf1b5_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Colouring is difficult, but relaxing. I totally understand why adult colouring books are such a big hit. The cute digital stamp I used can be found at Tiddly Inks and is called <a href="http://www.tiddlyinks.com/fluttering-by-to-say-hi-extras-included/">"Fluttering by to say hi". </a></div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

I really enjoyed the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3043">February kit from Cocoa Daisy - Pop Fizz</a>. Often when it's been a while since I've been scrapping, I find it really hard to get started. It's like I need to 'warm up' before I remember how to do it. But this time it felt so easy!<br />
<br />
I haven't been taking a lot of photos and I decided to do just one page for each week, for weeks 2 and 3. My DITL goal isn't to cover every week during the year, but instead I love creating a page every now and then and I don't stress about it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1498/24361580209_9261134d39_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="610" src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1498/24361580209_9261134d39_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I added splatters of acrylic ink and mist to the "welcome to" card and the stickers are from the main kit.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1521/24433716710_5c1d7bb167_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="416" src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1521/24433716710_5c1d7bb167_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

The stamp set in the DITL kit includes this fab "a day in the life" stamp!<br />

Since I'm studying and working a bit too much right now, it's not as easy to find time to scrap as before. But opening a new Cocoa Daisy box and digging into a new kit is pure joy! Making time for scrapbooking is so important to me!<br />
<br />
Here I combined some pretty paper circles with gesso and splatters of mist. Writing around the edges of elements - here circles - is a favourite of mine when it comes to journaling.<br />

Again, some gesso and mist and a photo of my girls from this past summer. I love the contrast that the black thickers from the "build your own add ons" provides.</div>

The <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/">September Cocoa Daisy kit</a> is called Daydream!<br />
<br />
I love this pretty kit and I am so glad that I also got <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2763">the DITL kit</a>, because I believe it's one of my favourites so far. I used the DITL cards and embellisments on two layouts and one pocket page spread.<br />
<br />
Look at this "be amazing" card for example! Perfect for scrapping about my amazing Tuva... I don't know how many turns she took down that slide, truly enjoying herself. :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/602/20759369590_19b7208f16_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="636" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/602/20759369590_19b7208f16_b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Also this was created using the DITL kit + some gesso, acrylic paint and mist. The stamping in the backgorund was made using the set included in the DITL kit.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The background paper I used on my next layout is included in <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2764">the patterned paper add on</a>. First day of school! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And here's the DITL spread... keeping it simple because the cards are so pretty in themselves. </div>

On my final layout I used the main kit, the September printables and the cloud stamp from the DITL kit. I also used the OA roller stamp included in the main kit for my background, together with some gesso. </div>

<br />
Here is my take on the fun sketch, using the August 'Hemingway' kit. The kids were climbing and having fun earlier this summer, when visiting Höganäs.<br />

<br />
We've mostly stayed at home or made shorter excursions this summer, but we did a tiny bit of travelling last week and this photo was taken on one of our little trips - to a small island on the eastern coast of Sweden. I was inspired by the pattern on Tuva's dress and cut squares out of a few of the patterned papers from the main kit. I added some gesso to the papers and to the background and also some stitching and fun details.<br />
<br />
I also used the super cute <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2730">Little birds stamp set</a> - love them so much! - and the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2732">Elle's studio wood veneers</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/267/20053055735_1649a1ea32_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="628" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/267/20053055735_1649a1ea32_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The photo on the layout below was taken at the same trip and I created the background using gesso, a stencil + mist in green and blue to match the papers. I used the main kit + the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2739">Crate paper cork stickers</a> and the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2734">enamel dots</a> from Simple Stories.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
We travelled by boat twice during our vacation and these photos are from those two short rides. The first trip took us from Sweden to Denmark and the second ride was to get to the island on the east coast. Both rides felt like an adventure for sure. :)<br />
<br />
I used parts of a page protector to create the pockets for the sequins and I mostly used the DITL kit for this layout + the cork stickers and wood veneers mentioned above.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3691/19866747089_a1295880f1_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="636" src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3691/19866747089_a1295880f1_b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I also used the DITL kit to create this spread for week 29. I don't think I'll ever be creating pocket pages for every week of the year, but I do love the little glimpses of our everyday life that I manage to document like this!<br />

