Cherry Blossom ♥ card

Ja her i bloggen har det vært stille! Skal flytte snart og for tiden er hele huset et eneste kaos med pappesker overalt og rundtomkring... Har kastet masse på reno-vest, og sendt avgårde på brukthandelen, bøker og filmer og ditt & datt - og enda vises det nesten ikke! *hehe* Har nok akkumulert en del ting ja.. og må vel innrømme en viss samlemani! ;) Men det skal bli SÅ deilig når jeg endelig har dekorert og ordnet alt slik jeg vil ha det! Kommer nok til å gå mest i brunt, caffe latte, vaniljefarger og duse varme grønn-toner, og litt 'gammel' stil. Mye koseligere enn sånn modernistisk sort og hvite blanke flater *grøss*

Fikk litt tid å lage ett kort innimellom. 'Tenk Rosa' er utfordringen fra Scrap-Creations, og #38. hos Paper Sundaes var bare å finne noe nedi scrappe-stæsjet å bruke... det ble dette bling-hjertet som jeg ikke hadde klart å bruke før nå - det bare passet så godt inn! ♥

Long time - no bloggin'! :) I'm moving house, and have a hard time getting rid of stuff I've gathered through the years... too much sentimental reasons for me to keep things... and way to little space in my new house! *lol* But I'm SO looking forward to moving, I think I'll be very happy there - and yes, photos to come in a couple months!
I got some time to make this card - with a beautiful stamp by Elisabeth Bell for Susanas Custom Art & Card Design - SCACD Stamps. And I was thinking pink & love all the way with this - since the challenge at Scrap-Creations is to THINK PINK - with this month being Breast cancer Awareness month and all! ♥ And for Paper Sundaes #38. I rummaged through my stash and found some bling I've been hesitant to use.. when it's used it's gone, right? :)

What's this?

En av mine absolutte favorittfilmer er Nightmare before Christmas fra Tim Burton. Jeg har tilogmed en kjempestilig byste av Jack, og det fulgte med en nisselue jeg bruker putte på hodet hans innimellom, og når det er jul! ♥ Kjempeherlig film :)
Var så heldig og fant The Nightmare Before Christmas stempler hos Stamp it Crazy - og måtte selvfølgelig ha dem!!! Har ønsket meg sånne i flere år men aldri sett noen før nå :) Kortet mitt passer til utfordring #6. hos Lollipop Crafts - som er 'monstre og sånt'.


The most übercool movie ever! I luv the Nightmare before Christmas - and I probably got almost all of Tim Burtons dvd's - as well as my favourite decorative object in my livingroom - Jack Skellington himself! It even come with a little sandyclaws hat wich I put on him every now and then - and especially for xmas ;)

I've searched for rubbers with motifs from the movie for ages - but now I finally found them! Stamp it Crazy is the place to shop for Jack :) My card is entered in Lollipop Crafts challenge #6. Monsters & Such - but personally I think Jack is not much of a monster, he's just the most adorable skeleton I know & certainly unique! ♥

Stamps: Stamp it Crazy - Skellington graveyard & Jack Skulls. Queen Kat Stamps - Light up the night stamp set.
Papers: Black cardstock - 17x12 cm. DP Basic Grey - Black Tie 'Allegro'. Max Bringmann KG/Folia.de 'leder papier' (red leather paper).

Things with Wings!

Nok en ny utfordringsblogg - Simon Says Stamp and Show - denne tror jeg blir en gjenganger her! Kjempefin layout, ikke rotete regler og fargekræsj, eller vanskelig å finne frem på :) Den aller første utfordringen er temaet 'ting med vinger'. Her er mitt bidrag! ♥ med en av sugarnelliene mine..
Jippi! Now we have a pretty cool brand new challengeblog! The Simon Says Stamp and Show. Love the layout and clean fresh look... too many blogs with messy colors & difficult rules ;) So... For the big #1. The theme is 'Things with Wings'!

Unicorn Stenciled card!

Totally Stampalicious denne gang er det kun ett 'lag' papir - altså bilde/stemplet direkte på kortet! Absolutt ikke så enkel oppgave som det høres ut! Og ikke lov til max ett par små pynteting... Jikes! Jeg har aldri fått bruk for disse stencilene av enhjørninger før nå! Crafty Catz utfordring #45. er ganske enkelt 'Dyr', og fra da av var kortet unnagjort på noen få minutter - ikke inkludert tørketiden da.. ;)
...the worlds best friend...

Tough challenge this time at Totally Stampalicious - but I was determined to try! Quote: The card itself must be one layer and you may use one or two small embellishments such as ribbon, a flower or a brad! And I chose a Unicorn stencil since Crafty Catz' had one of my favourites themes to do #45. Animals!

