Scrapping the Music - på norsk!

Scrapping the Music - på norsk!!! En ny utfordrings blogg som hver 14 dag skal legge ut en sang/video som man skal scrappe. Høres kjempegøy ut! Ikke ofte jeg lager LO'er for tiden, går det mest i kort - men kommer den rette sangen for meg så! :) De har en blogcandy / RAK akkurat nå - frist 3 januar 2009.

Har lagd masser av julekort de siste dagene, skal legge inn noen her imorgen, akkurat nå er det leggetid... :)

Under the Blanket...

Jeg har funnet et nytt forum - RubberstampsChat.net, et lite men koselig forum :) En ny venn derfra, Jeanette, har blogget om meg! H20 Creations - så moro!

BlogCandy: Vibeke har hatt masser av besøk i bloggen sin, Scrapping og Skrytebilder, og feirer med bloggcandy!!! (Frist: 16 desember) Og det er en overraskelse hva man kan vinne! Kjempegøy :)

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!!! :)
Stamps/Image: Ladybug and friends ~ Rachelle Anne Miller stamp 'Under the blanket'.
Paper: Bazzill, and Making Memories - Noteworthy journaling.
Embellishments: The ribbon is from American Crafts. The flower is from Prima - Painterly Petals 'Dude'. MM brad. I've used Ranger Tim Holtz distress embossing powder on the edges of the stamp-motif, wich is painted with aquarelle paint - H2O and Distress Ink. And (as always) I like distressing the paper a bit with ink as well :)

Ble en litt 'vintage feeling' på dette kortet - disse wild asparagus mønsterarkene er så nydelige!
Og challengen hos Cupcake Craft var Challenge 16 - Vintage. Kortet er laget etter denne flotte skissen til MichelleO.

The challenge at Cupcake Craft #16 is 'Vintage'. I really love the old-looking papers from MME Wild Asparagus, and I'm much more into earth-tones than pink & baby-blues... *lol* :) I've used this great sketch by MichelleO.

Paper: My Minds Eye - Wild Asparagus "Dad" paisley/brown paper, and bazzill.

WOJ card ~ Til en liten venn :)

Fikk ikke sendt inn dette kortet til forrige WOJ challengen, som var ei skisse, men denne uken har A spoon full of sugar en flott challenge som passer perfekt! ;) #25. er å lage et kort til et barn. Didn't get to send this card in for the last WOJ challenge, but #25. at A spoon full of sugar, wich is A card for a kid - goes well with this one too :)

Stamps/Image: Whiff of Joy, Charlie - building snowman. Text-stamps: Big one from Kreativ Hobby, the other is unknown to me.

Paper: Bazzill cardstock, and pattern papers are unknown, exept for the 'ric-rac' one, wich is from Chatterbox.

Embellishments: Panduro Hobby brads. And in the inner circle of 'KLEM', I've used glossy accents from Ranger - an excellent versatile medium.

Milda Matilda is smiling! :)

Jeg elsker Magnolia og Hänglene mine, men ofte så syns jeg ansiktene blir alltfor kjedelige.. Og dette kortet trengte ett smiiil! :) Denne uken har Cute card Thursday en challenge, #36, der man skal bruke Rødt + Grønt! Jeg tittet først på DT kortene for å se hvordan de hadde løst denne, og siden man kan bruke flere enn kun de to fargene, så lagde jeg et skikkelig fargerikt kort :)

I thought this magnolia-card called for a BIG smile :) The Cute card Thursday blog challenge this week is # 36: Use Red + Green on your card.

On this card: I've used bazzill and unknown papers - the one with the watering-can is from a shop called 'Nille'.

The stamp is from Magnolia 'Milda Matilda'. I also used Quickutz shapes, and the alphabet is Chemistry. (The text reads: Thanks)

"I do believe in fairies, I do, I do, I DO!"

