As I have shared with you before I have made a few custom alphabet posters for some babies in my family. Lately I have had a couple of people asking about the posters, and two friends comissioned me to create one for them. I have one ready to share with you today. My friend wanted a more grown up version; sleek and modern letting the letters and words do all the talking. This is the finished

I've got a really vibrant and colourful kit debuting today in my shop at JessicaSprague.com. I wanted to create a warm and fun paper pack - something I don't often do - and cooked up a colourful palette with reds, pinks, and oranges. I paired that with classic patterns for that truly modern feel. Of course, these will work perfectly for Valentine projects and layouts but with the classic patterns

The husband is an avid guitar player. He picked it up just a little over two years ago and has been determined to teach himself to play. Every day he spends some time with "the girls". It's become a normal part of every day life in our house, which means it's only natural that one of the beauties gets to be part of Project 52. Tomorrow, a giveaway. Don't miss it!

As the rain/snow is falling outside of my window, I find myself longing for summer with its warmth, its aroma, and its colour. I long for blue skies and ballet flats. I long for sweet raspberries and warm nights. I long for ice cream and pink roses. How about you?

Yay! Time for the next two parts of the Kickin' It collection. I was inspired for a while there when I designed this collection, and cooked up a whole new paper pack as well as an alpha set. I really want to stress that the papers, elements, and alpha of this collection works really well even if you don't have football/soccer stories to tell of photographs to scrap. Out of the 24 papers in the

Here we are again, starting project 52 all over again. This time for the fourth time. I always feel like it's a whole new world when I get to wrap up the year before and start fresh. I should have posted the first photo last week, but things came in the way and then I just thought I'd wait until I had this week's photo finished to post. So here we go with the two first weeks of P52, 2012: My

As I think has been made perfectly clear to most of you who have followed this blog for a while, I really love watching, and keeping up with, football (soccer). I love that this sport can give experiences in every range on the emotional spectrum; from utter bliss to complete desperation, and everything in between. I like the flow of the game and how it can easily change of the course of 90

The huband and I have been thinking about repainting large parts of our house for a while now. At the moment the entry/kitchen/living room area (which is pretty much the larger part of the house) is painted in a tan/cream colour. Even though it's still nice and in good condition I am lusting for bright and crisp white. The painting is planned to be started, and hopefully finished, in about a week

Woohoo! I am so excited to write this post! The other day I decided it was time to start looking into sending out a newsletter every now and then. Said and done, I bravely set out into the interwebs to research how to go about it. Soon I was knee deep in instruction videos, building sign on forms, and designing a decent enough newsletter to send to anyone and everyone interested. Last night,

Oh you guys, I am so excited for this new kit! I have been wanting to do a sporty kit for ages, and one especially devoted to the wonderful (the one and only, according to me) sport called football.

I debated writing this post at first. I really wanted to do a look back at my work from the past year, but I also knew that I have basically sucked big time when it comes to scrapbooking for the longest time now. OK, so since I started designing to be honest. So I was thinking that making a favourites post when I haven't really done anything would pretty much redundant. "Yeah, look at my ten

Round up time! After trying real hard to fit new things into my life in the past year, I feel I need to take stock and have a look back at what I accomplished, and what challenges I will have to look forward to in the future. At the beginning of 2011 I wrote a list of things that would be neat to do. The list didn't have 52 things on it, I'm not that imaginative, but it did have enough to keep

On Christmas Eve, the day of celebration in Sweden, we had a very nice and quiet - I don't want to say dinner because we started around noon and finished sometime after 8pm, so let's go with day of food with my family. To match my Christmas decorations, and incidentally also the gifts, I decorated the table with all white on white on white on white. Delicate and crisp and pretty was the way to go

So I took this class on JessicaSprague.com that had me super inspired to bust out the glue and actually make something tangible for once. It was the Mouse, Paper, Scissors Give class that Jessica team taught with Heidi Swapp. The class objective was to create hybrid gifts, just in time for the holidays. The first gift I made was a calendar for my mother. She has been asking me for years to make

I tell you, fireworks are tricky to shoot. We usually only have fireworks on New Years Eve around here. That alone is an obstacle as we are usually either hosting or attending a party so there is rarely time for preparations, and who fits a tripod in a tiny little silk clutch anyway? Plus, after some champagne the trigger finger might not be the steadiest. Then there's the technical issues ...

