Hip hip hurra!

Vores store niece i Oslo fylder 15 år i dag, her er kortet

som forhåbentlig er kommet frem til hende.

 Stemplet hedder 'So What!' ; jeg synes næsten man kan se

det på måden hun står med armene på! Det er fra Sugar Nellie.

De gule papirer er fra en 6x6 blok fra Glittz 

og hedder 'Vintage Blue'.

Jeg kan slet ikke forstå hvordan jeg kan tænke

på at købe noget der hedder 'Vintage...'

En stil som jeg ikke behersker!

 

Happy Birthday stemplet er fra 'Catslife Press'.

Banner og bogstaver er lavet med dies.

 

 Her den sædvanlige bagside, ikke meget nyt her.

 

Jeg har brugt Erikas sketch fra The Sugar Bowl.

Challenges:

• The Sugar Bowl- #92 Sketch
• Bearly-Mine Challenges- Add a sentiment
• Simon Says Stamp Challenge- Anything Goes
• Hanna and Friends- #155 Punkte od Steifen
• Creative Craft Challenges- Anything Goes

.:Tilda With Lace Jeans:.

Efter en travel week-end med cocktail piger hos mig fredag

 og dejlig middag hos gode venner lørdag,

 er det tid for endnu et fødselsdagskort.

'Tilda with lace jeans', hedder dette søde stempel fra Magnolia.

Og sammen med papirer fra Maja Design-som jeg har haft i en 

evighed- udgør det min creation i dag.

Kortet er holdt i brune og blålige farver, en flot kombination.

Blomsten er fra HobbyHimmelen og båndet fra Søstrene Greene.

Bladene er punchet ud.

Tekststemplerne er fra  Whimsy Stamps.

Jeg havde ikke nok papir til at lave bagsiden lige som

forsiden, men hjørnet af arket havde disse flotte blomster.

Tirsdag har jeg meldt mig på et kursus i  stempling

 og fargelegging med distress på HobbyHimmelen.

Det er Henriette som holder kurset.

Jeg glæder mig rigtig meget for Henriette 

er utrolig dygtig- og hyggelig.

Jeg har brugt sketchen fra Midweek Magnolias.

Santa is Comming, A DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge.

It's time for a new ABC Christmas Challenge, but before I come 
to that, I want to thank those of you who played along with 
our R for  Recycle challenge. 
I had a great time visiting your blogs. 

You are going to have a peek in our challenge blog to 
see if you are one of last week's winners. 

Unfortunately,there was a few entries who

didn't follow the challenge theme. 

Remember your cards/projects

have to be Christmas related.

After all we are a Christmas Challenge.

This time Carissa is the host with a theme of:

S for Santa Claus is comming to town.

So we want you to use an image of Santa, some one dressed
in a Santa hat or mention Santa somewhere on your creatione.

For my card I have used an image from Whif of Joy.

One of our fabulous sponsors are our own 
Lacey from Stamp and Create.

I couldn't find this old Santa image in the store,
 but Stamp and Create carries

a lot of other wonderful WOJ images.

 

The papers I have used are from My Mind's Eye.

They are wonderful.

The poinsetta is made with a Magnolia Doohickey die.

I think it's the first time I use it, but definitely not the last!

The ticket sentiment is from Whimsey Stamps, and the

swirl is made with a die, I can't remember where it's from.

A Santa charm, lot of Stickles, some twisted

 rough hemp string in two colours,

and distressed edges all over.

That's my card for today!

The back looks the way it usually does more or less.

I have used the sketch from Whiff of Joy.

We are so lucky having two sponsors for this challenge:

Bugaboo Stamps

 with the prize of:

Stamp and Create

with a $25 gift certificate.

Let's be Friends, DT card for HM&FMC.

Once again it's Monday; a new week with new possibilities!

I hope you all have had a lovely weekend wherever you are.

Mine was fantastic, we went to Amsterdam,
celebrating a good friend turning 50.
We had some lovely meals together,
with laughter and wine.
Saturday evening we went to the celebration party and
met my friend's family and friends from Holland

We all had a great time.
So my dear friend(s), thanks!


One advice for you, check your passport some weeks
in advance. I didn't and it gave us a lot of stress!


Todays post is a midway card for the ongoing challenge at
House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge.

Tracy is hosting and the theme is:

Friendship!

Use something on your creation that
means friendship to you.

And remember, you have to use a House Mouse,
Happy Hopper or Gruffie to join in.

My image is called 'Tin Can Shower',
you can find it here in the Simon Says Stamp.
I hope those two are friends helping together, otherwise...

The beautiful papers in blue and green are from Little Yellow Bicycle.

I have added blue Stickles on to the water, and a lot of Glossy Accent
to the tin can. I'm not so sure if you can see it on the pic.

The sentiment is saying 'Friends makes the world a better place'.
And they for sure do.

For the back side I have made a special 'Made By' .
I have masked together some little feet
with my 'Made By' stamp.

Our two sponsors are:


Simon Says Stamp

Smukke Tilda nyder efteråret.

Jeg tror jeg er inde i en stime af Magnolia kort,
her er 'Tilda with Daisy', hun har fået en nydelig papir kjole på
for at passe til mønsterpapiret.

Mønsterpapiret er gammelt, hedder 'Indian Summer' og er fra Basic Grey.

Min DT kompis Natascha havde lavet dette flotte banner
på sidste DT kort for HM&FMC. Jeg var nødt til at kopiere ideen.

Spørgsmålet er vel hvordan det ser ud efter en omgang hos Posten !

På kortet ellers er der brugt en embossing folder fra Cuttlebug,
puncher fra Martha Stewart og blomster fra Kort og Godt.

Farverne i dag er ikke så fine, hvis jeg får tid
i morgen skal jeg se om jeg kan få taget nogle bedre.

Jeg har brugt denne sketch fra Duch Magnolia Lovers.

A pic of my recycled items.

In the beginning of this month we went to my nieces confirmation's party,

and the decoration from the napkins with me home.

A close up. Isn't she a darling?
