Getting inspired in the Netherlands

Wow! It's been ages since I've done anything at all in here! I can almost see cob webs and piles of dust on my old posts!

Surprisingly, I've been busy trying to finish the tasks on my to-do list and... I've actually managed to finish two of them! Yeey!! I'll post pics when I get them transfered to my PC :-) This weekend I visited the flower market in Amsterdam, and what I wonderful sight it was!! Flowers and bulbs everywhere! Lots of tulips in every colour (of course) and lots of other beautiful flowers as well! I'll post lots of pictures of them as well, so stay tuned!

New logo

Digiscrapping is so much fun! I've still got lots to learn, but eventually I'll get there in due time :-) As you can seen, I've made a brand new logo for my blog... hehehe... it's so huge it takes up the entire page! Don't worry... I'm working on a new version :-)

Digiscrap

Yeey! My very first digiscrap! I've never even tried scrapping in real life! This is lots of fun! I used photshop to help me put things together and I downloaded free digiscrap stuff from shabbyprincess.com. She's got lots of great stuff for free!

No progress...

YIKES! Still haven't managed to accomplish any of the points in my to-do list! Well, still got more than a month :-)

As a consolation, I made the ULTIMATE bargain scoop this Friday. I came over a "sack sale" in Norwegian it's called posesalg, which means you can fill a shopping bag with as much goods as possible for a given price. This was actually a closeout sale and the shop was trying to get rid of the rest of their products that day. They sold a shopping bag for 100 NOK (ca. 20 USD) and you could fill it with whatever you wanted from the store! Being a "great" economist (hahahahaha)... I went for the most expensive products that they had! I grabbed:

2 sets of sugar bowl and creamer from Stelton (retail price 140 USD/set)



3 pcs. Stelton Luggage tags (retail price 39 USD/ pc.)
1 pcs. Stelton phone strap (retails at 60 USD)



8 pcs. Rosendahl - Karen Blixen's Christmas candle holder for tree (retail price 30 USD/ pc.)



2 bottles of body lotion (Retail price 12 USD/ bottle)



2 sets of knobs for drawers and cupboard doors (30 USD/ set)




3 pcs. silicon spatula (Retail price 10 USD/ pcs) Sorry no pic!


GRAND TOTAL: 811 USD!

And all I paid was 20 USD!!! Can you believe it?!?!?!?! I'm still ecstatic about my scoop!