Mye engler og alver for tiden... sitatet over er forresten fra Peter Pan ;) Cute card Thursday har en challenge gående #35, med en Fairie + Angels theme. Så jeg hentet frem et av stempeltrykkene mine, og printet ut en kjekk 'engel' fra webben :)

At Cute Card Thursday there is a perfect challenge for me, #35 - as I do LOVE fairies and angels :) However - I do believe in fairies, angels... not so much! *lol* ;)

Stamps/Image: The sexy angel is found on the web, and printed on cardstock. 'Fairy on Daisy' from Stamps Happen Inc. I've used See~D's 'Bella Flora' from Inque Boutique. Text stamps are from Cat's Pajamas (valentine) and Paperartsy (fairy).
Paper: Bazzill ofcourse, and DCWV patterned paper; On the fairy card - from Nana's Nursery pack - Baby Boy. On Sexy angel card I've used 'Glitr BW stripe'. Also the red text backing paper is from Prima - Cherub.
Embellishments: The ribbon is from Creative Imaginations - Marah Johnson collection. QK Cupid with bow & arrow. Prima painterly Petals - Harmony. Making Memories - Brads, and 'Pearls' from Kaisercraft.

Cute Angel card

Kjempefin skisseutfordring inne på Sketch Saturday denne gangen!
sketch #24. Og man kan vinne ett Sarah Kay stempel - noe med de aller fineste stemplene jeg vet om :) Det ble et veldig enkelt kort, men med et så fint bakgrunnsark, så ville jeg ikke 'overstæsje' heller :)
This is made for sketch #24. at Sketch Saturday Challenge. A simple yet great sketch, and so versatile! I love theese angel images - so cute :)

Stamps/Image: The angel is found on the web, and printed on cardstock. The border/blonde-stamp is from Scrapmagasinet - 36B. And the text is from Kort & Godt. (=To someone I love)
Paper: Bazzill and the beautiful backing is 'Dinas tapet' from 3ndypapir.no
Embellishments: The ribbon I don't know where its from, probably Maya Road? ;)

Teenage card - Vroooom!

Dette kortet er ganske typisk guttekort, men ei og annen jente liker det vel også? Jeg synes det ble kjempekult! :) Passet til denne challengen: "Challenge 7 - Card for a Teenager" hos Lili of the Valley, en challenge blogg jeg nylig fant - hvor man kan bruke hvilke stempler/bilder man vil, og det behøver ikke være et kort eller lo. Kjekt med noen slike også ;) Dette kortet ble gitt bort som konfirmasjonskort, og det passer jo bra som det :)

The #7. challenge on this new blog I found, Lili of the Valley - is to make a card for a teenager. And this is certainly not for weakhearted grandmas or small innocent children, but suits both a teenage boy, or a frisky 'dude' or 'chick'.... ;)

On this card...
Stamps/Images: Norwegian textstamp (wich translates to: best wishes for the day and the future) from Kreativ Hobby, and the hottie is a pic from somwhere on the web (?) printed on white bazzill.
Paper: Bazzill cardstock, and 'Reaction' a Crate Paper from the Static Collection - I LOVE theese!
Embellishments: Ì kan' déé from Pebbles Inc have great twine! I've used my silentsetter to make holes, then I sew with the twine, added an chinese coin (?) good luck charm - and made a knot :)

CupCake - Sarah Kay Card

Dette kortet er inspirert av bildet under, til challengen hos Cupcake Craft Ch. #12. Stempeltrykket er et Sarah Kay ved navn Precious Moment. Ellers se nederst i innlegget :)

Inspirasjonsbildet / Here is the inspiration photo:

And here's one of the latest cards I've made. For the Cupcake Craft Challenge blog. My first entry at this cute page! Challenge 12 - Inspiration.

Stamps: Sarah Kay - Precious Moment, Kanji - chinese signs.

Paper: Bazzill, Making Memories - Noteworthy journaling.

Ribbon: From Scrappers Choice (made of paper).

Gran Canaria - Fotos!

Endelig litt blogging igjen ;) Har ikke hatt ork å legge inn kort, å skrive innlegg den siste tiden etter jeg kom hjem fra syden. Faktisk var det nesten sånn at jeg trengte ferie ETTER ferien!! Faren min har langt fremskreden altzheimers, så vi hadde det litt slitsomt, og i tillegg er hverken moren min sin eller min egen helse å skryte av ;) Men vi hadde det fint alikevel, leste ut iallefall 8 bøker, bla. Dorothy Koomson - Kjærligheten til et barn - Nyyydelig bok! :)
Jeg og moren min malte masse fine stempletrykk, og jeg har laget noen kort etter jeg kom hjem, som jeg skal legge ut snart :)

