Paper Creations Ink GDT

Hi there!

Ok, finally here again. It's sooooooooooo busy at work and hardly had any free time last couple of days. I promised a candy, it will be here, tomorrow :) Few days later than planned, but hopefully you will love it...

But now... I was asked to be a Guest DT at the Paper Creations Ink blog *whoowhoo!!*
This time the challenge is "Buttons and bows", and well... Love them! :)

When I got this image to work with I just knew I had to use these papers and sentiment. I just think they're just perfect for this challenge.



Now... what are YOU waiting for?? Get creative and join me and the other members of the Paper Creations Ink blog. Would love to see your work overthere! :)

Thanks for coming over and see you later!

Magnolia Tilda Christmas Card 2011

Hi there and Happy Sunday!

It's not as hot as it was yesterday overhere, but it's still a nice temperature outside and inside my house.
Been working on some Christmascards and other things today and here's a card I like to show you I made with one of last year's Tilda Magnolia Christmas stamps. Really love this sweetie.
I will be using this one in my class at Christmastime to make a nice homedeco. The kids totally loved it last year (and so did my colleagues) and I'm sure the kids will love it this year as well.

So here you have it...



And a detailphoto...



Made this card with patterned papers I must have for over 4 years or so. I just looooove BasicGrey and I still love these papers. Perfect for Christmascards :)

So this is it. Thank you very much for coming over and hope to see you around later!

It's a great one (as usuall!), and this time it's time to celebrate! So what are you waiting for...there's just sooooo much in life to celebrate!

As I'm already in the Christmasmood with all my cards, I've made a Christmascard. It's become a real CAS one, sooooooo simple to make, within 5 minutes time! So just perfect for the last minute Christmascards.

Wags 'n Whiskers challenge: Anything but a card

Hi there!

It's time for another Wags'nWhiskers challenge, this time set by me. It's time to make "anything..... but a card" :)

And this is my project, a bookmark. I really needed one badly, so this challenge was the perfect one to make one and here you have it. Pulled out my Derwent's after a long time not seen on this blog (I just don't show everything I make) and colored on craft.





I used "Rhiannon" (you can buy her here or here) as my image. Just loooooooove those fairies!
Thank you very much for coming over!
Please visit the Wags'nWhiskers blog to see what the other DT-members have made (they are AMAZING!!!). I would love to invite you to play along and see what you do with this challenge.

See you later! :)

Right now I'd like to show you a Christmascard I've been making yesterday. Oh, I sure love those papers I used a lot! Just love red and green (they're my fave colors) and these are all Christmassy :)
Used a lovely Christmas Tilda as well, though you can easily adjust the image for a birthdaycard etc.
Made the card using a sketch I made over a week back and was my last one for the DWYT-blog.

CAS-style card

Hi there and Happy Sunny Sunday!

Wow! The sun has been shining overhere all day, and yes, that's something it hasn't done a lot the last couple of weeks.
Like to show you a card I made today for some CAS-challengeblogs. Totally love those style of cards a lot, but sometimes quite difficult to actually make one (inspiration got lost etc.).

But... here's a card made with distressinks. If you know a site where I can find some colors that match good, please tell me! Looking for it! :)

Anyways.. here's my card. First inked the background and afterwards I inked up one of my newest stamps. Love those flowers! :)



Thanks for coming over! :)
Hope to see you again soon ;)


This card will play in the following challenges:
- CAS-ual Fridays: Sketch (tried a new technique with layering stamps)
- Less Is More: One Layer Card
