Morning and hello!

Hi there! It's mid October and time for a new Christmas card from me. I had fun making this Christmas card in a different colour scheme than normal. It is Simple Stories that have made this playful, happy winter collection. 

 I have used a fabby image from hÄnglar and Wings. I think that it is from one of their advent calendars. It's such wonderful joy to open the calendar every advent Sunday in December.

I have played with some old stash like the wooden snowflakes, paper flowers, lace and pearls. It's great to get back to where I started a long time ago. I used to use my paper roses on every single card I made in the beginning and now is it not that often, but it happens when I have managed to carry down some roses to the basement and my bed where I mainly make my cards. Yes I know it's crazy to craft in bed but that is who I am.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Mini Monday card

Morning and hello!

Hi there! I am here to show a little card that I made with some left over piece from my old stash!

The left overs are (probably) from a Me to You paper pad from way back in time. The butterfly is from Magnolia, Sweden and the pearls from my stash. The dies are from my stash as well, but are not used very often. But it's the first for everything. It's wonderful to be able to use up old stuff from my stash. These little mini cards are a great way to use them up. The card size is 10 cm square. Perfect to add into a little letter or in a bouquet of flowers.

Hope  you enjoy my little creation!

Just for fun 15-24

Morning and hello!

Hi there! I am back again with a card made with a stamp from hÄnglar and Wings. Isn't he cute? 

Morning and hello!

Hi I am here again with a card made with my hÄnglar and Wing's image called Trädgårdspåtare. It's fun and cheerful stamp set that is lovely. It's such a fabby stamp set and fun to work with. 

 I have used a lovely rectangular die for the image and the designer papers are from Simple stories once again. There is such lovely designs in Simple Stories designer papers. And the quality of the papers! Just WoW!

I have used some perfectly matched fabric flowers from my stash. It's not often there is such good colour match. Some paper flowers to that and a sentiment from hÄnglar and Wings as well. Some white Nuvo drops is also used to finish off the card with some structure. Such fun card to make!

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Anything but square over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

Hi crafty friends! It's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This time is our theme set to Anything that square. Time to think about some new shapes of our cards. I for one is almost every time making square cards. I am to lazy to dig out my dies to create my cards. This time have I dug out my circle dies and had fun playing with them.

Our fabby sponsor this week is none other than Lili of the Valley that offer one lucky winner 4 digital stamps of winner's choice.

I have used the cutie called Snow Cute that is/was a pleasure to colour. It was possible even if my fingers are stiff like ice cubes. It was a long time since they where working like I want them too. But as long as I can do most of the things that I want to I am ok. It's just a "tiny" bit harder some days. 

I have used a paper pad from Simple Stories. It's my favourite brand at the moment. Well it have been for quite some time now. I do just not remember the name of it. I have used some Christmas red roses and white ones as well. A rectangular die for the center piece on my easel card. A polka dotted sheer ribbon ad a finishing touch for this creation. A bit over board with the flowers but It was fun going back to the old stuff and designs. 

I hope that you will play along with us over at PFM this week and take some time to make a card in another shape than you normally do. It's a fun challenge to play along with. 

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Christmas Cheers 11-24

Morning and hello!

I have been creative again! Wohoo! It feels so good to be able to create, and that I have had some coloured images to play with. That have made it possible for me to make a card even if I can't colour. 

My card is a bit different when it comes to colours for Christmas and I just love it! The designer papers are from Simple Stories if I remember correctly and I love just about everything that Simple Stories makes. 

I have used a bunch of different die cuts in the shape of boarder dies, a frame, some snowflakes and to that have I added some pearls in different colours. Just a happy card for my Christmas collection.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