With only a few more hours to spare of 2011, I thought I would squeeze in a last post. Life in the last couple of weeks this year has been brutal on me. With lots of overtime and preparations for the holidays, and then being hit with first a sprained neck, and then a stomach bug, I have just barely made it by. So, for the last post of the year, what not to feature but the one thing that has

OK, so I felt the need to reshoot the Christmas presents. Here we go again! So that's white on white with matte wrapping paper, with fabric lace, satin ribbon, paper doilies. I also used silver ink to stamp the initial of the recipient and the "God Jul" (which means Merry Christmas in Swedish), silver wax seals with a snowflake motif (can't leave the snowflakes out), and a sparkly silver pen

I was waiting all week for the weekend to arrive so that there would be enough light to take this shot. I love my country, but the darkness - oh the darkness is a pain in the butt. It's dark until way past 8am and then it's back again well before 4pm. So, being part of the working force, that means I am never at home during light hours in the winter. It's a pain I tell you. But today there was

Seeing as all the cards are posted, and hopefully will arrive at the beginning of the coming week, I thought I'd post them here. Now, I always have plans to make the cards by hand. About half of the times I run out of time and have to quickly whip something up in Photoshop. I have this idea that Christmas cards should be handmade and so when I don't get to do that I can't help but feel a little

After a full week away on a business trip, I have had a truly busy weekend to catch up with everything that needs to be done for Christmas - like presents to make, buy, and wrap, and  decorations to finish, I haven't had a single minute to sit down in front of the computer. It has actually been a full week since I even opened it last. I can't even remember when that happened before this week.

This week I finished a project I have been working on for the whole month of November. I found a photo challenge on Pinterest with prompts for each day of the month and thought it would be cool to give it a go. I've done the photo a day challenges before, but never before with specific prompts and never with my phone, so it would be a new experience for me. I got a little behind every now and

Last week was my second week off work, and it was all spent in the house, watching tv, reading, designing, cleaning, recouperating, and relaxing. It was marvellous, but it also meant that my only new thing was the monthly cooking of a three course meal. I am not beating myself up about it. I really needed some time off to just be myself and not worry about anything. And I keep telling myself

I had my second photography class this week and for this time we had a new assignment. We were all supposed to take photos at the same place in our city; a large and busy square in the centre. Now those kinds of assignments always make me really nervous, simply because my performance anxiety kicks in high gear and tells me I need to be perfect to measure up to everyone else. I worked through

This is just a quick note to say that YAY! one of my table scapes was featured at Hostess With the Mostess last week. Since I was away I missed the day it went live, hence my late posting. The HWTM blog is my favourite place to go to when looking for inspiration for party decorations so being featured is a very, very huge honour for me. And, yeah, the excitement when I found out was as big as

Seeing as I spent most of the past week in Italy, of course the week's photo had to be from there. I haven't had time to start looking through and editing my photos yet, but I knew when I snapped this one that I would love it. And I do, even though it's not technically correct. I think I have about fifty or something photos from the Vittorio Emanuele II galleria; I take new ones every time we

One of the things I had on my list of things to do this year when I first started the project was to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary with a really good champagne on a trip outside of the country. On our honeymoon in Thailand we said we'd go back for our 10th, then that destination changed over the years to NYC. This year we finally decided to go to Italy and Milano. So we have spent the

My Thursday love this week is me! Today is my wedding day! Yay! This is us 10 years ago. Please, please disregard the atrocious scrapbook layout - I made it for our 6th anniversary, I was new to scrapbooking and really didn't know what the heck I was doing. What you should focus on is the photo in the layout. I couldn't be bothered to go look for digital copies of the wedding photos so you

I am going to be indesposed for the remainder of the week, as I am allowing myself to step away from the computer for just a minute and enjoy the 10th anniversary of getting married to the the most wonderful husband in the universe. True story. But before I go, I thought I'd share with you a little sneak peek of a new product coming to JessicaSprague.com next week. I guess no explanatory words

I have to say, I am a pretty lucky girl to have beauty like this about two hundred metres from my office building. On days when it's totally intense and it feels like the head is going to explode, it's so lovely to just pop out for fifteen or twenty minutes and exhale. Right now the park is exploding in pretty colours and crunchy sounds of fallen leaves. It had to be a photo from the park this

A year ago I created alphabet posters for our godson and for our friends' daughter, and I knew I wanted to make one for my nephew as well. His first birthday (celebrated this weekend) was the perfect opportunity. I really like this idea. It's a custom version of a great tradition for nursery or playroom, and I just know it will be cherished forever. I also really like the combination of fonts. :)

I was told about a photo project that a local photographer arranged for 11.11.11. The project was open for anyone and the challenge was pretty simple: take one or several photos in the city of Malmö (that's my hometown) and then upload to the project site. The main purpose was to show Malmö on that special day. Out of the (thousands, I'm sure) photos submitted they will choose a certain number to