Vi fartet litt rundt omkring, men mest de siste to ukene. Mamma trådde over og skadet foten så mye at hun måtte gå med krykker de to første ukene! Det var litt kjipt, for vi kom oss aldri til Las Palmas, og jeg som hadde så lyst å vise mamma rundt der! Vakker by. Spesielt den gamle bydelen :) Hadde også planlagt den store øyturen, med buss innover øya, se guanchenes huler og gå på markedet i Teror. Og vi skulle se sandyner i Maspalomas og kameler, som heller ikke ble noe av.. Lite shopping ble det jo - pappa er ikke veldig tålmodig akkurat, men si meg et mannfolk som vil shoppe? *lol* Neste gang kansje.

Vi fikk sett Palmitos Park iallefall, dit har jeg hatt lyst å vært hver gang jeg har vært der nede. I fjor brant dyreparken ned til grunnen, og det er helt fantastisk at de har bygd den opp igjen så fort! Og det er utrolig pent der - absolutt en opplevelse verdt å få med seg :) Tok massevis av bilder denne gangen - sånn ca. 800 bilder! - her er noen 'få'! Favorittbildet mitt er av surikattene - elsker de små tassene!! :)

Sydenbilder sept-oktober08

I'm baaa-ack!!! ;) Haven't kept up my blog after I got home from Gran Canaria, been somewhat pre-occupied with other stuff.. But I have made some cards wich I'll post later on! :) Click on the pic of my mum to go my photo-album of our vacation - there are some great shots of suricats (?), a beautiful orchid and a butterfly, a cuddly orangutang, gruesome phyton snake mm. It wasn't easy I tell you.. One great shot equals 10 bad ones! ;)

Sunny Greetings!!!

En liten hilsen fra Gran Canaria! Her har vi det varmt - opp i 31 grader *stönn*... Alltfor varmt! Jeg og moren min jubler naar det kommer skyer i horisonten *lol* Vi har det kjempefint her nede - var paa stranden, Amadores i dag, herlig varmt i sjoen! :) Ellers for aa bedrive tiden her nede, saa har jeg sittet og malt stempeltrykk som jeg hadde med meg nedover. Har hatt mye ´nedetid´pga. daarlige rygger og fötter... Skulle önske jeg hadde flere trykk med meg!! :) Blir masse nye kort naar jeg kommer hjem igjen :D

Greetings from Gran Canaria! We´re having hot hot hot weather here! Up to a whopping 31 degrees celsius! TOO Hot... Me and my mum is most happy to see clouds on the horizon *lol* I´m painting tons of stamp motifs I had with me, so when I get home, lots of cards will be poppin out! :)

Gran Canaria - Here I come!!!

Reiser til Gran Canaria - foreldrene mine og jeg, om bare noen timer :) Litt reisefeber nå! *lol* Her er bilder av der vi skal bo, i en hel mnd.! Så det blir stille en stund her på siden, med mindre jeg kommer meg på en internettcafè! :)
Her er hotellet vårt, Balito Beach - som ligger midt mellom Argueneguin og Puerto Rico. Håper turen går bra og vi får en fin leilighet! :)

In a few hours, me and my parents are going on vacation to the Canary Islands! And we're staying at a hotel named Balito Beach on Gran Canaria, between Puerto Rico and Argueneguin.

Sarah Kay box!

Moren min kom hjem igår fra Tromsø (-> se tidligere innlegg Baby kort), og fikk denne i gave fra meg :) Det er en metallboks som det har vært te oppi, veldig flott til å ha småtterier i, og hun likte den kjempegodt :)
Og den passet fint til denne utfordringen hos Sarah Kay Challenges #11. Trio of papers! Og etter litt blogghopping i dag, så fant jeg denne blogcandyen hos BevsCrafts Blog! Nydelig stempel og stæsj :)


My mum came home from her trip to Tromsø yesterday and was very happy to get this box I've made for her, out of an english tea tin-box. I've used an Sarah Kay stamp, and three matching papers, so it was perfect for the Sarah Kay Challenges #11. Trio of papers!

The box: Sarah Kay stamp-motif 'Sarah on the farm'. Painted with H2O, Tim Holtz - distress Ink, and aquarelle.

