Scrapfriends and Bird is the Word

Hi peeps,

For my give-away go ====> here <====
Happy newyear,,,,,I hope 2013 will be full off luck, happiness, health and creativity for all of you!!!
For us it's another 4 and a half hours full off laughter....and then ending 2012. It was a rollercoaster ride for me I sure hope 2013 will be better. And you know "what" I know it will be!!!
Tomorrow I will share some happy mail with you... yeah.....

Yesterday I created a lo that totally is me 'being' creative *grin*
I'm a guest designer (in Januari) for an amazing "Dutch" challenge blog called Dutch Dares they are challenging us to make a lo that's based on what we "Don't" want to chance in 2013 something you want to keep the same. ( I hope it's oke that I post this tonight ).
For me that's easy that's why my lo is called *I will always cherish...my 'spirit' to create*for this lo I used different kinds of papers like (mia) from Crate Paper and the background is from My Minds Eye....I also used a stamp from Bo Bunny (the dagonfly) and a stamp from Prima Marketing. I so so so love the pretty swirl from ZVA and that pretty feather is from another amazing company "Imaginarium Designs".
The feather is painted with a pink paint and then with some crackle paint and some white glimmermist!

For this lo I'm also entering in two challenges from two amazing challenge blogs named:
Scrap Friends it's for there stunning COLOUR PALETTE CHALLENGE #8:

I thought this was so lovely......
and
Bird is the Word it's for there word Create and with this lovely sketch:
  
also very pretty.....
I really hope you like my lo.....

And again I have to tell you that the picture is not so good because of the bad weather....I hope I can take a better picture soon
Here a couple of close-ups:



Hope you enjoyed looking at my lo......have a wonderful evening you all!
I will be back with another post tomorrow xox

Bo Bunny's December Challenge..always love those.

Goodevening to you all,
For my give away go ====>here<=====

Today I want to share a lo I have made for the wonderful challenge at Bo Bunny's Blog for this challenge you had to use a stunning image for inspiration and then create to your heart's desire...and wow did I do just that!! This is the amazing image:
Gorgeous right??? Love those houses...
My inspiration came from those houses....it made me think about my house and my county...so I came up with the plan to scrap a gorgeous picture of where I live (Holland) in the snow...
For this lo I used the stunning "Powder Mountain" collection!
The most logical way to used this image is to look at the colors and pitched roofs was my guess! But I didn't do that at all I made it more my own.....I did a lot of stamping, sewing, painting which was so cool to do.
And I LOVE how it turned out "hope you do too".

I love the way Agnieszka made her lo and that picture is so cool...
Thank you girl for the inspiration.
For this lo I also used Gabrielle Pollacco her felt flower technic which is so beautiful thanks Gabi.

Hope you enjoy looking at my lo as much as I loved making it!!! 

Here is my take on the Bo Bunny December Challenge:

 and now my close-ups:



This lo was also based on the super gorgeous sketch over at Once Upon A Sketch where I enterd twice this month just because i loved it so much:
This is the amazing sketch by Nadia Cannizzo:

Only it turned out more of a full lo without much with space *grin*  hope                                that's oke                                                 
Thank you Bo Bunny for hosting such a great challenge..... you really get everything out of people.               
I bet it's great to be on your design team???
Hope you all have a very blessed evening.....off to bed now as it's 1.12 at night...

Love Amy

Today I want to share a lo with you that I created for the challenge over at the amazing ScrapFriends blog I always love there gorgeous sketches and colour palettes so much!
This is there stunning sketch:
Gorgeous huh ??
I also love the challenges over at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge blog
this time it's about: So show us your generation layout - maybe you have a wonderful 3 or 4 generation photo that you treasure?  If so, feature it.  Maybe a nice photo of your grandparents?  Then scrap it!! An object that belonged to them?  Scrap it or scrap a photo of it!I totally loved this challenge because it reminded me of a picture I took 6 years ago!
It was a picture of my hubby and his father and grandfather and our cute little boy....this picture is so dear to me because his grandfather isn't here anymore he died not so long after I took that picture.

For this lo I used the amazing "Bird Song" collection by Graphic 45 I truly admire there designer skills wow
so this is my entry for both challenges hope you like it:

"Any man can be a father but it takes someone special to be a Dad" this is the quote I got from the amazing place where you can find so much www.scrapbook.com from Anne Geddes don't you love it ??
