Summer over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

It is a new day and a new challenge over at Passion for Markers starting today. This week's very fitting theme is set to "Summer". How fun isn't that for a challenge?

Our sponsor this week is ADU offering a lucky winner two digital images of winner's choice. Thank you for that!

For my card have I used a sponsor image called Beach Time. A bit silly image but very charming! I decided to go really, really bold colours for this image. I found a fantastic paper pad in my stash that is pretty bright and happy. A real summer paper pad! 

I had fun adding a few clouds and a piece of twine for a little detail. I printed the image pretty large as I have trouble with all weather changes at the moment and there is trouble colouring. But it turned out happy and bright anyway, let's be happy about that at least. 

Wish you a great day filled with sunshine and happy moments!

Love n hugs

Add a sentiment over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

Welcome back to my little corner of the world and to a new challenge over at Passion for Markers.Passion for Markers. This week are we going for the theme of "Add a sentiment".  Nice and easy to follow.

Our lovely sponsor this week is Polkadoodles that offers a lucky winner three digital images of winners choice. Thank you so much for that!

For my card this week have I used the lovely image called Ballon days from our sponsor. It was nice and fun to colour this image with both bold parts with little details as well as more tricky parts. I am not able to colour a lot of details at the moment as my joints are fairly stiff from the heat we have at this time.

I have used really old paper pad from my stash, I believe that it's a Me to You paper pad, but I am not totally sure. I have another one looking pretty much the same. 

I have played with old stuff from my stash for this card: flowers, butterfly from Magnolia, ribbon, charm, pins, gemstones etc. The sentiment is from hÄnglar and Wings. The background paper behind the image is an old piece of scraps from something that I bought. It was a nice mix of a colors on it, and matched the designer papers perfectly with it's yellow, pink and blue colours. 

Now is it up to you to find some inspiration and come joining us over at Passion for Markers. Passion for Markers. Take care and have a lovely week!

Christmas Cheers 9-24

Morning and hello!

The end of May is here and I am back with a new Christmas creation. Need to build my stash with more than just mini cards for Christmas. Today have I also gotten back in my digital stamp stash and found this shining star in my collection. I think I have bought it from Sugar Nellie but are not totally sure. It was a while since I coloured and printed this image. 

The designer papers are from Simple Stories and I think I have mixed two different paper pads for this one. They are fair busy, but so are Christmas. I have used lots of bling like gemstones, glitter paper for my snowflakes, a charn in the shape of a snowflake and to that a sheer ribbon with silver snowflakes on it. 

Hope you have found some inspiration to make a Christmas card or two! You know you will thank yourself when December arrives! ;)

Have a good day and do something that makes you happy!

Mini Monday 8-24

Morning and hello!

Here comes a little Christmas card in mini size! I cross stitched a bit while I had a hard time sleeping.

 This is one of them that I made. It looks a bit dull here, but the bulb is bright pinkish and the card base is pale pink. It looks lovely with a modern twist of colours.

Dig out your stash and start to stitch away, it's really relaxing!

Love n hugs

Flower Friday 6-24

Morning and hello!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend and hope that you will have a great time and enjoy the good weather. 

I have just replanted my pelargoniums and can't wait for them to grow big and start to bloom with all their wonderful colours. I have since a few years started to grow them from seeds and it makes such a difference in how strong they grow. At the moment is our house filled with young plants that soon will move out on our terrass and at our front door. I can't wait for that!

So while I wait for my own plants to bloom have I made a card with one of my favourite flowers. The image is from Power Poppy which have amazing digital flower images. They are amazing!

The paper pad I have used is from PinkFresh Studio. It's fairly old paper pad that have got stuck in my stash. Find the designs a bit hard to use for cards but from time to time do I find a fairly good design that works with them. Here is it in my mind a perfect match. 

The sentiment die is in three layers and comes from Gummiapan here in Sweden. The flowers are from my stash. Believe these are from Temu. The dotty things in the corners are glittery Nuvo drops.

Have a good time and do something that makes you happy!

Love n hugs
