Til Lillepigen!

Er man lille når man bliver 3 år?

Svarene er nok forskellige eftersom hvem man spør.

Men hvis man har kendt Lillepigens mor altid- sådan som jeg er så heldig at ha-

så er 3 år ingen alder!

Dagens kort er, som I nok har gættet, et fødselsdagskort.

Stemplet er fra LOTV, 'Bear and Butterflies' hedder det, du finder det her.

Lilla er altså en af mine yndlingsfarver; flot 

og nem at ha med at gøre.

I dag er papirene dog IKKE fra Maja Design som de plejer, 

men fra Papermania. Men flotte for det.

Jeg har fundet ud af at jeg har dille på sommerfugle,

ikke det at jeg bruger dem så meget, men hvis jeg kikker

i mine gemmer finder jeg ikke mindre end 4 sommerfugle puncher,

et die sæt fra Die Namics og et die sæt sæt med tilhørende

 embossingfolder fra Cuttlebug!!

Det er ikke let at beherske sig.

Dagens sommerfugle er punchet i papir og vellum.

Ellers er der pyntet med bånd og perler.

Inden i er der pyntet helt enkelt med sommerfugl (!)

og en 'Happy Birthday' remse der er punchet ud.

Bagsiden næsten som forsiden.

SE den lilla blomst ved siden af kortet.

Jeg tror det er ???? (troede der var Have Timian,

men Googlede og fandt ud at at det vist ikke passede)

 

Jeg har brugt denne sketch fra The Sketchy Challenge.

Jeg kommer ikke så meget rundt hos jer for tiden,

og der kommer heller ikke så meget nyt på bloggen.

Jeg håber jeg kan bedre på det når jeg om et par uger går i ferie.

Jeg er ved at lave de kort jeg skal bruge i juli måned, både 

de kort jeg skal  ha sendt til familie og venner og dem som er til de

udfordringsblogger jeg er med i.

Og så er der lige en have som råber på en kærlig hånd.

M for Men or Mice, DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge.

Hello crafters, I hope you are enjoying summer time

wherever you are in the world.

At the ABC Christmas Challenge we are up to the letter M,

I'm today's lucky host, and those of you who sometimes

visits my blog knows by now that I'm addicted to 

those small critters from House Mouse.

Therefore M is for:

Men Or Mice !

For me the choise was clear, no men but mice!

I have used the House Mouse image called 'Holly Sailing'.

Sweet and easy to colour. I have added a lot of Stickles on as snow.

The snowflakes in the corners are made with 

a die from Memory Box, it's so pretty, I use it a lot.

The papers are from Maja Design, my favourite company

and in my favourite colours, blue and white.

The backside with some of the elements from the front,

as always, and of course my personal stamp.

I have used  sketch #244 from Sketch Saturday for my card.

.:Drengestudenterkort:.

Så var det drengenes tur til at få vist sine studenterkort.

I sidste udgave at 'Ett Trykk' var der bla et kort med nogle fine

foldede kortærmede sommerskjorter.

Jeg var bare nødt til at prøve at folde min egen lille skjorte,

og med god hjælp af  'How To' anvisningen i bladet  og den yngste af 

mine dreng- ('Mor du gør da bare sådan her! Det er da nemt') - fik jeg det til.

Jeg havde lidt problemer ned ærmefolden, og får stadigvæk

en 'Ahaaa' følelse hvergang det lykkes.

Et tips er at bruge tyndt papir, det giver finest folder.

Jeg har brugt en mix af  Basic Grey- det prikkede- og 7 Gypsies.
Basic Grey papiret er nok lige tykt nok, men det gik.

Jeg har brugt små brads som knapper på denne skjorte,

og perler på den anden. Man kunne også bare markere med en tuch.

Begge drengekort, de er da fine, ikke? 

Og så kunne jeg ikke modstå at bruge det tekststempel, lidt frækt men sandt.

Bagsiden er som den plejer, der gik sport i at få

papiret til at passe sammen i mønstret!

.:Studenterkort:.

Vores ældste er færdig med Gymnasiet i disse dage,
eller Videregående som det hedder i Norge.

Måden man fejrer på her, er anderledes- og ikke så højtidelige som jeg er vant til.

Men kort og rose skal de unge ha', og kortet er selvfølgelig hjemmelavet!

I dag viser jeg pigekort.

Modellen ser sådan ud.

En Memory Box die- som er fra min heftige

shopping-runde i Stavanger sidste weekend-

og noget papir fra Basic Grey som jeg har haft i evigheder.

Tekststemplet er fra Kreativ Hobby.

Tre kort til tre dejlige piger i vennekredsen.

To af kortene har brads på, et har perler,

jeg var nødt til at ta af det som passede i farverne!

Normalt laver jeg ikke ens kort, men på den anden side

behøver man jo ikke opfinde krudtet på nyt hvergang!

Helt enkel bagside på kortene.

Anything Goes with a Charm, DT card for HM&FMC.

Happy Monday folks welcome to our House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge

We hope you'll enjoy the new chall theme of

ANYTHING GOES WITH A CHARM!

All you need to enter our challenge  is a House Mouse, Happy Hopper or 

Gruffie image, and a charm .. thats it simple.

One of my favourite uncles- in fact I only have three and they are all my favourite-

is turns 80 years next month. If you met him, you'll never believe it!

He owns a Harley Davidson motorbike, and loves to drive around,

when he dosen't fix it on his workshop!

So for his birthday he is going to have this card, and the
Gruffie Bear image called 'Honey on the run' is so very perfect for him.

I did not have any suitable sentiment for him, therefore I made him this

speed limit sign, with the words 'Congratulations' and '80 years'

I felt super creative making it!!

I was so inspired by the sketch Sue Kment

used for this card, that I had to make my own.

The background is embossed with a 'Happy Birthday' embossing folder,

and the papers I have used are from Eco Park.

A close up on the sign, made with round Spellbinders Dies and a number die.

The back of the card with my personal stamp.

L for..... DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge.

Welcome to a new biweekly challenge at 

ABC Christmas Challenge.

This time Lorraine is our host and the theme is

 L for Give us a Laugh Or Less is More !

  If you go with the 'Give us a laugh' you can use a funny image or sentiment...

Krista our sponsor for this challenge has kindly given the
team some images to play with, thanks a lot, Krista.

The image I have chosen is 'Snow Blower' from Saturated Canary.
 A real cutie.

Is comes with 3 different sentiments.

 The papers comes from Bo Bunny, 'Snowfall' they are called.

Blue and brown is a pretty colour combination
and easy to use for a Christmas card.

I have stamped some snowflakes around the image
with a Magnolia stamp.
I'm now sure if I like it or not.

I'm not good on 'random'!

My backside is like this today- as always-
nothing new here!!

I have used this sketch from Sweet Stampin' Challenge Blog.
I had to flip it, hope it's OK.

Our sponsor for the L challenge is Krista Smith from Saturated Canary.

Krista is giving a lucky random winner 2 Digi images from her lovely Etsy Shop.

Father's Day/ Male card, A MW card for HM&FMC

Hello, it's Monday again, it comes round so quickly. 

I hope you’re all OK and have had a lovely weekend.

It is time for the midway reminder for our ongoing challenge at the

House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge. 

This time it was our lovely Scoopy's turn to choose the theme and she chose:

 "For A Male"
 

I have used this Gruffie image for the first time.

It's called 'Attack of the Coffee'.

The papers are some old ones from Basic Grey,

'Boxer' they are called. To keep to the office look

I used a border punch from Fiskars and some clips.

The backside is the front in miniature.
