Weekend

Notes from previous Sunday. 

Grass in a rain. 

Curious fish in a pond. 

Couple of white horses. 

I love weekends...

Wedding album, here i come

Finally, finally with autumn knocking on my door I feel like working on our wedding album. Yes, it's true, I haven't done one yet. What a shame. Actually, not. I'm very happy and know that this is the perfect season for it. Having discovered wonderful digital kits and colourful papers for making a perfect album I can't wait. At the moment, take a peek at Crate Paper's new collections that will arrive in my local scrapbooking store in two weeks (I asked them to call me when the papers arrive, so exciting!).

Fundraiser for Madagascar

I have a lovely friend Angelina who wants to go to Madagascar this July to help the poor and teach them how to feed themselves and succeed in life. Because Angelina makes jewellery she decided to organise a fundraiser for her trip. I offered to make some stationary that also would be up for sales and help Angelina to raise more support. Other friend Jasmine offered her broches up for sale, too.

On a beautiful Saturday night we had lots of girls turn up for the fundraiser. We had nibblies, lots of girly conversations and ... a success! Angelina got some support for her trip.

Thanks to everybody who turned up and chipped in towards such a great cause!

December daily album 2010: 2nd update

Hello my friends. I'm working my way through the "December daily" album. I'm doing my best, but there's so much to do. Finally I think I have half of the album printed and slowly, slowly catching a monkey I hope to finish it.

There are few pictures from what I have accomplished:

I have a Latvian blog, too!

Hey my Latvian friends and those who can read in Latvian. I have created a Latvian version of my blog and you can find it here:

CoffeeCup album

I have a lovely Canadian friend whom I met here, in Australia. While spending a half a year in a volunteer's school we both enjoyed our breaks - conversations in a park, coffee times and doing nothing.

I made this album for my friend using Starbucks cup layout, few pictures and embellishments. I was encouraged by Wilna Furstenberg who created the coffeecup kit and uploaded it for free on TwoPeasInABucket website. I'm sure I will make few more CoffeeCup albums - I love this layout so much :)

Who doesn't love Amelie?

"Parlez-vous français?"
I wish...
Even when I don't speak French I'm still amazed about the movie "Amelie". I love Amelie's spirit of adventure and romance throughout the movie. It's a perfect mix (at least that's what girls think :))...


I found a wonderful video today that was inspired by this movie. I love the colours, the music, the atmosphere and table setting.. Don't you? 


Take a look yourself about this 'happily ever after' episode in Amelie's life ;) (I mean a photoshoot by Meg Perroti for a wedding that was inspired by the movie):

Amelie inspired photo shoot  and the video by Lovespun.

I found this fabulous photoshoot in the Nonpareil magazine.

And yes, by the way, HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's here already and hope you are happy, too! :)
