Crafting on vacation!

Crafting on Vacation 1Crafting on Vacation 2Crafting while on the road has its unique challenges…

As one can see, not so easy to find space to work! 😀 !

Crafting on Vacation 3

I claimed the only free space I could find with a little light on the window ledge and proceeded to make my crafty mess!Crafting on Vacation 4Not even enough room to take a decent photo.

Crafting on Vacation 5Guess this will just have to do! Deserate times, desperate measures!!!

Have a nice day!

Recycled Art!

Woven Bowl  1If you are like me, you have too many old magazines, broschures and newspapers stacked up around the house.  I decided to turn my trash into something fun!  Here is a silly quirky bowl which I wove yesterday out of a travel catalogue I found.

Woven Bowl  2It was quite simple but does require some patience.

Woven Bowl  3

I really love the result!

I will definitely be making more of these!

Have a great day!

Lagerfeuer Lecker!

Besonders schön im Sommer ist natürlich das abendliche Lagerfeuer und dazu gehört ganz sicher auch das leckere Stockbrot!

Stockbrot 1Ich habe dieses mal ein neues Rezept ausprobiert!

Stockbrot 21 Kilo Mehl

3 Eier

1 Würfel frische Hefe

3 EL braune Zucker

250 ml Milch

Prise Salz

Stockbrot 3Beim nächsten Mal würde ich eine Prise mehr Salz hinein tun, bevor ich den Teig auf die Stöcke wickle – sonst war sehr lecker.  Ich habe dann mit eine selbstgemachte Honig-Butter serviert! Mmmmmmmmm

Ich wünsche einen schönen Tag!

Stampin‘ Up meets Geocache

Stampin' Up meets Geocache 1!Well it seems like „Geocaching “ is the latest, greatest leisure-time activity.  As I understand it, it is something like a global treasure hunt with GPS.  Anyway, my boys needed something to leave behind in all of the hiding places they found. So I made them a few little calling cards.

Stampin' Up meets Geocache !Stampin' Up meets Geocache 2Off to find some more treasure!

Stampin' Up meets Geocache 3Have a nice day!

More „Blendabilities“ !!!

More BlendabilitiesOne of my absolute favorite activities this summer has been sitting on a bench with a few stamps, whisper white cardstock and a fist full of „Blendabilities“ alcohol markers…new from Stampin‘ Up!

More Blendabilities1It is soooo easy to get a professional look!

More Blendabilities2I simply added more color to the parts I wanted to have more depth or took away color with the special made color-lifter pen just loaded with a blending solution!

More Blendabilities3Love also the watercolor look you can get! I have used alcohol markers for many years now from various companies, but I am especially excited to be able to have them coordinate exactly with all of my Stampin‘ Up, ink pads, cardstock, designer series papers and embelishments.  The possibilies are truly endless.  Gotta get ‚um ALL!!!

 

Have a nice day!

„Project Life“ by Becky Higgins, Stampin‘ Up & ME!!!

Project Life 1 Hamburger cHere ist my first try with „Project Life“ Everyday Adventures Kit! A revolutionary way to do „Memory Keeping“!

Project Life 1 Hamburger a Soooo easy! No muss, no fuss and in no time at all – FINISHED! Ta-Daaaa! I did not have to cut anything, I did not even use adhesive, just placed my photos and pre-cut Project Life cards into the pockets!

Project Life 1 Hamburger bWhat I liked the best was, that I had my cute little box of coordinated supplies, a few fotos (which usually just live on my computer hard drive) and that was it!  I did not have to pull apart my whole craft room to do a great project!

Project Life 1 Hamburger 6Sometimes I decide not to do a project just because I know, I won’t have time to clean up the chaos when I am finished. And sometimes I just can not decide which of my fabulous Design Series Papers I want to use. Here, if I make something and decide that I prefer to use another design, I just take it out of the pocket and put it back it the cute little box to use later! No waste, no guilt!!! Can not wait to do my next „Project Life“ page.

If you have a limited amout of creative time and alot of great memories all organized in boxes in your bedroom closet and fotos which live primarly in a file on your computer, then perhaps is this a great system for you!   If you are interested in finding out more, send me a mail or sign up for a workshop! Begining June 10th you can purchuse this great kit from me. Matching cards, stamp sets, stickers, journaling pens and fantastic new Project Life Framelits for die cutting!

Have a great day!
