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!
 

Christmas with Some Odd Girl...

Hi there peeps!
Late Friday blogging today. I know - finally Friday! Yay!!
 
I was packing all my crafting stuff ´cause Im off to an crafting event tomorrow, and I thought - hey, why don´t make a card at the same time... Do I have to say that my packing took ages... Tihi!
 
 
I wanted to do something different so I went with coloring my image black and white.
 
All the papers are from Pion Design, distressed with Walnut Stain around the edges.
Flowers from WOC and Prima.
The tag is from Magnolia and the frame around the image is from Spellbinders.
 
 
Wonderful Mae from Some Odd Girl is colored with my precious Copics:
 
Clothes/Hair: C7-5-3-1
Skin/Hood: W7-5-3-1-0
Fluff: B02-00-C1
 
And then it´s lots of Glimmer Glam on the fluff, but it´s hard to show on the pictures.
 
Im entering the following challenges:
 
Have a wonderful crafty wekeend!
 
 

A blue Christmas Bag...

Well, it´s time for another Friday again!
Best day of the week! LOL
 
Today Im showing you a little Christmas bag with one of the new Christmas Magnolias.
 
 
I love making these bags, in any kind of shape or for any kind of reason.
 
 
Papers are from Maja Design, combined with doileys, jute and beige/kraft CS.
Flowers, Chipboard, Glitter and lots of distressing.
And some pearlmaker-dots to match up.
 
 
I´ve kept the back and the closing of the bag clean and simple, but in the same style as the rest of the bag.
 
 
The wonderful Magnolia is clored with the following copics:
 
Skin: E53-11-21-00-000
Cheeks: R32-11
Hair: E29-25-21
Blue: B99-97-95-12
Shadow: E71-W3-1

Shabby Chic Christmas at Copic Marker Norway...

In the beginning of this week I did my first step to (hopefully) getting a ECCP-degree.
The nearest place to do that Program is in Norway.
It´s a rather long (and quite expensive) journey for me, but what don´t you do for this hobby...?! LOL
 
It was a fantastic and inspirational evening, and I was so well taken care of from all the sweet Norwegians!
Well, I don´t know if I actually met a Norwegian not being sweet and helpful... :0)
Thanks a ton girls!
So looking forward to the next time.
 
Anyway, getting inspired by all those wonderful and talented ladies I just had to participate in Copic Marker Norways Challenge - Shabby Chic Christmas.
 
 
For this one I´ve used my favourite image from the latest Christmas release from Magnolia.
 
 
I know, I used it earlier this week too. LOL But she is so much fun to color!
And I just love the hair! Don´t you!?
 
This time I colored her a little different though, cause I wanted more dept and contrast compared to the one earlier this week.
 
 
Papers are from Pion and Maja Design.
All edges are distressed with Walnut stain.
The corrugated paper are painted with Gesso.
Flowers from WOC and dies from Magnolia and Spellbinders.
 
 
She is colored with the following Copics:
 Skin: E11-21-00-000
Cheeks: R22-R05-R11
Hair: E29-25-21
Blue: B99-95-12
Beige: E57-53-50
Shadows: E71-W3-W1
 
I hope you like it!
 
Have a wonderful wekeend and see you soon again!
 
Im also participating the following challenge with this card:
Deep Oceans Challenge - Sport & Outdoors
 

Sending some love...

Goodmorning everyone!
It's finally Saturday and an unscheduled wekeend!
Well, unscheduled was an overstatement, but the whole family is home. And that was a couple of weeks ago.
 
Today Im showing a 'just because' card with one of Make it Craftys wonderful images:
 
 
This card was actually made for a contest on a crafting event.
Ther was A LOT od do's and dont's for this one.
We all had to use tha same material, and nothing else.
And one of the challenges was that we had to use the chicken wire.
 
It was really fun challenge. And this is my take on it.
 
 
The image is colored with copics.
 
Hoping you all will have wonderful wekeend!
 
Im going to see my son's icehockey game and tonight we are having people over for dinner.
 
