Nytt kort - New card

Konfirmasjonskort til jente som eg laga for et par veker sidan.

Har tatt utgangspunkt i Tilda med rose, som er måla med distress inks - hovedsaklig milled lavender, dusty concord og walnut stain.

Har ellers brukt mønsterpapir fra Panduro (det lilla) og 7 gypsies (notepapiret), blomster fra papirloftet, perler fra Kaiser craft og kant punch (doily lace) fra Martha Stewart. "Til konfirmanten"-stempelet er fra Papirdesign.

Confirmation card for a girl with a Tilda stamp from Magnolia colored with distress inks, papers from Panduro and 7 gypsies, Martha Stewart punch, flowers from Papirloftet, Pearls from Kaiser craft and text stamp from Pairdesign.

SOUS September 17th - first designer week

Welcome to my first LO as a designer for SOUS (Stuck on U Sketches). It has been kind of a scary start for me, because I have hardly ever made a double page, and I honestly did not think I could do it, but I could (I even tink I will do it again) :)

The pictures tell the story of my daughters first bike (this weeks lesson in norwegian: sykkel=bike...LOL).  The bright pinkt patterned paper is Glitz, but the other one I do not know. Title is cut from cricut Hello Kitty font!

This cute little girl is a stamp from the swedish producer Hänglar & stänglar, and I have colored her with distress inks and water (I love stamping, and that is my prefered coloring technique).

Bike is cut with Cricut and Every Day Paper Dools. Cut an extra layer of pink to make some dimension and to make it look like DDs bike. Also adjusted it to be a more girly bike and added eyelets in the wheels.

Thank you for dropping by. I hope you will join us in this weeks challenge at SOUS and visit the other designers!

New friend - SOUS 20th of august

I am finally back in the game, and this time I actually made a layout with a picture of no other than myself. Not done that before I think! As always loved the sketch you had provided at SOUS.



I have used quite bold colours. I usually use soft colors, and I am not sure if I would ever come up with this color scheme if it wasn't for the parrot... But I thought that if he could pull it off, so can I!! Actually loved how it turned out.

Have used a patterned paper from MME, and blue flowers from my stash. Bling is prima I think, but not sure. The letters are thickers 
that I got in a LRS kit once, 
and hibiscuses are cut from Cricut Storybook.

Skissedilla #63 - blått blikk

Er ganske stolt av meg sjølv no, for dette er faktisk 3. LO på litt over ei veke. Slett ikkje verst. Har brukt skisse nr 63 hos Skissedilla. Peter Olai sine store blå øyne blir stadig vekk kommentert når han møter nye folk, så tenkte eg måtte lage en LO om desse.

Har prøvd meg på en litt meir rufsete stil enn eg vanligvis har. Ganske fornøyd med resultatet egentlig, men ser at min hang til symmetri skinner gjennom...hihihi.

Har brukt bølgepapp malt med Tim Holz crackle paint og distress ink, sammen med baksida av et mønsterark fra Kaiser scrapbook.

Hjertene er chipboard (fra skuffen min)  også mala med crackle paint:

Har ellers sydd i to av kantane med scrappers floss, brukt stiftemaskin, stempel fra Stempelglede - grunge collection, diverse knapper og perler fra Kaiser craft.

SOUS June 4th - sister and brother

Loved the clean and simple sketch this week, and even managed to resist putting more stash onto it :) Love these pictures of my two little sweeties from last november. Konstanse is so proud of her new little brother!

Have used a beautiful patterned paper from the swedish Maja design - my favourite these days. It is two sides of the same paper. All edges are torn (nail file) and then sawn on. Have also done some sewing around the edges (four rounds...).  Flowers are the Retro flower punches from EK success (small, medium, large):



Have also used lots and lots of my beloved Kaiser craft pearls:




Thank you for dropping by. Please leave a comment so I can visit you back!!

SOUS 28th of May - sketch by beggahuna - picking berries

Long time no see again - I have been crafting, but have not been around my computer very much, so have not done any posting... i am a terrible terrible blogger...

have once again joined the challenge at SOUS (I once had a new years resolution to do that every week, but so far I have not been very good - but that is kind of normal when it comes to new years resolutions though so not feeling that guilty).

Well... loved the sketch this week by Beggahua! Love the white spaces, and the multiple photo opportunities. Have once again digged deep in my library of pictures, with these cute photoes of Konstanse and her cousin picking blueberries in 2008. 

Have used papers and chipboard embellishments from Sassafrass (got them in an LRS kit ages ago - and finally found a suiting place for them). Love the little deer:

The blueberry "bush" is a cut from Storybook, cut as a border to make it longer. Title is once again Hello Kitty font Round feature - I love the simplicity of that font! the title by the way means "Small eager blueberry eaters"
