I made a gift bag using the beautiful Mermaid Lisa by Rubber Romance from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design. Colored with Prismacolor pencils, added lots of stickles on the image and on the die cut stars too, used a gold shimmering gelly roll pen on her hair, but it doesn't show on the picture...


Jeg har laget en gavepose med den nydelige Mermaid Lisa av Rubber Romance fra Susana's Custom Art & Card Design. Fargelagt med Prismacolor blyanter, har lagt på masse stickles på havfruen og de utstansede stjernene, har brukt en gull-glitrende gelly roll pen på håret hennes, men det vises ikke på bildet...



Used a fun detail from the DP on the back of the bag, nice fish! =0)

Brukte en artig detalj fra mønsterpapiret på baksiden av posen,

I tried my new Spellbinder Nestabilites, Curved rectangles from Susana's shop for the first time, they are great! Flowers by Petaloo, and Mulberry roses, punched butterflies and ferns.

Til Emil ~ For Emil

Min yngste sønn Isak skal i bursdagsselskap til en venn i helga,
Emil blir 4 år.
Isak 'bestilte' da et kort, det skulle være med en sau, en gutt og en fugl. Vel, det var jo kjempebra, for jeg har noen kjempesøte nye stempelsett fra Nellie Snellen, de heter Ollie's, perfekte til dette kortet! =0)

♥ ♥ ♥

My youngest son Isak is going to a friend's birthday party this weekend, Emil turns 4.
Isak then 'ordered' a card, there should be a sheep, a boy and a bird on it. Well, that was great, because I have these oh so cute new stamp sets from Nellie Snellen, they're called Ollie's, perfect for this card! =0)

Blomster til deg ♥ Flowers for You

Try it out Tuesday #8 ~ Julia with Flowers

Klikk for større bilde ~ Click to enlarge

The DT-challenge this week was to make a card using Susana's own line of stamps as charms on our projects. I used the Olive Vase, and the main image is Julia with Flowers from Anki's Sweethearts for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design, only - I cut off her flowers and 'arranged' them in the vase! =0) The line holding the charm is Scarpper's Floss (from Susana's shop) - it's originally white, I 'ran' it across a blue fluid chalk ink pad - and now it's blue. *LOL*
Colored the images with Prismacolor pencils, the flower stamp is by Rubber Stampede, the sentiment is unknown. Julia and the vase charm are on pop dots.

To see the wonderful cards the DT-girls made, go to the store blog: Follow Your Heart

♥ ♥ ♥

DT-utfordringen denne uken var å lage et kort med Susanas egne stempler som charms. Jeg brukte stemplet Olive Vase, og hovedmotivet er Julia with Flowers fra Anki's Sweethearts for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design, bare at jeg klippet av blomstene og satte dem i vasen! =0) Tråden som charms'en henger etter er Scrapper's Floss (fra Susanas shop), den er egentlig hvit, men jeg dro den noen ganger over ei fluid chalk stempelpute, og nå er den blå! *LOL*
Fargela motivene med Prismacolor blyanter, blomsterstemplet er fra Rubber Stampede, tekststemplet er av ukjent opprinnelse. Julia og vasen er på pop dots.

Jeg har det så moro med disse søte digi stemplene fra The Greeting Farm!
Har prøvd noe som jeg leste om i en eller annen blogg, nemlig å ha blekk på selve spellbinder dies'en før jeg kjørte det hele gjennom Cuttlebuggen, og det virket jo som bare det! =0)
Fargela motivet med Prismacolor blyanter. Brukte en tag die fra QuicKutz til å lage blomsterbladene.

♥ ♥ ♥

I'm having so much fun with these cute digi stamps by The Greeting Farm!
I tried out something that I read in a blog somewhere, to ink up the spellbinder die before running the whole thing through the Cuttlebug, it worked like a charm! =0)
I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils. Used a tag die by QuicKutz for the petals.
The tiny sentiment says: for you

Klem ♥ Hug

Dorothy Anya fra The Greeting Farm igjen, og ProMarkers og Prismacolor igjen. Tekststempel fra Aud Design.

Borrowed the idea for the placement of the ribbon from the creative Marianne.

Friday Sketchers # 41

Made a card for the Friday Sketchers this week also. I used the cool Isac with Skateboard from Anki's Sweethearts for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design.
It's kind of hard not to put loads of embellies on a card, but I try to keep it to a minimum on boy's and men's cards, I think they like the 'minimalistic style' rather than the busy one... (I may be wrong!) Colored with Prismacolor pencils, clear alpha stamps by Stampendous.

♥ ♥ ♥

Har laget et kort til Friday Sketchers denne uken også. Har brukt den kule Isac with Skateboard fra Anki's Sweethearts for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design.
Det er litt vanskelig å ikke dynge på masse pynt på kortene, men jeg prøver å holde meg på et minimum når det er gutte- eller herrekort, jeg tror de liker den 'minimalistske stilen' fremfor den mer overdådige... (Jeg kan ta feil!) Fargelagt med Prismacolor blyanter, clear alfabet stempler fra Stampendous.
