I absolutelyL♥VE the norwegian song for Eurovision Song Contest tonight! By Didrik Solli Tangen ♫ My heart is yours... Gorgeous! If however it doesn't go Norways way this year - here are my 9 other favourites this year: ♫ Iceland - Hera Björk "Je ne sais quoi". ♫ Germany - Lena Meyer-Landrut "Satellite".♫ Turkey - maNga "We could be the same". ♫ Ukraine - Alyosha "Sweet people". ♫ Ireland - Niamh Kavanagh "It's for you". ♫ Moldova - Sunstroke Project & Olia Tira "Run Away".♫ Greece - Giorgos Alkaios & friends "Opa!". Theese are all in the finals - so I picked good this year! But the two last of my faves didn't get through the semi-finals, wich is a shame for sure - both so sweet! (but they didn't perform well live in the semis..) ♫ Latvia - Aisha - "What For? Only Mr. God Knows Why". ♫ Sweden - Anna Bergendahl "this is my life". Well - at least I picked 8 of my fave 10 to still be in the running for the big win - I only hope many more people than me think that the norwegian song is awesome & above all has the best vocals! Best wishes 4 this year also! *lol* I'll be sitting glued to the Tv tonight, and I hope that u all vote for Didrik!♥ :)
UPDATE: Er litt smådeppa etter Eurovision showet på lørdag... Er det mulig? :( Skjønner ikke at så mange åpenbare talenter ble skjøvet helt til side når stemmene ble gitt! Didrik vaklet litt i begynnelsen, men naila resten av sangen, absolutt nydelig - og med den stemmeprakten hadde han fortjent en plass helt i toppen, om ikke førsteplassen! ♥ Jaja.. kommer til å kjøpe CD-plata alikevel - var mange flotte låter med der, og jeg bare later som om Didrik vant *lol* ;)
I'm so happy that Germany's Lena and "satellite" won, when Didrik's song didn't! It's been playing in my head the last couple of weeks ... "even painted my toenails for you".. :) I voted for her and for Iceland's Hera with "Je ne sais quoi", wich is also a very catchy song! But I'm very sad that Didrik (Norway) and Hera (Iceland) didn't get the european votes on saturday - I really don't get that so many obviously talented vocalists were shoved to the bottom - even Niamh from Ireland! ... it's just that ballads seems to be 'out' this year! But I'll be buying the CD anyways - overall GREAT show this year, I have loads of new favourite songs! ♥
Color Throwdown #94. utfordrer med hele fem forskjellige farger - mitt konvolutt-kort har vel heller sparsomt med blått, men men ;) Jeg hadde det kjempemoro med å lage mitt første konvolutt-kort til min nevøs konfirmasjon! Jeg fant denne fine tutorialen her hos Anne, som er DT hos the Pixie Cottage! :) The challenge for Color Throwdown #94. is to use this color palette - wich I have to a degree... There's all the yummy colors - even the blue, at least a little on the cork & bird! *lol* I made the envelope-card after I found Anne's awesome tutorial for the Pixie Cottage.
The inside of the 'envelope-card' has a pocket in wich to keep a money-gift. I've used the 'smudge' tool on the handwritten message if u wondered why it looked weird ;)

Utfordringen hos The Sugar Bowl #35. er ei skisse av Marlene. Og temaet var 'gjenbruk'. Ble ikke spesielt fornøyd med dette kortet - rosa og pastell er virkelig ikke min smak.. men småjenta som sikkert får kortet blir nok happy! ;) For the challenge at the Sugar Bowl #35., we're to use the sketch by Marlene, as well as recycle something. In my card I have used leftover paper scraps, a damaged white flower I've cut to make leafs, and the stamp-motif is printed on back of an old watercolor painting I no longer think is any good ;) I've also rotated the sketch, as I thought that it looked better with the motif ;)

WOJ's utfordring #78. er en super skisse. Følte for å lage et julekort i dag, selv om det er 17. mai! ;) Hadde dette søte stempeltrykket ferdigmalt, og det er jo aldri for tidlig å begynne med julekortene! *hehe* We're having a beautiful summer day on the 17th of May - Norways national holiday. Whiff Of Joy's Challenge #78. is this time to use this great sketch by Jane! And I had this stamp motif already colored, so I thought I'd get a headstart on the christmas cards ;)

Helt utrolig... for et fantastisk hell!!! Jeg ♥ELSKER♥ Dr.Who, så jeg tenkte 'hvorfor ikke' da Programbladet hadde en konkurranse der man skulle skrive hvem som spiller Dr.Who.. Det var jo selvfølgelig et feil stilt spørmål - for det er ikke bare èn Dr.Who! Så jeg skrev (siden premien var den nye Dr.Who serien Sesong 1-4!), om de mente den 9'ende doktoren - Christopher Eccleston, den 10'ende - David Tennant ♥ min favoritt!, eller han som spiller Dr.Who akkurat nå - doktor nr.11 - Matt Smith... Jeg lurer veldig på om jeg vant fordi de skjønte at jeg er en ekte fan *lol* Hm.. eller kansje det var fordi konvolutten jeg sendte inn hadde en søt liten flodhest på? ;) It's absolutely bloody FANTASTIC!!! I got this amazing box-set in the mail some days ago, & I WON it! I love Dr.Who, so when the TV-guide I subscribe to - Programbladet, had a contest with the question: Who plays Dr. Who? I just had to answer it :) I ofcourse thought the question was too narrow - because there been loads of doctors.. But there's three in the new series - wich was the prize! №9. Christopher Eccleston. №10. David Tennant ♥ My Fave! And the newest dr. №11. Matt Smith, from series 5. Don't know why I won though - just luck, pity the fan, or 'cause of the cute hippo on the envelope *lol* The wallpaper below is dr.who - David Tennant with his companion Rose - Billie Piper :)
