Actually, I have a sketchbook on my bag all the time, wherever I go. I draw cards everywhere, at work, at the car, at bed. I bought a Moleskine Pocket Storybook. Every page has frames and they are ideal for designing cards.
Nothing fancy … but of course I had to add some glitter on the outside… LOL.

… and here are the sketches for the “back to school” series, just to take a look on the inside

I may keep the general idea (the one with the fishes) when making the card and change it completely or just go along with the draw.

You can make a cheaper version of this if you follow the instructions of the talented Kristina Werner here, she even provides a template for you to download and print!

Anyway, now I am back home and I missed it sooooo much. Now I have to read tons and tons of blog pages since you have been all very busy and creative! And then I should make a card! Can’t even remember how to use my cutter! LOL!!!!

Off to visit your blogs!

So glad I am back! I missed you all so much!!!!!So many blogs to visit, so many e-mails to read, too many cards to admire and so many comments to write!!! Two weeks is a looooong time away from the blog-sphere!

We have moved to our new house (which we totally love) and everything is pretty much unpacked.  Our hobby rooms are in the basement. Well, it’s not actually a basement since there is a door that leads to the back yard. So here is a “before” photo of my crafting space when I was unpacking … total chaos….

but I have made a great progress on my new craftroom so here are a couple of photos of how it looks right now.

On the left is my computer station, where my laptop, digital cutter and printer will be. On the right is my working area. The lamp, the curtains (this and this), the shelves, the baskets, the metal rail, the wire basket and the white plastic container hanging there are all from IKEA. I just love this shop!  But there are still lots of things I need to do… more baskets, containers, wall decorations etc. A new photo will be posted soon …

Off to check what you’ve been up to all these days!

Moving was a little rough on my card-making but it had its good sides too. I now have a much bigger space for creating and will show you soon enough.

Telephone is connected and the telephone guy said that we will be online within the week.

So, stay with me for more videos that will be created, from now on, in a more creative space.  (and photos will soon come along

I would also like to apologize for not posting as often and not commenting on your lovely blogs lately.  It’s a very busy season for me because of the finals at school. Marking the tests takes a lot of my time and as if this is not enough we are moving!

Well, moving is a big improvement as we are currently live in a city flat and now we are going in a big house at the suburbs with a yard! Yeah! and guess what? I am gonna have my very-own scraproom! Hooray! I’ll share photos when it’s done!

I’ll be updating my blog but not as often and I’ll be watching your blogs but not everyday. I’ll be back “full-time” in about three weeks! Weekend videos and “Around the world” challenges will be posted as always so stay tuned!

Hugs
