DT Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #9 "Something old,something new, something borrowed, something blue..

Her er mitt DT bidrag til utfordring #9 hos Stamptacular Sunday Challenge blog med bryllupstema. Har valgt å gjøre et lite forsøk på litt vintage stil denne gangen, vet ikke hvor mye jeg lyktes men... Var gøy å prøve i allefall! Jeg har fått mye inspirasjon fra Jannhild sine fantastiske konvoluttkort i det siste og måtte til slutt gi etter og prøve selv:) Gjør deg selv den tjenesten og besøk bloggen hennes, hun lager helt fantastiske kreasjoner!!
Noe så genialt og enkelt! Dette skal jeg virkelig gjøre igjen:)

Here is my DT submission for Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #9 with a weddingtheme this time. I decided to try out the vintage style this time, not sure I succeded though.. but it sure was fun! I've got so much inspiration from Jannhilds fabulous envelopecards lately so I just had to give in and give it a try myself:) Please visit her blog and take a look for yourself, you'll be blown away! It's just so genious and simple at the same time! I'm really gonna use this again!

The little sentiment on the front says "Faith, hope and love"



The precious image is designed by Gudrun Loennecken for Minnehjørnet A/S














The sentiment on the tag says "Best wishes for the this day and the future"

Let The Summer Begin.. Blog Hop!

Hi everyone!

I'm so glad you've been playing along with us for our first ever Blog Hop!
Before visiting me you should have already been to Paula
and Nikki and seen their fabulous creations, read all about what they do during the summer AND left them some love by posting a comment on one of their blog entries! If not...please go back! You won't want to miss out on your chance to win the Grand Prize once you've made it through our Hop!



During the summer my husband and I always seem to have a lot of projects that needs to be done, but of course we enjoy the time off from work too! We try to be with our families as much as we can and just relax, barbeque, take the boat out and just feel the breeze swipe our faces. Good times! I'm a wimp when it comes to bathing so it has to be really hot water for me to jump in it, but it happens! LOL! I'm also a fond gardener and spend much time in our garden taking care of my beloved plants and bushes:) Summer is my favourite time of year and it just makes me smile and feel happy:)

Please let me know what makes you smile when Summer comes!

Included with this post are some of my past summery creations! Enjoy!






Your next stop on your Hop will be
Priscillas blog! Have fun!

Her kommer mitt DT bidrag til den åttende utfordringen hos Stamptacular Sunday Challenge blog kalt "Oh, for the love of CHOCOLATE!". Jeg har tatt utgangspunkt i en eske med Toffifee og lagde et helt nytt omslag til den.

Here is my DT submission for the challenge number # 8 at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge blog called "Oh, for the love of CHOCOLATE!". I started out with a box of Toffifee and made a whole new wrap for it.
Et lite nærbilde. Vet ikke om dere kan se det, men jeg har brukt Diamond Glaze på rosene for å få de til å "poppe" litt ut.

Vi ønsker å se kort eller andre prosjekter laget med fargene rosa, grønn og brun. Kortet mitt ble veldig "clean & simple", har ikke helt mojo'en inne om dagen er jeg redd... Denne utfordringen er sponset av vårt eget DT medlem Donna (papirene jeg har brukt er fra henne), og premien er fra hennes egen shop Bearly Mine Designs! Ta turen over og sjekk ut de flotte bidragene til designteamet. Bli med da vel!

DT Stamptacular Sunday Challenge "Mums, the word!"

Beklager forsinkelsen (har vært på tur med jobb til Gøteborg fra torsdag-søndag) men her kommer endelig mitt DT bidrag til den femte utfordringen på Stamptacular Sunday Challenge kalt "Mums, the word!". Til denne utfordringen ønsker vi at dere lager noe som gir heder og takk til mødre og den fabelaktige jobben de gjør! Vi i teamet har fått leke med digitale stempler fra Sketching Stamper og dette var mitt aller første møte med digitale stempler! Jeg har malt motivet med distress ink, putta på diamond glaze, før alt ble sprayet med glimmermist old lace. ***
I'm so sorry for the delay (I've been on a trip to Gotenburg with work from thursday-sunday) but here's finally my DT card for the fith challenge at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge called "Mums, the word!". For this challenge we wish to see you make a project or card that shows gratitude and gives honour to mums and the fabulous work they do! The design team was able to play with some digital stamps from Sketching Stamper, and this was my very first meeting with this form of stamping! I've painted the image with distress ink, covered it with diamond glaze and then sprayed it all with glimmermist old lace.
