ca 20% til deg og en gave til meg

Hei igjen. Jeg fant denne butikken her forleden.

Dersom du som meg liker å handle på glassmagasinet, men er litt arg pga de litt høye prisene så er kanskje dette stedet for deg (og for meg...)

Dette er et glassmagasin på internett med de fleste kjente merkevarene. De har et bredt utvalg og best av alt prisene ligger ca 20% under butikkpris. Jeg har tipset deg om dette og har derfor opparbeidet meg retten til å motta vervegaver, derfor, om du skulle bestemme deg for å handle noe i butikken så være vennelig å referer til meg som din tipser. Skriv da i kommentarfeltet som du finner i kasse systemet Jeg ble vervet av ”Navn og e-post adresse”.

Jeg ligger der som Pelle Rykhus, pelleryk@online.no

Jeg hadde blitt så glad om du gjorde dette!!!
Når du gjør din første handel får jeg 1 poeng.

Om jeg er heldig er det 8 av dere som går inn å kjøper dere en ting og referer til meg også får jeg den lampen dere ser øverst...

Om det er noen som skal på bursdagen min til sommern så kan jeg jo alltids nevne at jeg ønsker meg UNA bestikk deler... alle slag. Så kan man slå 2 fluer i en smekk. Kjøpe bursdagsgave til meg og gi meg et poeng i tillegg og vips så blir det koselig lys i stua mi som en bonus neste gang du kommer på besøk... (gosh - jeg føler meg som en tigger...)

Håper du liker tipset mitt og husk du kan selv tipse andre og tjene de samme fine verve gavene!!

Lucky or Spoiled?

Today when I was at "Glassmagasinet" I saw this little beauty - and there was no chance I could pass it without - buy it. So now our cat, Alfa has it.

I thought, since she has an italian name - she has to have an italian eating plate...

Now I feel she is more like she wants to be, my little Allessi cat... (lol)

Atleast she does not look as if she does not like it.

Today I am also a very happy guy.

Next week there is a huge interior expo in Norway. First I was told (at school) I might get a ticket, then I was told - maybe u get a little of it. Like if the class get 5 tickets we all split on the costs. So I contacted some of the stores who are to be there. and thanks to some great companyes in Norway, Sweden and Denmark - me and some of my friends now can go to this "Expo".

All I can say is a huge Thanks!!!!!

Tomorrow I hope to do some scrapping. I have some great ideas, just had a little to little time lately, with all the new stuff in school... but hopefully I make it tomorrow.

Untill next time, have a great day!!!

Here u see our cat, she has just been eating and wantes to go out to tell all the neighbour-cats of her new present!!

A new life

For the first time for a long time I feel: I am about to start my new life.

One week ago I started my education to become an Interior designer. hopefully I can complete it with 3 yrs in Dublin (Ireland) with a master so I will be an Interior Arcitect - but that is some yrs in the future, so now I consentrate on this 2 yrs first.

Last week was an intensive drawing course, 5 days - 8 hours at school and 6 hours more at home after school. So today I am totaly exhausted, and my plans for the weekend are nothing... Exept - I am going to paint our bedroom, the roof and the walls. hopefully I on monday can say it is done...

I also play a little in Photoshop - whenever I have some spare time. I am very amased over what this tool can do, and how great it will be for my scrappbooking. But not only. Also in my education this will become a great tool, when I only start to understand more...

I have a very good freind, Betty, hopefully she think it is ok that I used a picture of her to play with this time... U can see the ressault here...

Have a great weekend E1

Mer potoshop

Igår var jeg nær ved å slette hele photoshop og bare gi opp hele greia, inatt satt jeg og lekte i allt for mange timer og fortsatte så fort jeg kom meg opp, og helt frem til nå... Jeg fikk til så mye at jeg er reint i sjokk over meg selv at det er mulig.

Særlig når jeg tenker på at jeg kanskje har skjønt 1 promille og hvor mange gleder jeg skal få fremover...

Idag har jeg fortsatt på øyet mitt, lagt på skarphet, grums, hvitt, tonet opp lyse skygger og ned mørke skygger... Og ressultatet, vel det ser du jo helt først her... Så kan du sammenligne med det øyet i forrige innlegg...

Jeg viste det til Tom, men han brukte bare 1 sekund på å si "fint" også fortsatte han med sitt...hehe. Sikkert flere som kjenner seg igjen i det, men gleden er jo å skjønne ting å få til noe en trodde var umulig...

