Happily Ever After

Friday, July 3, 2009

This weekend Marie, the founder of The Greeting Farm, is getting married. The DT has decided to make some wedding cards to celebrate Marie's big day!
I used the Cake Topper Set from The Greeting Farm on this card. Both the image and sentiment is from that set. Around the image I stamped some swirls from SU. I used Shimmerz Spritz Mudpie on the image to make it sparkle.
Papers are from Creative Imaginations.


On the flowers I used Spritz Eucalyptus and Concrete. When it dried up I assembled the flowers to the card before I sprayed Mudpie all over the card.
Do you see how it all sparkles?!?!? I hope Marie will sparkle too on her wedding day:)

Club Anya Sneak Peek July - Soccer Ian

Tuesday, June 30, 2009

Please welcome Soccer Ian - he is the new Digital Stamp from Club Anya this month, and this is my sneak peek of this cool stamp. I am so in love with him. This is the stamp I've been waiting for! It will make it so much easier to make cards for teenage boys and other soccer fans.
This card is made for my father in law who has birthday in July. His favourite team is West Ham, so I coloured the image in West Ham colours, and tried to find matching papers also!

I coloured the image with Pro Markers and Touch Markers. The papers I used are from On The Dot, Making Memories and Fiskars. The round sentiment is from Papirdesign and the other stamp is from Papirgleder. I used some Spellbinders dies and a SU punch also. Ribbons are from my stash.
Make sure you visit the other team members' blogs to see their creations with this stamp.

2009 in Photos - Week 26

Sunday, June 28, 2009

The two images I've chosen as the photos of the week, really represents what summer is to me. Walkin' bare feet all day long, and berries are so refreshing;)
This week has been all about summer. It's been so hot, I even had a swim(it's only 16 degress celsius in the ocean)!
The photos are from a photo shoot I had on Friday. I took some cute photos of 3 year old Lukas. I will edit the rest of the photos the next days, so you can soon find the rest of the photo shoot in my PORTFOLIO.

It's A Boy

Here is a baby card I made with the new stamp set from Club Anya, Oh Baby! The papers are from Maja Design and Melissa Frances. The cute felt embellishment is something a friend bought for me in Nice. The ribbon is from Nille.

The cute baby boy and the teddy are coloured with Distress Ink Refillers.
The flowers are from Prima, Papirloftet and Wild Orchid Crafts. They are sprayed with Shimmerz Spritz Babys Breath. The sentiments are from the Oh Baby stamp set too. I used a word window punch from SU on the sentiments.

Some news....

Saturday, June 20, 2009

No card from me today, but I can share some news with you.

I just found out that the card I made for the Top 20 at the 2S4Y 1st Annual Ultimate Card Showdown, is shown on the Cosmo Cricket blog ;) You can see it HERE. I used some of the papers from the Everafter series on the card.
I also wanted to tell you that I have decided to leave the Papirgleder Design Team. It was a hard decision to make because all the lovely DT members have become such good friends of mine. I love you all :) Thanks for all the great moments we've shared together in real life and on the chat room!
I wish you all a lovely weekend!

Sukkersøtt 45 - Monochromatic Card

Friday, June 19, 2009

Remember that today is the last day of the Shimmerz Birthday Blog Hop.
So if you want to win the grand prize of Shimmerz products, go visit the Shimmerz Blog!!

Det fredag og jeg har ferie og friiiii! Og det er også tid for ukens utfordring hos Sukkersøtt. Denne gangen skal du lage et monokromatisk kort, altså et kort som går i forskjellige toner av bare èn farge. Som regel kan du lage et monokromatisk kort og allikevel bruke litt hudfarge, sort eller hvitt, men vi vil denne gangen bare se èn eneste fargetone i hele kortet ditt. Fargen velger du selv.
Today the challenge at Sukkersött is to make a monochromatic card. Usually you're allowed to use some skin colour, white and black. But this time we will only see ONE colour on the card, of course in different shades. You choose the colour!

Kortet mitt ble laget i bruntoner. Jeg trengte et gutte-bursdagskort og da fant jeg ut at brunt ble bra. Papirene jeg har brukt er fra Cosmo Cricket, Crate Paper og Scenic Route.
I made my card in browns. Papers are from Cosmo Cricket, Crate Paper and Scenic Route.

Ian er fra Club Anya, og har jeg laget klær og hår til ham ved å stemple på forskjellige mønsterark og klippe ut. Klærne er fra det nye Wardrobe stempelsettet som kom nå i juni. Jeg brukte en Dark Brown stempelpute. Rundt Ian har jeg stemplet med stempler fra Visual Artistry serien til Tim Holtz.
Ian is from Club Anya stamps. I paper pieced the clothes and his hair. The clothes are from the new Wardrobe stamp set from the June release. I used Dark Brown ink. Around Ian I stamped with some stamps from Tim Holtz' Visual Artistry stamps.

Jeg har pyntet med en brun filtbord fra Panduro, litt brun tyll, en knap og litt scrappers floss.
I decorated with a felt border from Panduro, brwon tulle, a button and some scrappers floss.


Tag'en har jeg fått fra Heidi. Jeg stemplet først med et blomster-stempel fra Visual Artistry Tim Holtz. Da brukte jeg Sepia stempelpute. Så brukte jeg Dark Brown stempelpute til å stemple teksten med. The tag was given to me by Heidi. First I stamped with a flower stamps from the TIm Holtz Visual Artistry collection. I used Sepia ink. Then I used Dark Brown ink to stamp the sentiment.