Image: Stenciled from the 'Fun with Unicorns' stencil little activity book by Marty Noble & Dover Publications.
Paper:
Bazzill Corduroy
cardstock - wich I've spritzed generously with Walnut ink from Tsukineko, cherry blossom & walnut. As well as Tattered Angels glimmer mist 'Coffee shop'. The shimmer doesn't show well in the scan - but it's there :)
Embellishments:
Norsk Stempelblad / Ett Trykk sorte Rubons 'Venner'. Crystal stickers from a bookstore, or maybe Nille. To stencil the unicorn I used Tim Holtz' Inkssentials Ink Blending Tool & Foam, and the Distress ink-pads - 'Vintage Photo' & 'Aged Mahogany' + a drop from the retired Ranger Vintage Scented Ink-refill bottle 'Pumpkin Pie'. *Mmm* Smells Yummy - and the color was perfect!

Mosaic L♥ve

StampARTic's Artsy challenge i sommer er å lage et 'Mosaik kort med papir, som du selv har fremstillet enten med sværte, stempler, maling eller noget helt andet'. Fikk nettopp et stilig bakgrunnstempel fra CHF som passet perfekt! Og så fikk jeg endelig brukt et av de flotte Hero Arts Stemplene jeg fikk i bloggcandy hos Sir Stampalot's utfordringsblogg :)
The Artsy summerchallenge at StampARTic is 'to make a Mosaic card with paper you have made your self. Either with ink, stamps, paint or something else'. I had lots of fun with this! And I got to use the gorgeous backgroundstamp from CHF, and also one of the cool Hero Arts stamps I received in the secret goodiebag candy on Sir Stampalot's challenge blog :)

Sing it baby!!!

Temaet for denne ukas Simon Says utfordring er å tenke på en sang og lage et kort etter det... Vel, jeg hadde denne på hjernen her om dagen; 'Eg heiter Håvard Hedde og er så ven ein kar - no vil eg bort og gifta meg - og ryddja meg ein gard....' Men jeg tror ikke den fins på engelsk? :)
This time Simon Says challenge 'Sing it Baby!' - is to find a song and make a card with that in mind! Well.. The song I had stuck on my mind is a sweet old norwegian folksong about a boy who's name is Håvard Hedde, and he wishes to build a farm below a mountainside, and to marry a girl, have kids... and so on. The girl ends up marrying another in the end - very sad.. ;) I don't think there is an english or american version though? Maybe 'Old MacDonalds' can be a cheerier substitute?! *lol*

Stamps/Image: Papilio Stamps - Ole's lille lam (Ole's little lamb).
Paper:
Notabene & Bazzill cardstocks. Webster's Pages - Lullaby Lane 'Puppydogs & Pigtails'.

Embellishments:

My first card goes for 'Animal Antics' wich is the theme set for the August at By the cute and Girly. Cats has always been my favourite animal - and my own is all grey & regal! If he was able...

Allsorts Penny Black utfordringsblogg vil ha 'glitter og bling' i august!
My second card is all 'Glitter and Glitz', for Penny Black at Allsorts Challenge this month. I'm not so much in favour of glitter - especially the stuff that rubs off on your hands.. like this one did! *lol*

And the third cat-card 'Brings on the Bling' for the august challenge at Sir Stampalot... and just a little bit of bling is good enough for me! :)

Rainy Summer Days...

Vi har hatt en veldig regnfull sommer - og når jeg får et slikt tema på en utfordringsblogg, Bunny-Zoe's #2. 'Sommer Dager' - så følte jeg for å hente frem ett trykk av en hänglar-gutt i regntøy!

For the second challenge at Bunny-Zoe Crafts, it's "Summer Days". Well - summer here where I live has been rain almost every other day.. Not much beaches and sand I tell you! *lol* But it's been warm enough - so my little hänglar-guy is very happy to play in the puddles with the toadies! ;)

Utfordringen hos Dutch Dare Card #83. er 'hva som helst!', så jeg har laget to elvis presley kort! :) Det er så synd at Cornish Heritage Stamps butikken stenger - jeg har kjøpt disse og de nydelige Friendly Critters stemplene mine der! ♥


The challenge at Dutch Dare Card is #83.'Anything Goes', so I've made a couple of Elvis cards - and I'm very sad to see the Cornish Heritage Stamp store close - they have been my supplier of theese and friendly critters stamps ♥ I've sent in my last order, and I was lucky enough to get some of the stamps I've 'needed' in my collection. But what now? Where to get theese lines in the future? And what about the forums - will they dissapear? :( I so hope that the shop including the Elvis, critters, Kinkade etc. will be bought up and continued! Best wishes for Richard & Liz in their future endeavours. Have always received great service from them :)

