R for recycling, DT card for ABC Christmas Challenges

This time the theme at ABC Christmas Challenge

is really brilliant!

R for Recycling and Ribbons or Rhinestones.

Now you got the chance to get rid of some of the
stuff you have collected 'in case of...'


Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is
Digital Delights.

The random picked winner will receive
3 digistamps of their choice.

The girls at the team has been really creative
this time, jump to the ABC Christmas Challenge
blog to see their wonderful creations and tips.
And I'm sure you will be inspired.

This is the beginning of my project.
A tin can opened in the wrong end.
(Well it really started with a dinner or something)

The pic is taken late at night.

Here you can see the altered tin.

For a long time ago I found a tutorial at Tussan's place.

I have used Stuck Up the Chimney from our sponsor Digital Delights.
He is a dream to colour.
I have added Stickles on the white of his clothes.

The edge punch is from Marthe Stewart,
the white snowflakes are made with the same punch.

The papers are from Maja design.
The sentiment on the tag is a freebie from Create with TLC.

The ribbon is from my stash.
Note the expire date on the box. I have had it for a while.

The back side with home made flowers decorated with rhinestones.
Annette has a great flowers tutorial on her blog.

The round sentiment is from Magnolia, the sentiment on the tag
is so old that I can't remember where it's from.

Inside some of my favorite chocolates.
You have to fill the box as one of the first things you do.

If you are lucky-as me- there is going to be some left overs!

Så sier man tak!

Drengefødselsdagskort går som varmt hvedebrød i vores familie.
Det er jo dejligt.
Men det er ikke alle motiver der kan bruges.
Fyren fra LOTV blev dog godkendt,
og det var jeg glad for.

Papiret er "Archaic" fra Basic Grey. Dem har jeg
brugt til mange af de drengekort jeg har lavet.

Kantpunchen er fra Martha Stewart.
Nok min favorit lige for tiden.

Metalpynten er fra Tim Holtz.
Embossingfolderen fra Cuttlebug

Tekststemplet er fra Norsk Stempelblad, jeg har dog
taget hjertene før og efter teksten væk!

Jeg var fristet til at prøve at lave skyer på
dette kort, men droppede det fordi jeg kom i tidsnød.
Jeg har brug for lidt mere øvelse.

Alle kanter har fået lidt distress.

Det velbrugte "Tøff og Kul" stempel fra Stempelglede.

Bagsiden i kendt stil.

Jeg har brugt sketchen fra Simon Says Stamp Challenge.
Den er roteret 90 grader.

Udfordringer:

• Simon Says Stamp- Dawny's Sketch
• Kort o Mania-#45 Mann-Gutt
• Creative Card Crew-Anything Goes
• Hanna and Friends-#108 LOTV

Yes you Can-Can!

Det var på tide at denne flotte dame fik lidt sus i skørtet!
Det er et stempel fra Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

De farvestærke mønsterpapirer er fra Bo Bunny.
Kantpunchen er en Martha Stewart punch.

Halvperlene er fra Kort og Godt Hobby,
båndet fra Panduro.

Jeg har brugt lidt Crackle Accent på det lille hjerte.
Tekststemplet er også fra Kraftin Kimmie.

Tekststemplet inden i er fra Kort og Godt Hobby.

Så er vi ved den sædvanlige bagside....

Se den flotte blomst. Den er lavet med to forskellige
størrelser af punchede retroblomster.
Annette har en tutorial på sin blog
om hvordan man laver den.
Enkelt og elegant.

Jeg har brugt sketchen fra Sweet Sketch Wednesday.

Et æble om dagen......

Et æble om dagen holder lægen fra døren
(hvis man ellers kan ramme !), siger man.

Her er mit sidste nye House Mouse stempel, "Nature Bites" hedder det.
Det kom i posten i fredags.
Tekststempelet er også H&M.

Mønsterpapiret er fra Maja Design, det passer perfekt til motivet.
Jeg har lavet et foldekort, det er vel nærmest et Criss Cross kort der
mangler den ene side. Jeg ved ikke om det har et navn.

Æblet har fået en gang Glossy Accent.
Denne gang var jeg meget nøje
med at læse på flasken!

På den skrå kant har jeg pyntet med en bord
der er lavet med en Martha Stewart punch.
Flot og meget anvendelig.

Jeg har brugt samme på enderne af tekstskiltet.
Æblet ved teksten er stemplet og
klippet ud i mønsterpapiret.

Knapper fra Basic Grey.
Og se så lige mine lækre æbler på træet!

Bagsiden med et hjemmelavet "lavet af Dorte",
to stempler der er maskeret sammen.

