the Goblin Queen

Simply Betty Stamps er en av de digistempel-produsentene jeg har aller mest motiver fra, sånn EXTREMT mange ~ sikkert 500++ ikke inkludert tekster.. jepp, bare fargelagt noen dusin av dem, men Betty har veldig ofte bundles/kjempegoe rabatter og freebies så jeg får liksom aldri nok ;)

I absolutely LOVE this stamp company, can't ever get enough ~ and it shows, probably got 500+ digi motivs, not including all the lovely text stamps by SBS.. I haven't even inked up more than a couple dozen of them, but I keep on hoarding anyway, as Betty always do awesome bundles n discounts, too good to pass up on *lol* ;)
This cool Goblin Queen (reminds me of one of my fave movies the Labyrinth ~ 'MAGIC Dance' vid on youtube ~ perhaps she's a female Jareth?) was a freebie on Betty's Facebook group however. You should join if you want to be in a real creative, fun, a bit crazy and friendly group of fellow crafters :)

Aurora Reindeer ♥ Christmas Card

Ukens utfordring hos Creative Fingers #73. er sponset av The East Wind, og som alltid er det 'Anything Goes' som betyr 'Lag-hva-du-vil' på vår utfordringsblogg, du er hjertelig velkommen til å delta :) 

Har nettopp sagt farvel til min trofaste Cuttlebug (ca.2005-2006?) og kjøpt meg ny Sizzix Big Shot med Starter kit! Fikk den 600kr billigere enn listepris på et supertilbud i en lokal butikk, Handlaga, kunne jo ikke la det gå fra meg.. ;) Hadde mest lyst på Tim Holtz' elektriske Vagabond, men den får fortsatt stå på ønskelista en stund!
Oppdaget til min glede at CB kutte-platene kan bruke i denne også, som var kjempekjekt siden jeg har så mange nesten nye. Nå kan jeg endelig bruke mine lange dies fullt ut! Og se så pen den er  ♥
 

Just got myself the Big Shot starter kit, so I'm super-happy! First on my wishlist was the Vagabond, but I couldn't pass this up - huge discount - so the Tim Holtz dream-maschine will have to wait.. Maybe he'll do a bigger one sometime in the future that can take 8x8 and up? :)

The East Wind is our kind sponsor on challenge #73. this week at Creative Fingers, and as a member of the DT, I got this lovely digi to showcase :) The Theme is always 'Anything Goes', create whatever you wish! You are most welcome to join in! ♥
 

Here's a detailed shot of the fun-foam sentiment, it is such a cool 3D effect! 'God Jul' means 'Merry Christmas' btw. I wanted to show you the awesomeness that is Twinkeling H2O, see the shine? It really adds another level to your watercoloring! ♥ I added some shiny glitterglue to the letters, and glossy accents to details of the card.
