Saturated Canary and Make it Crafty...

Hi there crafting friends!
 
It´s not as frequent here in the blog as usual, I´ve given my self a little christmas 'vacation'. LOL.
Im crafting and coloring every day, but not blogging as much as I use too.
But be patient (!) it´s a short vacation. I´ll be back in full swing in a week again!
 
Today comes a little inspiration from me, using the wonderful Krista image released from Make it Crafty.
Love this digi image! The hair is amazing, and so much fun to color.
 
 
I´ve made an Easel-card, using one of my Spellbinder dies.
Together with papers from Inkido, doilys and lots of Pearlmaker.
Flowers are from WOC.
 
 
A little close up on the Friendly sentiment from Stampavie.
 
 
The image is colored with Copics:
Skin: E13-11-21-00-000
Cheeks: R22-11
Lips: R83-E04
Hair: E18-15-13-11
Dress: V95-93-91
 
Im also working on some video tut´s coloring with copics.
Im hoping on getting them all done now when Im having my little 'vacation'.
Hope you will appreciate them.
 
See you soon again!
And Thank You for stopping by!
 
Im participating in the following challnge:
 

A challenge / En utmaning...

Hi there crafty friends / Hejsan alla pysslande vänner!
 
 
Igår kväll vad jag med i en utmaning på en sida på Facebook som heter "En kväll - En utmaning".
Jättemysigt koncept, men jag har aldrig haft chansen att vara med på någon tidigare.
Men jul ledig som jag är, plus att det var Åsa som höll i utmaningen, så tog jag chansen och var med och skapade ett kort. :0)
 
******
 
Last night I participatet in a challenge on Facebook in a goroup called "One night - One challenge".
A really nice concept, but I haven´t had the chance to enter any challenge so far.
But this time I did, having Christmas Holiday and the fact that it was a crafting friend (Åsa) that held the challenge made me feel really inspired. :0)
 
 
Temat var rött, snöre, tag och text, och med knorren Hjärtan.
 
Jag passade på att göra något som inte hade temat Jul,
även om det också hade fungerat bra.
 
******
 
The theme was red, string, tag and sentiment, and with the extra addition of Hearts.
 
I choosed to do something other then Christmas theme,
though it could work fine too.
 
 
Stämpeln är från Saturated Canary och är färglagt med Copics.
 
Min Copics samling består mestadels av Sketch pennor.
Anledningen till det är många, dels för att de innehåller mer bläck redan från början, dels för att de finns i alla färgerna, men framförallt för att jag tycker de är skönare att hålla i, vilket gör färgläggningen lättare.
 
Jag har givetvis en hel del Ciao också.
De är perfekt att testa med i början, eftersom de är billigare att köpa och har precis samma kvalitéer som Sketch i övrigt. Det som kan vara bra att tänka på är att, eftersom de endast finns i ett mindre urval av färger, så kan det vara svårt att hitta färgkombinationer som passar bra ihop.
 
Ett av mina mål under jul ledigheten är att lägga till lite olika Nybörjar tips för Copics här på bloggen.
Så håll gärna lite utkik! :0)
 
Är det några frågor så maila annars!
Jag tipsar gärna.
 
******
 
The image is from Saturated Canary and is colored with Copics.
 
Under my Christmas Holiday my goal is to add some usefull Basic Copic Tips here on my blog.
But if there is any questions, don´t hasitate to email me!
I try to answer all questions. LOL
 
 
Ha en underbar Dan Före Dan!
 
Have a wonderful Christmas!

Distress Markers for Scrap-Perra...

*** IF YOU ARE HERE FOR SOME ODD GIRLS BLOG HOP, PLEASE SCROLL DOWN ***
 
Hi there!
 
This wekeend I´ve participated at Scrap-Perras lovely Christmas Craft Event.
At the event I did a demonstration on how I use and color with Distress Markers.
Just giving some tips and showing how I do.
 
Here comes the two images I colored:
 
  
I´ve used almost the same colors, but colored the first one a little darker. Just to show the difference it can make for the image.
  
And here comes the finished card.
  
 
I used papers from wonderfully Pion Designs For Mother.
Distressed the edges with Walnut Stain.
 
The shape of the card is made with dies from Spellbinder and Cherry Lynn.
 
The theme in Scrap-Perras Blog all December is flowers!
So I´ve tryed to add as many different ones on the card as posible. LOL
Maybee I wen´t a little crazy with this one. He, he.
  
A close up on the lovely image from Magnolia.

Gästalster för Momas lil´shop of stamps...

Hoppas ni har haft en underbar helg!
 
För ett tag sedan fick jag frågan från Monika på Momas lil´shop of stamps om jag ville göra ett par gästalster med hennes underbara blommor. Och vem kan säga nej till att få skapa med sådana vackra skapelser?!
 
 
Så här kommer mitt första alster:
 
 
Jag färglägger ju mestadels figurer/människor så det här var ett trevligt avbrott från det vanliga.
 
Papper från MME, tillsammans med satin band och doliy från Cherry Lynn.
Ramen runt motivet är från Spellbinders.
 
 
Blommorna är färglagda med Copics på Prefect Colouring Paper (250 gr).
 
Smit över till Momas och kolla in alla fantastiskt söta stämplar.
De flesta finns både som digisar och vanliga stämplar.
 
Ha en skön Söndag kväll!
