Christmas Cheer 7-22

Morning and hello!

We are on the last day of July 2022 and I have a new Christmas card to show you all. I have once again made a card with an image from Bugaboo. I miss them so much! Totally different from all other brands. Please come back!

I have coloured this fun image with my Promarkers. I have used some really bright colours and paired the image with black card stock and a colourful paper pack from Dove Craft. A few snow flakes in plastic is the main decoration together with some turquoise ribbon in double rows and a tied bow to that. I have also added one of my snow flake charms. To finish this "cool" card have I used some glittery Nuvo drops in the corners of my creation. I have by the way used a Martha Stewart punch for one of my card stock panels as well. A nice touch for some extra details for my card.

Well my friends this is all from me during the month of July 2022. Next time we meet it will be August and soon will the schools start again even if there is some weeks left before that. Routines are wonderful but it's nice to have some free time as well to enjoy the warm summer.

Take care and take some time to be creative!

Birthdays! over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

It's Tuesday again and time for a new fun challenge over at Passion for markers. This week's theme is "Birthdays". A nice and easy theme from us, right? Don't forget to make sure that it is a birthday card.

Our sponsor this week is Di's Digi stamps. They are offering a lucky winner a $6 voucher to spend in their shop. Thank you so much for that!

For my card today have I used a Bugaboo stamp that I had in my stash of coloured images. Still fighting a battle with my hands/fingers when it comes to colouring. Anyway, my youngest nephew had his first birthday some days ago and this is what I sent to him.

It's many layers on this cards, like most of the time when I create my cards. I have used an Echo Park paper pad called Welcome spring which is perfect for my bee image. The lady bug and on his antennas have I used glossy accent with makes it look a bit off here on the photo but it looks nice IRL. I have used a die cut cirkel to make space for my number 1. And it pops as I have used a black frame around it as well. Many layers of die cut number to get some texture on the card. In the corners have I used Nuvo Drops in a transparent colour.

Well this is all for now. I wish you a good day and hope that you come and play with us this week. All alco markers are welcome now days.

Take care and have a crafty week!

Christmas cheer 2-22

Morning and hello!

Time for February's Christmas Cheer. This image I believe is from Bugaboo but I am not sure. I have had it printed for a while now, and coloured too. It's a sweet image that is nice to colour as well. 

I have paired my image with a few die cuts from Crealies (the rectangle) and the hearts are probably from Gummiapan. The designer papers are from Lawn Fawn. It's a really simple card but a nice to create. The sentiment is by the way from hÄnglar and Wings. I have used Altenew ink for that one.

Take good care and do something that makes you happy!

Just 4 Fun 9-22

Morning and hello!

Hi there and welcome back to my little corner of the blogging world. It's time for a new card that I have created just for the fun of it. To enjoy some time with paper and glue and markers are so relaxing, don't you think?

For this card have I used a Bugaboo image that I have had in my stash for quite some time now. I have paired my image up with an even older paper pack from My Minds Eye. I got the paper pack free from a magazine.

I have used a bunch of things from my stash that I've had cut or stashed in different places and packed it all up in the shape of this card. Some left over leaf, some flowers, some enamel stars, an off cut of a pink ribbon. And to finish it all off have I used some Nuvo Chrystal drops.

Well, I hope I have inspired you to play with your craft stash just because it's lots of fun!

Take care and have a lovely week!

Morning and hello!

It's time for one of my cards that I make for the fun of it. To be creative is a way for my to relax and have fun. It's soul food how to speak.

 This card is made with one of the lovely images from Bugaboo. I'm so sad that they are no longer in the crafting world. Their images is such joy to colour and have fun with. 

I have used some left overs from Carta Bellas Floral 3. I loved that pad! I have to buy it in digital version if I can't find it in print again. Best pad ever! I have also used a few pearls and a black ribbon to make the card pop.

Take good care and do something that makes you happy!

Morning and hello!

Time for me to sit down and blog a card that I have made just for the fun of it. I normally spend some time during the beginning of each month and put up some post that goes live during the coming month. We'll see how that goes this month as I am in really bad shape at the moment. 

Well then, the creation of the day then... This card was made a while ago and I used up fairly much of the paper pad from Echo park called spring something something...

The image is from Bugaboo and is a joy to colour. I have put a few of the images together to get a wider image. I kind of like how it turned out. I love how easy the Bugaboo stamps are to colour, this is no exception. They are also inviting you to make colourful creations and that's good because happy colours bring a smile to your face, right?

Well this is all for today. Wishing you a good day and do take some time to do something you enjoy.

Love n hugs

Something beginning with a "B" over at Passion for Markers

Morning and hello!

It's Tuesday today and that means we have a new challenge up for you over at Passion for Markers. This week's theme is set to "Something beginning with a B". So we need to see something on the card beginning with the letter "B".

Our sponsor this week is BugaBoo stamps. They offer one lucky winner a giftvoucher worth $12. Thank you so much for that and for our lovely digis.

For my card have I used the lovely and very cute image called Bee flower. It's great fun to colour and I love the broad lines in the image. I have coloured with mixture of copics and promarkers. I enjoyed making the card. I realize that I have run out of spring designer papers, which is good as I can buy new ones but for now will this have to wait. The papers are from Echo Park but I don't remember what it's called. I have also used a piece from one of the stripes and dots paper pads from Echo Park as well. 

To have something more than the Bee starting with a "B" have I added some butterflies and the bug is there as well. The dies use are from different brands. I have also used a few pearls and Nuvo Drops for some final touches. I love the bottles with the drops in wonderful colours. I wish I had more of them. I have also used some glossy accent on the lady bug, the flower and the wings of the bee. Some lovely texture on the card. 

Well this is all from me for today. I hope you come and joy us in this fun challenge. Remember that we are now open to all markers out there.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs

Morning and hello!

Happy Friday everyone! Hope your week has been good and that the weekend will be even better. 

I have been playing around again with some of my stash and this is a fabby image from Bugaboo that I adore. It's fun to colour and you really get different feels to it depending on which colours you are using. 

This is a fairly bright image but my designer papers from Pink Paisley (Indigo and blue I think) makes the card  kind of classy. I totally adore dark blue colour but it's hard to find designer papers that are as lovely as this. For some dimension have I used a bunch of pearls in different colours and a golden ribbon. 

Hope you like what you are seeing and that I have given you some inspiration to create something just because it's fun!

Have a happy weekend everyone!

Love n hugs

Morning and hello!

I am back with a new creation made in the middle of the night. I am so tired of me not sleeping and still I love the hours I get to spend with my craft stash. This time have I made a card a digi from Bugaboo stamps. 

I have used a bunch of scraps from my scrap box to get this card together. There is some pink fresh designer papers from to different collections I think. And some from Glitz if I am correct. The only decorations is three clusters with dots in different colours. It's a really simple card that will be perfect to send just for the fun of it. 

Take good care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
