Mini Monday, for the love of small cards

 Morning and hello! 
Happy new Monday to you! I am starting the week with one of the most loved things in my life, snowmen! Yep, I know we're at the end of March and I keep moving on with my winter cards. It is so much fun to make winter and Christmas cards. My favourite things in paper crafting. This image is as most of the time when I make things with my stamps, an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The size of the card is an A7.


I believe this sweet heat was a freebee with one of the first advent calendars hÄnglar and Wings did. I have used this sweetie fairly often for my creations to my pen pals. I can be variated in colours and look totally different that way, I have also used some left overs from scrap papers drawer. It is always wonderful to use something up instead of throwing it away.

Have a great week!

Love n hugs

Flower Friday for the first time this year!

Morning and hello all crafting friends!
Hope you had a good week and will have an even better weekend coming your way! Today do I have a card with flowers to show you. First time this year and I am so happy to be able to show it to you. 


I believe the image is from Power Poppy, but I am not totally sure. What I am sure of is that the image is stunning and I love it. I had a bit of a trouble finding a good mix of pink markers. If you have any tip any at all of a good looking pink combo, feel free to share it with me. 

The designer papers are from Maja Design and the paper pad called Mum's garden. It's an amazing set of designer papers in pink, green and some lilac to that as well. I have enjoyed making this card. The Numbers are from a set of dies from my stash. Nice and elegant, don't you think? Paper flowers is from my stash and the boarder die is a very old one from Martha Stewart that I still love using from time to time.

Hope I have given you some inspiration to spend a little time crafting today!

Love n hugs

Another Mini Monday

Morning and hello!
Here comes another one of my tiny cards that I have created with left over scrap paper and smaller stamps. It is a labour of love making these small cards. And they make me feel good about using up stuff from my stash!


 This image is a smaller version of Snögubbar, the original size are still available but not this mini version. hänglar and Wings have an amazing collection of snow men in their store. Go visit them and you will be spoiled with an amazing collection of our snowy friends. My designer papers are from an Echo Park paper pad.

Have fun creating!

Love n hugs

Dies and / or punches over at Passion for markers

Morning and hello!
How are you doing? Hope you're having a good week so far. It's Tuesday again and time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. Our theme this week is set to "Dies and / or punches". An easy and fun theme, kind of a favourite here at PFM.


This week are we sponsored by the lovely peeps over at Dr Digis house of stamps. They offer one lucky winner 2 (two) digital images of winners choice. Thank you for that!


 I have used of Dr Digi lovely and charming images. I don't have any energy for searching for the name of it right now. But you will find it in their store. I have had this one coloured for a long time. I have matched the old chap with designer papers from Studio Light and the paper pad is called Denim Saturdays. As our theme is dies and or punches have I used an unused die from Rox Stamps here in Sweden. I bought it ages ago for a project I had going on but at that point did I end up using the real deal for the gears. However for this card was they perfect! I also had fun using my Spectrum Noir metallic markers. I used a few colours on each gear to give them a kind of messed up look. Love how they turned out. 

Hope you can find a little inspiration from my card and come and play with us over at PFM. We are looking forward to see your charming creations!

Love n hugs

Christmas Cheers 2-25

Morning and hello!
Hi there, how are you? Hope everything is going well for you and you are up for a little bit of inspiration from my side of the world. 

I have used one of my beloved hÄnglar and Wing stamps. This one is from the set called Konstflyg. Isn't she charming? I love this stamp set, almost as much as I love all the lovely snow men from hÄnglar and Wings stamps. 



I was in the mood for some odd Christmas colours and here it is. The designer papers are from Simple Stories. It's a fun and charming paper pad, all going in pink and petrol and grey. It's playful and fun and makes me happy! I have not used much extra on this card as the designer papers are pretty busy. Some gemstones and a wood shaped angel is all that I had added to the mix. 

Hope you find some inspiration from my little creation!
Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
Marie
