Har nok enda litt igjen å organisere før jeg viser frem flere bilder av det nye scrapperommet... Husk på å sjekke innom her i bloggen om et par tre ukers tid ~ da blir det en ordntlig flott bloggcandy med ting og tang jeg putter i gi-bort-esken min :)
Kortet mitt er DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #153., og den nydelige havfruen er et digistempel fra vår flotte sponsor LeAnn's World 101.
Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)
With snow up on the mountaintops and the winter and colder weather coming very soon.. (too soon) I have made a card, dreaming of warmer days ♥ However, I felt a bit lost after painting this gorgeous mermaid motif.. had no idea what to do with it, and it didn't help that my new scraproom still has a major need of organizing. Soooo much stuff still in boxes! I'm quickly running out of space on the walls for new shelves.. I thought to just put her on a white background with a few ink splashes behind her, and call it done.
But ofcourse that would not do, so a few hours later (yes I have that much papers) I found the perfect really old Prima designerpaper in my stash ~ beach and sand background! I even had two of the same paper, so I didn't feel bad for using the whole paper, wich I tend do to (=hundreds n hundreds of papers) because I cannot bare simply 'using' them up... does this sound familiar to you? Scrappers-hoarding-anonymous next! LoL ;)
My card is a DT-creation for challenge #153. at Creative Fingers sponsored by the LeAnn's World 101. and her wonderful digistamps ♥
As always we're having an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations :)
.
Remember to check in here in a two-three weeks time, then I'll have filled up my 'stuff-to-give-away-box' and there will be an awesome blogcandy! I'm finding I have quite numerous duplicates, and I have found alot of neat stuff I have gotten as gifts that are really not my style, so hoping that someone else will find it just perfect for their taste. Might be some well-loved used things as well, perhaps in a seperate lot for the ones that don't mind that it isn't brand new.. ♥
