Best Free

Scrapmojo. I have been sneaking around that challenge blog for quite some time now, but never before had or taken me the time to complete a challenge.

For number 17 the challenge was to pick a Ditty Bops song and use the lyrics somewhere some how on the page. A second part was to doodle.

I picked a thoughtworthy part of the lyrics for Angel with an attitude. That is

"Contrary to popular opinion
the very BEST things in life
are for FREE"

And I scrapped with a paper which used to be a poster. Then it was run over by cars. Several cars... And yes, it was for free. ;) I found it late afternoon (that is the 15th of July) when I was on my way to fetch him up from Kindergarten... It was just laying there dirty, torn, weared and shiny bright waiting to be scrapped. ;)


You can also read another message on this page which has to do with me, myself and I... can you see it? :) This page is sparsly decorated - as compared to many other pages I have made - but there is still a lot of things going on. The colors, the contrasts, the soft versus the hard material, the texture, the rough paper, the handwritten (doodled) text and so on...

Vintage pixi books

Last week, by accident, I found a small plastic bag containing three of those small books which I remember from my own childhood.

I saw that these where older than that, but I couldn't look through them in advance. In some way I realised anyway that I would like... or even love... them. So I took them home. Then I forgot to open the bag...

Until today. And see for yourself what amaising books that little bag contained. "Shit påmfritt" is the correct words.

You can guess what I am going to read for him later tonight...

Papier Poudré

A while ago, I promised to show this "strange" vintage thing that I recieved from incaos. It's called "Papier Poudré" and it is exactly what it sound like. Have you ever before heard of paper with scented powder? The inside of the cover reads:

"When travelling, heated by exercise or by a close atmosphere, 'Papier Poudré' will cleanse and refresh the skin, as the paper has special absorbent qualities for cleansing the pores without clogging, removing all 'shine' and dust and leaving a trace of delicately powder.

'Papier Poudré' is indispensible to all busy woman as no powder can be split and no mirror is required.

Men will also find 'Papier Poudré' most pleasent to use after shaving, leaving the skin smooth and cool."

Isn't that awesome so say?
