Here is a bit of good news, it made me smile when i got it in the mail.
Thank you to all my fellow Artist's for all the fun I had making these book together with them, and a big thank you to Marilyn for inviting me to be part of great sisterhood.
Somerset did an amazing job with this book.
I am so sorry for being gone this long but I am affraid that it will be for a while longer, as I am going through a very hard time in my married life right now. My time will be spend on taking care of my children, who is the ones who is suffering the most because of the whole "D" thing, so I will be back some time in the New Year, when I have something happy and exciting to post about.
I do post on Facebook, because it is fast and easy, so u can catch up with me there.
Have a Happy Holidays every one.
These two are the ones who will get me through the holidays this year, LOVE them...
I made this layout for my friend Gitte in Denmark, who just went through a very painful surgery, and needed a little something from me. I love this picture of her from my recent trip home in Aug.
I used Pink Paisley Vintage Moon for this layout, Love that line.
Hope you feel better soon my friend.
hugs,
helle
Every year in Aug. I go home to Denmark on a little trip all by myself, which is a very special treat, because I get to spend some quailty time with my friends and family.
This trip turned out to be extra special, because as you can read in my earlier post this would be my last time I would see my Grandmother.
I had some really fun days with her, the last day I was down to visit with her, I cut her hair, we sang songs, and told jokes, and laughed a lot, I have such a great fresh memory of her.
Okay on to some pictures.
Danish flags always makes me happy.
Another one that makes me very happy, my very best friend Gitte. And is this the cutest house ever???
I love Danish mail boxes.
I have a" thing" for pretty doors...
So pretty, don't you think?
Let's go shopping, these are real flowers, oh my...
ahh...
Can't forget this pretty door.
Time for a Cafe Latte and old fashion aeble kage...
This picture is to remind my friend Gitte, how funny she is. She is going in to surgery soon, and I want her to think of this day, when she gets ready for surgery. Taenk paa denne dag Gitte, nar du har en dag du foler dig trist. Hvor havde vi det sjovt. Stort knus.
The Danish Queen's youngest son Prince Joachim lives here.
Let's move on to some yummy Green gate...
I would love this whole cabinet.
Here we are at Fashion week in Copenhagen, lot's of fun displays.

Look what I had sleeping with me every night while there.
More cuteness Felix and Emilie, Gitte's daughter and dog.
I have many more pictures but I think this will have to do for now.
Enjoy!!!
I will miss you so much.
Sunday morning my sweet Grandmother in Denmark passed away, and in a couple of hours she will have her funeral among my whole family back home.
I am so sad I won't be there in person, but so glad that I got to spend some really fun days with her on my recent trip back home.
She was so much fun and a real firecracker, I will miss her dearly.
I will post all my great Danish pictures soon, just going through a rough time right now.

The first night in Chicago Michelle woke up at 4AM with MAJOR tooth pain, due to a root canal she had done prior to our trip. So here we are at 4 in the morning driving around in a taxi ($40) to find a 24 hour pharmacy that is open, to get her medicin that her doctor wich we called and woke up at 3am, had called in from San Diego. Oh man what a start on a day, and poor Michelle she was in so much pain.
