weekend update

Just a quick update....I have been so busy this week with work and preparing my class at LOF next Sunday and my freestyle doodling class next Monday at Dreampapers, so I haven’t had time to scrap.

Bare en lille hurtig opdatering....jeg har haft en travl uge med forældresamtaler på arbejdet, forberedelse af mit aftenskole kursus næsten søndag hos LOF øresund og mit freestyle doodling kursus hos DreamPapers næste mandag. Så travlt at jeg slet ike har haft tid til a scrappe.

I just discovered a great challenge site “ Sisterhood of scrap” , with weekly challenge and a lot of inspiration, so go check it out.

jeg har lige opdaget et fed challange side "Sisterhood of scrap" med ugentlig udfordringer og en masse inspiration. Sendte faktisk mit lyserøde slots layout ind til en udfordring, hvor man kun måtte bruge en farve i flere nuancer. Hvis du endnu ikke har besøgt den, så tag og tjek den ud.

I have received an award from my good friend Netti. It´s a smile award and Netti wrote this :

Lisette aka Lam: you are so wonderful and thanks for all the hours and years we have spent together.

Now I have to give it to 7 people and I think I will need some time to think about this.

jeg har modtaget denne pris fra min god ven Anette aka Netti og hun skrev følgende begrundelse:

Lisette aka Lam; du er simpelthen så dejlig og tusind tak for de mange timer og år vi har kendt hinanden

Nu skal jeg bare give dne videre til 7 andre men det skal jeg lige bruge lidt tid til at tænke over.

By the way here is a layout I made for My scrap corner ,but they didn’t chose it, so now I can show it to you.

Forresten så har jeg lavet dette layout til "my scrap corner" nr. 2 men de valgte ikke at tage det med, så det kan jeg jo lige viser jer.

Thanks for stopping by.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi.

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.

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.

Weekend

Last weekend I got sick and didn’t went to work before Wednesday, so I haven’t had any energy to update me blog before now.
Today I went to a scrapbooking and stamps exhibition in Sweden. It was so nice just walking around in all those scrap stores, looking at all the great stuff and spending a lot of money. I bought two new books from Autumn leaves ” Design with type” and “design with details” and I just can’t wait to have time to read them. I also got a big acrylic blog for my new stamps which by the way are made by Fancy Pants Designs. I meet a couple of my Danish scrapbook friends and we did a lot of talking. It´s been a very nice day so fare.

Tomorrow I’m going to give the house a big clean over because my husband and I are celebrating our 12½ years weeding day on Monday . In Danish it´s called “Kobber bryllup” but I don’t know what it´s called in English. We are holding a open house party from 6.30 am so I have to get up pretty early.

I have made some more layout for DreamPapers and two cards……take a look. Thanks for stopping by.

quick post

Finally my new clear stamps arrived and I can’t wait to play with them. Take a look .






















Last weekend I got a design packet from my local scrapbook store DreamPapers, where I’m on the design team. Some very fancy papers from DCWV new rock star collection. Here is what I have come up with so fare. I have used sketches from Pencilline and my scrap calendars for inspiration to these layouts.











Thanks for stopping by.

My Scrap Corner

I know I have been a bad blogger lately, but a couple of days ago I bought “The Sims2 Bon Voyage” for my daughter and since we only have one computer in the house……yes you guess right, she hasn’t been away from it, so her mom use it. Today I told her that there will be no playing Sims, before I have update my blog ;O).

I have had a lot of time to read in the new Danish scrapbook magazine ,since I couldn’t use the computer and I must say, I think it´s a fantastic magazine.
Many of my international cyber friends have asked me if I could show the magazine and the layout I made for it, so I have asked the chef editor Eva Dohn if I could do so. Normally we aren’t aloud to show it before a month after the issue is published, but she told me that is was okay since it´s the first issue ever, so take a look and do let me know what you think.

The cover digi layout is design by Karen aka Lindse

You can read more about the magazine here http://www.myscrapcorner.dk/
I will upload some more layouts in the weekend. Thanks for stopping by.

TOOT!

It´s been an fantastic weekend. Netti arrived Friday afternoon and we had a very nice evening with a lot of talking. Early Saturday morning we pick up Ann an old colleague of mine and then we drove to Ringsted where the convention took place. We had an awesome time at the convention together with 130 others scrapbook ladies. We did a lot of talking, laughing, at little bit scraping and spent a lot of money on shopping. I got some very cute stamps from Magnolia and I can´t wait to play with them.
Today I must admit I’m very tied and feel like I have a hangover even through I didn’t drink any alcohol yesterday ;O)

I did manage to make a double page and a single layout yesterday. Take a look.

As some of you know I have been working on a secret project and yesterday it was published for the first time, so know I think I can tell it.
Yesterday we got our first Danish scrapbook magazine ever and it all written in Danish. Well it´s not well known as Creating Keepsake or Simple Scrapbooks but it big in little Denmark and guess what ! I’m on the magazine design team.
I got my own doodling article, made a sketch for a contest and a lot of layouts in the magazine. I’m just so happy, proud and honoured to be a part of it.

Thank for stopping by.

my sweet daughter

Today topic from Jozzie´s blog challange is "Blog about a present you recently received".

Last night I was watching television, when my daughter came into the living room and ask me if I had some cardstock she could get. I said that se could look in my map with leftovers and see if there was something she could use. A few minutes later she asked me if I prefer strips or dots, and I told her that I like both. 5 minutes later she asked me if I had some strong glue she could used and I ask her to look in my tote. I started to wonder what she should used all those thing for and when she asked for my paper piercer I got very curious.Half an hour after she asked for the cardstock she came in a gave me this sweet gift. She had made it all by her self, just looking after a pictures in a hobby store catalogue. The journaling says lovely mom. Well she didn’t spell it right, but who cares I’m just so proud of my sweet daughter.


























I haven’t been scraping the last couple of days, because I have spent my spare time preparing for Scrap A Mania this upcoming Saturday. It´s the scrap event of the year in Denmark and my good friend Netti is coming to stay with me for the weekend. I looking forward to se her again and to scrap, shop, talk and have some fun all Saturday long with all my good scrap friends.
Saturday is also the day where my secret project is published.
By the way here is a layout I Created using the sketch provided by Di Hickman due 31 of august . You can find her sketch at her blog.



























Thanks for stopping by

Busy busy busy

I have been a bad blogger I know, but I have been so busy the last week with work and meetings. I have been scraping a lot for my secret project, so I can’t show it yet but I can show you this page aI made out of the august kit I got for being guest designer over at Scrapbook Charlet. It´s some very old photos from the time I didn’t know anything taking pictures and very little about scrapbooking.





Tital : Jesperhus

Journaling:
We went to the flowerpark Jesperhus. Signe was in a very bad mood just until we came to the area with playground, horses and carrousels, then her mood suddenly raise 180 degree.












I decided in the beginning of this month, that I shouldn’t use money on scrapbook supplies, because I have so much stuff, that I need to use first. Well know that august is ending I must admit that I have used some money on supplies but not as much as I normally do. Yesterday when I came home from work I thought my new chipboard letters would had arrived, but there was nothing in the mailbox. At 00.30 am this morning( I couldn´t slepp ;O) ) I used the track and trace number and it said that it was delivered, so I the middle of the night I went out to the garage with a flashligt in my hand and there my parcel stud. Take a look at these awesome chipboard letters from Heidi Grace, I can’t wait to play with them.

Thanks for stopping by.
