Yesterday I went to Halloween crop at DreamPapers and have a fantastic day as always. I didn´t scrap so much as I would had like, but her are the layout I did manage to make between talking, eating and shopping.

I have used sketches from Pagemaps and Valeries. Thanks for stopping by.

I går var jeg til 12 timers halloween crop hos DreamPapers og havde som sædvanlig en fantastisk dag. Jeg var noget ukoncentreret , dels fordi jeg er så forkølet, at jeg næsten ikke kan tænke og dels fordi jeg var træt, da jeg sad oppe den halve nat for at forberede de layouts , jeg ville lave. Jeg kan bare ikke tage afsted uden at være forberedt, så skitser, papir, pynt, billeder ja alt blev nøje udvalgt og derfor kom jeg først i seng kl .02.00......typisk mig ;O)

Se her hvad jeg fik dog fik lavet imellem masser af snak, lodtrækninger, spisning og ikke mindst shopping.

Jeg har brugt skitser fra Pagemaps og Valeries. Tak fordi du kiggede forbi

I´m back

We had a fantastic trip to Disneyland Paris.
The road trip through Germany went well but took a little bit longer than we had expected because there were so much road mending on the highway. We arrived in Liege in Belgium about 22 pm and then all the “fun” began. We had back home booked a room in a hotel near the highway and printed a map from goggle where the hotel was suppose to be, but in the dark we couldn’t find it. We drove around for about 45 minutes and all the roads look like the one on the map, but there wasn’t any hotel. We decided to drive back to the highway and continue our trip against France and thought that we could find another hotel
near the highway because on our way through Germany we had seen a lot of hotels along the highway…….but we got wiser because in Belgium there aren’t many motel nearby the highway. We was almost trough Belgium and it was very late about 0.30 am before we finally found a hotel. I don’t think I never been so glad so se a bed before.
We arrived to “David Crocket Ranch” the next day and we had tree amazing, funny and happy days in Disneyland.
The Halloween parade was amazing and all the Halloween decorations in the park were so funny and beautiful. We had a lot of fun trying all the different amusements. I really like the “Crush`s Coaster” . It was a high-speed and whirl roller coaster and I was so dotty when I got off but it was funny.
Signe love it all and she got a lot of autographs from the Disney characters even though some of them was very had to get because there were so many people around the characters . I took a lot of pictures of Signe and the characters and the beautiful parks.
Before we went on our trip I had said that I wouldn’t go home before I have had a hug from Winnie the pooh so I had to do that……take a look



























Vi havde en fantastisk tur til Disneyland.
Køreturen gennem tyskland gik godt, selvom det tog noget længere tid end vi havde regnet med, da der var en masse vejarbejde. Ja faktisk mødte vi vejarbejde sådan ca. hvert 10 ende minut, så det bliver man til sidst træt af. Vi ankom til Leige i Belgien kl. 22 og så blev det rigtig sjovt, for vi kunne ikke finde det hotel ,vi hjemmefra havde bestil værelse på. Vi havde udprintet et kort over området, hvor hotellet skulle ligge, men på trods af at vi kørte rundt i området ,hvor alle vejene lignede dem på kortet fandt vi det ikke. Så vi besluttet at køre tilbage til motorvejen og så finde et hotel langs den, da vi bestemt mente der måtte være nogen eftersom vi så masser af hoteller i Tyskland langs motorvejen. Men vi skulle blive klogere for i Belgien smider de ikke om sig med hoteller, så vi var næsten kørt gennem hele Belgien og klokken blev 00.30 inden vi endelig fandt et hotel. Jeg har aldrig før været så glad for at se en seng efter 12 timer i bilen.
Vi ankom til ”David Crocket Ranch” næste formiddag , hvor vores hytte låg. Vi tilbragte tre fantastiske og sjove dagen i parkerne.
Halloween paraden var fantastisk flot, alle halloween udsmykningerne rundt i parkerne var smukke og sjov.
Vi havde meget sjov med at prøve de forskellige forlystelser og der var næsten ikke kø til nogen af dem. Vi stod i gennemsnit omkring 10 minutter i kø til hver ting pånær til “Crush`s Coaster” som var hel ny. Her stod vi i kø i 50 minutter som egentlig ikke var slemt, da skiltet ved indgangen sagde 75 minutter. Jeg var meget overrasket aover denne hurtigkørende rutchebane. Den var vild sjov, men hold da fest jeg var rundtosset, da jeg stod af igen. Så rundtosset at jeg måtte sætte mig på en bænk og alle menneskerne i køen kiggede mærkeligt på mig.

Signe var vild imponeret over det hele og hun fik en masse autografer af Disney figurerne. I starten var hun meget genert og ville ikke rigtig trænge sig på i mængden, men snart fandt hun ud af at det var det eneste, der virkede og så blev hun en sand autografjæger-haj.
Jeg tog en masse billeder sådan ca. 230 af Signe og figurerne og de smukke parker. Inden vi tog hjemmefra havde jeg sagt, at jeg ville ikke tage hjem, før jeg havde fået et kram af Peter Plys. Så jeg tog pænt opstilling i køen af fik mit kram ;O)


I was so surprised to see all the comment on my blog when I got back last night. I never thought that so many people were reading my blog but on the other side I do read a lot of blogs myself and it´s not always I have time to leave a comment. All these comment make my so happy so I decided to make two drawings instead of one. I got help from my daughter and her best friend so take a look.

