Pop It Up, Mid way reminder for HM&F.

Hello and happy Monday, we are halfway through

the ongoing challenge at House Mouse & Friends.

Our teamie Lori picked this week's challenge and it is

POP IT UP!

So here is what I created:

 

 Using the cute 'Have A Ball' image, I made a CAS Christmas card.
As you see it's a rather big image and you don't have
to use a lot of embellishments.

My 'Pop Up' element is all the ornaments, I have stamped them twice,
 cut them out and added them with foam adhesive.

The striped paper is from My Mind's Eye,
and the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

A side view.

 A CAS backside.

Thanks for looking, the DT have all made gorgeous cards for your inspiration 

so hop on over to the HM&F Monday Challenge to see them.

We hope you will play along and cant wait to see your POP IT UP entries entries!

Julekort uge 17.

Ja jeg ved det, jeg er bagefter med mine julekort.

Men jeg kan jo bare prøve at bedre på det.

I sidste uge til vores H for Home udfordring hos ABC Christmas Challenge,

farvede jeg to LOTV motiver når jeg var igang.

Og her er resultatet.

Kortet ligner til forveksling dette her, og faktisk er det samme 

 mønsterpapir fra Maja Design bare at dette er bagsiden.

På kanten af motivet har jeg stemplet med et poststempel fra Magnolia,

jeg tror det er første gang jeg har brugt det. Jeg er ikke særlig god 

til at stemple 'sådan lidt tilfældigt'.

Det stribede bånd er fra Stoff og Stil, og egentlig købt til årets drengekonfirmationskort. 

Men det passede jo perfekt her også.

Udfordringer:

• Incy Wincy Designs Challenge- Furry Friends
• Everybody-Art-Challenge- 275 Cute Card
• CI- #262 Cute Characters
• Simon Says- CAS
• Hanna and Friends- #195 Lieblingsfarben
• Crafty Little Fairies- Furry Friends

Pop it up, DT card for HM&F.

I hope you have enjoyed some days off,
we have had the most lovely weather where I live.

House Mouse & Friends are ready with a brand
new challenge for you. This time Lori has choosen the theme
and she wants you to

POP IT UP !

 Please also remember that your project must feature stamps by House-Mouse Designs^(R). You can choose any House-Mouse & Friends, Gruffies, Happy Hoppers stamps, or the HMD CD Collection images or even HMD Decoupage. Just have FUN.

For my card I have used this super cute stamp,
called 'Don't Crack Under Pressure'.

I have stamped the image twice, and cut out the eggs
and  added them with foam adhesive to make them pop up.

The papers are from Bo Bunny, love the colours.

Flowers, brads and ribbon are from my stash.

Here a side view of the card, I don't know if you are able to se the 'popping parts'.

A simple backside, some dp and my personal stamp.

'Spring' kort!

Ja som overskriften siger kan man vel kalde det her et 'Spring' kort.

Både hvad angår farver og aktivitet.

Vi nyder påsken og det fine vejr.

Det er dejligt med et par fridage hvor skuldrene kommer ned på plads.

 Med mig på påskeferie kom også begyndelsen på dette kort.

Motivet 'Spring Bunny with Daffodils' fra LOTV var farvelagt med mine 

prismas og papiret var fundet frem og matchet.

Men vel fremme fandt jeg ud af at jeg ikke havde husket alt,

ingen blomster, perler, bling, charms; ikke særlig velovervejet!

Derfor blev kortet enkelt og temmelig fladt!

Men lidt sødt aligevel synes jeg.

Det er et easelkort med plads til en stor tag i bunden af kortet.

Den laver jeg når jeg kommer hjem!

Ellers står den på ski og hygge, og så har jeg planer

om at få farvelagt nogle motiver. Jeg er blevet rigtig glad for 

at bruge  mine Prismacolor Pencils, og havde planer om

at supplere mit sæt på 72 blyanter. Men nu viser det

sig at den netbutik i England som jeg havde tænkt mig at 

handle i skal lukke og havde udsolgt at det meste.

Så nu starter den vilde jagt igen, øv.

Ønsker jer alle en rigtig god påske.

and added some Stickles on to the image.

and decorated with a button and some string.

And the blue paper is from Maja Design.

Konfirmationskort.

Vi har konfirmation i år, og det betyder at der

er brug for kort til de nærmeste venner.

Jeg er også i gang med nogle hemmelige projekter,

de kommer på bloggen når vi er på den anden side at 10 maj.

Efterhånden har jeg lært at ikke alle kort behøver at

være forskellige, de skal jo ikke samme sted hen.

Derfor har jeg i år lavet kortene ens to og to, 

men i forskellige farver.

Papiret er fra Papirdesign, det på det øverste kort

har jeg også brugt til de indbydelser vi har sendt ud.

Inden i har jeg brugt det sædvanlige stempel som

jeg næsten altid bruger som tekst til konfirmanterne.

Det er fra Stempelglede.

Der er plads til en pengeseddel ind i sprækken.

 

 Helt enkel bagside. Jeg ser nu at kortene havde været

'tøffere' hvis jeg havde distresset kanterne,

det blev næsten lidt for pænt og pynteligt.

Udfordringer:

• Allsorts Challenge  Blog- Week 253 No Flowers
• Ett Trykk- Stjerner
• Card and Scrap- # 73 Konfirmation, Bryllup eller Baby

 

Flowers and Flourishes, DT card for Hm&FMC.

 I'm here with my card for House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge.

Our super lovely Teamie, Kelly Smith is hosting and has chosen the theme;

 
~ Flowers and Flourishes ~

Here is what I came up with.

No design paper today, I was tempted to use  'Fika' from Maja Design, 

but I decided you deserve  a break from them.

Instead I embossed the background with a folder from

Cuttlebug called 'Floral Screen'.

Together with this cute 'Take Time To Smell The Flowers'

it's my take on today's 'Flowers and Flourishes' challenge.

 

I have used this sketch from Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge.
