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? :)

Lighten Up ~ Great things will happen!

 

Disse morsomme fiskene så jeg i en av Sandy Allnocks youtube videoer, og også hos Julia Altermann her & her. De er så utrolig flinke å fargelegge ♥ 
..Og selvfølgelig måtte jeg jo bare ha dem! :) Har dere også det sånn? Ser noen lage et kort og 'bare-må-ha' stemplene & produktene de bruker? Jeg er iallefall veeeldig skyldig i dette.. Spesielt når jeg ser på Jennifer McGuire! Oi Oi Oi så mange ganger jeg shoppet masse flotte ting og tang ~ og MYE som jeg enda ikke har brukt ;)

Nyttårsforsett: Bruke mere av de tingene jeg har ~ og gi bort det som jeg har for mye av eller vet jeg ikke kommer til å bruke... SE BLOGCANDY'ene jeg har her! ♥

Theese superfunny fishies I saw in one of Sandy Allnocks youtube videos, and also on Julia Altermanns youtube channel here & here. They are fantastic artists, both so awesome at coloring ♥ .. and ofcourse then I just gotta have 'em! Do you also have that urge sometimes? Seeing someone create a card and just immediately must have the stamps n products they are using? I am definitely guilty in this.. Especially Jennifer McGuire is my always-enabler! WOW.. I can't count the times I've rushed to shoppe all fabulous crafty stuff ~ but only actually ended up using a fraction of ;)

NewYears resolution: Use more of the stuff I own ~ and try parting with some of the stuff I have too many of or ones I know I'll never use... SEE THE BLOGCANDY giveaways here! ♥

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 :)

Drink Me! ... Winebottle Tags

Jeg er helt i ekstase idag ~ Tim Holtz' nye bok Compendium II kom i posten, med autograf og hilsning (sikkert en standard, men alikevel!) 
"Hilde ~ Stay curious.." *dåne* Fra Kongen selv ♥ Neste T.Holtz tingen jeg kommer til å gå til anskaffelse av er diesen hans med Tag'en, det holder ikke å klippe ut selv - får aldri hjørnene helt like..

Venter også på pakke fra Simon Says med alle 37 nye Distress Markers som vist frem på CHA messen i USA ~ brukte opp de $50 jeg vant i februar for A Whimsy Home kortet mitt ++ Gjett om jeg gleder meg til å ta de i bruk! Se en av Tim Holtz demoer hos ScrapTime! Fant samtidig en utrolig kunstner på YouTube ~ Brett Weldele, som bruker Distress ink til å male bilder med ~ fantastisk!

Men her er altså et par tags jeg lagde for en stund siden, den ene for å ha på bursdagsgaven til yngste broren min, Kevin. Ser kjempegod ut denne vinflaska, og veldig kult med Alex Rosé(n) vin ;)

I am in heaven today, as my copy of Tim holtz Compendium II book arrived in the mail ~ signed & delivered by the King himself ♥ With a sweet note "Hilde ~ stay curious.." standard quote I'm sure, but nevertheless ~ My preciousss! ;)

Can't wait to get my Distress Markers & start using them ~ used up my winnings at Simon Says Superstore (Whimsy Home card) on a pre-order, mid to late march they start shipping! Hope it won't get held up too long in customs ~ just check out the possibilities in ScrapTime's Tim holtz CHA Demo, and also the amazing comicbook artist Brett Weldele's awesomeness with Distress inks, markers & stains!!! Hmmm... I will be needing some more stains soon too!..
 Showing my tags off on this cool Alex Rosén bottle of wine that I got for my youngest brother Kevin's birthday ~ but he'll receive it a little past due, as he never comes to visit (and to hang up my lighting fixtures) so Happy UnBirthday to him! ;)
