I appreciate you all so very much! 💗  I love making cards and hopefully inspire others by posting on my blog and as DT at Creative Fingers, and doing the occasional blogcandies to brighten someones day. It is also a way of apologizing for not beeing able to comment as much or beeing as present online as I wish to be, due to my health. I truly wish I could send out a blogcandy to everyone!

Just swingin' by to say...

Jeg er med i en gruppe på facebook som heter 'Hero Art Kits Fanatics', og vi har hatt en såkalt 'birthday card exchange' der vi sendte et bursdagskort til hverandre, uten tekst inni ~ for gjenbruk! Dette var kortet mitt til Rosie ~ med tre morsomme apekatter ♥

Creative Fingers utfordring #200. feirer vi med en Bloggcandy, sponset av meg selv ~ som du kan finne her: Creative Fingers BlogCandy! Eller klikk på det rosa candy bildet til høyre. Og det er enda en mulighet til å vinne det søte Gorjuss stemplet i en bloggcandy her på min egen blogg også! Klikk her eller på det blå candy bildet til høyre i bloggen.

Vi blir sponset av vår egen DT Angelique, med et flott Flag banner die-sett! Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)

 

 

I'm in a facebook group called 'Hero Arts Kit Fanatics' where we made a birthdaycard (no message inside, just a removable personal note, to allow for paying it forward ~ which is a great idea!) for another person. I made this one with three cute little monkeys for Rosie ♥ 

We are celebrating reaching our challenge #200. over at Creative Fingers, with a seperate BlogCandy post which you can find here, or click on the pink candy image on my sidebar. I have a BlogCandy on my blog too for a second chance to win that sweet gorjuss rubberstamp! Click here or on the sidebar blue candy image to go there to enter.

We're sponsored by our own DT Angelique this time with a gorgeous clearstamp set. As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations :)

Tindaloo's Gorjuss BlogCandy!

 

If you didn't know already, there is a gorjuss blogcandy right now over on the Creative Fingers Challengblog! We're celebrating reaching our #200. challenge! I have been a part of the CF designteam since challenge #15. ..Imagine that, all the way back to 2013, when I wrote about joining the team in this blogpost, also mentioning that I had just rounded 40.000 unique visitors on my blog ~ now the count is way past 370.000 unique visitors ~ much thanks to beeing on a designteam I reckon! (If I shall believe blogger.. I think they do count the spam bots as well so.. oh well, LOL!) I am truly grateful to all the crafty peeps who stop by my blog. Have a Happy Creative and Healthy New Year 😊

Man's Best Friend!

 

Godt Nyttår! Har fremdeles ikke fått reparert godstolen min, så det har vært lite tid på scrapperommet, og begrenset hvor mye blogging jeg gjør, og når jeg lager noe tar det ekstra lang tid.. så derfor har det vært litt stille herfra ♥ Gleder meg så masse til den kommer, har mange morsomme prosjekter planlagt!

Penny Black har noen av de absolutt søteste dyrestemplene som fins! Har kjempemange gamle gummistempler og clearstampsett som jeg burde bruke mere! Kortet mitt idag er DT inspirasjon for årets første utfordring hos Creative Fingers #199.

Vi blir sponset av vår egen DT Angelique, med et flott clearstamps-sett! Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være ♥

 

 

Happy New Year! I still haven't gotten my good chair back from repair for my craftroom, so it's been a bit quiet from me. Don't spend long time in the craftroom at a time, so making a card takes me such a long long time it's exchausting to create... Looking forward to getting in the groove again!

Penny Black has some of the most adorable animalstamps out there, and I have so many of them, both old rubbers and clearstamp sets that needs to be used more :) My card is DT inspiration for the first challenge of the year #199. at Creative Fingers.

We're sponsored by our own DT Angelique this time with a gorgeous clearstamp set. As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations ♥
