Har brukt et Whimsy Stamps die-set med flotte sopper på dette kortet, som jeg lagde på Bikubens online høst treff og i farta glemte av en liten alv jeg kuttet ut med en die fra samme sett (bare forestill deg en alv der lol har lagd kort tidligere med dem her), skal prøve å huske å lime den på neste gang jeg er på scrapperommet (om jeg finner den i alt rotet)..🤭
Kortet er mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #265. Jeg er sponsor denne gangen og du kan vinne 3x digistempler om du deltar på utfordringen! Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være! 😊 🍄 💗

Som jeg ofte gjør desverre, ble det noe sent lagt inn ~ men denne gangen har jeg en veldig artig grunn for å ha mye vondter og være sliten! Hadde jo tenkt å bli ferdig til før helga kom, men så sa det bare poff og jeg hadde null energi igjen til å legge ut dette DT bidraget, og mitt andre blogginnlegg ~ BloggCandy! Masse scrappeting og tang man kan vinne, OG det er i tillegg et freebie 'thank you' digistempel som jeg har lagd nå som takk for titten! Det er på engelsk da ... Så jeg gir også bort disse to drodle ordene som jeg tegnet for mange år siden ~ Takk & Gratulerer ~ og du kan finne bloggcandyen her: 500K Celebration Blogcandy.

[NORWEGIAN WORDART DIGISTAMP FREEBIES]
Disse to digistemplene er til fritt bruk ~ kan også deles og endres ~ det er ikke nødvendig, men gi gjerne credit til meg, Digi Doodle Stamps by Tindaloo ~ om du bruker dem. Åpne bildene ved å klikke på dem, deretter høyreklikk og lagre på din pc/dings.

On my card I have used a set of dies by Whimsy Stamps, with theese supercute chubby mushrooms! I forgot to add the fairy i had cut out from the same set during the hoopla of the online scrapmeet i was at when i made this.. just imagine one of the fairies sittin on a shroom or flying by.. (like on this card i made once with the same set, here) ~ i will try and remember to glue it on next time i craft .. (if i can find it in all my mess..) 🤭

My card is DT project for this fortnights challenge #265. at Creative Fingers. I'm sponsoring this time, giving away 3 x digistamps as a prize. As always it is an 'Anything goes theme' at CF, and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 😊 🍄 💗

So i been knocked out most of the weekend... but now its there!

Autumn tags 🍂

 
Var med på Bikubens Høst-scrapp online treff, og avtalte og bytte tag med en dame der i etterkant. Lagde disse tre høst-inspirerte tags/bokmerker og hun fikk den til høyre i posten, og jeg fikk en flott tag i retur fra henne. 🦉 Min mor fikk den med ugla ~ for hun er min uglemamma, omsorgsfull og heftig beskytter av sine egne og andres barn.. og så beholdt jeg den i midten selv! 😊
De er mine inspirasjons bidrag for Creative Fingers utfordring #264. Vi har fått ett nytt kreativt DT medlem, og 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! 💗 

 

and back of the tags

 

When I was at an online crop by Bikuben recently, we arranged to make and do Tags swaps with eachother after the event. I made three autumn themed tags/bookmarks and sent the one on the right to a crafty lady and got a lovely tag from her in return. 🦉 My mum got the owl tag because she's my 'owl mother' ~ fierce protector and caregiver of her children and even others children ... and i kept the one in the middle for myself. 😊
They're DT creation for this fortnights challenge #264. at Creative Fingers. We have a new creative DT member! Yay! And our DT Angelique is sponsoring with a fab die set! As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 💗
