and now...

It's time to remind my self again...
 
 
 

Christmas 2018

Christmas, a holiday with a lot of feelings
 - good and not so good.
This year me and my husband decided to, for the first time in our lives,
to celebrate Christmas the way we wanted it. 
And it was perfect! ❤️






Our oldest daughter and her boyfriend came home on Saturday before Christmas to be spoiled.
We shopped a little, prepared Christmas dinner, watched Christmas movies and just relaxed.

On Christmas morning my Grand father, my aunt , my mother and her husband came for Christmas breakfast, Santa porridge - cheese - new baked bread - candy - panna cotta.
It was really cosy and nice! We had a lot of Christmas gift to share and my 95 year old Grand father really enjoyed beeing a part of this ❤️


My three beautiful children, I’m so proud of you!

The afternoon started with the standard Donald Duck session on TV with
me, my husband, our children and our daughters boyfriend in the sofa. This was just what I needed, a little less stress and just us - my little family.

We eat (a lot😂) really tasty food in the evening and we played The Christmas gift game and another game together later on. A lot of love and laughter - I’m pretty lucky after all😊

Take care!

CASology challenge week 307

Vacation!!!

I started my vacation this morning with a not so pleasant migraine attack.
Around 16:00 I was human again and after dinner and a short walk I feel ok and was ready to take in this weeks challenge at CASology.


Cue word this week: ZOOM
The first thing that popped up in my mind was a film roll and I decided to zoom in
on my daughters birthday and her favorite color.


The film roll is from my storage and the dies and paper from Gummiapan.

Addicted to CAS Challenge #139

Today it's time for a challenge at Addicted to CAS.
I have made a CAS card to my dear colleague and friend.
She doesn't know this card is for her, I know she's a big fan of CAS cards and I gave her a challenge before I left work today: tell me your favorite color except black.... 

Here is my contribution:
 As you might have read, I have had a long crafting time-out and it was a very very long time since I embossed anything... I even had to drive by a scrap store to buy me a new embossing tool today...
I think I need to practice a little bit more with my new tool...
The stamp of my super woman below is one of my first stamps from Gummiapan - I don't know if you can buy it any more.
The small hearts on the read thread is actually a gift from the receiver.
 

I don't know if she will read my post here but I can reveal that the card will come with a small gift inside and a summer greeting...

Cue word this week: Bear and here is my contribution:


The patterned paper, the panda stamp and the happy birthday; from Gummipapan.
