Beautifull Love!

Å så deilig å sette seg ned og lage kort! Etter at både mandag og tirsdag har vært 'tur til tannlegen dager'... Både den plagsomme kvasse kanten på en jeksel er slipt ned og den dyre tanna med krøllete røtter ~ tannlegen sa 'S-formet rot' så jeg er glad den ikke måtte trekkes, bare drepes og rotfylles og betales i dyre dommer på... *au au* Men gliset er strålende bra nå :)
 Den siste samlingen digitale freebies på utfordringen hos CDAC hadde et kjempenydelig ADFD stempel som jeg simpelthen måtte fargelegge ~ som jeg aldri blir trøtt av å si: Jeg elsker A day for Daisies digis'ene! ♥

In the latest CDAC challenge there was this gorgeous digi from Tammy at ADFD! ♥ It was pure joy to get my inks out & create a card, after two days with dentist appointments... not very keen on rootfillings & those metal thingies that have jagged edges & is screwed down around the tooth.. u know what I'm talking about? Grinded into your gums.. *jikes* Needless to say I'm glad I'm not going back for at least a year *fingers crossed* :)

a Whimsy Home!

Tror aldri jeg har strevd mere med et kort før! CLP (se link under) sin skisse utfordring gjorde nesten at jeg halveis i kortlagingen holdt på å kaste hele greia... og det var en helt enkel og grei skisse tilogmed!! 
Klarer aldri å se for meg hva jeg skal bruke før underveis, så skisser er altså ikke helt min ting nei.. ;)

Gratulations on a New Home!

Struggled really hard with this sketch from CLP ~ almost gave up even if it was a nice an neat one! Think sketches aren't really my thing ~ more of a 'make things up as I go along creating' type *lol*

Lady Victoria's ♥ Cupcakes!

Kenny K's digistempler er bare SÅ kule ~ sexy beibs og hotte mannfolk... Dette er Lady Victoria, en av flere råstilige steampunk bærter :)

♥ Et Kjempetips til alle digi-fans: 

Nå har jeg begyndt å gå over digistempel-trykkene som jeg printer ut (inkjet Canon) med luftpistolen min, først en gang - kjølne, så en gang til - kjølne, og kansje gjenta enda en gang... Dette funker kjempebra!!! Trykkene blir så og si vannfast, selv om det er 'vanlig' inkjet printer, og jeg har ødelagt alltfor mange trykk når jeg har malt dem tidligere (altså med distress inks på akvarellark).

Kenny K's stamps are just awesome ~ I LUV the cheekyness of the sexy guys & girls! Especially the steampunk babes, they are all steaming with hottness! :)

Go over your digital print (aquarelle/watercolor paper) with a heatgun! First once and let it cool off, repeat two, three or more times. It really works wonders ~ it's almost as good as using permanent stamp inkpads! :)

Happy today! ♥ Won the previous challenge over at ADFD ~ wich means more beautiful digistamps for me :) My card today was quick to do ~ I already had a cute stamp inked up & paperpieced, all ready to glitter & glam up on a card!

A great tip is to diecut the cardstock u use for the card itself, and use 

the diecut two ways ~ one on the front of the card, and when u layer and

decorate the card u get a neat frame on the inside of the card as well :)

Giordano kitten card ♥

This charming image comes from the Giordano's Puppies and Kittens CD, wich I got here from Joanna Sheen.

♥ Godt Nytt År 2012! ♥

Mine nyttårsforsett: Å starte opp igjen på lavkarboen ~ får håpe det funker iår!... Å endelig få uteboden lagd inredet til scrapperom ~ og å innskrenke pengeforbruket når det gjelder scrappeting i hytt og pine... *lol*
 Er bare såååå mye nytt stæsj og stempler jeg bare må ha hele tiden! Fikk iallefall brukt opp masser med bazzill restepapir til dette kortet ~ alltids kjekt det, istedenfor å kaste i boss bøtta :)

Let the Joy of winter

warm your Heart.

♥  Happy New Years!  ♥  

I have some newyears resolutions for 2012: 
To start up with a new lowcarb diet (wich I failed miserably at last year)... 
To finally make my new scraproom in the outside storage room ~ I think it's about 3x3 meters so there should be enough room! 
And also to cut back on the money use on scrapping stash & stamps... Wich I have TONS of already,  and can never ever get to use up *lol*
 I really enjoyed making the bottom panel of this card ~ a great effect with little effort! It's made out of a whole bunch of scrap cardstock strips I had leftover after scoring tons of base cards in 15x15 cm. It's great to see the scraps put to good use instead of tossing them in the bin :)

Nok et nydelig digistempel fra Tammy S. Thompson, kunstneren bak 'A day for Daisies'. Jeg har mailet frem og tilbake med henne en stund nå, kjempehyggelig dame! Og om ikke lenge så vil jeg vise frem to stempler hun har designet for meg! Hadde et par barndomsbilder av meg selv, og de har blitt nydelige i digital form :)

♥  ♥  ♥

Another awesome stamp from A day for Daisies, Dragon Cutie. When I saw this vintage key digi by Prairie Fairie, I just had to have it ~ it looks great under her arm right? I've used a scalpel to the arm and slid the keyparts through, with cushions underneath, so it looks really 3D.
Tammy who's the artist behind ADFD, has created two custom stamps for me, from a couple of childhood photos of myself ~ looking forward to sharing how they turned out on the blog ~ absolutely gorgeous!