When I think about Christmas I think about the warm, loud, and fun Christmases of my childhood at my grandmother and grandfather's place. We would all gather early on Christmas Eve, aunts and uncles, cousins, babies,  and doggies and then spend all day and night eating, playing games, talking, and just generally wreak havoc until it was finally time to sit down and wait for Santa to come and give

One of my very favorite traditions that we observe here in Sweden is All Saints Day. No matter if one is religious or not, and no matter how or why it came about, I think it is such a beautiful and respectful thing to honour loved ones who are no longer with us by lighting candles and placing flowers at the cemetaries. The husband and I do this every year and we spend some time talking about the

So the other week I wrote about my opportunity to go on a photo walk with my dad's photography group. I went, as you know, and it just so happened that I was invited to join the group. The group meet about two or three times a month and though technically it's a class they have it set up more like a discussion where all the class members participate and contribute. Each member brings three or

The husband likes to celebrate his birthday every year with a dinner party. This year we held the party for parents and siblings (and still managed to have 15 guests) and had a lovely time. The food, curtesy of the husband, was lovely as always and I even managed to make an apple and pecan cheesecake (although I used a different recipe for the actual cheesy part). Now, knowing me you can be sure

Since getting my iphone - I know, I know, very late in the game - I have been completely hooked on using the camera phone and the super awesome apps available for photography taking and editing. I have found a great love for the Instagram app and use it extensively every day. It was when I was uploading them to the computer one day that I realized I needed to document them in some way. And from

Last week I was invited to join a photo walk with the photography group that my dad is a member of. It was my very first photo walk. I did sign up for a Scott Kelby photo walk in my city a few years ago but chickened out when I got emails from the local organizers about all the equipment they recommended.

This weekend has been quite glorious. All thanks to one super cute little nephew of mine. He is a joy to be around, and this weekend we got the chance to be around him for two days. Of course, this week's photo had to be of him. I know this photo is technically not the best, but I like the sunbursts at the crown of his head, and the clarity of his eyes. I think it's a good example of something

Today I woke up with a headache for the fourth day in a row, and after spending yesterday in bed, I really felt I needed some fresh air in my system. So I hopped on the steel horse - the bike - and rode the few minutes it takes to get to a woodsy area near us. And boy did I need it. I am so not a woodsy person at all. I'm a city girl through and through and don't really feel comfortable with all

Almost a little shy of a year ago I shared two photos of a table setting I did for a birthday party (the husband's). In that post I said I would dedicate a whole post about the table itself. Well, here we are a year later, and can decidedly say that I never did. Ha! But I thought, with autumn at our doorstep and holidays coming up, it would be neat to take a look at it now. The whole theme was

I feel like I need to get my butt in gear when it comes to new things in my life. For the past several weeks I have just been stuck in my usual tracks, doing what I do every single day. One would have thought that I would be used to thinking new by now, 39 weeks into the year. But I guess 37 years of same old same old weighs heavier ... Shape up, girl! For this week, a couple of little new

We have had fantastic weather for about a week and a half, and the last couple of days have been warmer than most days this summer. I think it's due to this that all of a sudden there were three buds on my clematis at the beginning of the week. Yesterday two of them were in full bloom and I just had to document it, as this clematis is supposed to be an early blooming type with flowers in May.

After getting some nice tips on great fonts on blogs around the interwebs I thought I would repay the favor and share some fonts that I have a big love for. Now, I think maybe this will have to be a recurring theme because when I browse the hundreds of fonts I have accumulated over the years I see so many favourites. It's an illness, I think, loving fonts. But it's an illness I don't mind having.

We've been having a sudden and unexpected, but very much welcome, stint of warm and sunny weather for a while now. This past weekend it was really warm - about as warm as one would expect a good day in June to be - and that, combined with all the beautiful colours of the changing leaves, had me in a good mood to run out beside our house and snap a couple of pics of the trees.  I love these kind

Uh, two weeks to catch up on again. Sheesh, what is wrong with me? I've been thinking for the longest time about getting a second camera. I love my Nikon dSLR. I think it takes awesome, high quality images and I know how to work it. But the big drawback is that I keep getting turned away at places and events because of the wide spread ignorance about people with "big" cameras. I don't want to

At the beginning of August my sister and her boyfriend came from Italy to visit (it's been long enough that she has been living there for her to not say she is coming home when she comes here), and we had a little welcome party with the family at our house. I set the table for dinner in a soft colour scheme with a bit of a traditional feel to it. Pretty linens in a beige colour

