Try It Out Tuesday #22 ~ Father's Day

♥

For this week's TIOT challenge we were to make a card and a gift for fathers day. With this I finished my 'work' early this year, since we in Norway celebrate Father's Day in November.

I've used an owl and a sentiment by Pink Cat Studio from SCACD, colored with Prismacolor pencils to make a card and a bookmark. The sentiment on the ribbon tag is by Aud Design. Added heart shaped buttons, ribbons and Kaisercraft Rhinestones. Made good use of my beloved Nestabilities dies too. I cut the letters using Tadpole Alpha by CuttleKids.

On the company blog Follow Your Heart you can see all the wonderful cards and creations by the rest of the DT ladies!

Come and visit the DT blogs tomorrow and on Thursday, there will be sneak peeks of the new wonderful stamps Anki's Sweethearts Series 2 that will be available on SCACD Friday 12th!

It's so nice to make a card again, long time with no creative 'outbursts' - I feel I really need them!
This lovely image is called Singing in the Rain from
Victoria Case for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design, the Hearts and Hugs Collection. I love these girls Victoria Case designed for Susana, can't get enough of them, love that I can color their eyes too! The sentiment is also by SCACD, you can find the whole set of
Susanaments here. I've used Petaloo flowers.

Try It Out Tuesday #21 ~ Pool Party!

♥

A new Tuesday and a new challenge, a summery party invitation. I felt like throwing a pool party, so here's what I came up with. The cutie is Lily by Pink Cat Studio from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design colored with Prismacolor pencils. I made the ball from a circle die cut. The glittery flowers are Petaloo Dazzlers. The pink letters are Cuttlebug Harmony alphabet, and the stamped letters are magnetic stamp alphabet by Making Memories, Rummage.

This week we were to use flowers on our cards for the DT challenge, like flowers in the image, on the papers and our embellishments. I picked an image with lots of flowers, it's called Tea for Two from Victoria Case for SCACD, Hearts and Hugs collection, fantastic new stamp designs, they are so much fun to work with!
The sentiment is also from SCACD, see them here: Susanaments. The flowers I've used on my card are from Susana's, (except the tiny yellow roses.) I had to put some Kaisercraft Rhinestones on my card, like I do on almost every card I make these days! ☺

Cute Card Thursday Challenge ~ Letters/Numbers

♥

Here's my entry for the 60th challenge at the Cute Card Thursday challenge blog, we were to use letters or numbers on our cards.
I'm so thrilled about these beautiful new stamps from SCACD, the Hearts and Hugs Collection, I loved to use this cute stamp called Just Because on my card, colored with my Prismacolors. The green glittery flower is a new kind that comes with a rhinestone in the middle, they're called Petaloo Dazzlers, cute!
Here's a confession; I've grown addicted to the Kaisercraft Rhinestones, so I had to put some of them on my card...
I painted Shimmerz on the sweet fairy's wings and on the letters, but it doesn't show well on the pictures. I cut the letters using Tadpole Alpha by CuttleKids.

Don't you just love these little darlings? This image is called Nuts for You. Had to go with my favorite color combo, and I just love to color the eyes on the images I use on my cards, this cutie pie has got green eyes. I colored with Prismacolor pencils. The sentiment is also brand new, it's one of ten and they are called Susanaments, they go very well with the images in this fabulous stamp collection.

♥

♥

To embellish my card I used flowers by Petaloo and Prima, heart shaped buttons, beaded pins, rhinestones, ribbon and Scrappers Floss. I cut the Susanament out with a QuicKutz cookie cutter die, and cut the image with a Nestabilitie die.

Ugle-kort ~ Owl card

Click to enlarge ~ Klikk for større bilde

♥

Dette er et kort som jeg har hatt inni hodet lenge. Jeg kjøpte disse klesklypene rett før jul, og ville bruke en som en slags gren til en ugle. Så fikk jeg meg dette søte uglestemplet fra The Greeting Farm, og endelig fikk jeg litt tid til å pusle kortet sammen. Har fargelagt med ProMarkers og Prismacolor. Blader er QuicKutz, har brukt diverse puncher, swirl fra BossKut, blomster fra Petaloo, Nestabilities dies, rhinestones, bånd, Scrapper's Floss.

This is a card I've had in my head for some time now. I bought these clothes pins just before Christmas, and pictured them as sort of a branch for an owl. (We don't use this kind of clothes pins in Norway, so I had to order them from the US.) Then I got my self this cute owl stamp from The Greeting Farm, and finally I had some time to puzzle the card together. I colored with ProMarkers and Prismacolors. Leaves are by QuicKutz, used various punches, swirl is by BossKut, flowers by Petaloo, Nestabilities dies, rhinestones, ribbons, Scrapper's Floss.

Try it out Tuesday #17 Mother's Day

Tuesday and a new DT challenge at SCACD, a gift set for Mother's Day.
I went out of my comfort zone on this one, usually I stick to the 6"x6" size, but I've been meaning to try to make an envelope card for some time now. I found this great tutorial at Bodil's blog, I just had to give it a try.
Along with the card I got a jar from IKEA, decorated it and filled it with jelly beans. Don't know if it would suit a mom, probably the kids bringing the jar would get to eat most of the beans...
I used the cute Polka Dot Butterfly by Lockhart Stamp Company from Susana's, colored with Pro Markers. Used Scrapper's Floss for antennas, and Glitter Dots in the center of the flowers.
Printed the sentiment from my computer, cut it out with Nestabilities dies.


On the company blog Follow Your Heart you can see all the wonderful cards and creations by the rest of the DT ladies!

I just put a small note inside to show how it would look like:

Thinking of You

Finally a new card from me! I've been spending so much time at work lately, also this weekend, that my card making is suffering... Thanks to all of you great people stopping by my blog, even if the cards sometimes are few and far between.

On this card I inked up the lovely Julia by Rubber Romance from Susana's Custom Art & Card Design for the first time. She looks so relaxed and beautiful with her book and tea, don't you think? The sentiment is by Whipper Snapper. The Bella Baubles from Susana's are fabulous to use in the flower centers.
