A little mini card

Morning every one!

I am back again. This time with a little Christmas card  made with stuff from Lawn Fawn. I have a bunch left over from earlier creative moments and I try using the leftovers. Soon is it time to start making new pieces for new cards.

 It's fun to make these tiny cards ever now and then. And I will leave you with that. Do take a little time and play with your leftovers both paper scraps as well as images. It's really fun!

Have fun creating!

Masculine over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!

Hi there! We have a new challenge up for you all to play along with over at Passion for Markers. This week are we playing with the theme

Masculine

We are sponsored by the lovely people over at Doctor Digis house of Stamps. They offer one lucky winner 2 digis  of winners choice.

I have used the digi Baking Brian. I used the same image a few months ago and lucky for me I had another one already coloured when I had my hands acting up, due to the heat. I am a strange person that feels better in the cold and dry air. Not the sunshine and heat. I have coloured with my promarkers.

I have used designer paper from an old paper pad the I don't have the cover left on. It's not used a lot because of the embossed patterns and glitter stuff. I don't like that at all. However I did manage to make a card for my brother's big day.

I have used a simple design that I often goes to when I lack inspiration and have trouble getting a creating flow.. As I was a bit stressed did I had trouble getting the card together. It is my brother's fault, as he should not have a party and then there was one spontaneously. Stress hit but I got it done. 

I did also made a thing about the inside but that did I keep private. It got better than the front. But Hey ho I got some new inspiration and have been able to make a Christmas card as well. Felt so good and that made me finish yet another card done. 

Now is it your turn to give our theme a chance and we all in the team look forward to come and visit you all. 

Have a good week!

Love n hugs

Christmas Cheers 3 2025

 Morning and hello!

It's mid June and I have a new Christmas card to show you today. By now should I have made 12 of them, but I have not. There is only, 8 or 9 made so far. When the schools have come to an end in a week will I start that project. Hopefully you will see more of my Christmas creations then. I need a few more this year than before. Nieces and nephews have grown up and moved away. Lucky for me to be able to send more cards!

This card is made with an image from hÄnglar and Wings. And as most of the time for Christmas have I used Maja Design designer papers. This paper pad is from 2024. I have also dug out one of my border punches from Martha Stewart. A few die cut snowflakes that I have made extra sparkling with some gemstones. A few paper roses and Nuvo drops in silver have given the last details. 

Hope you like my creation even if it is in the middle of summer and not close to winter and Christmas. It will be here sooner than later.

Love n hugs

Use a circle over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello everyone!

It's me again. Long time no seen. I have been a bit lazy when it come to my cardmaking lately. I have spent more time with my crochet hook, making my small toys for kids at hospitals. It have been a good time when it comes to that.

Anyway, we have a new challenge up over at Passion for Markers today and this week's theme is set to

Use a circle

Our sponsor this week is Rachel Anne Miller who will spoil one lucky winner with a gift voucher worth £10.

Thank you for that lovely price!

For my card have I used a lovely image from RAM digital stamps called Friendship Mouse. Isn't it cute? I love it, it's so sweet and I love the lady bug. I have a special relationship to that insect. My grand dad used to call me Maria Nyckelpiga which is a character from a book. He always called me that and it was only him doing that. I think about him when I see one.

 

I have colored with a mix of markers from different brands. The designer paper is from Echo Park and the paper pad My favorite summer. As I printed my image pretty large was there not much space left for more than one dp. I added a ribbon to give some texture and details and I dug around in my flower stash and used a few of those as well. I also used a pink metal thread to give some more details with the flowers. 

It was great fun to make a card again and use my metallic dies again. It was some time since I did that. This is one of those times when I wish I had a bigger die cut machine to get a larger circle but it turned out ok anyone. I have used plenty of circles on my card: for the image, the card shape and there is plenty of layers as well. 

I hope you like what you see and there is plenty of inspiration over at our challenge blog Passion for Markers. We hope to see you there and I look forward to get some inspiration from all of you!
