I have been wanting to scrap these pictures of my mum with my sick nephew (leukemia) for a while now, but for some reason it has taking me ages to make a lay out that I actually liked. I have played with it for days only to delete every lay out I made untill today…

When I saw the kit “The Heart of Nature” by Lilibule I just knew it was the perfect kit for these pictures. And.. at the moment you can even download this kit for free. Click here to go to the boutique for a free download.

To see a larger version of the lay out click on the picture. Let me know what you think of the lay out.

At the Gotta Pixel Forum they are having a Brag Book Exchange. When you participate you get to download four mini kits, which is pretty cool to begin with. Everyone  creates one brag book page and sends it in before the deadline (13th of March). Everyone that participates does not only get the four mini kits, but also ALL the brag book pages that have been created. So it’s a really easy  way to get a nice  and free brag book.

I have already send in the page that I have created, but haven’t been able to upload it to the gallery yet as they’re having some technical difficulties. As soon as it’s sorted out I will post the preview of it on this blog.

Okay…. Ready for a new challenge?

My new challenge starting today is the Weight Loss Challenge. I am so fed up with the 23.6 extra kilo’s I am carrying around that I’ve decided to REALLY do something about it. I have wanted to lose weight for a while now, but I guess I finally come to the point that it is really serious. By doing the same thing I have done so far it’s not going to happen, something needs to change.

So what’s changing?

• Signed up with valtaf.nl to keep a eating and sports diary on a daily basis
• Signed up with their special care subscription for a year so I will get daily meal plans from a dietitian
• I will try to exercise on a daily basis (not sure if I can as I am still suffering from the pfeiffer disease)
• I will believe in myself and truly believe that I can make my goalweight

To make a long story short; I will eat more healthy and exercise more!

Current Stats

Starting Weight: 83.6 kg
Goal Weight: 60 kg
Time to do it in: 18 months

As promissed… A lay out of the You’ve Got A Friend In Me kit by LorieM Designs.

I used the Simply Sketchy template by Laura. Yes, it’s the template used for the Februari challenge. I think it’s great to experiment with, so that’s why I used it again. I like the different looks when you use different kits.

Again a photo used of my nephew. I love scrapping pictures of him, so I am sure you will see a lot more lay outs with him in it.

Wow, today I won a $6 coupon for the store of digital scrapbook designer LorieM.  At the Gotta Pixel Forum they are randomly giving away beautiful scrapbook kits to people who leave a comment on the RAK threads.

I’m so over the moon that I have won a coupon and I am really feeling blessed right now.  I have already used up the coupon and  added the kit You’ve Got A Friend In Me to my scrapbook kits collection. Thank you so much!!!

I will add a lay out to my blog really soon
