Dorothy's Ruby red slippers! 👠

Kortet mitt har et digistempel av Dorothy sine magiske røde sko (Trollmannen fra Oz) som jeg har tegnet, og har i etsy butikken min her ~ Digi Doodle Stamps by Tindaloo. Jeg er både sponsor og DT for Creative Fingers utfording #223. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være 💗

⚡⚡⚡ Er noe sent ute med kortet.. er endelig tilbake på nett etter en ukes 'internett abstinenser'... ja det er sånn man finner ut hvor avhengig man egentlig har blitt! ... I etterkant av stormen Gyda fikk vi skikkelig torden uvær med lynnedslag som sprengte stikk kontakter av veggen og ødela modem, antennmottakeren OG tv parabolantenne og kansje dekoderne! 💀

Her er en av dem, noe svidd ja! Internettledningen var smeltet innvendig! Vært krefter i sving ja ~ det var et voldsomt lys og brak da strømmen gikk, og ozon lukta var så stram at jeg fikk vondt i hodet 🤢  Vi sprang rundt som vettskremte høns i mørket med mobil lommelyktene på, og lette etter brann i vegger og loft. Broren min som er elektriker og nettopp hadde kommet på jobben, dro derfra og kom helt hit for å gå gjennom huset. Vi var kjempeheldige, det kunne gått så mye verre om det hadde tatt fyr...

 
Forhåpentligvis har ikke playstation og nintendo switch'en tatt skade, de virker fint for nå .. men det sies at det kan ta flere uker før plutselig en skade kommer, men krysser fingre og tær at det ikke skjer. Vi hadde internettleverandøren vår her som ordna ny internett på husveggen, og vi kjøpte nytt modem til et annet rom, men det var sørgelig kvalitet på det.. Heldigvis at man har en elektriker bror 💗 Han var her i kveld og trakk nye ledninger og ordnet internett til oss, og faktisk virker det nå bedre enn det var før! Så selv om vi er uten tv en stund, så kan man jo strømme. Har sedd på Battlestar Galactica tvserien (bluray boks) denne tiden, og når man først har begyndt blir man hekta! Sett den før for mange år siden, men det er noe annet å 'bingewatche' serien enn en episode i uka på tv med masse reklame 😉 👍

⚡⚡⚡ I am almost a day late with my card.. Finally back online after a week without internet due to a lightningstrike that fried out internet and tv. The powers in that lightning was so loud and before the lights went out, there was a blinding light, and in upstairs hallway the ozon smell was so heavy I got a headache 🤢
Tv parabolic antenna and internet antenna and modem was fried, scorchmarks above some wall lamps, wires and electrical sockets fused and one even blew off the wall! See image above.. And we were so afraid there was fire inside the wall or in the attic we ran around in the pitch dark with or phone lights sniffing and touching walls for heat... My brother who is an electrician had just arrived at work (early morning this) and got leave for the day to drive here and check over the house. We were so lucky the lightning didn't cause any fires.

I am hopeful that it didn't damage my gaming consoles, but they say it can go weeks without notice then just poof! 💀 We had our internetprovider come and got a new internet antenna on the housewall, and using an old inlet for a new modem ~ but the quality was so poor that I had virtually no internet downstairs in my apartment. My brother was here again tonight, or rather last night (It's almost morning while I blog this) fixing our internet and pulling new wires around and thru the roof to a better location for our modem. Awesome quality internet! So happy, it's even better than before! lol 😀 I have during this downtime started bingewatching the whole Battlestar Galactica box set on bluray, totally hooked! Seen it ages ago, but its a whole other thing to watch a series continuosly instead of once a week on tv, with no irritating commercials! 👍

● As You Like It ~ Favourite Colouring Medium (& why)! [Feb.2nd.]
Distress inks has been my favourite to watercolor with ever since Tim first began releasing distress inks in other colors than brown & black lol ♥ I love the vintage looking colors (although he's succumbed to the masses need for brights & girly colors lol) and I love distressing so it's perfect for me. So easy, just dab the inkpad on plastic/glass surface and add water ~ u dont even have to mix colors, but I love doing so, especially mixing together with my other fave watercolor medium, Twinkling H2o's, for that extra bling & shine!

Espresso yourself!

 

Jeg begyndte ikke å drikke kaffe før jeg var godt over tredve, og enda foretrekker jeg pepsi max før kaffe ~ bortsett fra når jeg får en god kopp med noe 'ekstra' oppi.. som caffe latte! karamell & fløte, eller en iskaffe latte *nam* 💗

Kaffe Kortet mitt er DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #193., med et flott motiv fra vår sponsor Jan's Digi Stamps. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)

 

 

A coffe themed card all in monochrome browns, cream and a touch of gold! My favourite colors 😍 I was actually never a coffee lover until in my mid thirties,  (I've always preferred my Pepsi Max) when I tasted a caffe latte for the first time! Only when I get a cup of coffee with something extra added, like cream n caramel though, don't like the bitter plain coffee taste... My favourite is iced caffe latte! 💗

My DT card for this fortnights challenge #193. at Creative Fingers has a lovely coffee motif from our sponsor Jan's Digi Stamps. As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 💗

Vintage Glow in the Dark Alien!

 

Beklager veldig mørke bilder først og fremst. Har ikke funnet ut av kamera innstillingene til ny-telefonen min!

Har hentet inspirasjon fra noen sci-fi favoritt filmer og tv-serier til dette vintage Alien kortet. X-files, Men in Black, Independence Day, Roswell, Dark Skies, Nærkontakt av tredje grad, Taken, SG-1 og Stargate Atlantis +++  Tenk Roswell, Area 51 og UFO'er... Einstein er kjent for å ha trodd på muligeheten for liv på andre planeter, så jeg syntest han passet godt inn på kortet mitt!  

Er ikke den selvlysende effekten stilig? Man får både nuvo drops som lyser i mørket og flere produsenter har selvlysende embossing pulver! Har kjøpt WOW sin, men ikke fått prøvd den enda, kansje på neste prosjekt!

Jeg har forresten en blogcandy som du kan være med på trekningen til ~ her ~ om du enda ikke har sett den!

"Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist. In the vastness of the Universe we are not alone."      ~ Albert Einstein ~

Sorry about the dark photos first of all, haven't figured out my new phone camera settings yet! 

I've found inspiration from some of my favourite sci-fi movies and tv-series like X-files, Men in Black, Independence Day, Roswell, Dark Skies, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Taken, SG-1 og Stargate Atlantis ++ Think Roswell, Area 51 & UFO's... Einstein is known for believing in the possibility of life on other planets, so I thought he'd fit perfectly on my card!

Don't you love the awesome glow in the dark effect? You can get both luminescent glowdrops from Nuvo, and several brands has embossing powders that does that also! I just got WOW's but not had a chance to try it yet, maybe that will be my next project :)

Don't forget there is still time to join in one of my blogcandies here! :)

the glow in the dark effect is awesome!

Har migrene igjen, så jeg sitter oppe inatt og akkurat nå er det ikke så ille, så jeg får gjort ferdig denne bloggposten ~ for lite koffein i kroppen er også en trigger :P Så ikke bare et kaffe tema på kortet mitt, jeg sitter også med en stor kopp med kaffe mens jeg skriver :) 

... PS: Ikke gå glipp av mine to bloggcandys med masse flott scrappestæsj som jeg gir bort! :) 

I'm currently having a migraine, again... but it's not as bad right now, and since I'm not going to get any sleep soon, I'm finishing up this blogpost. Too little coffeine in my body is also a trigger :P So I'm not only sharing a coffee themed card, I've also got a huge cuppa coffee on my desk while typing :)
