Last challenge at My Besties Norway.

Hi everyone!

We have reached a crosspath over at My Besties Norway. Our DT leader has decided step down and close the blog so this will be our last challenge for now. I`ve also decided to step down so i won`t be back if or when the team is gathering in the future. So i want to thank you all for beeing such wonderful supporters for our team and challenge. It has been a blast visiting you.

Well...let`s get down to buisness. This last challenge is a nice and easy one.

For this one i`ve used IMG102. Isn`t she a total cutie. I just adore her.

The colours used are:

Skin: Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Tan, Sunkissed pink for cheeks and Coral for lips.

Eyes: Umber, Rose wood (FM), Chestnut, Terracotta

I find these big beads so beautiful and just had to incorporate them somehow. Just love the colour. 

This gorgeous sentiment is from a digi element pack designed by Michelle Roos available here.

La deg inspirere #1 fra ProMarker Norge

Heisann venner!

Hos ProMarker Norge har vi igang en ny utfordring. Det er fortsatt god tid til å være med men bare stress så mye du orker. Alle bidrag mottas med takk, hehe. I dag er det min tur å være til inspirasjon for dere...ok da....prøve i allefall :-D Jeg har lyst til å vise dere et bryllupskort hvor jeg har brukt motiv fra Tiddly Inks. Utrolig søtt motiv synes jeg.

Jeg synes det er utrolig vanskelig å fargelegge kjoler som skal se hvite ut, men denne farge kombinasjonen synes jeg fungerte veldig bra. I allefall ble jeg veldig fornøyd med resultatet selv.

Fargene jeg har brukt her er: 

Hud: Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Tan, (Babypink til kinnene)

Hår ham: Black, Cool grey #3 & 5

Dress: Black, Cool grey #3,4 & 5

Hår henne: Cocoa, Mustard, Buttercup

Kjole: Icicle, April shower, Blender

Mark: Umber og Cocoa

Dette resin elementet fra Prima synes jeg var midt i blinken så det MÅTTE bare være med.

Her har jeg en selvlaget glassperle. Jeg har bare plukket ut et motiv jeg likte, deretter brukt lim som tørker blankt og limt det fast til baksiden av glassperlen.

Stempel fra Teresa Collins` Mr & Mrs. clearstamp kolleksjon

Her ser dere også bruk av Frantàge Shabby Blue Embossing Enamel samt dies fra Marianne design. Som finish på kantene har jeg brukt hvit akryl maling iblandet litt fin sand.

Da håper jeg å se mange flere bidrag til utfordringen vår hos ProMarker Norge. For å se hva utfordringen består i må du nesten bare besøke bloggen vår, hehe....hemmelighetsfull....neeeeeida aldri. Lykke til!

Hi everyone!

It`s been a while since i last posted anything in my blog. I`ve had a good long holiday from crafting and i`m starting the new year with newfound inspiration. The main issue is the time aspect. With my job and silly workhours it`s not so much time left to get crafty. But i love crafting and try as best as i can to make time. 

This year i start with the new challenge over at WhoopsiDaisy. The theme set for the challenge is

Favourite colour combo

The image i have used is available on sheet #506 which is one of the newest sheets in the WhoopsiDaisy Shop

Hair: Umber, Roewood (FM), Burnt orange

ProMarker Norge fyller 2 år!

Heisann!

Beklager så mye at denne posten kom i bakleksa. Har hatt hodet fullt av andre ting i det siste og dette gikk rett og slett i glemmeboka. Uansett, det er kommet en ny utfording ut hos ProMarker Norge og dere må gjerne hoppe over dit for å finne ut hva det kan være.

Samtidig feirer vi 2års dagen vår!!!! Yeeeay!!!! Hipp Hurra for ProMarker Norge! Jeghar ikke vært med på teamet like lenge men det har vært en fabelaktig reise så langt. Et flott team med utrolig talentfulle damer og jeg er så stolt over å få lov til å være med på moroa.

