Don't Grow Up, It's a Trap!

Ukens utfordring hos Creative Fingers #69. er sponset av OddBall Art Stamps, og som alltid er det 'Lag-hva-du-vil'. Mitt DT-bidrag er en bok til en tenårings-jente, og håper den er 'kul' nok til at hun liker gaven ;)
 

This weeks challenge #69. at Creative Fingers is sponsored by OddBall Art Stamps, and the Theme is as always Anything Goes. You are most welcome to join in! 
I've altered and decorated a plain note book, with lots of fun images in it, and also made a corner bookmark to go with it. It will be a gift for a teen girl, so I'm hoping she will enjoy it, tried to not make it too childish as I know teenage girls like to be perceived as adults *lol* ;)

Dreamy Fairy Anaelise

Ukens utfordring hos Creative Fingers #67. er sponset av Nikki Burnette, og som alltid er det 'Lag-hva-du-vil' ~ valgfritt tema! Unnskyld kornete bilder, fått meg ny mobil og selv om Xperia Z3 Compact er en super-mobil, så har jeg ikke funnet ut av den enda.. forhåpentligvis bedre bilder i neste bloggpost ;)

I'm having a bit of a quarrel with my new phone ~ Sony Xperia Z3 Compact ~ of how to get the best pics.. Not used to the settings yet! I'm just learning the ways of a smart-phone for the first time, which is prooving to be a little tricky ~ but in no time I'm find I'm addicted to the apps.. SOooo many apps! .. there's WordsWithFriends, Spotify, Instagram, Run Sackboy! Run, Minion Rush.. to name a few of my instant favourites ~ btw. my handle is Tindaloo on most stuff if u wanna look me up for a game or two ;) 
Theese were actually the best photos I took out of probably 20+... The camera on the phone is superb ~ 20.7 MP, so it's definitly my poor lighting in my scraproom that's at fault here (not my cameraskills *lol*).. I really need to make myself a shoebox-lightbox.. thanks for the tip Angelique!

Little Christmas Girl Card

Et gammelt julekort har fått nytt liv! Har brukt en ny teknikk (for meg) med Miracle tape og embossing pulver, ser nesten ut som krakelert maling etterpå! Julekrans motivet var for pent til å dekke over med nytt stæsj, så jeg rammet det isteden inn med litt pynt og dette søte digistemplet fra All Dressed Up.

Made a christmas card with an all new technique for me ~ miracle tape with embossing powder. Very fun, it sort of looks like crackled paint! I have altered an old plain and flat card, and given it new life with this cute Little Christmas Girl from All Dressed Up ♥ The motive with the wreath was too good to cover up, so instead I framed it better with the embossing, sweet embellishes, diecuts and sparklies! :)