Hugs to you!
 

Gäst-DT hos Mollys Scrapbooking...

Förra månaden deltog jag i en tävling hos Mollys Scrapbooking, där priset var att få vara Gäst-DT en månad.
Och tro det eller ej, men jag vann en plats!!
Wihooo!
Ska bli sååå roligt att få vara med och gästa Lilo och hennes härliga och fantastiska DT-gäng.

Här kommer korten som jag deltog med i tävlingen:



Tävlingen gick ut på att skapa utifrån ett kit med material och La La Lands Ballerina stämpel.

Man fick i viss mån även lägga till eget material, men jag har nästan uteslutande använt mig av materialet i kitet.

Mitt första kort blev ett stafflikort som jag gjort med hjälp av mina Spellbinder-dies.

Färgerna går i lite softa rosa/beiga toner, med mycket distresser.



Nästa kort ville jag skulle 'poppa' lite mer, så här använde jag kontrasterna svart tillsammans med det rosa.


Båda motiven är färglagda med Promarkers på Letrasets 270 gr papper.


Tusen tack Lilo för att jag får chansen att vara med och gästa lite!

Ha det så bra! Ses snart igen!


Stafflikort med Vilda sköningar...

Idag kommer ett kort som jag gjorde på pysselträffen i Järfälla, 'Skapa med hjärtat'.
Ett stafflikort där jag maskat ihop den übersöta pojken och flickan från Vilda Stamps.

******

Today Im showing a card I´ve made on the big craft event in Stockholm.
I made a easelcard where I masked together the übercute little boy and girl from Vilda Stamps.



Jag har hållt det ganska enkelt och sparsamt dekorerat.



En närbild på motivet, färglagt med Promarkers på Letrasets 270 gr papper.



Jag deltar med detta kort i följande utmaningar:

Passion for Promarkers - Photoinspiration
I love Promarkers - Anything goes


Hoppas Ni får en fantastisk långhelg!


Tiddly Ink challenge...

Äntligen fredag!! Om jag längtat efter helgen den här veckan. Nåja, det är snart helg i alla fall. Bara en arbetsdag kvar...
Idag tänkte jag visa ett kort bara-för-att. Jag är så förtjust i Tiddly Inks 'enkla' och söta motiv. Och de är så roliga att färglägga. Här har jag valt att 'maska' ihop ett motiv, som jag kopierat och spegelvänt, tillsammans med ett hjärta och en text från datorn.

Sedan har jag skrivit ut på Letrasets 270 g Cartridge paper och färglagt.

******

Finally Friday!! I have been longing for the weekend all week. Oh well, it´s soon weekend anyway, just one more workday to get thruw.

Today Im showing you a card I´ve made 'just-because'. I love Tiddly Inks sweet and 'simple' images. They are such a joy to color. Here I have 'masked' together one image, who I have copyd and reversed, with a heart and a text I´ve made on the computer. And the I´ve printed it out on Letrasets 270 g Cartridge Paper.



Papper ifrån Melissa Frances och blommor från Wild Orchide Crafts.



Hur supersöta är inte dessa två!?

De är färglagda med Pro- & Flexmarkers.




Im entering Tiddly Inks Challenge - BFF (Best Friends Forever) with this card.


Ha en toppen helg! / Have a great weekend!


I was featured...

...on FABULOUS INKY FRIDAYS in the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog!

Im so, so, so happy for being choosen! Thank you girls, You´ve made my day. ;0)



Have a wonderful Friday!


Tiddly Inks Challenge...

Hi you all! Hope you all have a wonderful evening.
Today Im going to show you one of my new favourites, namely Tiddly Inks.
I 'found them' in talented Rimnas Blog.

They have many kinds of motifs (all digis) but I really fell in love with little Wryn.


******

Hej allihopa! Hoppas ni alla har en toppen helg!
Idag tänkte jag visa en ny toppfavorit av stämpeltillverkarna, nämligen Tiddly Inks.
Jag såg de första gången hos fantastiska Rimna, och nu florerar de på många ställen i bloggvärlden.

De har väldigt många olika stilar på motiven (bara diggistämplar), men jag blev tokförälskad i lilla Wryn.





Jag passar på att hänga på i färgutmaningen hos Tiddly Inks Challenges.

******

Im entering the color challenge at Tiddly Ink Challenges.



Jag har valt ett lite annorlunda format på kortet för omväxlingens skull.



Papper från October Afternoons Farmhouse. Hur ska jag överleva när dessa fantastiska papper är slut..?? ;0)

Jag har använt mina Cheery Lynn dies till kortet samt vimplarna och bladen.



Wryn är färglagd med Promarkers på Letraset Cartdidge Papers (270 gr).

Ha en skön lördag kväll. Nu ska jag plocka fram lilla godisskålen och krypa upp i soffan. :0)


Höst kort...

Idag blir det för ovanlighetens skull ett Magnolia kort. Det var längesen nu.

Ett murrigt höstkort med varma kramar.

******

Today, it is for once a Magnolia card. It was a long time ago.

A gloomy fall card sending warm hugs.



Jag har distressat alla kanter och runt motivet.

Alla dekorationerna har dessutom fått lite glittrande Glimmer Mist på sig.

******

I've distress all edges and around the image.

All the decorations also got some glistening Glimmer Mist on.



Motivet är färglagt med Promarkers på Letraset Cartridge Papers.

The image is coloured with Promarkers on Letraset Cartridge Papers.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!



:: some ODD kraft ::

Hope you all had a lovely weekend! I know I had. A little windy, but sunny.

Today Im showing something new for me. Coloring on Kraft-paper.
I´ve seen many lovely examples but I haven´t tried it  - until now.
Cute Card Thursday have a Color on Kraft-challenge this week, and they are sponsored by Some Odd Girl. The perfecf opportunity to take the chance and try it on...!



I used the sketsch over at Sketch Saturday when I did this card.
Love their sketches!



The papers are from MME and Maja Design.
I´ve distressed and sewed all around the edges.



The image is one of Some Odd Girls new clearstamps Loveletter Kaylee.

I colored her with Prisma Color Pencils and MCP. It was a long time ago I used them. I do love them, but my problem is that I only have a few colors and it makes it hard to get all the colors right. And to get that real dept in the image.

So - Im entering Cute Card Thursday and Sketch Saturdays Challenges with this card.


:: crafting gathering ::

I just had the most amazing weekend!
Me and some friends were on one of the nicest and most wonderful crafting gatherings that are around here!
It's amazingly organized with lots of good food, contests and sweepstakes with great prizes and above all all these wonderful people!

I made this card for one of the late night contests:



And can you belive - I won that contest! YAY! Uhm, well, there were actually five (!) of us sharing first prize..
But I am equally childishly happy about it anyway! *lol*



DP´s from Pink Paislee, I covered the edges with Distress Stickles, torned and distressed all the edges and around the motif. Then I´ve decorated with Prima flowers and leafs (lacquered with Glimmer Glam Chandelier), ribbons and finally some lace.

The digistamp is from Kenny K and is coloured with my Promarkers on Letraset 270 g paper.

Im entering this card to following challenges:

:: little cold kitty tia ::

I was surfing around for inspiration, as I normally do before I start crafting, and found a really nice challenge blog; Cute Card Thursday! I mean - what could be more cute than little SOGgie Tia!??

I immediately knew what I wanted to do!
This is so great with inspiration like this. The right challenge or card can set your imagination in the roll, and then your off...

Cute Card Thursday is celebratintg their 3 year anniversary so the theme for the challenge is to make a birthdaycard,  for a 3 year old. Lucky for me I actually got one 3 year old to celebrate really soon! :0)

So here comes my card:



I´ve made an easel card with lovely Cold Kitty Tia from Some ODD Girl!

All the papers are from Maja Design and I´ve taken a chipboard number and colored it with my Promarkers to make it fit. At last a little "splashing" with Distress Vintage Photo and it´s done!

Isn´t that cute, yay!
