Just for Fun 18-24

Morning and hello!
Dropping by with a card in fall colours. The image is from my huge stash of hÄnglar and wings images. This one is called Coola hÄnglar. This is the female image, as you couldn't see that. 


I have coloured with my promarkers and paired my image with designer papers from Maja Design. I don't remember the name of the paper pad. With a cake paper, ribbon and bow, some paper flowers as well as die cut leaves and a die cut border from Lawn Fawn. I had fun making this one and I love the detail with the corrugated cardstock behind the image. 

Hope you like what you see and can enjoy something else than Christmas cards for a few moments!

Love n hugs

Just for fun 19-24

Morning and hello!
I am back again with a card that I have made to keep me busy during a painful day. Luckly I could colour even if I was in pain. It's not often the case at this point. This is also one of my hÄnglar and Wings images. This is called Prins och Prinsessa


I went back to something that I used to do pretty often before, colour with only warm grey markers. This time did I use skin colours, I don't know why. I didn't do that before. But it looks fairly good together with the grey. I have used a paper pad from Carta Bella or Echo Park for this card. Some gemstones in black have been used to add a little texture and details to my card. I have also used a sentiment from hÄnglar and Wings. It means congratulations in Swedish.

I hope you like my little creation! Now is it back to Christmas creations once again. I need a few more cards in the larger size for the coming season. 

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Mini Monday 16-24

Morning and hello!
Here is another of my mini cards. This one also made with left overs I have in my stash that didn't get used when I had planned to. The trees are made with dies from my stash. 


 This time have I used an acrylic pen to make the snowfall.. It became a little too much, but give a different look. I have used some glitter pens on the images as well. It doesn't show up much here on the photo. The card is around 7,5 cm - 5,0 cm, so it's pretty small, but big enough to go into a letter to my pen pals.

Have a great day!

Love n hugs

Just for Fun 17-24

 Morning and hello!
A new card from me and today is the card the total opposite to Christmas. I have used one of the fabby summer release called Sommartjej. It is a digital image with instant access. It's a charming image that I enjoyed to colour. 


Once again have I paired my image together with a paper pad from Maja Design, this is from this summer. I think it's named Seaside or something like that. .It's full of lovely summer vibes and the coast. I love the blue shades together with some green. I used some craft cardstock and wooden stars with some postal red nuvo drops. It gives me a summer vibe together with the blue, white and craft. The border die is from Magnolia, Sweden. I did also use some corrugated card stock behind my image. Hope you like my card. I am kind of proud of my colouring for this card.

Dry embossing over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!
 Hello there! Hope you had a good start of the week and are ready for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers? This week's theme is set to "Dry Embossing". It was a long time since I dug out my embossing folders, so this is a fun challenge.



Our sponsor this week is Doctor Digis House of Stamps. They offer one lucky winner two digis of winners choice. Thank you for that!

For my card have I used Baking Brian which you find by clicking the link. I had fun colouring this one and have done so with copics and Spectrum noir markers. I had another one of Brian coloured but when I should use it, I had no idea where it has gone. Had to start over again, luckly I have a good day and could colour. Happy every time it works out! 


it might be a little hard to see my embossing, but the yellow panel is dry embossed with big dots on it. It shows like shadows on the paper. I have used one of my old happy paper pads from Jillibean Soup, the paper pad is from 2011! Love it when I can use my stash. Maybe I can find some more inspiration to used some more papers from it? It would be nice to use some of the old stuff up, to make room for new stuff1 :)

I have also used a few of my wooden buttons as decoration together with a white ribbon. I have also used a letter set from Magnolia, Sweden. It's a lovely set of letter dies. I don't know the name of it, but I think there is tree different fonts to chose from. I love them all!

Well, this is all from me for today. Hope you find some inspiration from me and my team mates over at Passion for Markers. We look forward to see what you come up with!

Love n hugs

Morning and hello!
Hi there! Here comes November's first Christmas card, well not first but mid month Christmas card. Once again have I used an image from hÄnglar and Wings. This image is from the set called Snöskoj. I love snowmen of all kinds, can't get enough of them. I have a bunch of them in my stash that I have not had the time to use yet. But one day!


For this card have I used a paper pad from either Echo Park or Carta Bella, or maybe Simple Stories. But probably from Echo Park. I went back to basic, or from the early times of my card making. I have used my spellbinder oval frame / shapes. I have also used a die cut from Magnolia, Sweden and one from Lawn Fawn. Some pearls, snowflake dies is also used together with paper flowers together with a snowflake charm.

Hope you like it!

Just for fun 16-24

Morning and hello!
 Here comes a little creation from me. I have made another card that isn't Christmas during this time of the year. 

This image is from hÄnglar and wings and is from the set Fågelskrämmor. I have coloured with a mix of markers and used a paper pad from Carta Bella.


Some paper flowers and some pearls add some lovely details to this simple card. I have also used a enamel heart on the scarecrow's pocket. I love the green clothes. It was a good combo of shades. I have been looking for a less yellow green. This might be it!

Take care and do take some time to do something that makes you happy!

Flower Friday 9-24

Morning and hello!
Hi there! I took inspiration from the lovely weather we had today and made a flower card for once. It is nice to get away from the Christmas and winter here and there. 

I don't know who have made this lovely image. I have had it printed for a long time in my stash. I am not sure from where the designer papers is either. 


I used some fabric flowers from my stash together with a piece of lace. I also added some gemstones together with some black nuvo drops as a little texture to the card. 

Hope you find a little inspiration from my creation!

Have a lovely crafty weekend!
