🌈 Somewhere over the Rainbow 💗

Det er veldig enkelt å male regnbuefargede ord med distressinks ~ favoritt mediumet mitt ~ spesielt om man bruker akvarellpapir! Jeg valgte meg 5 blekkputer og malte dem 'inn i hverandre' slik at jeg fikk alle regnbuens farger på arket før jeg trykket ut bokstavene 💗

It's very easy to make rainbow colored words if you got some distressinks ~ my favourite medium ~ and especially if you use watercolorpaper too! I picked out 5 inkpads and painted them 'into eachother' so that i got all the rainbow colors on the paper before i diecut the letters 💗

Nautical Confirmation day ⚓

Til våren har søskenbarnet mitt konfirmasjon, og jeg har fått oppgaven å lage bordkort, invitasjoner og takkekort, noe jeg jo gjør med glede ♥ Lagde disse to bordkortene som de skal velge et av ~ og jeg håper på kamera versjonen selv om det blir merjobb til meg x 30 lol 😅
Motivet av båten har vært min inspirasjon og jeg gikk for et maritimt tema. Gutten har faktisk selv lagd tegningen av familiens båt! Så talentfull 💗

Bordkortene er mitt DT inspirasjons bidrag for Creative Fingers utfordring #248. Vår DT Angelique er sponsor denne gang med en flott premie, og som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema. Velkommen skal du være! 😊

Confirmation day tablecards for my cousin. I have been asked to make invitations and thank you cards, with tablecards for the party, and I'm very happy to do so! Made theese two samples for them to pick from.. i know wich one would be my pick.. the camera absolutely, although more work for me, as I will be making 30 of them lol 😅
The motif of the boat has been my inspiration for a nautical theme. The boy actually drew the boat himself! Amazing talent 💗

The tablecards are my DT inspiration for challenge #248. at Creative Fingers. Our DT Angelique is sponsoring with an sweet prize. As always, theme is anything goes, and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 😊

Beautiful Blooms 🌸

Litt seint ute igjen.. Mista Mojo'en! Og har verkende hender... Så det ble ganske enkelt, å lage en ramme i kortbasen og putte motivet bak er mitt 'go-to' løsning når jeg ikke har noen idéer om type kort design! 🤔 💡

Jeg har brukt et blomstermotiv fra 'Flower Fun Colouring Pages' på mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #247. som denne gang er sponset av vår DT Anne Constantly-Carding! Hun selger digitale kits / ark pakker gjennom CraftsUPrint, og gir bort tre flotte digikits som premie. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være! 💗 Vi har også blogget våre heldige x-mas blogcandy vinnere! 😊

 

 

A little bit late.. again.. lost my mojo! And my handjoints hurts... So this is quite an easy card, diecut frame in the cardbase, and the motif put behind it. My 'go-to' solution when i have no ideas of a card design! 🤔 💡

My card is DT inspiration for this fortnights challenge #247. at Creative Fingers and has a floral motif from the 'Flower Fun Colouring Pages' by our sponsor (who is also one of my fellow DT's) Anne Constantly-Carding! She's selling beautiful digital kits & paperpacks through CraftsUPrint, and three of the kits that the DT's has showcased this time will be the prize! As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 💗 Also, did you see we announced our xmas blogcandy winners? 😊
