Layouts

Here are two lo's I made with my stuff... :D

Kiss

At the Kermis

What's new?

Spring has 'officially' arrived here!

The weather has been so lovely the past few days... On the weekend we even managed to go out without any jacket at all (YAY)! I'm thrilled to have warm sunny days again!

We had a great day on saturday... We went to town carrying the kids in the buggys instead of the heavy double stroller, Lucas and Samantha were really glad to be without the sleeping bags and winter jackets (can't blame them, can we?).

We bought their first real shoes (we avoided 'restraining' their feet till it was actually needed) and Samantha wasn't really thrilled about that! The girl hate socks, let alone shoes... She only calmed down when the lady at the store gave them a cookie. The result? The shoe left the store already dirt with chocolate!!! LOL

After town we went to the park across the street from home and played with them a little... Not sure who enjoyed the swings the most... the kids or the parents... haha

Sunday was nice and easy... Just the way it's supposed to be!!! ;)

Ok, so HERE's what I actually set out to tell you...

This weekend I started playing around with photoshop trying to find my way into the designing world... I'm still going around blindly, not really sure where to begin, how to do stuff, searching for tutorials and trying to keep all the copyright stuff in order in my head. But I did come up with something and I'd like to share the results with you.

I'd loooooooove if you could give some feedback (constructive criticism is always welcome) so I know if I'm on the right track or not.

So without any further ado, here they are! ;)

So this is what I'm gonna do... everytime I learn something and/or make something new I'll post it here as a freebie... hope someone will find them useful! :D

Hugs to all,

Livia.

Baaaad Blogger!

Ok... not off to a very good start, huh?
An entire week without showing my face here! I guess I'm still not entirely used to the idea of being a blogger (is that excuse too lame? lol)

And actually... I'm cheating 'cause this post is just a quick note to say I'll be back soon (probably tomorrow) with some news!

Hugs to all,
Livia.

Me a Blogger???

Well, well.... Me with a blog! Who would've thought???

I most certainly didn't!

I had diaries as I was growing up, but they were very private parts of me and no one was allowed near it. So the idea of having a blog was a bit 'weird' to me... But since I've moved to the Netherlands I've been toying with the idea of having some sort of page so I could share photos and facts of my daily life with my family and friends. That hasn't happened yet... I'm still sending everything via emails (seems even kinda old fashioned nowadays, huh? lol).

Now being a part of the Digiscrapping comunity I've come to find blogs a really fun way to keep in touch with old friends and making new ones. So here I am in this new 'venture'... Blogging!!!

So...I hope you bear with me and my overuse of exclamation points and ellipsis marks (had to chek in the dictionary what those were called in english... :P), my possible grammar/spelling mistakes (I try my best to avoid those, but english is not my mother language and they do happen, so please feel free to correct me anytime, ok?) and my sometimes neverending babbles.

I guess that's all for now...

Hugs to all,
Livia.
