A weddingcard using Tilda with Love Rice

Hi everyone!!!

Well it's time for some more cards I think ;o)

My friend, Jónína, also asked me to make a weddingcard for her, she is attending a wedding in June and needed a card.

Well, I don't have any weddingstamps so I had a little problem on my hands. I checked out Papirloftet, a Norwegian online Scrapbookingstore, but they didn't have anything that I liked. So... I desided to go with the Magnolia stamp "Tilda with Love Rice" and it really came out quite well, I think!

The papers are from Bazzill and The Paper Company. Flowers are from Prima and the roses are from Papirloftet. I also used the Flower lace punch from Martha Stewart. I don't know where the charm is from, sorry. Tilda is coloured with waterpencils (but Copics are on my wishlist, that's for sure!). I also added Stickles glitter to the roses, Tilda's bow, apron, shoes, hearts in the basket and to the hearts she is throwing in the air.

Here is a close-up of the Stickles glitter, I overdoesed it with glitter!!! Wedding is all about the glitter, right???

Here is a close-up of the roses in the bottom right corner. They got some Stickles glitter as well.

Here we have a close-up of the flower/rose combination, charm and the "weddingday" stamp that has 3D cutions under.

Here we have more of a closup of the flower/rose combination and the charm. The rose has a Stickles glitter. I made a bow to fasten the charm in and glued it on.

Well, that's it for tonight.

Now, I'm just gonna lay back and relax. I've been over my head in the kitchen the last two days baking for my 30th birthday, that's TOMORROW!!!

I feel like I'm turning old... :o/

Graduation card, blog hop and a sketch from Friday Sketchers!!!

Hello everyone!!!
Well, here I am with my newest card :D
This one is made for my oldest and dearest friend of all, Jónína.
Her brother is gratuating soon as a carpenter (not finished with the workpart though, only school) and she asked me to make a card for him.
This card is made with the Friday Skechers sketch 101
That sketch was designed my dear Jacque and of course I had to participate!!!
This is a Magnolia image, Edwin with a balloon, papers are from Bazzill, Shabby princess and DCWV.
I also used my new Nestabilities classic oval circle and classic scalloped circle. I gave myself those two Nestabilities sets as a birthday present because I'm turning 30 on Sunday, May 16th!!! :O

Since the boy is graduating as a carpenter, I wanted to have some screws on the card because I felt it needed a connection to his gratuation. I tried to find a Magnolia Edwin which had a hammer in his hand, but didn't find one... So, this was the best thing I could do. The screws are from Tim Holtz (the small ones) and I think the large ones are from Making Memories.

Here is a close-up of the Nestabilities and Edwin. I desided to follow my favorite cardmakers advise, Jacque, to round the edges of the image a little bit for a dimension. This became so cute!!! I surely recommend it to anyone :D




The layer under the image and the Nestabilities are on 3D cusions for more dimensions.

I hope you liked my card. And I would love a comment or two and some more followers ;o)

Some brand new cards :)

Hello everyone!!!

Hope you all had a great Easter last week, at least I did ;)

Here in southern Norway the weather today was just fantasic but I spent most of the day inside though, since I woke up last night with sore throat, cold, headache and coughing :o/

I did NOT find that amusing :@

Well, I've done some cards since last time and I'm actually kinda proud of them. They turned out really well I think. All the stamps are from Magnolia, the punches (both the butterfly and the borderpunch) are from Martha Stewart (my hubby gave them to me for christmas!!!), the papers are from Bazzill, Fancy Pants, Basic Grey and some others that I can't remember the names of (I know, I'm bad with names).

For the first two cards I used the sketch from last week over at Friday Sketchers #96 but I forgot to put them on the Internet before the due date.

Those 3 cards that are here below are made by Terry over at Sketch Saturday. Here is the link to their blog. I just loved the sketch and I'm pretty sure I'll use it again soon!!! It was just sooo much fun to work with :)

All those cards qualifyes for the Just Magnolia challenge this week, which is "punch it out", so I'll be entering them there as well.

Well, now I have get to the kitchen!!! It's my daugther's 6th birthday tomorrow and I have to decorate the cake!!! Have a nice weekend everyone.

A new card!!!

Hi again!
Yes, when I finally got around to do some cardmaking, I sure managed to do more than just one!!!
This one was supposed to be for a spring-challenge, but I didn't finish it in time... But here goes anyway. It doesn't show, but there is Stickles on the apron and the broom.

BasicGrey Challenges

Hiya!

Well, I did more cards this weekend.

Those two are for the Basic Grey Challenge and the deal was to use this photo as an inspiration for the card. This is what I came up with.

I also used this sketch over at Mojo Monday blog and I find it just perfect for babycards!!!

Here are my cards:

Mother and daughter cardmaking time!!!

Hi everyone!!!

Well, finally I manage to get my ass going and make some cards!!!

Last Saturday me and my little girl (who is turning 6 years in just few weeks!!!) sat down and did some cardmaking!!! We used the sketch over at Midnight Madness Challenge Blog and we had sooo much fun!!! What a great idea to have two different verisons of the same sketch :D

Just perfect for mothers and daughers (or sons) to have some quality time together and do some cardmaking. At least, we had a blast ;o)

Here are our cards...

Ástrós Erla's card:

My card:
I didn't help Ástrós Erla very much. She chose the papers, flowers, ribbon and the image all by herself. She also did all the colouring herself. I only helped her glueing everything together and fixed the image a little bit for her (she asked me to) where her colouring had gone a little bit out of hand ;)
