Another challenge combo and DT call

I'm back after having another set back with my joints. Totally lucky that I have my crafting to keep me busy! Give me something fun to think about. Just gets a little slow in working progress every now and then. :)

This time I have a card combining the challenges at LOTV and Passion for Promarkers. The card is also made for the DT call over at Bearly Mine Design. So of course this card is made with here wonderful DP. Freebees just as Donna wished for, exept for one. The brown one in the back, that is from the Plain paper stack of hers. Go over and check the DT call out for yourself! The theme at PfP is Best friends, and the sketch is from LOTV made by the lovely and inspiring Bev.

Well then! Back to my card. This time I used the aquamarkers to colour my image. I used a piece from an album sheet this time. Try to find the best paper to colour on, so far letrasets own cartright pad is in the lead together with the aquarell pads around. Heavy weight of course! The image is from LOTV, DP from Bearly Mine, some die cut buttons and stars and this is what I ended up with.

Now time for a little rest and the pick up the boys from day care last time this week. Have a wonderful day! I see you soon again!

And a little PS: Thanks Annelie for the Award! I will "deal" with it during the weekend! Thanks again! :))

Another little creation

Oh yes! I did make a bunch of these little boxes for the cat shelter the other week. I have shown two of them so far I think. Here comes no. 3. This is also made with DP from Donnas Bearly Mine Design. I am so in love with these DP. And I love to get them in to the right size already in the computer. Can't be any better!
For this I have also used a Hänglar image coloured with my promarkers. Some flowers made with a Marianne createable die and flowers and leafs from Wild Orchid Craft. Swirly stamps from Whiff of Joy. God Jul sentiment from Stämpelgården.
Have a wonderful Monday!

Hugs,
Marie

Passion for Promarkers meets Friday sketchers

At Passion for Promarkers this week you can choose from making a pink and white christmas card or a lilac and white one. I went for the first option as I have printed out a bunch of wonderful pink DP from Donna at Bearly Mine Design. I combinded this with the lovely sketch from Friday Sketchers this week. A real joy to work with. It has taken me the whole week to get this little card together after being totally knocked out from cold and meds for the joints. I'm on recovery now and it feels good.
The wonderful stamp is a digistamp from Inger Harding. Found it thanks to Lia in the Netherlands. Thanks for the tip Lia. They are all wonderful. Really greatful that these has come my way. I love the old fashion look of those ladies. Please check out Lias wonderful work, as well as Ingers blog.

This is it for me for today. Time to put the kids in the bath tub and then a storie and then hopefully they go to sleep fast. I need so rest! ;)

Hugs,
Marie

Ohh, such a long week.

Have been spending most of it in bed. Totally knocked out of my meds in a lovely combo with a really bad cold. Not to recomened. Still lacks a lot of energy so this card is probably the most simple you will see this year! I used "big snowflakes" from PinkPretticoat, a ribbon from Wildorchid Craft and some pearly things and a snow flake charm from a cross stitching magazine.
This card goes in to the challenge at Altheas Mix where we are making Christmas Cards till 13th of december. This week the theme is Red. Only 9 weeks left or something like that. Good that I have this challenge as I gave away most of my Christmas cards yesterday to the Catshelter Kompis. Sent all my guys (young and old) while I stayed in bed. Hope they managed to sell some of it.

Time to head back to the bed again. Still dizzy!

Take care!
Hugs,
Marie

Just a little something

I've have decorated another little gang of match boxes. The coming weekend it's club championships at Calmare Cat Club and the catshelter "katthemmet Kompis" will be there. I support them and instead of just giving them cards that I've made, I thought that a few of these would be nice to give them. I am so happy that you gave me this idea Annelie! Thanks again!
For this little box I have used two of the new stamps from the Club kit from Magnolia, a flower from Prima and DP from Bearly Mine Design once again. I love those made by Donna. This time I made "handles" from ribbon instead of brads. A little easier to open the small boxes this way.

This is all for now. Take care and have a lovely day!

Hugs,
Marie
