More triple-layer-die ChristmasCards!

Lagde to julekort til med den nydelige 'Melissa' snøkrystall-lignende lag-på-lag-diesen fra Sue Wilson, som jeg blogget igår om, med et kort som hadde et julenissesledemotiv i midten. Det røde kortet her har et av de orginale die-motivene som fulgte med i settet men jeg tror nok jeg oftest kommer til å bruke den som en ramme.

Har du forresten sett vår flotte Creative Fingers DTs ~ Christmas blogcandy? Jeg sponser et av de tre stempelsettene man kan vinne der! :)

(God Jul = Merry Christmas)

I have yet another two christmascards with my new gorgeous snowflake-ish 'Melissa' triple-layer-die from Sue Wilson. My red card has the original middle-dies that followed the set. You can see the previous blogpost here with the santasleigh die motif in the middle :) 

Btw. have you seen our awesome Creative Fingers DTs ~ Christmas BlogCandy? I'm sponsoring one of the three stampsets there! ♥

Unique Friend cards

Sånn først og fremst sender jeg en stor unnskyldning til alle jeg har neglisjert, både online venner og 'real-life' venner ♥ Har levd litt i min egen boble, mye plaget med smerter, dårlig helse, og en litt for stor del av familie tragedier... Har blitt litt mye i det siste, og siden jeg alltid har trivdes best på egen hånd og pusle med mine ting, så kan jeg lett bli litt anti-sosial *hehe* Tror faktisk at uten bloggen og fb så hadde jeg blitt en huleboer ~ hvis hulen hadde innlagt vann og tv og internett.. og scrapperom vel og merke ;)  Skal prøve å være mere sosial ~ men om jeg er litt fraværende, så vet du litt hvorfor ♥

Har du forresten sett den nye BlogCandyen min? Mye flott å vinne der, og min måte å takke alle som følger bloggen min og titter innom og legger igjen så koselige kommentarer til meg. Trekker en heldig vinner etter den 25 mai!

Det går mot vår (selv om folk sørpå påstår at den allerede er kommet, så er vi ikke helt overbevist her nord) og Papirplanetens utfordring #17., er for Mai mnd. og har som tema ~ Bli inspirert av sangen "Kom Mai du skjønne milde" og / eller bruk fargene Rødt, Hvitt og Blått. Her kan du høre sangen på youtube :)

Har lagd disse to kortene som mitt inspirasjonsbidrag, og har hentet farger og inspirasjon fra sangen og våren ~ ja det er jo lov å håpe, her jeg bor er det langt fra sommer i lufta, det snødde igår! :)
Du kan finne flere av stemplene og dies jeg har brukt hos Papirplaneten, linker nederst i bloggposten. Vi håper føler deg inspirert til å delta med dine kreasjoner hos oss! ♥

"you are my friend ~ UNIQUE ~ in every way"

...

First of all, so sorry for not beeing around online, or beeing much present in 'real life' really :P My health is an on-going struggle each n' every day, with some ups and downs, and I have kind of been a recluse for the longest time (wich suits me just fine, but it's often frowned upon beein so anti-social *lol*), so I will try to be more present in the future! :) 
On top of dealing with health issues, we have also had alot to deal with within my family lately ~ many tragic events.. so I have not been keepin' up with commenting for quite some time. I appreciate all the visits on my blog though, and hope to be able to visit you all back sometime! ♥ 

Meanwhile ~ as my way of giving back, did you notice my pinned BlogCandy up for grabs?! Loads of yummy goodies for a lucky winner :)

My two cards today has a spring feeling, but it is still cold up here in the northern parts of Norway, it even snowed yesterday! :) Theese are my DT inspiration for PapirPlaneten, a norwegian challengeblog and craft shoppe, and the theme for May is either to use Red, White & Blue (colors of our flag, and this month we have our constitution Day on May 17th.) or to be inspired by the norwegian song "Kom Mai du skjønne milde" ~ about longing for the spring to come :)

Her er et nytt kort - i herlig grønt denne gang! Jeg har blitt veldig glad i stemplene fra Rachelle Anne Miller. Hun er en fantastisk kunstner! Illustrasjonene hennes er det mange av, og alle er så nydelige at jeg skulle ønske at de ble til stempler alle sammen!!! :)

I just love Rachelle Anne Miller's stamps! She makes faboulous illustrations - and I wish all were made available as stamps soon. Maybe in the future!!! :)