There's also a challenge up on the Cocoa Daisy blog, and we're challenging you to scrap about beverages. :) You don't have to use a Cocoa Daisy kit to play along but can use any supplies that you like, and you have until Aug 4th to upload your layout. All the info can be find in <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/blog/monthly-challenge/21618/join-us-for-a-beverage/">this blog post.</a> </div>

<br />
The gorgeous flower paper that I used for this first layout is from the<a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2689"> Corner cafe patterned paper add on</a>. I created the background using gesso and a stencil and then some mist and glimmer glaze.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/448/19072013658_49d15b5765_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="638" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/448/19072013658_49d15b5765_c.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This next layout was created using the DITL kit. Again, I used some gesso and mist for the background.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I enjoyed picking some of the more subtle patterns and colours from this colourful kit, for my third layout. </div>

<br />
<br />
It's been a loooong time since I created any pocket pages and I really enjoyed the process when using the DITL kit along with the July printables, to create this spread. I mostly kept the design very simple and I love the DITL cards.<br />

It's travelled-themed, but still totally useful for non-travel layout too! Non of my layouts are about travelling. :) At least not about the vacation-type of travelling.<br />
<br />
This first one is about what an incredible year this has been! I've managed to complete a whole year of studying and I've come really far on my journey towards becoming a teacher. I tore strips of patterned paper and attached them with gel medium. I used some gesso on top of them and then added more strips, this time attaching them using the sewing machine.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/503/18492331190_99eda0e1e3_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="628" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/503/18492331190_99eda0e1e3_b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
And this is about my twelve years of travelling along with this not-so-little-anymore boy! Twelve years?! How did that happen? I used some gesso and mist in yellow and orange, for the background. I loved the text stamps in the main kit!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/365/18492279588_03610a5b95_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/365/18492279588_03610a5b95_b.jpg" width="638" /></a></div>
<br />
All three kids have their birthdays in April and May and Tuva came home one day and said she wanted diamonds for her birthday. Her friend had gotten diamonds and Tuva knew that her dad had bought them from the diamond store. :)<br />
<br />
The look upon her face when she opened the pretty box her grandmother gave her, and found out that it was full of "diamonds" was just priceless. Such a happy little girl!<br />

<br />
I constantly seem to have at least twice as much as I am able to fit into my days on my to-do-list and I guess blogging has been pushed down the list for a while. I can't believe May is soon here! May will be a very busy month too. Lots of assignments for the Uni and both my girls have their birthdays in May. There always seem to be lots going on at the end of the school year too. Phew... :) Trying to smile and repeat to myself that things will be ok...<br />
<br />
I have been working with <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2585">the April Project Art kit</a> from Cocoa Daisy and exploring some zentangle inspired art journaling. The kit contains a workbook with lots of inspiration, and all the pens you need to experiment with drawing your own patterns. To colour them you can then use the Twinkling H2Os that come with the kit - beautifully shimmering watercolours.<br />
<br />
It's tricky to see the shimmering in this photo, but I promise you that it's there... :)<br />
<br />

I used the fab dotted circle stamp from the April main kit stamp set, as a starting point for my second page.<br />

I have been soooo busy with school and teacher training and a bit of flu on top of that... and it was wonderful to dig into the kit when it arrived. I immediately fell in love with the kit and it felt so easy to get started. I scrapped three super simple layouts. Perhaps it's time to get a bit messy the next time... but clean and simple was so perfect this month. :) <br />
<br />
I have so many precious photos from my Dad and I'm so grateful to have such a treasure. This photo was taken around 1960-70. I think he looks so cool and I loved scrapping this. I know I can find out the exact year - I just need to find the original (too many boxes) - and I plan to simply write the year and maybe the location if I can figure that out too, on the journaling sticker. <br />
<br />

I also scrapped a photo of the first rose in our garden, from last summer. I wonder if it will survive the winter and be this pretty again, this summer? <br />

