Just for fun 19

Morning and hello!
Time for a new card from my Just for fun-stash. This is a card I made playing around with my stash. Wish I had played more with my camera as well. It's hard to get a good shot from time to time, at least when the contrast is so big between my die and the rest of the card. 


The image is stamped with Altenew stamps and cut with dies. The Thanks is also a die from the same compay. The back ground is made with Distress Oxide inks and some water. A few black pearls finish my card off. A fun play with some new products which led to buying way too many ink pads in different colours. 

Thank you for watching! See you around!

Love n hugs

Just for fun 18

Morning and hello!
I am back again with a card made just for fun. I made this card quite a while back when I had an order of many cards for males. 


This one is made with Maja Design papers and topper as well. A simple cut and glue card that is so relaxing to make from time to time. I should start using all the images I have laying around that I have coloured when I couldn't sleep as well to get some more cards done. I have no extra details on this card, just the inked edges for all the designer papers and the topper, and of corse the corrogated cardboard.

Hope you like what you see!
Take care and do something you enjoy!

Love n hugs

Anything goes over at The Paper Shelter

Morning and hello!
It's time for our yearly summer break challenge over at the Paper Shelter. It means that the team has some time off and you will get no comment for this challenge but the same lovely prize is up as always. We have the theme set to "Anything goes" so you can make what ever your mind is set to. Nice isn't, just crafting away?

For my card have I used the fun and charming image called Summertime, Retro Style. It is nice image to work with, just a little more details than I normally choose to work with on this one. But it will be easier now when I got my long needed glasses. But for this one have I not used them. 


I have coloured with my normal promarkers and used a new paper pad from Echo park called summer something. I never remember to write down what I am using. For decoration have I used a bunch of die cut hearts in black and a web ribbon in gold. I have also cut my frame a bit broader than I normally do just for a change of the look.

I hope you come and play with us over at the Shelter for this challenge and have fun playing along!

Love n hugs

Bingo Board over at Passion for Promarkers

Morning and hello!
It's time for a new challenge over at Passion For Promarkers and this week are we playing bingo. Lisa has made us a nice and fun bingo board to play with. 


Our sponsor this week is the lovely JMC Designs that offers one lucky winner 1 digital collection of their choice. 


For my card this week have I used a flower collection by Carta Bella I think. I have two different ones and they are simular. At the moment is my head not working as good as it should. Tired and headaches leads to failing memory.

Anyway, I have used the diagonal starting in the left corner for this card. Ribbon, image and flowers. Sorry that it shows the glue isn't totally dry when I took the photo. I have used two ribbons; one web one and one sheer ribbon. The flowers are really old ones from Prima that just popped up when I opened a cabinette to finish the card. The card has been done for ages, just have been putting the last part in front of me for ages... The flower centers are dew drops from my stash. 

Take good care everyone and do come and play with us. Don't forget to use your promarkers to have a chance of winning the prize.

Love n hugs
Marie

Just for Fun 17

Morning and hello!
I have been creationg again during night. This time have I made a card with a lovely stamp from hÄnglar and Inks called Lovebug. This one has been in my stash for a long time and now have I kind of rediscovered this brand which has a sligthly new name than before. Do drop by their webside and have look for yourself. Tons of fun and charming images for you to enjoy. 


The designer papers are from an Australian company called Cocoa Vanilla Studio. You find them both as digital prints and as printed designer papers. But digital is by far faster to get a hold of them. I love the brilliant colours in them and they have some smashing dp's for boys as well. It's wonderful stuff.

Well then, have a great day and do something you enjoy!

Love n hugs

Morning and hello! 
It's Wednesday and time for our new challenge over at the Paper Shelter. This week are we looking to see what you can make with the theme "occupation/profession". So what are you all working as?

For my card have I used the fabby image called Real life Superhero. The doc is coloured with Promarkers and I have kept the card in blue and grey. The designer papers are a mix of left overs from Cocoa Vanilla Studio and brand I can't remember at the moment. Just as always. LoL My brain is so tired all the time and my pain don't want to give in. A bit of a struggle but others has it worse than me. But I for sure could use a real life superhero... Last time my doctor appologized for not being able to do more for me. Honest at least, even if it doesn't help.


