Sunday and finally a new card to show...

Here comes a card that have taken me a whole week to get together. Sick kids makes it hard to finish anything. But now finally, and I even had a bit a luck with the weather. Got a little sunshine when I took the photo of the card, may be a little too much of it, but it's better than rain and clouds. :) Saw the weather report for the coming week and it is not looking to bright.

So this card is made with one of the new Magnolia Tilda's; Tilda needs a hug. Very sweet and adorable and fun to colour as well. For that I have used my trusted promarkers. What would I do without them? The tickets is made with a T.H die and stamped with whimsy sentiment stamps. Memento brown on purple cardstock. The designer papers are from Bearly Mine Design and the set is called "Christmas Sparkle". A new lovley digi set is on the way called Christmas Dreams. You will love it. Release day Friday 12th and there will also be a sale going on to celebrate Donna, the designer's birthday. Go over to the store and check it out for youself. Lots of wonderful papers to work with.

The card will be entered in the following challenges:

* Passion for Promarkers - Pearls, purple and lace

* I love promarkers - Snowflakes

* Friday sketchers -  the sketch of course

This is all from me for today. Take care every one and have a wonderful time. Happy crafting!

Hugs,

Marie

And now Papertake Weekly Challenge

I have been working on some cards this week. My oldest son turned four yesterday and what do little boys love more than their mums? Yeah, right CARS! So as I did a simular card a few weeks back for his little mate, I had to make him one as well. This is how it turned out. The image is from a down load site with colouring pages for kids (and grown kids like me!). Made some check paper to go behind the image and teamed it up with some bright colours and I ended up with this. The theme at Papertake Weekly Challenge this week is "for the boys", so this card was as made for this challange. Lucky me!

So time for me to go and rest for a little while and then some crafting time before I pick up the kids from kindergarten for the last time this week.

Have a lovely day out there!

Ps: I should probably enter this at "Cards for Men" (Open theme, just has to be for men/boys this time) as well, after a little tip I got from a new  friend in the card making world. I have never entered that challenge so it would be fun. Thanks for the tip Shirley!

Back at DCD Christmas Challenge

Friday again and I have kind of been lazy when it comes to posting here this week. But now I am back again. This time I have chosen to do a card for the x-mas challenge at DCD Christmas Challenge. The theme for this week is to use a Christmas Digi Image. This little darling is a freebee from Inger Harding. She is so cute and I love the vintage look of her clothes. My DP this time is a mixture from Bearly Mine's and a paper that have been hanging around in my scrapbox forever. My flowes are my with a Marianne die, and a punch for the flowers. Quite plain and simple. Just the way I like it at the moment.

Have a wonderful day! I will try to do some crafting today as the weather is less nice to put it that way. Perfect crafting weather in other words. ;)

Hugs,
Marie

It's time again!

Time for another card to show off that is. Todays challenges is Bah! Humbug! with the theme of presents, and the sketch is from Friday Sketchers once again. I keep going with the X-mas cards as I love to make them. This one goes in blue, purple and grey and a little touch of silver to pop it up a little. I have no clue of where the papers are from. I have replaced the package somewhere and it refuses to show up. May be I have gosts here? ;) It might be Dovecraft...

The image is one of Lili of the Valleys wonderful Christmas stamps. So cute and sketchy looking. Love that look. Snow flakes made with create a flake from Spellbinders, half pearls from Bunny Zoe's as well is the "webby" ribbon. And some snow from flower soft (polar white). :) Sorry about the pic, it's almost imposible to get a good one in this darkness.

Enjoy your day and I hope it is a brighter one than here. Rain, rain, rain, dark, dark, dark...

All the best,
Marie
