Your 3rd Birthday!

This card was made for my daughters second cousins third birthday party
 that was yesterday.
We had a wonderful time, and it was the most amazing weather.
The last two days have been just like the best days we get during summer,
I am actually burned, and I Love It!

For this card I have used papers from Magnolia and Maja Design.
I also used a doily die, got it from a friend so I dont know who made it. 


The Image is from Lili Of the Valley,
and I Volored her with Distress Reinkers.
I have used Vitcorian Velvet and I think the yellow is Mustard Seed.
Black Soot for her shows, and Wethered Wood for shading.
The kake is Vintage Photo, and Broken China for the plate.
Her hair is Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain, and her skin
is a mixture of Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo, with Victorian Velvet
for blush. 


I used a lot of Star Dust Stickles, Liquid Pearls, and Chalkboard
Glimmer mist. I lay it on so heavy that it sometimes blend the colors a bit,
it happened here, you can se it by the cake. Still, I love it so much!
You cas see the mist a bit too in t his photo.

So I was completely out of "white" Bazzil! Crisis!
As I was ordering more I endulged a little bit,
among a few other things I got these cute Magnolia Fan Dies.
I put them om Twine from Wild Orchid Crafts, and but a number 3
on each, that I dabbed with paint and put Stickles on.

I also used flowers from WOC, and lots of pearls.

Under the Sea Tilda *CLP*

First, thank you all for thinking about Sofie.
She had a bad case of Chicken Pox,
her face was covered and they where in her mouth and everywhere,
is was horrible for a week, but she is well now, and the blisters are still healing. 

May is here, and it is beginning to look like spring,
but we still get a few showers of snow that doesn`t stick.
Cant wait for summer! From now and until the middle of June I have
bachelor and exams. And when that is over,
I have to start packing, because we have bought ourselves a house!
So July will be spent painting, but also preparing a bit for our December wedding.

Today I want to show you a card that I am sending over the Atlantic,
to the most beautiful little girl with progeria.
I follow her page on Facebook, and she is so sweet,
and her posts always make me smile,
and she seems like a girlie girl, so I wanted so send her a greeting
with a lot of flowers and stuff. 


I have used papers from Maja Design, Magnolia paper and Magnolia
pacaging paper. I also used a heart doily and some cloth. 
This is my card for the May Sketch at CLP,
love this sketch. :) Come join us!


Mermaid Tilda is colored with Distress Reinkers,
and I used Liquid Pearl around her and Star Dust Stickles on
the bubbles. The entire card is covered with a HEAVY layer of
Chalkboard Glimmer Mist. 


I made a bow from jute mesh from Ribbon Girl, and added
a button and berries also from RG.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Kort og Godt,
and I used a swirl die and some beads that once was on
one of Sofies jewelery, it broke the first day. :p


I have here a bottle from Panduro, inside it is a mixture of
Star Dust Stickle, glitter and beads.
I have used my Snow Wrighter to create some texture. 





I hace used lace, ribbon and pompoms, all from Ribbon Girl.
I also used pearl string all around the card.
The pearl charmes are from Tim Holts, 
and are tied to twine, to create something like a banner?

Gorjuss and Pearly

Today my daughter was going to a birthday party
to the only other child who is born the same year as she,
but she has finally gotten the chicken pox, I have been waiting for weeks
for them to break out, so she has to stay home. We are just walking
over there to deliver a gift and this card I made yesterday,
Sofie is wrighting and drawing her own greating inside.
She actually is great with letters,
and she draws the cutest little "men" with just a head and feet. :)


The papers I have used is from Maja Design,
(I just love this paper!!), and a couple of Magnolia packaging.
The scallopet frame is a paper from Inkido with newspaper-print.
I also dabbed some gesso over the card. 



I sprayed on quite a heavy layer of Chalkboard Glimmer Mist,
and added Star Dust Stickles to the clothes, letters and butterflies. 



