Under the Sea... 🐠🐟

Har lagd en trio av kort med sommer og sjø tema ~ ganske clean & simple for min type kreasjoner, men tenkte jeg skulle prøve å legge bort distress inksene for engangs skyld.. prøve ut litt andre stilarter. Vi får se hvor lenge det varer! 😉
Kortene er DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #234. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema. Jeg er sponsor denne gangen og har både et digistempel og et clearstamp sett som premie! Velkommen skal du være 💗

 

 

I have made a trio of cards, with a summer & sea theme as my DT inspiration for this fortnights challenge #234. at Creative Fingers. Theese are very much clean & simple for my kind of creations, thought I would try not using distressing for a change and have a go at other kinds of card styles. We'll see how long that lasts... lol 😉
As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations. I am sponsoring with both a digistamp AND a physical clearstamps prize this time! 💗

Vanligvis når jeg maler et motiv til et kort bruker jeg det siste jeg kjøpte eller har fått, og det er alltid moro med nye stempler! Men nå har jeg bestemt meg for å faktisk begynne å lage mere med mine gamle stempler ~ allfor mange som bare ligger helt ubrukt eller ikke hatt blekk på seg på mange år! Lovt meg selv dette flere ganger, men nå har jeg stemplet opp flere trykk og begyndt å male dem, så ingen unnskyldning nå når boksen med ferdige motiver står klar på bordet ;) 

Noen av mine gamle, pent brukte stempler og noen nye som jeg finner at jeg har kjøpt dobbelt av kommer i fremtidige RAK/bloggcandy'er her i bloggen ~ faktisk tenkt til å legge ut en ny bloggcandy senere idag eller imorgen, så følg med!

Usually my go-to when making a card is to use a recent purchased stamp or won image... Wich is all good fun, but I have decided to actually start creating more with my old stamps, wich I got way too many of thats just laying around all unused and uninked for years! Promised myself this several times, but now I have stamped up many different motifs and started watercoloring them, so there will be no excuses now that a box of finished motifs sits on my table ;)

Some of my old (nicely used) stamps, some new I find I have duplicates of will end up in future blogcandies ~ I'll have a new Blogcandy today or tomorrow actually! So do check back later on.

Prinsesse kort - Cutecard Thursday

Denne blogcandy'en er en ordntlig go'bit!!! bla. et nydelig whiff of joy stempel! Gå til Debbies Crafting Fairie blogg, og se hvordan den kan bli din :) (innen 24'de august)

Challengen hos Cutecard Thursday # 23. var å ha noe av 'soft furnishings' på et kort - f.eks. sofa, gardiner, knapper, tøy etc. Jeg har valgt å bruke et motiv printet ut på bazzill, siden prinsessen står foran en gardin, draperi eller hva det nå kalles, og det er også en lilla blomsterknapp med :) Tekststemplet '..magisk dag' er fra Kreativ Hobby, og kjærlighets-teksten 'novel' er et stempel fra Hampton Art. Ellers er det bazzill og ukjent mønsterpapir, og prima blomster, med QK-leaf og revolution swirl. Og ansiktet har blitt litt grønt i scannern.. det er egentlig rosa/beige! *lol* The challenge at Cutecard Thursday # 23 was to use 'Soft Furnishings' from the home. I.e. sofas, curtains, fabric etc. And I've chosen an image where the princess is standing in front of a curtain, printed on bazzill. And I've used a purple button :) Stamps used are the text '..magisk dag' from Kreativ Hobby, and 'novel' from Hampton Art.
Her face really isn't green! the scanner must have messed up a bit *lol* ;)
