Be a Mermaid.. and make waves!

 

Da jeg deltok på Bikubens Høstscrapp treff i slutten av september, avtalte vi å gjøre et ATC bytte og Tag bytte, og her er er mine ATC'er ~ med Havfrue tema! Gleder meg til å se hvilke ATC'er de andre damene har lagd 💗

Som mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #240., har jeg lagd to tags (eller bokmerker som jeg oftest bruker tags som), med et nydelig solsikke stempel fra vår sponsor Conie Fong Art & Design. Solsikker har alltid vært favorittblomsten min, men jeg verdsetter den enda mer nå som et symbol for fred og støtte til det Ukrainske folk 💛🌻💙
Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være 😊

 

 

As my DT creation at Creative Fingers #240., I've made two tags (or bookmarks as I usually use them as), with a gorgeous sunflower stamp from our sponsor Conie Fong Art & Design. Sunflowers has always been my favourite flower, but I have come to value it even more so now as a symbol of Peace and solidarity with the people of Ukraine 💛🌻💙
As always we have an Anything goes theme, and you are more than welcome to join our challengeblog with your creations 😊