Jeg har brugt sketchen fra Cute Card Thursday.

Inspired by a book or a book cover , DT card for FFF.

Friday again and time for a new challenge at
Fairy Fun Fridays!

Hannah is hosting today and she wants
you to be inspired by a book.

I think it is a faboulous theme.

I also have some exiting news for you.
Roberta has been a busy lady lately and
made a lot of new images.

They are not to be found in the shop yet but
during next week or so, they will be available.

But you can get a sneek peek, because the Fairy
Princess has made some wonderful cards
this week with some new digistamps.

I have been inspired by this book - well to tell the
true the inspiration was the other way round.
I saw Fisherman Lewis, and knew at once that
he was my man. (Don't tell my hubby.)

Then I just had to find a suitable book!

"Getting started fly fishing!"

Fisherman Lewis, isn't he handsome?
The papers are "Archaic" from Basic Grey.
Great papers for a man's card.

Embellishments are from Basic Grey and Tim Holtz.

The text on the tag is computer generated, and
means directly "bad fishing luck".

Used the same way as "break a leg".

This is my first attempt to make
clouds as background.
Bev has made a cloud template
and a great tutorial here.

The inside with space for a regard.
I tried to make it look like a photo
with photo corners.

The backside a bit like the front.
As always.

I have used this sketch from Sunday Sketch & Stamp.

Challenges:

• Sunday Sketch & Stamp-#69 Sketch
• Cards for men-#17 Anything Goes
• Whimsy Stamps Challenge Blog-#3 Anything goes-with a sentiment (on my tag)
• Allsorts challenge blog-Week 117 You'v been framed
• Craft your passion challenge-#72 They said what??!!
• Pollycraft Monday Challenge-#107 Autumn Colours
• Top Tip Tuesday-#48 A Masculine Card
• Basic Grey Challenges-#51 Anything Goes
• Paper Sundaes- #83 Sundae Bar (Green, buttons)

When my card was almost finished I decided
to add some Glossy Accent on
Lewi's glasses and on the water.
So I did, and after a while I was going
to take some photos for the blog.

Big surprise!

By a mistake I had added Crackle Accent!
Look at the poor guy's glasses!

After a while I managed to laugh, and started
printing and colouring once more.

So Fairy Prinsesses, that was why I was a bit
late with my card this week.


Take care!

I have used Edwin from Magnolia this time. I have placed him

It's also a Magnolia stamp.

If you know the song I will guess you are singing by now!

I have made a blue frame with two Spellbinder dies.
Edwin has glitter on his wings.

The lovly papers are from Ladybug and Friends.

Inside a sentiment from Norsk Stempelblad.

LOTV Bryllupskort.

Jeg er færdig med bryllupskortet som jeg fortalte om forleden.
Jeg valgte at bruge LOTV motivet,
jeg synes de er så søde de to små.

Der er mange fotos i dag, jeg klarede ikke helt
at styre min begejstring!
Ta en kop kaffe, og bliv med til det sidste punktum.
Det synes jeg havde været hyggeligt.

Papirene er fra Maja Design, serien hedder "Sommartider"
Den sorte karton har lidt glans i sig, men det kan ikke ses her.
Jeg synes det ser elegant ud.

Jeg har brugt Stickles på kjolen og rundt om motivet.

Banneret med parrets navne er lavet på PC.

Jeg har overgået mig selv når det gælder blomster,
jeg kan næsten ikke huske at ha brugt så mange før.

Det er en mix af hjemmelavede
roser og købte blomster
fra Hobbyhimmelen og fra Kort og Godt.

Surprise, surprise, det var et easelkort.

Tekststemplet er fra Kort og Godt.

Jeg har lavet en tag som er gemt i bunden af kortet.
Det er ellers ikke let at finde plads til at skrive
på et easelkort.

For første gang har jeg brugt denne punch fra
Marthe Stewart hele vejen rundt om arket.
Lækkert!

Og jeg fik målene til at gå op!

Den røde og den hvide rose er lavet med en Die-Namic die.
Jeg har ikke rigtig fået det til før nu, det var
nemmere da jeg kom på at bruge en limpistol.

Bladene er lavet med en punch.

Der blev også lige plads til en "Love" charm.
Den kom jeg i tanke om da blomsterne var færdigmonteret.
Det var noget rigtig pirk at få den fæstet
inde blandt blomstene uden at ødelægge noget.

Siden det er et bestillingskort var jeg nødt
til at lave lidt reklame for mig!

Jeg har brugt denne skitse fra Sketchy Colors som udgangspunkt