Til denne utfordringen har jeg laget et sett med gavepose og en tag. Begge har jeg brukt motiv fra Mo Manning på. Motivet heter Winter Fairy Halla og det er mulig å få kjøpt her.

Hehe, jeg ble litt overivrig med bildetakingen men det får bare være.

Farger som er brukt:

Hud: Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Sunkissed pink, Tan

Hår: Ice grey #2 og 4, Icicle, Hvit Sakura gelly roll pen

Klær: Slate, Winterberry, Iced pearl, Ice grey #2 og 4, Icicle

Vinger: Iced pearl, Pink mittens, Icicle, diamond stickles

Posen er ikke så veldig stor men kan fylles med hva enn man måtte ønske. Ser for meg litt twist eller litt annet småsnop.

Her er den medfølgende tag`en hvor man kan skrive en liten hilsen på baksiden. I min iver glemte jeg selvfølgelig å ta bilde av baksiden, hehe.

Jeg hadde ingen hvite stjerner tilgjengelig så jeg tok noen sølvstjerner og malte dem med hvit gesso og så hadde jeg på diamond dust og diamond stickles. Ble litt vanskelig å få et ordentlig bilde av det. Det ble for mye refleksjon fra blitzen.

Dies er fra Marianne Design og Memory Box. Post card stemplet er fra Marianne Design`s Vintage collection.

Håper dere har funnet litt inspirasjon her hos meg. Takk for besøket. Hopp over til ProMarker Norge å finn ut hva utfordringen er og gjerne bli med på moroa.

Vintage/Shabby chic over at WhoopsiDaisy

Hey peeps!

Today the new challenge has gone live over at WhoopsiDaisy  . The theme for this time is 

Vintage / Shabby chic

I went for shabby chic for my creation this time. The image is from Sheet #451.

This theme is one of my favs. I just love anything vintage and shabby looking stuff.

Papers i have used are from Maja Design, (Vintage spring basics). Dies are from Spellbinders, Magnolia and Marianne Design. I have painted the edges with white gesso blended with a little sand to get some extra texture. I have also used Frantage Embossing enamel (Shabby pink) on the edges of the image.

Colours i have used:

Skin: Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Sunkissed pink, Tan

Hair: Cocoa, Mustard, Buttercup, Saffron

Dress: Trick or Treat, Dusky rose, Pink mittens

This cluster of flowers are from several companies. Mulberry Crafts, Wild Orchid Crafts and Bi-kuben. The lace is also from WOC.

I also made a mini pebble. Ok i didn`t actually make the glass pebble, lol. But i cut out a little rose and glued it on to the back of the glass pebble to make my own finished one. I think it came out quite nice and perfect for this card.

Ok...that`s it from me today. We would very much like you to come over to WhoopsiDaisy and join in our new challenge. Hope to see you there! 

Happy Crafting everyone!

Use some kind of dies

The image i have used for today`s challenge you can find here.

I have kept the colours in a fall theme as i am in that kind of mood at the time. I just love the fall. Such beautiful colours all around us, don`t you think?

The dies i have used are Fleur de Lis squares by Spellbinders and Border Craftable CR1250 by Marianne Design. I`m sorry but i couldn`t find any link to where it`s available. I got it in a DT pack a little while ago.

I have tried blending some new colours and the result you can see on her clothes and bow. Colours i normally wouldn`t think could go well together but i`m really surprised and happy they did.

Colours used are:

Skin: Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Tan, Sunkissed pink

Hair: Rosewood (FM), Terracotta, Spice, Honeycomb

Eyes: Emerald, Green, Mint green

Lips: Budding rose, Pink mittens

Top/Tights/Bow: Rosewood (FM), Burnt orange, Peach

Shorts: Firewood, Grey squirrel, Pastel beige

Cat: Ice grey #1,2 and 5, Budding rose, Pink mittens

For white highlights i used Sakura gelly roll pen

Here i just rolled up some string, made a bow and put on a brown rose. Just real simple.

I used some different kind of papers for this one. They are from Websters Pages, Marianne Design and G45.
