An apple a day....a DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge

It's time for a new challenge at 

ABC Christmas Challenge.

We are up to the letter I and Lorraine is hosting this time.

'I' Is For I Love You/For A Loved One

You can use either a sentiment with 'love' in it,or an image of a couple or a card for
 a specific person/family member any of these options will do.

I have had this cute Magnolia stamp for a while, but it's the 

first time I ink it up. I can't really understand why- could the reason be

'To many stamps, so little time'??

Tilda is coloured with my Prismas.

The papers are from Maja Design , ribbon and bling are from my stash.

The tag sentiments are from LOTV.

At the backside a little 'Special made by Dorte', the apple basket masked

together with my personal round stamp.

I've used 'Confetti Rain' with sweet Amanda for the first time.

It's a large image and you do not need a lot of embellishments.

Super when you- like me- often make cards to send by mail. 

My card is similar to this card from June 2013.

The embossing folder I've used is from Cuttlebug,

Once again I've used a topper from LOTV for my card,

I find those snowmen from the coloured Art Pads really cute.

But it can be a bit tricky to find some matching papers

to go with them.

In the end I decided to use a 6x6 paper pad from Making Memories.

I'm happy with the way the card turned out.

My 'Happy Holiday' sentiment is from a Stampin Up set,

I think it's called 'Daily Phrases'

I've used this fab sketch from Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge,

such a sweet image.

The papers are some old ones from Basic Grey,

the colours are great for a masculine card.

The umbrella is paper pieced.

 The card look like this when you open it,

the card front is a little bit smaller than the back.

The sentiment means ' Great to have friends like you '.It's

stamped onto a cloud made by a die from Magnolia.

No special 'handmade by' at the backside today.

Only my ordinary personal stamp.

Tillykke med de 21!

For ikke så længe siden fejrede min store 'dreng' sin 21 års fødselsdag.

Kortet for anledningen er det selvfølgelig mig der står for.

 Jeg har lavet et kort næsten som dette her.

Stemplet er et gammelt et fra Magnolia, nok det

Edwin stempel jeg har brugt mest.

Tallene er et stempel fra Woodwear, som så er 

klippet ud i mønsterpapir fra Maja Design.

 Eftertænksomme Edwin fik glitter på sine vinger.

Som en lille gimmick fik Edwin et lille overskæg i dagens anledning.

Det er da på tide når man fylder 21.....

Salmonellafrie kyllinger.

God Påske til jer alle, håber I nyder det lige så meget som jeg gør.

Overskriften i dag kunne godt ha' været :'Og nu til noget helt andet',

for i modsætning til mine sædvanlige kort viser jeg i dag nogle

syede kyllinger jeg  har været i gang med her den sidste lille uges tid

Opskriften er fra Stof og Stil,  se under 'Små høns' der ligger mønstret som en PDF.

 

Her er de tre første, mit pilotproject kan man vel næsten sige.

Det er altså ikke så let at få 3 stk kyllinger til at vende fint samtidigt!

Jeg forsøgte at overbevise gemalen om at det at lave haler af ståltråd 

lige var noget for ham. Og joda, han gik i gang..... to stykker blev det til!

Tak for dem, thi hi.

 

Et sæt med røde blev det også til, og efter det nogle lilla, gule,

flere blå og røde...... I alt har jeg lavet 30 stk som nu  hænger lidt

 rundt forbi hos mine søstre, svigermor, svigerinde  og mine niecer.

Her er de som blev hos mig. 

Kyllingefarm next??

G for Glitter!




For my card I've used a topper from LOTV. The papers
with a lot of glitter on  are from My Minds's Eye.
My desk was filled with glitter after making this card.

More glitter on the image and on the edge,
the snowflake is punched out in glittery paper.

I do not know if you are able to see it.

The flowers are from my stash.

I've used this sketch # 68 from Papertake Weekly.
