Christmas Cheers 15-23

Morning and hello!
Hi! I am back with a new creation. This time is it a Christmas card that will bring you (hopefully) some inspiration to create a card or two of your own. I have once again used a hÄnglar and Wing image from my stash. This image is from the set called Ful jultröja/ ugly Sweater.


I have used some old designer papers from different brands. They are all leftovers and means that I have managed to finish a few paper pads this year. It feels so good to be able to do that. Finish something is just what you need to get some space for new stash. :) I am drowning in paper pads, and I should probably not buy more in a few years or so. Will not happen, but the thought is really good and I should follow my own advice.

I have used a ribbon and some Nuvo drops to decorate my card. It's simple with many layers. I have also used a punch for one of my panels. 

Hope I have given you some inspiration. Wish you a wonderful day and take good care!

Love n hugs
Marie

Just for fun 41-23

Morning and hello!
Hope you're having an enjoyable day with some time for you, to do something you wish for. Today have I made a card made with a stamp with a Margreth Sherry image. I have actually cross stitched this image as well, together with a sweet cat poem to match the image. I plan to stitch it once more for my cats' veterinary. She deserves it! The way she can fix any broken bone in a cat or a dog, and the patient she has when it comes to helping terrible wounds to heal. She is truly an angel on earth. 


I have used designer papers from Carta Bella, or maybe Echo Park. I love the patterns and colors in this pad. It's an amazing collection with all the great patterns and colors. The sentiment is from Nellie Snellen if I remember correctly. I have used it quite a lot during the years. It's great one. Wish there was a smaller version available as well. Some pearls in the corners is used to decorate the card and a piece of lace that is hard to see on the photo, but it's there. 

Now is it time for me to say goodbye now. I wish you a great day and do take some time to do something that you really want to do.

Love n hugs

 Morning and hello!
Hi and hello! I am back again with a new card made just for the fun of creating. Yet another card with a hÄnglar and Wing image. This is from a summer set called Kulglass/ Fun Ice cream. I had hoped to use earlier but hey, ice cream is good any time of the year. 


The designer papers are from Simple Stories, sorry I don't have the name available at the moment. I loved to color this one and you see the large spoon she holds in her hand? Well, there is a matching ice cream stamp in the set, but I have not used it yet. It's huge! I look forward to an ice cream that size some day soon. 

I have used some wooden hearts to decorate the card and some fake flowers to that. The colors of the flowers are stunning and a perfect match to my designer papers. There is also some die cut leaves to the flowers. Some Nuvo drops finish everything off. I love my Nuvo drops. They are so pretty!

Well then, time for you to do something you love. I wish you a wonderful day!

Love n hugs

 Morning and hello!
Hi there! I have been playing with my fabby cardmaking stash again. All those stamps I have invested in during the years have been set to use again. Well, I have mainly been playing with some new stamps this time. 

This card is made with a stamp from hÄnglar och Wings. This image is a few years old. It's named Fika-Fredrik. It has now been retired but the company have many other lovely images with Fika theme. 


This one is colored with my promarkers and I have paired the image up with a paper pad from Echo Park. Spring something... I have used some pearl stars to decorate the card. There is also a few flowers both one I have made myself and two other paper flowers. A die cut butterfly with some Nuvo drops on it, the leaves are also die cut. The yellow panel is from another brand of designer papers. It's an odd one I have in my stash. I needed some good yellow to the rest of the designer papers.  :)

Hope I have sent some inspiration your way and I wish you a great day and hope that you have time to do something that you enjoy. 

Love n hugs
Marie

Spots and or stripes over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!
it's Tuesday again and it's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. This week do we have a theme set by Lisa M. and she have chosen the theme of "Spots and or strips". It should be a nice and easy theme to play with. Can't wait to see what you will create for this challenge. 


Our sponsor this week is Di's Digi stamps. They offer one lucky winner a gift voucher worth $6. How great isn't that?

For my card this week have I used an image from hÄnglar and Wings. The image is from the stamp set called Fågelskrämmor/ Scarecrows. It's a super sweet image that goes in the same style as the lovely Snowmen / Snögubbar. 


It was so fun to color and create this card with this lovely image. I'm looking forward to use the boy version of the stamp set as well. It's a lovely set with a bunch of pumpkins and sentiment stamps as well. I have colored with promarkers for this card. And I used a paper pad from Kaiser Kraft. I have used some recycled some ribbed paper as a layer under the image. I also made some paper roses and die cut some leaves to that. Butterfly shaped gemstones is used to add some bling and a few pearls/stones in black is also give a little dimension to the theme of spots. A white gel pen is also used for some small details. 

Well then, now is it your time to start creating and add your creation to our challenge. I hope that you have fond some inspirations from my card, and don't forget to jump on over to our challenge blog.

Take care and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
Marie