I spent my day at a crop yesterday (in Ärla - great arrangement!) and I had a fab time! I felt so inspired and actually managed to get something done, besides chatting... :D <br />
<br />
I ended up creating three more layouts using the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/">February Cocoa Daisy kit - Journal Entry</a>. The kit is on sale now! Hurry up before it's gone!<br />
<br />
Tuva turns four in May and these are photos from her birthday last year...<br />

<br />
Alva has been using "rövarspråket" (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B6varspr%C3%A5ket">the robber language</a>) a lot lately and Tuva is so cute, trying to do the same. When she is using her own version of the robber language, it sounds more or less right, but what she says makes no sense at all. :D <br />

It's such a pretty kit, with some bold black additions that make the wonderful colours pop!<br />
<br />
For my first layout I used the main kit, the Jot it down and the Dear diary add ons. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7362/15760432024_b554065b6f_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7362/15760432024_b554065b6f_b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<br />
I also created a DITL spread, using almost exclusively the DITL kit. I added white cardstock and some green letter stickers from the main kit. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I adore the exclusive patterned papers this month! I used the dots a lot and I also created a couple of cards of my own, using the flower paper and some gesso. <br />

The January kit from <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/">Cocoa Daisy</a> is called Pajama time! It arrived a bit late here, due to the craziness of the holidays, but I loved getting a late Christmas gift and had lots of fun playing with the kit. <br />
<br />
I realize when seeing them together that my three layouts are quite different in colours and it's not obvious that they are created using the same kit as a base. I love all the different possibilities with the kits Christine puts together! There's also a very <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=14216">inspiring thread on the MB</a>, showing examples of possible colour combinations - check it out! <br />

The mask that I used on my second layout comes in the main kit. I used gesso, acrylic paint, mist and glimmer glaze.<br />

Grocery shopping with this little lady is always an adventure... :) This day she was all smiles, singing her way through the store... I used some of the stamps from the DITL kit around the edges of this layout.<br />

I didn't get the year wrong! :) For some reason I never posted my favourite layouts from 2013 a year ago, but I had a draft written and I'm thinking that it's about time I get this post up. :) So... here they are - my ten favourite layouts from 2013! :)<br />
<br />
My 2014 favourites will be coming soon... hopefully... <br />

So many emotions and quite a bit of struggling, from the beginning of the year and all the way to the end. <br />
<br />
I lost my Dad in an accident in early November, and I really didn't need another reminder of how fragile this life of ours is. I don't have words to express how I feel. I just miss him so very much.<br />
<br />
This year I took the huge step of taking some time off from my job and going back to the University. The goal is a totally new career as a teacher. I've loved it so far and I really hope that I'll still feel this way at the end of 2015. <br />
<br />
Here's a page that I made using the mica flakes and the texture paste (white crackle) in the December Project Art kit from Cocoa Daisy. I glued down strips of fabric to my page and painted them with gesso and acrylic paint. I drew the feathers on a gray paper and cut them out. <br />
<br />
The writing simply says: "I wish for a good year." <br />
<br />

<br />
I immediately fell in love with the exclusive papers that Stephanie designed, and I used both of them on this layout, made after the Dec sketch. Check out the sketch <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/blog/daisy-divas/19555/its-december-sketch-time/">challenge on the blog</a>! <br />
<br />
I also love the cute acrylic houses! <br />

<br />
On my third layout... with these adorable photos of Tuva and the phone... I used the yellow glitter from the <a href="http://www.cocoadaisy.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2446">Carmel add on</a> for my background, using matte medium as my adhesive.<br />

I really loved playing with this kit. Among other things it contains these fab wood veneers that I used on my first layout, titled "spin". I used gesso and mist to colour the wood veneers and I also splattered some mist onto my background.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I coloured the Heidi Swapp letters with yellow mist.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
My next layout is a very simple one with a cute photo of my daughters, on our way home from school. I LOVE the dark scribble paper designed by Stephanie. I just had to use the hearts stamp from October.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7490/15625873816_86f04d2441_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7490/15625873816_86f04d2441_b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<br />
I also created a layout with a messy background, using the Whipped Spackle from the Oct Project Art kit, together with stencils and lots of mist and also Glimmer Glaze. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