Scraplyckan wedding card ♥

Dette er et bryllupskort jeg lagde til Carly-Ann og kjæresten Rob, som skal gifte seg den 7. August! ♥ Det er pga. en blogcandy hos Charizma Cardz, for jeg kjenner henne ikke - men jeg er følger av bloggen hennes :) Det var kjempekoselig å lage et bryllupskort til en forandring - og så fikk jeg prøvd ut både et nytt stempel og en ny spellbinders! *lol*
This is a wedding card especially created for Carly-Ann & her Rob ♥ because of a blogcandy I saw on Charizma Cardz. Had a lot of fun painting this image for the first time, and the frame dies is also new - gorgeous right? I've sent it off just yesterday, and with 10 days to go - I hope it makes it's way across the sea not too slowly :)

Best wishes Carly-Ann & Rob!

Sugar in the garden...

Jeg har jo 2års jubileum her, så jeg syntest det var på tide med en oppfriskning av blogg-bakgrunn og layout! Blir sikkert bedre å lese også for de med svære skjermer.. ;) Har også en BlogCandy gående tom. 31 aug. - 'klistret' fast i toppen av siden!
På denne utfordringen hos The Sugar Bowl #39., koste jeg meg ordntlig! En så utrolig fin skisse av Lilian - og jeg ble veldig fornøyd med fargene :)

I've refreshed my blog with new layout & background - probably not done yet though *lol* But I hope it's more readable for those with the big screens! :)
On Sugar Bowls challenge #39., we're to use Lilians awesome sketch. And the optional theme this time is to use something BLUE!
Oh - don't forget, I have a blogcandy going until 31st of July!

Nice & Girly!

Har hatt problemer med å komme meg på nett i det siste - så det har blitt lite med blogging (surt når internett detter ut hele tia!) Lillebroren min har forhåpentligvis fixa tilkoblinga for siste gang nå (?) 'lol*
Men det er bra at jeg har fått lagd opp masse kort isteden for å dille på pc'n - skal nemlig ha min første salgsbod på Melbu torg under Markedskvelden imårra! *bite-negler* Er heldigvis ikke så lenge det varer (ryggen er ikke god..) 18:00-22:00. Sommertalenter 2010 skal kåres samme kvelden, så det blir sikkert moro å se på :)


En av favoritt nettbutikkene mine Bunny Zoe Crafts, har fått seg en utfordrings blogg :) Første ut er 'Snill og jentete' - sikkert flere oversettelser av 'Nice' - som pen og søt.. Tenkte på Sarah Kay's stempler da!
Been a while since I blogged - have had a bit of trouble getting online, something wrong with the internet connection.. Hopefully all is well now, after my handy brother fiddled with it.. ;) But I've been very productive in making cards lately so I'll be adding some this weekend - if I'm not too tired!
Because tomorrow is the Summer-Marked evening on Melbu, and I'll be having my own booth there, selling my cards - I hope! Wish me good luck :)


Did you know that Bunny Zoe Crafts has a new challenge blog! I love the shop - have gotten many a stamp there :) And the first challenge is #1. Nice and Girly. Wich I
definitely think the Sarah Kay images are!

Stamps/Images: Stampavie - Sarah Kay 'Sarah on the farm'.
Papers: Misc cardstocks, the purple is from Notabene - Natural handmade paper (actually not seen in the scan, but it has flourishes on wich are a bit embossed!).
Embellishments: Spellbinder Nestabilities 'Petite Ovals Large'. Cuttlebug Embossing folder - A2 Borders 'Just My Type'.

CowGirl card & BlogCandy Winners :)

Scroll down if you're looking for the winners of my candy!

By the cute and Girly sin utfordring i Juni mnd. er bryllup - eller fra temaet; noe gammelt, noe nytt, noe lånt eller noe blått... Jeg har 'gravd' frem et gammelt stempeltrykk jeg ikke har fått brukt til noe, lagd ett 'nytt' ark, og lånt ei mønstersaks fra moren min :)
The June challenge at By the Cute and Girly is either a wedding card, or something from the theme: “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue..” I borrowed my mums zigzag-patterned scissors, made a new background paper, and the stampmotif is an old one I'd painted way back in july 2008 and not used yet :)

Stamps/Images: Bombshell stamps - Retro Cowgirls set. Magnolia - BakgrundsSwirl Bröllup. Scrapmagasinet - 27B (howdy COWBOY).
Papers:
