Magic carpet

The prompt from Emily: is magic carpet.










When i read about the magic carpet at that moment i was thinking about the holidays in France and Norway. In France we go for the days full of sun. We go swimming in the Atlantic Ocean. The water is then about 20 degrees Celsius.
In Norway we go for the snow. ( in the summer in the mountains there is a lot of snow).

In week 29 the prompt is perfect.











The text is Throw your eyes the world is perfect, throw my eyes inperfect. I hope that you can change it.
The world is (in)perfect. If i look the world i think the world is inperfect because it always there is possible why that can go better but that has to there also experience that you have seen already a lot of things and can come along you it there compare.
When you are still a child then are possible you draw from the impressions which you have made up still but and then the world sees, however, differently.


Week 28 is goal of the week














The goal of this week is clean my scraproom because it is a mess. I have the size of playing card to work on. And that isn't much.
I've read on the blog of PJ about making your own foam stamps. This week i will make some stamps. I love the idea.
Soon i will show you some stamps i make by my own.

Not anymore

Emily's prompt this week is not anymore. You can translate it in a lot of different opions. Little chidern grow up, your own habits can change. I learn throw the years to try be myself and like myself.














Week 31 the prompt is no regrets.
When i tought at this prompt i realize that i like to spend most of my time with my family and friends. Sometimes means that i can't scrap or do some work for my job. When I was very sick I have realised what family and friends for you can mean.










The prompt for week 30 is count your blessings.
