Happy Halloween!

Morning and hello!
This is my final Halloween card for this year. I have used a bunch of images from hÄnglar and Wings. This image comes from the set called Bus eller godis. I keep using the Echo Park paper pad called I love Halloween. 


This time have I have used tons of glitter glue on my card in black and orange. I have also used a bunch of Nuvo Drops in a lovely orange colour. Lots of layers is giving some interest to the card. And I must say that I love the image. 

Take care everyone and have a good day!

Love n hugs

Christmas Cheer 10-21

Morning and hello!
It's the end of the month again. This year has really passed by very quickly, hasn't it? As always when we come to an end of a month do I share some Christmas card inspiration. So here we go!

My image is from hÄnglar and Wings and is called Kramtomtar. The set comes with two large stamps and a few sentiments in English. The are wonderful to work with and has super quality. I am trying to use up some old paper pads and this one is from Papermaina and is called Home for Holidays if I remember correctly. I have used a border punch from Martha Stewart, two kinds of ribbons, some Nuvo drops and some red gemstone hearts from my stash. To finish the whole thing of did I use some silver glitter stickers to get some Christmas glimmer to the card.

Hope you like what you see and get some creative inspiration from my creation.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Morning and hello!
I am back again with a new Halloween card. And once again have I used an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The set is once again from Mummy and Frank.  This is Frank. I didn't go for the greenish colours for this one, but I have used it for some details in the clothes instead.


I have once again used the paper pad from Echo Park, I love Halloween. Hoping that I will be able to use it up, but that will not happen this year I think. I have started to feel a bit bored by the papers but I have put the pad to good use. For decorations have I used a paper punch, some gem stones finish the card up together with a piece of web ribbon. 

I wish you a good day and please do take some time to do something for yourself!

Morning and hello!
It's Tuesday and have a new little Halloween card to show you today. I fell in love with the new images from hÄnglar and Wings and this is from one of their new sets with masquerade / halloween images. This image is from the set called Mummy and Frank. I have a card made with Frank coming up later this week. I have had lots of fun playing with the fall / halloween images lately. It's kind of funny as I don't celebrate Halloween but I really enjoy making these cards. 
 

 I have used the same paper pad as last time. Echo Parks I love Halloween papers. For this card have I used a few dies to frame my image and tied a bow with some black satin ribbon. I have coloured with a mix of markers. I have finished the card with some Nuvo drops in the corners.

Take good care and do something that makes you happy!

Morning and hello!
It's time for a new card from my craft studio. I have spent a few days playing with some fall/halloween images from hÄnglar and Wings. This image is from the set called Bus eller godis. This is the witch from the set and on 31st of October will I show the second image from the set.


I have coloured with a mix of different markers and used the paper pad from Echo Park called I love Halloween. I have only used a a web ribbon and a satin ribbon for decorations for my creation. The patterns on the papers are quite busy so that is enough.

Have a lovely weekend and do something that makes you happy!

Use some dies or punches over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
It's Tuesday again and time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. It's my time to host the challenge and I have chosen the theme of Dies and or Punches. Hopefully will many of you play along with the challenge. 


I have dug out an old image from Sugar Nellie. I saw something that reminded me of these images a while ago and decided to dig them out from my stash. I have used two different dies from Magnolia and a rectangular die from PY Hobby. I have coloured with my Promarkers and on the dies have I used some glitter snow. I have also used it on the ground for Santa to stand on. My designer papers are from Maja Design and the paper pad Traditional Christmas from last year.

Well then, time to do some crafting. I wish you a good day and hope that you take some time to play along with us over at Passion for Promarkers. We are now open for all kind of markers. 

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Morning and hello!
Welcome back to my little corner of the world. Today I have another Magnolia card to share with you all. For once have I not used any markers or distress inks to colour my image. I have made a try with pencils instead. Really hard, but I guess that practise make perfect in the end. Not sure I have the patient for it to be honest.


I have made the design fairly simple and with just a few embellishments. The die to the left is from Magnolia  and the sentiment is cut with an alpha die set that I bought recently. It's perfect in size for adding sentiments to cards. Love that! You can never have too many alphas in your stash. :) Some golden gemstones from Honey Bee Stamps add to the details together with some glitter pen on the alphas and a bow to that as well. The designer papers are from Pebbles and is called Harvest.

Hope to have sent some inspiration your way!

Morning and hello!
Another image coloured with my distress inks, just like my last Just for fun card. This image is an old one from Stempelglade if I remember correctly. I have used it a few times before, but it was a long time ago now. It's one of those stamps that can be used over and over again. It looks different each time it's coloured.

I have used designer papers from Honey Bee Stamps called summer stems. It has wonderful colours and I totally adore this pad. Honey Bee stamps has some lovely pads that I really recommend. They have a good quality and the colours are wonderful. 

I used a simple design for this card as the image deserve to be the focal point. I have used a border die from Lawn Fawn, some lace from my stash and some golden Nuvo Drops from my stash. 

Take good care and do spend some time with your crafting supplies, you never know what you will create!

Morning and hello!
I have been playing with some old coloured images that I have saved from times when I have had colouring mania. It happens from time to time. On this image have I played with distress inks. It's fun to dig out some paint brushes from time to time. 


The image is a House mouse image that I have bought ages ago, just because I love the flower. The mouse is sweet as well and I have a little collection of the images but for some reason have I trouble using them. But finally I have a card made with one of them!

My designer papers are from a Pebbles and is called Harvest. Lovely autumn colours and a perfect match for this image. The card is simple and decorated with some twine, gemstones from Honey Bee Stamps and some Nuvo Drops as always these days.

Hope you find some inspiration from my creation and do take some time to create just for the fun of it!

So extra details are made with some dies, like the leaves and the lace border. Some Prima flowers, some buttons, a charm and some Nuvo drops finish the card.

Morning and hello!
Time for a new creation made just for the fun of it. I believe this is a Tiddly Ink image. I have had it both printed and coloured for quite a while. It was time to get creative with it. :)


 My image is coloured with promarkers and paired up with some designer papers from the paper pad called Coffee and Friends. It has lovely colours and was a great match to the colours I had used for the image. I have used some cut offs for this card. The border is made with a lawn fawn die, small borders I think it's called. I found a enamel heart in blue in my stash and then some Nuvo drops as finishing touch for the card.

Love n hugs
