Two or more designer papers over at Creatalicious Challenges

Morning and hello! Well maybe not morning really but lets pretend shouldn't we? It's time for a new challenge over at Creatalicious Challenges. The easy going theme is set to Two or more designer papers. Nice and easy I hope?

Prize  -  3 digi images

We are a small creative team writing and illustrating fantasy adventure and children's books. We love to draw fun and amusing characters, and are happy to offer them to you as digital stamps. We hope you like these digital images and they help make your creations bright, interesting and memorable!

We are sponsored by the lovely people over at Fabrica Fantasy from where I have used the fun image called Cheerful Crab. He comes in both coloured and outline versions, perfect if you are a bit short of time. Lots of fun to colour, a really happy little chap! I have used my winsor & Newton / Letraset markers to colour this one in. And yes some of the old Letraset markers still works. Fabby! I miss my trias, they were the best. Still have a few work but less and less now. :(

The crabby is paired up with a summer pad from Bo Bunny maybe? Anyway, the colours are smashing and it's a great paper pad that I have managed to use quite a bit during this summer period. I am very happy about that as I have VERY little space left. I cleared out a lot of my papers during the spring. Well, then came a sale at many places at once and well... Let's just say that I have a bit more now than before. Spending freez for everything except card stock and sticky stuff until after Christmas or so. And lets be honest, I don't think I need any stick stuff either. I need to use up, tons!


I used up some decorations again from my scrappy place by the bed. My cards are a bit more messy now than before and well I am ok with it at the moment. Because of my bad sleep I sometime make stuff and have no clue that I have done it the day after. A bit scary but it's how it is at the moment. Sometimes a good surprise sometimes not as good. 

Anyway, you have about two weeks to play along and I hope you will. Either you enter the Anything goes challenge or the Two designer papers or more. Now it's time to sleep. It's terrible hot and I have hardly no air as it feels. The promise about 33 degrees here tomorrow and I don't look forwar to it at all. Way too hot for me!

Love n hugs

Stripes and/or dots over at the Paper Shelter

Morning and hello!
Just a quick note to let you know we have a new challenge up for you all over at the Paper Shelter today. Theme is set to stripes and/or dots.

My card will be added later today hopefully as I had a bit of reconstruction to do the other day. My desk will now be a cat hotel for a little guy that has broken his leg. I will be taking care of him and hopefully make him feel well again soon. He will be having my desk as his roof as he has limited permission to move around for a while. Wish me luck in this adventure! I have had plenty of sick cats, but none with a broken leg before. A new one for me.

I will get my card up here later on today or the day after. We have a soccer game as well tomorrow for the youngest, busy busy time at the moment. :)

Love n hugs

Beautiful borders over at Passion for Promarkers

Morning and hello!
Hope you're having a good week so far. It's already time for a new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers. This week are we dealing with "Beautiful Borders" as our theme.

Bilden kan innehålla: 1 person, text
We are sponsored by The Paper Shelter which is offering 3 digis to one lucky winner. I am pretty sure you will find some digis that you will love in the shop.

I have used Viking Vacation once again. This time have I done the colouring by myself and it's one of my favourite image from the Paper Shelter. It's such joy to colour and the look of the viking gets really different depending on what colours you are using.


Sorry about my photo. I will try to replace it later on today. The computer is like an old chewing gum and it has taken forever just to get this post done.

This time have I used a more of a red theme. The colours are heavy and basic. It is matching up great with the paper pad from Bunny. I love that beachy paper pad even if it's a bit hard to use from time to time. It's kind of busy.

I have used to different borders for my card, one from fiskars, a real classic and then I have a newer one but I don't know what brand. Probably a no namer kind of... I have also used a few die cut stars and squines as decorations. All the splatters are white acrylic ink. It gives great splatters.

Well, I hope that you will come and join our challenge over at PFP this week. The theme is fun and easy to work with. You have both doodleling, punches, dies etc to work with for this theme. You have a whole week to work on your creation. Just remember that you have to use the fabby Winsor and Newton Markers to have a chance of winning the prize.

Love n hugs

Red and green over at Winter Wonderland

Morning and hello!
Another month has passed and it's time for a new challenge over at Winter Wonderland. We are already in June so it's time to really start thinking about those Christmas cards now. This month do we have a very simple theme of Red and Green. That simply means that we want to see both red and green on your creation. Other colours are also allowed of course, but red and green needs to be there.


We are sponsored by Dr Digis house of stamps this month. They have a great selection of fun and charming images that makes most people smile.

Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DoctorDigi

Prize for the winner is 2 digis of the winner's choice

I have used the fabby image called Surfin Santa and coloured with my Winsor & Newton / Letraset markers. The designer papers did I find in my stash, only used once or twice I think. I picked out some of the papers with tons of greens and a bit of red in them. My colouring is mainly based on reds so it balances the card colours.


For decorations have I used a border punch "note paper" and some home made enamle dots in white. Had to give the card som light. 

Anyway, I hope you take the chance to play along with us and make a few cards for your Christmas stash. It's nice and easy theme with the colours green and red.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Birthday Boy over at the Paper Shelter

Morning and hello!
Thanks for dropping by today. I am feeling like crap in this hot weather with tons of pain and headaches that come and goes. It's totally well in lack of better words bllrrrkkk. Still I have managed to make a card for the new challenge over at The Paper Shelter this week. We have the theme of Birthday boy. So let's celebrate the males in our life this week.


As always, we have a gift voucher up worth $30 when you play with the Paper Shelter brand. Playing with another brand gives you the chance of winning 3 digis of your choice. Nice and easy to play along, right? You can enter our challenges up to three times, but at least one of your creations needs to have a TPS image on it.

For my card have I used an older image called Viking Vacation as I love the image. It's kind of cute and fun at the same time. I have used the precoloured Viking and fussy cut him to fit my card, well kind of at least. Then I added a bunch of lovely palm trees that I cut with dies from Lawn Fawn. The sentiment is cut with a Marianne Die and says Congrats in swedish. A few glitter dots is also added to the mix as well as a huge amouth of glitter, sequines and other sparkling stuff inside the card. My fabby back ground isn't showing at all, which is kind of bad. I spent some time on that one. LoL


Anyway, it was great fun to make my card this time and I hope you take some time and do a card or two for our challenge. It's relaxing and you will enjoy your time. I am pretty sure of that. So come on and join us in our male/boy birthday celebrations over at the Paper Shelter this week.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Fur and/or feathers over at PFP

Morning and hello!
Time for a new challenge over at PFP today and this time do we play with the theme of Fur and/or feathers. A nice and charming challenge. There is really tons of images out there with animals/pets and birds so you really should have no trouble finding an image you like and come and play with us. 

We are sponsored by All dressed up and I have used their little cutie called Z is for Zebra. It is so sweet that I just had to play with it, even if it's not that much colouring on the image. My photo did get a bit light as well so it looks even more uncoloured than it is. 


I have used a bunch of left over papers from my scrapbooking papers. Stuff that was left over from a LO I did a week ago. I have also used a few die cut stars in light blue and orange. Enamle dots that I made way back in different colours, a piece of ribbon and a stripe of washitape to add the final zebra feel to the card. Some letterstickers and a sentiment sticker is also added to my creation.

Ingen fotobeskrivning tillgänglig.

One lucky winner have the chance to win two images from All dressed up. That is if you colour with the Winsor Newton markers or former known as Letraset markers.

Take good care and do something that makes you happy.

Love n hugs
Marie