This Gorjuss image is colored with Distress Reinkers.
I layered some colors to make the dress look purple-greyish
and glimmering. She was supposed to be almost blonde, but she
kept getting darker and darker. ;)


I just love these fabric flowers,
these are the last ones I had. They are from Wild Orchid Crafts,
and so are the roses, pearl string, lace and rose ribbon. 



The letters are from American Crafts. The large pearls,
the cheese cloth and the guipure lace are from Ribbon Girl. 



The key charm is from Ribbon Girl,
and I used an angel and a heart charm that I 
got for christmas, my sweet friend Elaine made those. :)
I tied them up with string. 
The butterflies are from my Martha Stewart puncher.

Tilda has a Secret *CLP DT*

My mothers 43th birthday is comming up (yes, she had me
when she was very young), and I wanted to make
her something special. I am almost out of Vanilla Bazzil,
(oh, the horror!), so I decided to make a paper bag card,
witch would be pefect to hide her gift inside. She and her housband
gets consert tickets to se Leonard Cohen with me and my fiancee,
we both love him. So I hope she is not in here snooping on my blog. ;)


I made this card from the gorgeous scetch at CLP
hope to see you all there. ;) I have been a bad team-member for the
last few months, but lucily Chelsea havent asked me to leave yet. ;)

The key is from Tim Holtz, it says "Secret",
refering to the gift of course. ;)
I used string, staples and glued on some buttons from Ribbon Girl
to make sure the card could be opened a little bit,
and I used my Martha Stewart lacy hearts. 


I colored Tilda with Distress Reinkers.
Shabby Shutters and Peeled Paint for her dress,
Walnut Stain and Pumice Stone for shoes and socks,
Victorian Velvet and Star Dust Stickles for the balloon,
and Wethered Wood and Pumice Stone for shading.
I also used Liquid Pearl around the image, 
I think it looks like magic dust or something. :)


I got these wonderful zippers at Ribbon Girl,
I think they are so much fun to embellish with!
The flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts, except
from the pink one on top, its from Papirloftet.
I also used some brads.




I used my Martha Stewart butterfly punch, and covered them with
Star Dust Stickles. It had not dried yet when I took the picture,
so it looks a bit vierd. 



The ribbon and lace are both from Ribbon Girl.
I also added some pearl, love it when they come in rows like this!



The papers are from Inkido and Magnolia, and I used a heart doily,
but I have almost covered it up. Oh well. ;)
I also have a row of lace from my Martha Stewart Punch.

Thank you to those who still visit me! 
Midweek Magnolias - Favourite stamp
(She has a great dress, not that difficult hair,
I love the balloon and she is so usable!)

made for my stepmoms birthday. 
I love the image from Pretty Vintage, but if was hard to use and find
the right design for it.
I used paper from Maja Design, a doily, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts,
lace and jute and ribbon and pearls from Ribbon Girl.

Spring time

Today I finished yet another kleenex cover.
I wanted to make something for easter,
but not a card, and then I decided it could be easter/spring,
so the decoration would last longer.

I always keep a box of kleenex in the living room,
so now I can change it with the seasons. ;)


The paper I have used is from Magnolia.
I distresset the edges with Walnut Stain. The base is made from
Bazzil Kraft. 


Tilda is colored with Distress Reinkers.
I used Antique Linen and Vintage Photo for her hair,
Tattered Rose, Vintage Photo and Victorian Velvet for her skin,
Pumice Stone for the egg shell, Wethered Wood and Black Soot
for shading, and Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmelade and
a yellow that I cant remember the name of. :p


The letters are from Prima.
I used jute mesh, cheese cloth, pompoms  and ribbon from The Ribbon Girl,
and some lace. 


I love the zipper, it is from Ribbon Girl! I used a couple of Prima flowers,
and the rest is from Wild Orchid Crafts. I also have some plastic flowers,
and the swirly branches from Kort og Godt. 


I finally found a project for these adorable little nests.
It just never fitted before, and if felt strange on a card,
because I felt that is was a bit sideways, so I just had to put it on top. 




I made the hole with Spellbinders, and I also used those for framing
the stamp.
