The Madonna dance

First of all Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends!! Hope you're having a wonderful day with family and friends!

I've been looking through some very old photos and came across this one of me and Angela. I think we we're 4 or 5 years old and huge Madonna fans. The pose you see in this picture was for some reason always the dancing pose we started with. Madonna must have done this at least once, but I don't even remember... :-)
Edit: thanks to Angela I have a link where our pose came from! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbglHuvz-xk

We've been fans for years and I think there are many more photos like these to find. When we were older we also had make up on like Madonna and made short skirts with towels. I thought this photo was worth it to scrap, it's so fun to play with your own childhood memories. I used the Chic Tags Happy Place collection.




Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

DT Creative Scrappers - sketch #256

It's time for a new sketch at Creative Scrappers and I'm so excited that we're teaming up with Paper Issues, my 2 faves together! :-)


I used a photo of Phiene at the library and I'm so happy to see that she enjoys books as much as I did at her age and still do. For this layout I used the Amy Tangerine Cut & Paste collection.

Chic Tags - Happy Place

Last week I shared a layout about my love for traveling. Today I have a layout to share that shows my love for my own country. Sometimes I seem to forget how many beautiful spots and views we have overhere, but when I focus on it and look around I do realize that this is the place where I belong. The only thing I would like to trade is the weather ;-)

I used the Chic Tags Happy Place collection, the name of this collection says it all I guess.

 
 
 
 
You can get yourself some of this gorgeous collection overhere in the Paper Issues store. If you use my code DANIELLE20 you'll get 20% off!

DT Life.Paper.Scrapbook. - color challenge

We have some new colors for you today at Life.Paper.Scrapbook.! This challenge is sponsored by Big Picture Classes.

 
I made a layout with some pics of Phiene decorating cupcakes. These days I have to take quick pictures of her from weird angles, or she dives away and there's no chance for a picture at all! I hope this is just a phase that will be over real soon... I used the Webster's Pages Recorded collection by Allison Kreft.
 

 
 
You can link up your project with these colors over at the Life.Paper.Scrapbook. blog, can't wait to see what you'll create.
 
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!

DT Paper Issues - Grateful for traveling

Our current issue at Paper Issues is Grateful for You. I used this issue with a little twist and made it Grateful for traveling. Traveling is one of my very favorite things to do and I'm so very grateful for being able to see so many beautiful spots in the world. I'm aware that I'm very fortunate to travel so often, so it deserved a layout.

This photo is taken at Bryce Canyon last September and I used the gorgeous Pink Paislee Color Wash collection.

 
 
 
 
You can find the Pink Paislee Color Wash collection overhere in the Paper Issues store and get it with 20% off when you use DANIELLE20 at check out!

Las Vegas and Cayon road trip mini album

It's already 1,5 month ago since I got back home from my trip to Las Vegas and the Canyon road trip, but I finally got the mini album done. The last couple of times I went on a trip I pre-made mini albums so I only had to add the pictures when I got back, but I failed to make something before I left this time.

I like to make a completely different album for every trip and this time I used the Heidi Swapp Butterfly album. I also used lots of her Color Shine sprays and masks. All the papers are from the Echo Park Beautiful Life collection and I used the entire Road trip collection by Chic Tags.










If you need some more Color Shine yourself, you can find them (including all new colors) in the Paper Issues store overhere. With my code DANIELLE20 you can get them with 20% off!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
