Victorian Christmas

 

Mitt DT bidrag i årets første utfording hos Creative Fingers ~ #142., er et julekort med motiv fra Scrapper's Delights. Veldig kjapt og enkelt kort siden motivet allerede var fargelagt :) Denne gangen er Angelique sponsor med en kjempeflott die fra Joy! Crafts, og som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema. Velkommen skal du være ♥

Creative Fingers first challenge of the year #142. is sponsored this time by our Angelique with the pretty Joy! crafts die you see here 👉 for the lucky winner! As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations :)

The team had free choice to use any motifs we wanted on this challenge, and I did a quick to make christmas card, since the image was so beautifully pre-colored by Scrapper's Delights  ♥

Steampunk Lucy Loo

Jeg har sagt det før, og jeg sier det gjerne igjen og igjen ~ Jeg elsker Steampunk og Vintage ♥ Varme rustne brune fargetoner og eldet metall, klokker og tannhjul. Romantiske victorianske klær og hatter, og en reise til en alternativ tid der det er maskiner og fremkomstmidler er dampdrevne! Den fantastiske steampunk jenta på art journal siden min er fra Unky LaStrange ~ The East Wind. Om du melder deg på nyhetsbrevet (til høyre i tew bloggen) får du et gratis digistempel hver måned!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I absolutely LOVE Steampunk and all things vintage colors and the warm browns and autumnal colors :)

For this fortnights challenge #118. at Creative Fingers we are lucky to have two fab sponsors, The East Wind and Elvenstar Art, and as always it is an 'Anything goes' theme. You are more than welcome to join with your creations! :)

Hello Sweetie!

'Hello Sweetie!' Det bruker River Song å si når hun møter 'doktoren' i favoritt sci-fi serien min Doctor Who! Jeg er glad i alle, men spesielt nummer 10 i rekken, David Tennant ♥ Hovedmotivet her ser kansje ut som en gammeldags politi-telefonboks fra England, men den er egentlig en tidsmaskin som Doktoren og medhjelperne reiser rundt i, og kalles en TARDIS :)
Har lekt meg med stempler fra VLVS og en stensil jeg syns så litt 'sci-fi-aktig' ut, fra Patti Tolley Parrish / Inky Obsessions. Hun er en av de jeg liker å følge på youtube, blir alltid glad til sinns med å se en video fra henne, hun har en ekstremt smittsom energi .. og latter ;)

.. Hello Sweetie! .. Don't Blink! .. 

.. The Angels have the phonebox! .. It's bigger on the inside .. 

.. Are you my Mummy? .. Fantastic! .. Allons-y! .. Geronimo! .. 

.. Brilliant! .. Exterminate! .. Delete .. Bow ties are cool .. 

.. Oh, Yes! .. Trust me, I'm the Doctor .. Spoilers ..

....

All some of my favourite catchphrases from the best sci-fi show ever ~ Doctor Who! (ok then, I have several best ever's! lol).. And I highly reccomend it, super witty and funny, fantastic characters and exiting stories, romantic even ~ it helps if u have a love for fantasy and fiction to appreciate it, but it's a show everone will love ♥ I like to say that my first doctor was Nine, but my heart belongs to Ten (David Tennant), and I have a good friend in 11. Not a big fan of 12 yet, but he's growing on me..
 It's River Song (spoilers *his wife*) who says 'Hello Sweetie!' whenever she catches up with the Doctor, so it's a great sentiment to have on my Doctor Who themed card. The main motif is not just an ordinary oldfashioned police phonebox, but a time travel machine! Which ofcourse is much much bigger on the inside.. 

I thought I needed an sci-fi background to go with my awesome VLVS stamps, and have used a real cool stencil by Patti Tolley Parrish aka Inky Obsessions, who looks kind of techy and alien. Patti is one of the people I follow on youtube, such a creative and funny lady! Here's her channel if you want to have a hoot :)

Papers: Bazzill cardstock. Plain white cardstock. .

Embellishments/Tools: iStencils ~ Patti Tolley Parrish 'PTP 8x8 Round Exclusive'. EK Success® Whale Of A Punch 'Large Circle 1.75'. Unknown washi tape.
Techniques: I always use my Scor-Pal to score n fold my cards. I prefer Canson Montvale aquarelle paper (200 g/m coldpressed). My distress tools from Ranger Ink is always in use! ~ Tim Holtz® Mini Ink Round Blending Tool & the Inkssentials Ink Blending Tool and Foams. I used misc. blue Luminarte Twinkling H2o's Shimmering Watercolors, and Tim Holtz Distress Ink pads to watercolor and distress image and papers. 
For the stenciling I used Ranger ink clear embossing powder. After heating it up, I used 'Hickory smoke' and 'Black soot' DI to color the square. Mica powder + water in a spray = shiny misting spray on top of the distress inked and stenciled embossed background. 
For the bluish bacground inside: The stencil was flipped over with the remaining embossing ink on it for a second print, which kind of looked cooler than the first!

Goth Fairy Ambrosia!

Wow! Tredje bloggposten i dag, tror øynene mine er blitt firkanta og hendene mine er vel helt ødelagt :P Men det var vel verdt ei våkenatt for å få alt inn. Beklager om jeg har vært litt fraværende rundt om bloggland, har ikke mye overskudd igjen nå..

Ble veldig fornøyd med dette kortet (sjeldent at jeg får en idé og klarer å fullføre uten å endre på alt så jeg ender opp med noe helt annet enn jeg startet med), ble akkurat sånn jeg så for meg!  ♥

...

Også denne gangen har vi to flotte sponsorer i utfordring #106. hos Creative Fingers ~ Holly Durr Art & Scrap N' Dipity som mitt motiv er fra. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema :) 

Phew.. this is my third blogpost today.. Ever heard that you'll get square eyes if you watch the tv or pc for too long? :P *lol* what they use to say to children to make them go out and do something active for a change.. Well I am sure my eyes gotta be square by now, feels like it anyways! Up all night, and my fingers aches.. 
But I am very satisfied with how this card turned out ♥ Made the angelic looking fairy a goth makeover, and the idea I had for the card ended up like I pictured it in my mind, so that's a first! Usually NEver ends up looking like I plan! ;)

For this fortnights challenge #106. at Creative Fingers ~ we are again so lucky to have two sponsors: Holly Durr Art & Scrap N' Dipity who gave us lovely digis to work with ♥ And as always the theme is ~ Anything goes, and you are welcome to join! :)
