Update....

Finally I have my internet-access back.
Really frustrating a lot! Had it a few weeks ago as well.
But did a lot of scrapping the last weeks though.
I've been a ClubScrap-member (http://www.clubscrap.com) for about 4 years right now and they have this great Assembly Line Scrapbooking method where you're able to make about 12 layouts from one kit!! Using all the papers you get in the kit. I so love that!!
I got my kits stacked with two of them in one pizzabox (that's like January and February in one pb, March and April in the next, etc.), so you can imagine the boxes overhere, but they're really going down in numbers by scrapping the ALSB-way :)
As I now can put the layouts from 4/5 boxes in one pizzabox, so it saves me a lot of space (even though my pizzaboxes are stacked down the ceiling, so are not in the way at all.

Have to finish 6 boxes (with 11 kits in totall), but now my problem is: I run out of double sided tape!! *aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
That's because I made some cards to sell for Queensday (30th April we celebrate the Queen's birthday, even though it was the Queen's mother's birthday). Really love them a lot and the people who saw them said they are really cute :)
But on 30th April the weatherforecast wasn't that great... loads of rain, with some sun, so I didn't want to ruin my handmade items, so didn't go. Better luck next time.
Made my cards with the cute Sugar Nellie, Magnolia and Penny Black stamps. I just soooooooo love them!!

Back to the tape... I wanted to buy new tape this morning (can you imagine... 29th April I run out of tape, 30th all the shops who sell it are closed, and 1st May all the other shops are also closed), but the first shop I went to didn't sell it anymore and up to my round-the-corner hobbyshop.
There I found out they are closed today (2nd May) and tomorrow!!!
So that means: today, tomorrow, Sunday and Monday (that's their regular closed day...) no tape for me to buy!!
Well... I know what to do... I will just colour some stamped images so I will be able to stick them to the papers as soon as I have more tape.
Have to admit it... I'm a real double-sided tape addict.

For the rest... everything is going alright.
Have some difficulties to cope with, but that's ok. It's part of life. I will not write it down here.

Anyways... Jet and Gizmo (my 2 cats) are just sooooooo lovely. They're really enjoying the nice weather and my balcony (attached with a chain, otherwise they're in my neighbour's gardens with the chickens and dogs...hehe...

Will post some cards tomorrow or at least this week if internet is still working properly :)
See ya!
