♥ EyeCandy ♥

 
This is a first! I'm sharing this EyeCandy wallpaper that I've created for my desktop, with some of my ♥ favourite hot & sexy guys from the tv & movie screen... To get your own (in higher resolution size: 1024 x 768) go to the bottom of my blog and click on the piccie there. The image will open as the wallpaper, rightclick on it and set as desktop background. You can also find some sepia versions of this -> here. Let me know what you think! And also wich guy is YOUR favourite EyeCandy! :) Enjoy! 

Update: NO LONGER AVAILABLE.. Sorry!

Dragon & Doggie Love...

To enkle og veldig rosa kort! Drager er mitt favoritt fantasi-dyr! ♥ Jeg elsker å lese Fantasy og jeg er født i dragens år. Har tilogmed to drage-tattiser!!! Denne er bare helt herlig å male - og så fin i seg selv at det trengs ikke mye pynt. Passet perfekt til den aller første utfording hos Sir Stampalot, 'Fantasy!'. De har en månedtlig utfordring - det liker jeg veldig = god tid! Bruker alltid ellers å komme med i siste liten *lol*
Penny Black hundene er bare sååå søte! Og Cute Card Thursdays utfordring #107. er 'Mono Mania', og mine farger på dette kortet er rosa-lilla, går i samme monokromatiske toner det vel? ;)

Two very simple and veeery pink cards today! Sir Stampalot has a new monthly challenge blog, wich I so appriciate, since I will have oodles of time to get the card in before the deadline! :) The blog itself is easy on the eyes and no fuzz, so I'll be coming back again for sure! My card for their April challenge is ofcourse the dragon since the theme is 'Fantasy'. I ♥ everything fantasy, especially dragons :) I'm born in the year of the dragon, I read fantasy books & I even have two dragon tattoos :)
For the next card, Cute Card Thursday challenge #107. is 'Mono Mania!'; This week we want to see your creations using shades of just one colour.... Hope I did the theme right - looking at the dt's cards I see reds with pinks & black with browns, so I think that lilac & pink will do nicely ;)

a Splenda Box!

Scrappekammeret's utfordring #4 er Alternative Scrappesaker: å grave frem noe man ikke vanligvis bruker, og vri hjernen til noe kreativt kommer ut! Hehe.. Jeg lette ikke lenge da jeg skulle gi bort en gave til en av mine brødre - og puttet den i en tom Splenda boks som jeg dekorerte litt. Den kan han jo senere putte spiker, skruer og andre gutteting oppi! :)


The norwegian challengeblog Scrappekammeret had this alternative theme - to use something real original, and something u rarely use. And I rarely scrap empty house supplies boxes! This was a gift for my brother - to keep those boy-things like odd screws & rusted nails in :)

Main Stamp: Forever Friends - Tool Kit. Patterned stamp: Stampington & Co. Clearly Impressed - Fresh Flowers Elements set by Christine Adolph. Text: Kreativ Hobby - Billett Venn.

winnie the pooh bear!

Fant denne utfordrings bloggen - Cute Bears Challenge - for alle oss som elsker bamser i alle variasjoner!! :) Denne uken er det #5 - lilla + en teddy.
Jeg hadde et printet ole brum bilde liggende, men lilla var vel heller smått i scrapperiene, så det ble et nokså enkelt kort.

I put this text inside the card > Loosely translates to:
Piglet went closer to Pooh. "Pooh!" he whispered. "Yes, Piglet?" "Nothing", said Piglet and took his paw. "I just wanted to make sure you were really here.."

Just found this sweet challenge blog: Cute Bears Challenge, and with a pooh bear pic printed out and somehow finding some lilac in my stuff, I came up with this card for the challenge of the week #5 - Lilac :)