Jeg var meget overrasket over at se så mange kommentar på min blog, da jeg kom hjem igår. Jeg havde aldrig i min vildeste fantasi troede, at så mange mennesker læser min blog, men på den anden side så følger jeg jo selv med i en del blogs og det er ikke altid jeg har tid til at skrive en kommentar. Alle disse kommentar gør mig så glad, ja så glad at jeg besluttede mig for at lave 2 trækninger i stedet for en. Jeg har fået hjælp af signe og hendes veninde, så alt er gået retfærdigt til.






























Congratulation to Scrapbook with Vanillia and Charlotte Ravn…….please email your address to me so I can sent you a little rak. You can email me at a-lmadsen@madsen.mail.dk

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Tillykke til Scrapbook with Vanillia og Charlotte Ravn. send mig en email med jeres adresse så jeg kan sende jer en lille gave med posten en af de kommende dage.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi og hav en rigtig god weekend.

One week of from work

I finally got one week of from my work and I’m just going to relax together with Anders and Signe. Tomorrow about 11.30 am we going on a road trip. We are driving through Germany and is going to stay for the night in Belgium. Monday morning we are driving to France and hopefully we arrive at Disneyland Paris about noon, where we are going to spent the next 3 days before we drive back home again. On our way back we have talked about making a stop in Amsterdam in Holland but I’m not sure yet.

I have been scraping this week or at least not anything I can show you yet, but today I pick up some of my new scrapbooking supplies that Solvej and I ordered at Scrapbook.com. Her sweet husband how was on a business trip took it home for us.


I just looked at my blog counter , which I install in august and it´s already over 3000. I think that’s fantastic and want to celebrate it with all my readers. So live a comment and when I’m back from France Friday I will make a drawing among the comments and send a little RAK to one.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend

Endelig har jeg en uges efterårsferie og den skal bruges på at slappe af sammen med Anders og Signe. I morgen tager vi bilen og kører ned gennem Tyskland og regner med at gøre holdt i Belgien for natten. Mandag kører vi videre til Frankrig og skulle meget gerne nå Disneyland Paris omkring middagstid, hvor vi skal tilbringe de næste tre dagen inden turen atter går hjemad. Vi har snakket om på hjemturen at gøre stop i Amsterdam , men er ikke helt sikre endnu. Jeg skal vist lige plage min mand lidt mere ;O)

Jeg har ikke rigtig noget nyt scrap at vise men i dag hentede jeg nogle af mine nye varer ,som Solvej og jeg har bestil hos scrapbook.com over there. Solvejs mand har været så sød at tage det med hjem til os, så vi slap for tolden.

Jeg har lige tjekket min blog tæller, som jeg installerede i august. Den viser allerede over 3000 besøgende. Jeg synes, det er super fedt og det skal fejres med mine læsere. Læg en kommentar og når ejg kommer tilbage fra Frankrig på fredag ,så trækker jeg lod mellem alle kommenterende og sender en lille gave såkaldt RAK til den heldige vinder.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi og have en god weekend.

The other class was how to make a mini album, where the cover is made out of a packet of Hone Loops, yes the one our kids have for breakfast. This was an fantastic great class and the teacher was so sweet and well prepared, so thanks Anne for teaching us the brilliant idea of yours.

Take a look.

thanks for stopping by







Til ære for Susanne, Else og Anette (når hun er træt) skriver jeg fremover også min blog på dansk.

Jeg havde en fantastisk dag igår til conventionen i Ryslinge. Som altid en dag fyldt med en masse snak, shopping, lidt mere snak og da også en lille bitte smule scrap.......det kan vi jo altid gøre, når vi kommer hjem.

Jeg fik lavet dette db. layout som ses ovenfor. Billederne er af min datter og hendes bedste veninde. De sad og så MGP og midt i afstemningspausen greb de min mands guitar og begyndte at fjolle rundt.

Det var super skønt at A: Madsen klanen var samlet igen. Den består jo som I kan se på billedet af mig, Nordjyden Anette også kendt som Netti og Anette fra DreamPapers. Vi er alle tre lige tosset, så vi passer perfekt sammen, selvom Anette og jeg har overvejet at smide nordjyden ud, da hun nu er den eneste ryger i klanen ;O)

jeg deltog i to kurser "Kreativ håndskrift" ved Sally. Supert kursus hvor jeg fik ny inspiration til at bruge min håndskrift.

Så deltog jeg i Annes geniale kursus, hvor vi lavede det skønne minialbum, hvor omslaget er lavet af en morgenmadspakke. tak til Anne for at udtænke denen geniale ide og dele den med os. kanont kursus med en lærer i topklasse.

I alt en kanon dag igår.........god søndag til jer alle.

A nice day

Our open house party at our anniversary day Monday morning went very well. Some members of our families had made a very beautiful triumphal arch with flowers in my favourite colours pink and orange. The party ended about 12.00am and then we drove to the zoo and had a great time together with Signe looking at the animals. We had dinner on a Chinese restaurant in the evening, so it was a great and long day. I know some people think it´s not very romantic to go to the zoo at our weeding day, but that just how we are ;O)
















I made this card for my dear husband at our anniversary. I just had to play with some of my new stamps.





















Made these two layout to my local scrapbook store DreamPapers.



this one did take me some time to make because the papers I used was meant to be Christmas papers, but I thought the circles looked more like beach balls.




















I used a sketch provide by Di Hickman to make this one. You can find the sketch at her lovely
blog.














Tomorrow I’m going to another big scrapbook convention on Funen and I think it´s going to be a fun day. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.