Yesterday we got up bright and early so that we could go to the farmer's market in town. We haven't had a chance to go since it started back up after the summer break (they do a couple of months in the spring and then again in the autumn) and so we both felt it would be a great outing for a Saturday morning. And it was. The air was crisp and fresh, and there were lots of good stuff to

Wow, time sure does fly. Not only when you are having fun but also just gerenally. :) I think it was four weeks since I posted about my weekly photos. So prepare for an onslaught, if you can call four an onslaugh, of photos. During our last week on holiday I painted the fence on our deck and we added a new piece to it for stability. It turned out really nicely (and stable), and even though

Have you seen the layout in the right hand column under the "Me, myself, and I" label? I've had a layout there for a while now that I have updated every once in a while. Today I linked it up to a page with a bunch of layouts I have created throughout the years. Now, these aren't the complete works because, let's face it, there are some layouts (particularly from the early days) that make me

I spend a couple of times a month away from home on work trips. The days are usually long and intensive and it's really nice to come back to a nice hotel in the evening and just relax in front of the telly. The hotel we usually stay in, Clarion Sign, is lovely with a modern style that is just up my alley. The last time I was there, last week, I snapped a few pics and thought they deserved to be

Alright, two weekends ago I woke up early and didn't really know what to do with my day. I thought long and hard on what would be fun enough for a Saturday in September. Cleaning? No! Gardening? No! Ironing? God forbid! In the end I pestered the husband until he couldn't take it any longer and gave me a ride into town so that I could get myself one of these: What a neat little gadget it is! I

It feels like it was ages and ages since I scrapped last. I actually had to scroll down in the blog to see what it was I did. Granted, I don't scrap all that much anymore - which is a big shame - but it really has been too long. So with being hit by a cold on Friday, and spending the weekend on the sofa, I finally had some time to play around a little. These photos, which were taken on my

I know I have been MIA for a while here. I never meant to leave y'all hanging. I just hit a huge mother of a wall and had to remove myself from a number of stress factors in my life. If I am sparse here for a week or so, I ask for your understanding, and for cutting me some slack. I just need to rest up for a bit. Lots of love to you all!

Um, I think I never wrote about my adventure in newness last week. So please bear with me while I get back on track here. :) OK, so last week I decided to up the ante on my cooking part of this year's challenge to myself by announcing that I cook dinner (or lunch) every day of the week. You guys should have seen the husband's face when I said it. It was a mix of disbelief, amusement, and worry.

This week has consisted of a lot of working in our garden. We built a big raised flowerbed and painted and added to a fence on our deck. We also cleared out both of our walk in closets (that contains anything and everything but clothes) and made about a thousand runs to the city dump. It's been hard work, but it feels really good to have it done. So the photo of the week has to be related to

Even though the actual work itself isn't all that exciting, the finished product so totally is. We built this "roman bath" (we joked that if we covered it with plastic inside we could totally use it as a tub) together, just the two of us. We will plant something pretty and colourful as soon as we have decided what that pretty and colourful is.

We went to the island Öland with my sister and her boyfriend for a few days during our first week off work. I decided to make a little mini photo book for them to take back to Italy as a memento. I printed it at home and put it together by glueing the backs together. I am quite sure it won't hold up forever, but it looked nice. Ha! My main focus was the photos. I didn't do any journaling at all,

Last week wasn't all too exciting. It rained a lot. We spent a lot of time watching telly and playing cards. We did go bowling, which I shared a photo of in my New52 post, and watched a football game between our local team and AC Milan (DSLRs weren't allowed in the stadium so I didn't bring it, although I totally could have), and we had a crayfish party at my mother's place. I baked for the party

On thing that I've been meaning to do for ages and ages is getting comfortable with ACR editing. Yah, I know, after so many years photographing and working with PS, I still couldn't get my photos looking like I wanted them to in ACR. Pathetic. It was something about the white balance that I just never could get right. This of course means that I have been forced to always shoot JPEG, no matter if

Our summer vacation has finally started, we're actually on our second week of three right now, and it's been really lovely so far. Our home team MFF welcomed Scottish Glasgow Rangers in a Champions League qualifications game. The pre game tifosi was awesome, and the atmosphere was just mindblowing. It was a long time ago since we experienced such a great attitude from the public. Best thing of

Alright, two weeks to cover in this post! The week before last I was determined to learn how to make a French braid. I have never been able to get it right before but lately I have been quite tired of ust keeping my hair hanging straight or in a pony tail. I had about as much success with this as with the sock curls the other week, but I kept going until I thought my arms were going to fall off.