Anyway I hope that you will play along with us for this challenge and take the chance to win some lovely digis of your choise. Always at least three up for grabs. Playing with our brand gives you the chance to vin a gift voucher worth $30 in the TPS store.

Take care every one and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs,

Just for fun 16


Morning and hello! 
I'ts time for a new card for "just for fun". This particualar one is a card where I have used an bunch of small left over pieces of designer papers to fill some empty spot in a diecut from maybe... my favourite things. Then I have glued a huge congrats on black all over the card. A nice and simple one.

For some extra details have I added some enamel stars in different colours. A nice and relaxing card to make while you are waiting for your photos to upload to Lightroom...


I hope that you like this one. And I hope that you take some time to do something your really enjoy. Life gets so much easier when you have something around you that you really love. Life will get really much better,

Take good care and do be creative or whatever you feel like,

Love n hugs

Use orange over at Passion For Promarkers

Morning and hello!
Hope you are doing well and have a good week. Mine started with headache but hopefully it will be gone in a day or two. 

It's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers and this week we want to see orange on your creations. Well let's say the team has gone crazy for Julies theme. If you was not awake before seing the PFP blogpost, you for sure must be now. :)

Our sponsor for this challenge is Colour of Love Digis who offer one lucky winner 3 digi images of her/his choise.


For my card this week have I used a lovely one from Hänglar and Ink. It's a newold love of mine which is on the go again. The image is called Elvira and you find her here. She is of course coloured with Promarkers as our challenge is about that. Sadly it bled a bit for me this time and well no time to recolour. Or time is here but my body is not. The butterflies came with a scrapbooking kit about a year ago. Can be Pink Fresh Studio or something like that. The designer papers might be MFT. The center border piece is Pink fresh for sure.

Anyway, beside my bed do I have a pile with designer papers and stuff you would need for scrapbooking. And on top this time was some dp's in happy clear colours, so those was used for this card. The only thing that I don't like is that the papers are thin and really doesn't like glue. So time to fill up with some tape downstairs again. 

Anyway, take good care and do something you love.

Love n hugs
Marie

Just for fun 15

Morning and hello!
Another one, just for the fun of it from me. And this was really a blast from the past. Colouring with distress inks. I don't do that very often but when I really start it, I always wonder why I don't do it more often. Maybe now when I have some extra days off. It was so good to hear that I don't have to prepare tons of catalogs for shows during the summer. Thank you Covid for that! Finally something good with it. I might even be able to enjoy my vacation this year, or I lose my job, either one will be fine with me.

Ok, that was not why you dropped by for today. I have used an old Tida from Magnolia Sweden. Then there is a cheerful paper pad wich I really don't have a clue about where and what I have found it. It's probably from Poland. The little more colourful and cool paper pads is mainly from that part of the year. I like them, they are a bit odd and make me happy! I have done quite a lot of fussy  cutting to get some lovely detais for my card. I find this card kind of charming. I really like it. 

Anyway, I hope you like this happy card of mine. Take the chance to inspired and start creationg something of your own, you might even find some great old stamps or papers that you have not used in ages!

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love and hugs
Marie

Use a sentiment over at The Paper Shelter

Morning and hello!
Midweek again! Time really flies by quickly doesn't? Anyway, we have a new challenge up for you over at the Paper Shelter and this weeks theme is set to "Use a sentiment". Nice and easy I hope?

Of corse as it is a Paper Shelter challenge have I used one of the fabby images from the company called Work out time. I really should be doing some working out myself but at the moment I have to be happy about me getting to work twice per week. One day I will get back on track again, I promise you that. At least I use my MTB to and from my work. 


The designer paper I have used for this card is from Cocoa Vanilla studio if I remember everything right. I bought tons of paper and die cuts from them even if they  are hard to get here to use in my boys photo albums. Some smaller pieces ended up here and even a die cut for my sentiment. The image is coloured with my promarkers. I have also used a bunch of stars as decoration because in my mind are you not working hard enough if you don't see stars when lifting weights. LoL



You can play along with our challenge up to three times, and one of these do you have to use a Paper Shelter image. However, you always have the chance to win over at our challenge. Playing with another brand gives you the chance to win three digis of your choise. Playing with our challenge gives you the chance of winning a gift voucher worth $30.

Take care and keep crafting!

Love n hugs
Marie
