Nautical Confirmation Tag! ⚓

Denne helga har mitt yngste søskenbarnet sin konfirmasjon, og den maritime tagen jeg viser frem er lagd av restepapir fra invitasjonskortene jeg lagde iløpet av Bikubens online vårscrapp i mars. Tenker jeg skal lime et gavekort bakpå eller en pengelomme med noe oppi som gave! 💗

Inspirasjons bidrag for Creative Fingers utfordring #254. hvor vår DT Angelique er sponsor denne gang med en flott premie, og som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema. Velkommen skal du være! 😊

 

A nautical themed tag made with the paperscraps i got from making the invitations back in march, for my cousins confirmation day wich is coming up this weekend. I'm thinking I will add a giftcard or moneyenvelope to the back as my gift to him 💗

My DT creation for this fortnights challenge #254. at Creative Fingers. Our DT Angelique is sponsoring with pretty heart embellishments! As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 😊..

paperscraps cut into similar sized strips,
then stuck down on adhesive to make a

Cut it down to a tag shape and punched a hole in the top with my silentsetter. I then used Viva Decor 'platinum' inka gold wax rubbed on top of the raised dryembossed texture and diecut ~ see photos of the process above. Added a white bazzill cardstock to the back and doodled the edges with a Sakura Permapaque blue metallic marker.

Blooming Mystery Blues 💙

 

Kortet mitt er DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #226. som denne gang er sponset av vår DT Anne Constantly-Carding! Hun selger digitale kits / ark pakker gjennom CraftsUPrint, og gir bort tre flotte digikits som premie.

Skriver litt om det nedenfor 😀

Soooo... I too got bit by the resin bug! 🤩 It looks so fun in the gazillion videos on youtube, so for about a year now I have been wanting to try it. Some of the top enablers I would like to point out is: Pouring your heart out, Resin As You Wish, Sveta Fresh, and Steve McDonald Arts and Crafts.
I have bought supplies for it every now and then, but never really dared to step into it.. Thought I would start with the 'easy & quick' one, wich is UV-resin. Used a nail UV lamp and a UV resin to create theese little pearly half beads as well as the pendant you see below, wich my mum will get. Not going with the card, just wanted to show it off here since I made it at same time.
My first resin projects! There will be many more, got lots new moulds and 3 litres of crystal resin, then I wont be limited to clear moulds. I already had a whole lot of glitters and alcohol inks in my stash, so I found it easy to make something pretty, once I just dared to begin! 💙 And I do have many beautiful Prima moulds, some very intricate ones that I haven't had much luck with my airdry clay in.. getting stuck in thin nooks n crannys! I cant wait to create durable embellishments to use in my creations all the time 👍

The Moth Girl

Har jo lovet en bloggcandy her på bloggen, men det blir enda noen dager til.. Venter på en par pakker som det er noe oppi som skal i bloggcandyen, men ting tar jo ekstra lang tid nå i disse coronatider... Og når ting endelig kommer (alt etter om det er på døra eller på posten) så kan det ta lengre tid, siden jeg sjøl-isolerer og ikke har vært utafor huset på mange uker. Tar ingen sjangser her, siden både jeg og min mor som bor i etasjen over, er i høyrisiko gruppene. Heldigvis har jeg en bror som shopper, henter og bringer og setter fra seg ting på trappa til meg ♥ ♥ ♥

Dette 🦋 kortet er mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #184., med motiv fra vår flotte sponsor Ching-Chou Kuik ♥
Motivet heter 'the Moth' 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 :)

May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun.
And find your shoulder to light on.
To bring you luck, happiness and riches.
Today, tomorrow and beyond.
~ Irish blessing ~ 

❤️ 🦋 ❤️

If you're on the lookout for my promised blogcandy, it's still a while to wait! Days, a week, I don't know. I'm self isolating so I haven't gone anywhere for many weeks now, during theese corona-times.. so unless it is a drop off door delivery, my brother does the shopping for me and fetching/sending post at the postoffice & stuff, leaving everything by the doo. Not taking any chances here, both me and my mum who lives upstairs, both are in high risk groups ♥ ♥ ♥

My DT card for this fortnights challenge #184. at Creative Fingers wich is sponsored by the wonderful Ching-Chou Kuik ♥
This rubberstamp motif is called 'the Moth' 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 :)

Jurassic Dinosaur card! 🦕

 

Jurassic Park serien av filmer er en av mine absolutt favoritter, spesielt den orginale trilogien, men jeg elsker Chris Pratt filmene også! ♥ Sommern 2021 kommer den tredje Jurassic World filmen, og jeg tror det kommer til å bli helt EPISK bra! Spielberg er tilbake og skal produsere, og Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neill og Laura Dern er på rollelista! 
Har du fått med deg 'Battle at Big Rock' kortfilmen? Den handler om hva som skjedde etterpå at dinosaurene slapp fri fra fangenskap inne på fastlandet...

Mitt dino kort er DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #178. Angelique er vår sponsor denne gang, med et dies-sett til vinneren! Så vi hadde fire tøyler til å bruke fra våre egne stempler og stæsj. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)

Kjenner du igjen disse designerarkene? Har hatt dem gjemt unna i årevis! Basic Grey lagde utrolig flotte kolleksjoner med ark som var helt unike ~ og desverre fins de ikke lengre. Så jeg har vært veldig sparsommelig med å bruke av de jeg har. 'Måtte' ta noen til å dekorere dette kortet da, bare helt perfekt match!
Stempelmotivet er fra the Greeting Farm og jeg har drodlet sirkel rammen selv og gjort det til et digitalt stempel. Syns det lignet litt på steiner og sånne sedimenter under jordskorpen!

Jurassic Park is one of my absolute favourite series of movies, especially the original trilogy, but I LOVE the new Chris Pratt ones too ♥ really looking forward to next years Jurassic World movie! It is going to be EPIC with Jeff Goldblum back together with Sam Neill and Laura Dern, as well as Spielberg producing!
Have you seen 'Battle at Big Rock', the short story movie yet? Its about what happens when a bunch of dinosaurs are let loose on the mainland!

see Battle at Big Rock on Youtube

This dino themed card is my DT creation for challenge #178. at Creative Fingers. Our DT Angelique is kindly our sponsor this time with a die set for the challenge winner! So we had free reigns on the designteam to create with our own images and stash :)
As always it is an 'Anything goes theme'. You are more than welcome to join with your creations ♥

I have had theese papers (see inside also) for ages, not willing to 'spend' them as they are quite unique. Do u remember all the awesome papers collections from Basic Grey? So sad they quit making papers.. but I had to use at least some of them for my dino card. So perfect match for it!
The little boy is a Greeting Farm stamp, and the doodled bubble circle frame is a digistamp I made myself. Looking very much like stones or sediments below the ground right? :)
