a birthday card for a rockabilly chick..

2010-05-05T08:52:00.000-07:00

A friend of mine ordered this card, and as you might have guessed, im all about mixing challenges with my crafting..

So im putting this card up for these challenges..

My time to craft - Stars and swirls
Simon says stamp - Birthday/ celebrations
The three muse challenge - stars

My friend gave me very specific instructions on this card, but I do love a challenge..
The sentiment says:
" I didnt forget your birthday, I just didnt remember it on time.."
I thought that sentiment was appropriate, since my friend is two weeks behind giving this card.. HA HA!

Hope you like it..

Another criss-cross card.. totally in love with this fold. Thought id put this up for a challenge over at die cut dreams, called "Tilda in pink" The sentiment says: With all the best wishes for your day and the future.. well, thats like directly translated, im sure there is a better saying.. ha ha!

Hope you like it!

wedding time!

2010-04-26T02:08:00.000-07:00

A friend of my boyfriend is getting married and so I needed to make a card. (ooooh... what a drag.. ha ha)

They have been 2gether since they were kids, so thats why I chose the cute pic..

This is for a challenge and i know there is a touch of colour on the pic, but im still putting it up for the monochromatic over at "cards for men"

Hope you can see past the colours.. and that you like my card.. =)

pretty, girlie, girlie..

2010-04-26T01:23:00.000-07:00

I just love this stamp from whiff of joy, and though its an autumn stamp, I just couldnt resist it.. yes, i know its spring and that I should be making spring cards with bright fun colours, but this is what I ended up doing.. ha ha..

2010-04-13T01:51:00.000-07:00

I got this beautyful stamp in the mail and got my promarkers out in an instant! So much fun to colour these shorty´n´friends..

thought id put this card up for two challenges:

- sophisticats "so distressed"

hope you like it and have a wonderful sunny day!!

friday sketches
Charisma cards "something for the kids"

new day=)

2010-03-18T03:15:00.000-07:00

I love this cool car from bombshell stamps.. Ive coloured it with promarkers and rolled it through a cuttlebug..

Its a simple card, but i find that when i make cards for men, I kinda like them simple..

I thought id put this up for some challenges;

- Fussy and Fancy "green"
- Crafty catz "something for the boys"
- Stamp something "cream and green"
- cards for men "happy birthday" (gratulerer med dagen= happy birthday)

have a happy week! see you soon!

another challenge=)

2010-03-11T01:39:00.000-08:00

Right!
I had a lot of fun with this card, as I tried to incorparate a lot of different things..

First off, i needed to follow a sketch, given by whiff of joy, then i wanted to use newspaper in my piece, The three muses, i also needed some lace (Kort o mania) and lastly some frosting to enter Gingersnap as well..

so, yeah..
here is my entry, hope you like it!

good fun with challenges!

2010-03-08T05:18:00.001-08:00

another b-day card

2010-03-01T00:16:00.000-08:00

Endelig har jeg fått meg promarkers jeg og..
This is my first tryout with my new promarkers.. Great fun!
Im not going back to Le plume, thats for sure.. My mom is great with watercolour, im just mediocre, so this was just perfect for me!
the inside of the card is Le plume, the cute one on the front is promarker.. I say no more..

wax on, wax off!

2010-03-01T00:14:00.001-08:00

Beeswax mania!
really messy and fun!
Ive dipped pieces of paper into the hot wax and built up a layout i liked.
Painted with perfect pearls and stamped directly into the hot wax..

good fun..

Boy card..

2010-03-01T00:09:00.000-08:00

Really cool post it note from japan, which I stamped and crackled..

The background I made with distress ink in various teqnicues an doodling sum...

moms 60th b-day..

2010-03-01T00:06:00.001-08:00

A fun folding teqnicue..

I love my mum..

a little bit norwegian and a little bit english..

2010-03-01T00:00:00.000-08:00

Since im norwegian, but ive lived in London, it tends to be a bit confusing, when im supposed to write in english..
so pardon me if im rambling sometimes..

this is yet another x-mas card, I love these vintage photos from minnehjørnet, add a little bit of thick clear embossing and crackle it up, and they r perfect..

im putting in some of my X-mas cards..

I love these tags, with a matching envelope..
And apparently, so did my customers too.. =)