Photoshop.. Lomo +

Jeg satte meg ned for kanskje 7 timer siden, for jeg skulle bare helt enkelt gi Tom litt mer blå øyne på et bilde jeg skal lage en LO av, også gi resten av ham mer grå-tone. så tenkte at jeg det er jo en enkel sak med Photoshop ja...

Jommen sa jeg smør.

Jeg skulle bruke Lomografi-effekt - men SKRIIIIK så brukte jeg altså 6.5 timer bare på å finne ut, at i CS3 har den byttet plass.

Nå kan det jo bare være meg som er så treg som ikke har skjønt det før nå, men om det er noen andre som har lett - værsågod her er løsningen altså...

Dere finner den igjen under Select - modify og adjust. Her er det bare å lete frem hue og vips så er du igang...

Så når jeg først var igang så lekte jeg litt mer, la på litt "fake" (som om det å distresse og slipe det til gjør det mer ekte?) effekster så bildet mitt skulle bli gammelt og slitt...

Og jeg ble super fornøyd med ressultatet mitt...

Slik som du ser under her så bildet i utgangspunktet ut...

Den store bestemor boka - grandma's book

About one year ago i was totaly ecaused after that's pre-christmas projekt, wich was to create 5 12x12 albums - each with 40 LO's.. the ressault for me back then, was that I used all my inspiration and creativity to make them - and did nothing at all for 8 month.
So this year I had to do something else, and i came up with the great idea.


"Den Store Bestemor Boka" ("Grandmas Big Book Of Us")

I used about the same time, but this became more a projekt of fun, and not at projekt "lots of work - have to be done quick!!"

This time I felt I could play with my new knowledge and my new style. I could use all the stuff i wanted to, and not think to much of what the reciver would think.
Offcourse I forgot to take a picture of the done book - but I can tell u it was huge.

I made the book myself, all from binding the book, hand quilted the pages, and deco it my self so it should be a 100% homemade book in 1 copy, for the greatest person in my family - my grandmother.

I have used all kind of materials, as u can see below (in the next frame). All the well known things for a scrapbooking person, to things who maybe doesn't belong here, but I feel they do so they came in.

I tried some new stuff 2, like making a LO on top of a Hambly overlay. I have made one more after this album, but I maybe think that would be the last one, cause i find it to difficult, difficult to make it work.
On a coupple of LO's i have used a piece of overlay and melted it in the edges to make a kind of outline - so that the point of the picture, not should be 2 hidden in all the deco.
I have used lot's of buttons to make shapes, and even more flowers to make, almost like small sculpures in the LO.

All the way making it I tried to challenge myself, tried to make the next one even more detailed than the last one, and fill it with things I havn't seen anyone else do so far.
Off Course, I know it is almost impossible to do a very new thing in this world.
But not seen by me make me belive i made it up...
At least till I see that someone else also got "this" great idea - just beore me.. (smile)

The one I am most satisfied with is the yellow one called "Herman". Here I have used lots of brads in a way I have never done before. Like to stich the red flower to the background, or the ribbon u see on right side. Also, I tried to outline the chip boards in a way I haven't done before, and I discoverd, there is a whole new world waiting for me (to go shopping..), and learn some new stuff.
LO number 8 is made by Vibeke S - one of the master of scrappbooking in Norway. We was on a gathering and she didn't feel any of her own pictures talk to her, so I gave her one of mine and asked if she could do anything with it, well as u see, She did alot out of it!!!

So thank you Vibeke!!


When I was finnishing the album i quilted it together, so on page 2 was the journaling and page 3 showd the LO, page 4 was more journalig and page 5 a new LO.
I made 12 LO's and 13 pages with journaling. When I vissit grandma next time I'll take a picture of it so u can see it yourself. It is huge!!!

This weekend I will re-open my sketch competition. ( there are 3 more rounds, all with one week of time to complete).
I hope to see more of what u do. Valentine is coming up, so the sketches wil have more a love theme than christmas. Send your work to my e-mail adress pelleryk@online.no and I'll put it in here for a vote.

One of my goals this year for my scrappbooking, is to try to find places in forumes, just not in Norway to show what I do, but I have some problems finding the right place, u have any idea where I can go to post my works?

Then just one more thing to say, I wish u a happy new year. Lets make this a much better year than last year. And hopefully we can, in all our bloggs - by the end of the year show the first one - and the last one we made this year so that we all can see how much we have evolved..

Good luck on the sktech, I realy hope u take u the time and join for the 3 last rounds.
xxx Pelle
