Fairy Special Kitten card

 

Dette kortet er mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #180., med motiv fra vår flotte sponsor Ching-Chou Kuik. Jeg har massevis av nydelige CCK motiver, både digistempler og gummistempler som dette jeg har brukt. Et av mine favorittmotiver, vakker jente og en nydelig pus som minner meg så om min Tamlin ♥ *snufs*

Motivet heter 'Purple Woods' og er fra CCK & Sweet Pea Stamps. Digi versjonen kan du nå finne her i etsy butikken hennes.
Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)

My DT card for this fortnights challenge #180. at Creative Fingers wich is sponsored by the wonderful Ching-Chou Kuik.

It got a pretty girl & a kitten that so reminds me of my Tamlin.. *shedding a tear* Still miss him alot even though its been ten years now.. He was such a sweetheart ♥

The rubberstamp motif is called 'Purple Woods' but is also now available now in her digistore on etsy as part of a collection of four images, wich you can find here! As always Creative Fingers has an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations :)

Baby Robin Christmas Card

Ukens utfordring hos Creative Fingers #60. er sponset av Beccy's Place! Jeg valgte denne lille fuglen for mitt DT-kort ♥ Ikke en fugl vi ser her til lands (?) men den ligner på dompappen, så jeg skal lage nok et kort med sort/grå/røde farger :) Som alltid er det 'Lag-hva-du-vil' hos CF ~ og designteamet har laget julekort denne gangen ~ som passet veldig bra, siden jeg har hundreogørti stykker å lage.. hehe, alltid i siste liten! ;)

I  love this cute little baby Robin! Don't think we have this bird in Norway, but it is supercute, and the form looks very similar to our 'Dompap' just in black, grey and red, a finch-bird I believe.. So I'll try and color it up like one for another card soon! :)
Beccy's Place is the sponsor this week, and I've made a christmas themed card for my DT project at Creative Fingers Challenge #60. We always have 'Anything Goes', and lots of fun prizes :) You are most welcome to join us ♥

Techniques: I always use my Scor-Pal to score n fold my cards. I prefer Canson Montvale aquarelle paper (200 g/m coldpressed). My distress tools from Ranger Ink is always in use! ~ Tim Holtz® Mini Ink Round Blending Tool & the Inkssentials Ink Blending Tool and Foams. I used misc. Luminarte Twinkling H2o's Shimmering Watercolors, and Tim Holtz Distress Ink pads & markers to watercolor and distress image and papers. The Frantage embossing enamel has to be heated from under the paper with a heatgun, as it's going to go poof all over your workdesk if you apply heat on top of it like a regular powder! Yep, I did it! LOL :)
The card is a three-step-card, I took a 12x12 cardstock, cut it about 6", and I have scored at 1",2",4",6",9". You fold it alternating ways, kind of like an accordian with mountain/valley folds (up and down). If you go on YouTube, Google or Pinterest and search for 'Stair+Step+Card+fold+tutorial' etc. you will find hundreds of tutorials! Like this one: Stair Step Fold by Beate Johns.

True LOVE Wedding Card

♥   ♥   ♥ 

..Hand in hand.. Side by Side..Together on the highway of Life..

Nok et bryllupskort ♥ Mye av det samme er brukt til dette som på forrige kort - og nå angrer jeg SÅ mye på at jeg ikke kjøpte ihvertfall 10-20 stk av disse arkene - de er ikke mulig å få tak i lengre hos Panduro... Lærepenge til neste gang jeg faller for et ark ;)

Here's yet another wedding card, with much of the same papers as the last, but totally different! Love theese designer papers from Panduro (the amor vincit omnia/dove) I SO regret now that I didn't buy more of theese when I had the chance, as they are no longer available... Oh well, lesson learned! I hope ;)
