Mini Monday 10-24

Morning and hello!

Hi again! Yes I know, third Monday in a row. Here is yet another one of my small stitched cards that I have made during dull days. Once again have I gone for the blue and silver colour shades. It is such wonderful combo that makes me happy to work with. 

This time have I used a blue card base for my darker bulb with blue and silver. Some more of my old silver stickers with small snowflakes. Lovely glittery card for the big Christmas season!

Love n hugs

Just for fun 12-24

Morning and hello!

I am back again with a card made with my old stash. I have dug out a Kenny K image that I have had in my stash for ever and still love to bits. It's a great image that is different from many other cute stamps that is so popular. 

I have also used some old designer papers. Earlier this year I had finished it off, but I had forgotten that I had one more. I love this black and white paper pad with red details so I am very happy that I had one more. I have used some red card stock instead of white for this card. It was fun to use that for a change. I have used some nuvo drops for some small details. Hope you like my little creation! Do take some time and use your old stash! It's fun to rediscover your old stash, if will feel as new! LoL

Christmas Cheers 10-24

Morning and hello!

I am back again with a Christmas card! It was a while since I managed to make anything at all. Have just spent time with my kumi Himo disks and plates lately. It was been a good way to spend restless time and easy to break from when the pain hits hard which it has the last month. I just don't like moist weather and my joints enjoy it even less than I do. Hopefully will the weather be a bit more stable for a while now and I can get some rest from my hard pain. It's 10 times worst when the weather is moist and change from warm to cold or the other way around. 

For my card today have I used a hÄnglar and Wings image from a few years back. I have also used a piece of another stamp from the same company, the sentiment is also from hÄnglar and Wings. Some ribbon is used to break up all the bright colours and some paper roses, a charm, some buttons and a few die cuts together with some nuvo glitter drops. It was fun to make this card and I hope that I  will be able to make a few more Christmas cards during the summer. I have a bunch more to make, that I need to fill up my stash for this coming Christmas.

Hope you have the time to make something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Flower Friday 7-24

Morning and hello!

I am here again with a flower card that I made recently. I had fun with this lovely tulip image. I love to colour this image and it's a blast every time. of course do I not remember it is who have made it. It's an old one as well as the designer papers. 

The designer papers are from Me to You if I am not totally wrong. It is a good match to the bright pink that I used for my tulips. A border made with a punch from my stash is used to add some details. I have also used some silver lined nuvo drops to add some extra details. I also have used a sentiment from hÄnglar and Wings. It looks great together, even managed to make it double matted this time. I hope you like my creation and find some inspiration to make a card or two with your old stash. It's like having new stash after a few years! LoL

Mini Monday 9-24

Morning and hello!

Here is finally a new card for my Mini-Monday series. This one is a cross stitched one with a fave colour combo that I love: blue and silver. The best ever. I had a period during the winter when I cross stitched some small images for Christmas cards to my pen pals. It was such a relaxing time. Now do I have a few ones with flowers on the go. I have also started to discover kumihimo braiding. Lots of fun so far even if I feel stupid when I don't get the basics. Slowly getting there and I have a whole bunch of beads that I hope to use some day.

Back to the card. I have some more to show that is from my Christmas creations. But for today is it all done. Hope you like my little creation where I also have used some silver stickers for a tone on tone look. 

Love n hugs

Use a die over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!

It's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This weeks theme is set to "Use a die". Nice and easy for you all to play along with. I have used three of them for my card.

Our fabby sponsor this week is Dies to Die for. They offer one lucky winner a £15 gift voucher. Thank you for that.

And here is my card for this weeks challenge. I have used an old stamp from my stash. It's a stamp from one of my favourite stamp brands called Bildmålarna. They are out of business since many years. I still miss them and the other day did I decide to dig into my stash that still have some unused stamps. This is one of them. 

I have paired the image together with designer papers from Bo Bunny. My photo got a bit strange colour wise but hopefully you can see a little how it looks. I have kept the design simple with just the two unregular rectangles that I have used for the image. I have also used a die for the border panel, a wavy one from Spellbinders. I love the clean look of these dies, the border one I mean. Some black pearls give an extra punch to the card and a little magnolia butterfly from my stash that I want to use up. I have coloured it with my markers as it was pretty dull all in white.

I wish you a great day and look forward to see your creations over at our challenge blog!

Love n hugs
