All my love

I did another card with my Whiff of joy-stamps yesterday. This time I used the sweet angel:


I putt some stickles on the wings and other parts of the image. You couildn´t see it in the first picture that great so I did another photo to show it. It´s a little dark but if iot would be lighter you couldn´t see the sparkles again.


Ok, and here´s another picture to show that the card is fold that way that you open it with the image and the ribbon.

Ok, I guess those were enough pics of just one card! *lol* I hope you´ll like it. I´m not that sure because it looks a little pale.

I got some happy mail yesterday. I odered some cute Close to my heart-stuff in the States. Unfortunatly my package was send back to the States for security problems. *grr* So all the stuff was divided into two packeges and send again. Don´t ask me how much I paid for the shipping! *double grrr* However the stuff came today and I´m absolutly in love! Everything looks so beautiful! I hadn´t had the time to work with it yesterday but I hope today I´ll have! Right now I just wish again to have more time. So many new stuff so little time!

Have a great day!

Happy winter

I know, I know! It´s still summer. But it looks like I´m in the mood for winter right now. Well I am when it comes to creativity.The weather still should be summer! ;o) felt like winter again yesterday because I got my new Whiff of joy-stamps. The are all sooo cute that I couldn´t resist doing a card immidiatly. And the first collection is the winter one.

So here´s my first card with sweet Charlotte:

If you are in the (creative) mood for winter like I am and haven´t seen the cute stamps Katharina sells you should definatly take a look! All the images are cute and there´s even more to come!

Have a great day! - Coni

Winter

It took a while but I´m finally back with something creative. I couldn´t find my mojo and didn´t feel well (yes again... I know). But I just thought I should start with some stuff I love and try to scrap. It needed much more time than I usually do but it got me going and so here´s my new LO:


Here´s a close-up. I put some stickles on the title to make it look like a frosty winterday.


I know it´s summer right now and it´s really hot here in germany lately but when I saw the pics I took in January I just wanted to use them. And I wanted to use these colors! And since scrapping should be all about fun (especially to get my mojo back) I just did it!

I hope you´ll like the LO!

Have a great evening! - Coni

Alicia tagged me a while ago but it got lost a while. But here I am to answer all the questions! :o)

Ten years ago:
I was definatly younger! :o) I did the same job, just broke up with my boyfriend and lived on my own for the first time (I lived with my sister before). Honestly I don´t wanna go back! Just having a younger body would be nice. *lol*

Five things on today's to-do list:
Working
Meeting dh
Drive with him to his parents in Duesseldorf for the weekend
Hopefully checking mails
Hopefully have a little nap in the car! ;o)

A snack I enjoy:
I just LOVE M&M peanut butter. Sometimes I´m sad they aren´t availible here in Germany but on the other hand this may be better for my body mass index!

Places I have lived:
Ok, I´m boring! I was born in Hamburg, Germany. I was raised here and I still live and work here. I don´t even moved to another part of my town. But hey: I love my hometown! It´s a woderful city everybody should see!

Things I would do if I were a millionaire:
Ok, I guess you mean when I´m REALLY rich!? I would buy a house (and someone else is doing the move for me!!!) and Andi would get his Mustang while I get a Renault Convertible. I would give my sister money and some of my friends too. And I would go on a long vacation with my parents. There are really BIG dreams I have but I will not talk about them because wishes don´t come true if you talk about them, right?

I guess everybody I know was already tagged. So I don´t tag anybody else. If you haven´t been tagged get it here and start answering the questions!

Have a great day! - Coni

Starting with cards...

I did some cards last weekend. The first one I did with one of my new "Sarah kay"-stamps. We sell them in Andis online-shop and I think they are really cute! I love that the lines where so fine!


The papers are from Stampin´Up USA. I wanted to use papers that don´t take the viewer away from the image. And I just LOVE those papers! :o)

The second one I did because I wanted to do something that looks like summer. For a few days now it has become REALLY hot in Germany. And I wanted to use the stamp because I bought itr and never used it. I know there are some more unused stamps in m stash but I plan to use one after another now. And it´s the same with the papers, cardstock etc.!




I did a Stampin´Up!-workshop last weekend too. So I wanted to do a small Make & Take for the ladies. I came up with this tag and I´m glad that everybody liked it a lot!

I didn´t do anything creative since sunday. To be honest I´m just tired. All I wanna do is sleeping and I feel like everything I need to do (even the everyday stuff) is way to much. I guess it´s that I need to rest to relax from our move. I just hope to be back on track soon!

Have a great day! - Coni

I´m back!

The last weeks were very busy because Andi and I move to a new appartment. Wow I can´t tell you how much stuff we had and how much work the move was! I´m just tired now!!!

But now it´s finally done and I can´t tell you how happy that makes me! I promised myself not to move again soon! ;o)

We really love our new appartment. It has 3 1/2 rooms and is 101 m2 big. Every single room (including the kitchen) has access to a balcony and there´s a lot of light! The area we now live in is really beautiful. It´s green and quiete. A lot of our new bneighbors are ducks because there´s a small river next to our house.! ;o) That´s so different to where we´ve lived before. I need to get used to no noise! *lol*

Here are some pics of our new appartment.First our new living-room:

The new place to eat in the kitchen (we painted the walls lilac and I love it! Unfortunatly ma camara doesn´t...):

A room for our guests:

And finally my new creative area:

Now that everything´s done I wanna be creative again! I had a lot of ideas while we did the move. But sometimes it´s that when there´s time again all the ideas are gone. Di you know that feeling? I want to scrap and stamp again!!! And I need to visit some websites and blogs! Our internet wasn´t working so I couldn´t go online - even if I had a little time. So I´m back to cyber-space again too! *lol*

It´s great to be back! Have a great day!

Thank you

How can shopping be so hard??? You should know that I LOVE shopping. But today after a day full of it I´m just tired! We are moving next month and just got the keys to our new appartment on thursday. So we searched for the paint and some furniture today. It was fun to decide what to buy but now my feet hurt and I don´t wanna do anything! I didn´t expect that! ;o) We decided to take the evening off and just relax. Tomorrow we´ll be going to start painting the walls. I guess I will be tired again in the evening! *lol*

I did this Stampin´Up!-card a few days ago. I really love the cardstock and the punches!


I saw a card on an US-blog and wanted to do that one but while I was doing it I changed more and more and now I think that it´s totally different! But that´s something I really like about creativity! You start with an idea and often end with something you didn´t except! And there are no rules so this is just ok! Ah, what a relaxing hobby in the world full of rules! ;o) Do you feel the same?

Have a great evening! - Coni
