Happy National Scrapbooking Day!! Here in Belgium the day doesn’t get celebrated, unfortunately. But that doesn’t mean I can’t let you all join in on the fun a bit. So for today, until National Scrapbooking Day is over in every single country in the world (i.e. Sunday at noon GMT), all shipping will be free in my online shop. Shipping cost will be charged initually, but will get refunded. A cool deal, if I may say so myself!
Fijne National Scrapbooking Day!! Hier in België wordt deze dag jammer genoeg niet gevierd. Maar dat wil daarom niet zeggen dat ik jullie niet een beetje kan laten meegenieten van de pret. De hele dag, tot National Scrapbooking Day voorbij is in ieder land ter wereld (i.e. tot zondag op de middag GMT), zal verzending gratis zijn in mijn online winkel. De verzendingskosten zullen in eerste instantie wel worden aangerekend, maar worden later terug terugbetaald. Een coole deal, als ik het zelf mag zeggen!
Don’t forget, there’s still time to enter my Ribbon Carousel Birthday giveaway and BasicGrey album kit giveaway!! * Niet vergeten, er is nog steeds tijd om deel te nemen aan mijn Ribbon Carousel Verjaardagsgiveaway en BasicGrey album kit giveaway!!

BasicGrey has created an exclusive Knee Highs and Bow Ties album kit. These are some pretty amazing kits, I tell you. And it is on sale for just $25 until May 12th. Don’t miss this awesome deal. * BasicGrey heeft een exclusieve Knee Highs en Bow Ties albumkit samengesteld. Echt prachtige kits, geloof me. Jammer genoeg is deze niet te bestellen voor ons, buiten de VS en Canada. Maar lees toch nog even verder.
I’m really happy to be able to give one of these kits away here on my blog to one of my readers. So, leave a comment on this post before Sunday, May 5th 21.59 pm GMT if you would love to get your hands on one of these kits. * Ik ben heel blij één van deze mooie kits hier te mogen weggeven aan één van mijn lezers. Laat dus een berichtje na op deze blogpost voor zondag 5 mei 21.59 GMT, als je graag zo’n kit in handen wil krijgen.
Tomorrow is National Scrapbooking Day. Have you planned anything to celebrate?? I think scrapbooking might be the only thing I will not be able to get around to tomorrow – lol. But that’s ok, almost every day is scrapbooking day in my house – *wink*. There’s an entire day of festivities over on BasicGrey blog, so be sure to stop by there. And I might just have a small surprise up my sleeve for this occasion as well. * Morgen is National Scrapbooking Day in de States. Hebben jullie iets gepland om dit te vieren?? Ik denk dat scrapbooken misschien wel het enige zal zijn waar ik morgen niet aan toe zal komen – lol. Maar dat is oké, bijna iedere dag is scrapbooking dag hier in mijn huis – *wink*. Op het blog van BasicGrey zijn er de hele dag tal van festiviteiten gepland, dus ga er zeker een keertje langs morgen. En misschien heb ik zelf ook nog wel een kleine verrassing in petto voor deze gelegenheid.
I hope to see you tomorrow! * Hopelijk tot morgen!
Els.

After a bit of consideration, I decided to register for Ali Edwards’ One Little Word class again this year. I chose for ‘balance’ to be my word for 2013. I usually set myself a couple of goals at the beginning of a new year. Not really resolutions, more like directions of where I would like to end up or what I would like to accomplish by the end of the year. This layout marks the start of 2013 for me.
I mostly used papers from BasicGrey’s Fiction collection for this layout. The warm colors of the floral background work really well with a black-and-white picture. The shipping tag hides the journaling behind the picture.
These Fact & Fiction journaling cards are just awesome. I absolutely adore the ledger one with the tab. The butterfly is one of the many chipboard elements for this collection. Of course I also had to use some masking tapes.
I just keep coming back to these two types of Thickers. I might need to stock up on them. The tiny orange letter stickers are also from BasicGrey’s Fact & Fiction collections.
Your letter for today is: I