Papers are Basic Grey Stella Ruby collection - Springtime soiree & Garden Party. DCWV Once upon a time collection - Enchanted Paisley.

Have also used decoupage glue, sandpaper, QK goosebumpz circles, Spellbinder nestabilities scalloped oval dies, & Retro flowers Punches.

Ooooh! Go check out this Great Whiff of Joy candy at Bev's blog! :)

Do you have music on your blog?

Oh, I do SO wish people would set their musicplayers on their blogs to pause! - it's really annoying to suddenly have a kaos of sounds coming at you from several different sites, and you have no idea where.. I often play music myself when I'm surfing, so you can see it's annoying? Many times, more than not, I close the page as soon as I can, without looking at the page - especially if the musicplayer is nowhere to be seen!

Before I got my new (and much faster) computer, I actually experienced that the internet 'froze up' cause' of too many applications/gadgets on blogs.. no commands working, so I needed to shut down and start up again - now, THAT'S annoying!

So this is a plea - Please set the player to pause if possible! And if not, please remove it for the benefit of the ones who want to see your creations! :)

Lost Boys, Matrix, The Neverending Story, Back to the Future, Mad Max, LOTR, E.T ++ But an alltime fave number one is Dirty Dancing :) The moment when Patrick says "Nobody puts Baby in the corner".. Ooooh! My first crush ;) seen it a hundred+ times *lol*

...An english only blogentry for once, my thoughts were somehow thought in english and not norwegian today, and I'm just banking on people knowing their school-english well enough *lol* ;)

Nytt babykort! Pink :)

Challengen hos Cutecard Thursday # 26. var å lage et rooosa kort :) Men jeg rekker nok ikke fristen :( Internettet krasja totalt ikveld, har ikke kommet meg inn på bloggen min, bare innlogging funker, men ikke å lage nytt innlegg!

Nok et babykort, med Panduro's Tilda baby stempel og rundt tekststempel fra Kreativ Hobby, :)

The challenge at Cutecard Thursday this time was to make a really pink card. I did but haven't gotten into my blog today - totally crashdown :( Well, it will be a sweet card for someone :)

The card: Panduro Tilda - baby stamp, Kreativ Hobby txt stamp, Noteworthy paper, bazzill, Prima painterly petals, QK leaf.

Scrappekjøkkenet mitt & Baby kort :)

Lenge siden jeg postet noe her nå :) Har vært så opptatt med å få iorden scrappekjøkkenet mitt, det var så rotete at jeg begyndte å mistrives..
Fant jo ikke frem i alle esker og duppeditter! ;) Men nå er det perfekt orden! Eller... *hehe* :) Ser litt rotete ut enda kansje, men hovedsaken er at jeg finner det jeg trenger!

På bildet under har jeg funnet på noe kjempesmart til stemplene mine! Jeg har jo de fleste EZ-monterte i sorte permer (attmed arkene på bilde 3), men inni skapet her ser du sånne gjennomsiktige esker som har vært havreflarn og sjokoladeflarn oppi! De passet fint til alle clearstemplene og stempelsett som ellers tok opp utrolig mye plass liggende her og der, hengende på vegger osv. -- Tips til Scrappemania - Mitt scrappeparadis :) Utfordringen i bloggen der er nettopp å komme med oppbevaringsløsninger og tips til scrapperom, så det passet utmerket :)

Been some time since my last post, but organizing my scrappingkitchen took more time than I thought :) It was long overdue - it had begun to be difficult to find stuff I needed - and still, after hours and hours of work - it still is a messy scraproom - but cozy :)

---

Jeg lagde et søtt baby kort i går - til mitt nye søskenbarn! Min onkel Johnny, som bor i tromsø, og hans kone Marifel fikk en skjønn liten gutt i helga! Moren min skal reise oppover i natt med hurtigruta, og da må hun jo ha med seg et fint hjemmelaget kort sammens med gaven de får! :)

And I've even made a card yesterday! For my new cousin in Tromsø :) My uncle Johnny and his wife Marifel had a cute little baby boy last weekend, and my mum is going to visit them so ofcourse she needs a homemade card to bring along with the gift!

The card: Panduro Tilda - baby stamp, Noteworthy paper, bazzill, Prima flowers, mesh ++

---
