Amalias Baptism card & BlogCandy!

♥ BabyGirl ♥

Wow! Mitt blogginnlegg #300! Det blir det bloggcandy av ;) Scroll til bunnen av innlegget for å se hva du kan vinne! 
Men først tenker jeg å vise frem et kort jeg var veldig glad for å lage ~ min lille niese Amalia ble døpt ifjor, og fra meg kom det en altered bok-eske (skal blogge den også snart). De andre søsknene mine ga dette kortet. Og det ble også mange fine gaver både til den lille og til den stolte storesøster! ♥  
Mo Manning lager bare helt nydelige digistempler ~ og mange vakre småbarn bilder som ser ut som 'ekte' småbarn!!!

As this is my blogentry #300, and to celebrate coming back to blogland after a years hiatus... I have some sweet candy for you below! Last year was my sweet niece Amalias ♥ baptism and I made this card to be given from the family. I also made an altered decoupage book case (box) that I'll blog about later on. 
Mo Manning is one of my favourite artists, and this sweet image is just one of many of her gorgeous designs. I especially love her children stamps, as they really look like actual children! :)

Doctor Who Christmas!

Det var ikke uten grunn at forrige innlegg refererte til favorittserien min, Doctor Who! Tenkte jeg skulle starte gjenreisingen av bloggen med å legge ut noen kort fra jula i fjor ;) Doctor Who er en av de få tv-seriene (og jeg ser maaange serier) som jeg kan se gang på gang og aldri gå lei. 

Kortet til høyre (øverst) er ikke fra noen tv-serie, men et bilde av kunsteren Brigit Ashwood. En 'Babe' til en nevø, den andre nevøen har jeg lykkes i å gjøre Doctor Who fan av, ergo et Tardis kort! ♥ Og til ei god venninne, også rekruttert til who-universet ~ a silent christmas!

It was not without reason I referred to Doctor Who in my previous entry, as I planned on blogging theese rather special christmas cards. I'm a real sci-fi nerd and have recruited both family members and friends to the universe of Doctor Who ♥ With a computer meltdown (mostly salvaged though) health issues as well as struggling with low energy ~ theese cards (and more coming) have all been forgotten about, since I've neglected my blog for more than a year... So I got oodles of creations to blog, as well as a blogcandy coming up this month :)
The two cards up top went to my nephews (the one on the left, up top, not of any tv-series, but a fab image of artist Brigit Ashwood).

As theese cards have never been showed off before, I'm entering in theese fab Challenges: (all cards fitting the themes below)

● Tuesday Throwdown #164. ~ Anything Goes.
● Cards in Envy ~ Manly Challenge (A2 cards).
● Our Creative Corner ~ Forgotten Things Challenge. ('The Silent' makes you forget that u ever saw them or met them! Jikes! Also all theese cards were kinda forgotten about :) 
● Challenges 4 Everybody #28. ~ Anything Goes.

Images: Images printed out of Doctor Who (bbc.co.uk) and Angel? motif from Brigit Ashwood.  

Stamps: Lazar StudioWERX Inc - Funky Holidays. North Star Stamps - Hjørnetekster JUL a6. Christmas text stamps is from 'Julehilsner' by Ksenia Sazonova. Magnolia 'BakgrundsSwirl Bröllup' rubberstamp. 
Papers: A couple of embossed christmas generic cards from a bookstore, and a Karen Marie Klip base card. Bazzill cardstock. And I remeber using up a lot of old scrap-paper leftovers wich I don't remember the origin of, except the santa circle is from a panduro paper. 
Embellishments/Tools: Cuttlebug A2 Embossing Snow Flakes. NorDies - ND God Jul (Scrapmagasinet). Silver brads. Misc Washi tapes. Distress inked edges.

Keep calm.. and Don't BLINK!

Bloggen min har nå ligget her på webben og samlet imaginært spindelvev i over ett år ~ og uten å gå i detaljer så har energien som var vekk kommet tilbake i det siste, og jeg synes tiden er inne for å åpne den opp igjen! Jeg kommer til å ha en RAK om ikke så alltfor lenge for å feire en ny giv ~ og som takk til alle som fremdeles følger med på bloggen min! ♥

Yes, it's true ~ I'm back! :)

And no, much as I wish, I haven't been whisked away by a mad man in a blue box all this time, but wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey stuff did happen, and without oversharing ~ I haven't had the energy to keep the blog up and running. But that doesn't mean I've boxed up my creative urges! Now and then I've been scrappin' and making cards, and I've taken pics of it all, so it will show up in my blog anyday now, as well as new creations! :)

 

But I must not forget to thank you all for sticking by the blog, all of my followers and stalkers ~ I will be having a sweet blogcandy this month, to say thanks & celebrate me coming out of hibernation ♥
