*God Jul*/*Merry Christmas*

Ok, så jeg jukser litt igjen..hehe, klarer ikke la hobbyrommet stå i fred lenger;) Har noen julekort som må lages og det er jo et poeng å smi mens jernet er varmt, er det ikke?? :) Jeg simpelthen elsker disse fargene og Magnolia gjør det til en fryd å lage kort! Elsker den nye Word Window punchen min, tusen takk Lim!!!
******
Ok, so I keep on cheating..lol, but I just can't keep out of my craftroom any longer;) I do have some Christmas cards to make, so why not take advantage of making them when I have this urge to scrap?? :) I just love these colours and Magnolia makes it such a pleasure to make cards! I simply love my ny Word Window punch, thank you so much Lim!!!
I've put a tag behind the notes which says "A warm Christmas hug to you from me"
Festa på en liten charm på lappen, syns det ble riktig så søtt :)
Added a little charm to the label, think it looks cute :)


The inside:


Måtte lage et lite skilt med de nye nestabilitiesene mine:)
I've made a little sign which says " Christmas Joy", love the new nestabilities;)




The back:


I only have time for a quick post, since I'm not suppose to do this at the moment..lol, but if there's any questions feel free to ask!
I wish you all a wonderful weekend!!
Big hug, Line

*A new card!*

Ok, so I cheated..but I had to! *lol*
I've been working so hard to finish my weddinginvitations and now I have to wait for something to arrive in my mailbox before I can do the finishing touches. I'm beginning to get really excited about a wintery wedding, and things have fallen into place so it looks like we'll get ready in time too :). I've had this itch to make something else so yesterday I painted some of my new Magnolias and here is the first card I've finished. I'm almost out of practise so I struggled to get into the groove again. It turned out real plain and simple but I just love the pearls that sweet, sweet Lim sent me:)

"God Jul" means Merry Christmas





"A warm Christmas hug from me to you"
CS: Bazzill
DP: Papirdesign
Stamps: Magnolia, swirl from Ladybugsandfriends
Accessories: Pearls from Lim, scrappers floss, ribbon unknown, buttons from Kort og Godt, spellbinders nestabilities
Thank you so much to all of you who has visited my blog, even when there's been no new posts:) I really appreciate all of your wonderful comments about my Christmas mailbox. Some of you have asked me about a tutorial for this and I'm sorry to say there is none. I didn't think of taking pictures of the process because I was trying not to light my red hair on fire *lol* It is just a matter of finding the right kind of box and cut a lid in the size you want. Then I opened it up and covered the inside with DP before I put i together again and decorated the outside. I'm sure many of you will be able to make this without all of the not so nice language that I used ;)
And a big thank you to all of you who has been so generous and kind to give an award, I am deeply hounourd and touched that you thought of me. I promise to come back and give them to other deserving crafters:)
I wish you all a wonderful week!
Hugs, Line

*En liten oppdatering*/*Just a little update..

Hei alle sammen!

Først må jeg bare si tusen takk til Åshild for at hun plukket ut julepostboksen min blant ukens søtesteSukkersøtt! Snakk om opptur da! :D

For det andre så må jeg bare beklage at det ikke har kommet noe nytt i bloggen her på en stundt, og det vil nok dessverre ikke komme noe her på en stund heller.. Min kjære og jeg har nå måttet framskynde bryllupet vårt pga en del ting som har skjedd i og rundt famillien i det siste, både gode og dårlige nyheter. Den nye datoen vår er nå satt til 17. januar så nå har jeg mer enn nok å henge fingrene i. Holder på med invitasjonene nå og skal produsere det jeg kan til jeg er i mål med alt som skal lages. Skulle så ønske jeg hadde tid - og energi til å scrappe noe annet, men det ser dårlig ut foreløpig.. Jeg prøver å snike meg til noen bloggrunder innimellom for å følge litt med, men er redd jeg ikke får kommentert så mye som jeg ønsker. Skal poste nytt innlegg så fort jeg har noe å poste;) Savner dere alle sammen masse!!

Hi everyone!
First of all I just have to say a big thank you to Åshild who picked out my Christmas mailbox as one of this weeks sweetest at Sukkersøtt! Talk about getting high! :D

Second of all I have to say I'm sorry for the lack of new postings in my blog lately, and it probably will be some time before anything new appears too.. My fiancè and I decided last weekend to move our wedding to January 17th instead of in May. There's been a lot of stuff happening in and around our family lately, both good and bad, so we decided it was best to move it. With that said my list over things to do in very short time grew fast, and my hands are fully occupied with the wedding. I have to make the invitations now and when that is done I have the seatingcards etc. etc... I really wish I had the time - and energy to make anything else but I'm afraid it just have to wait. I try to sneak in some bloghopping now and then,but I'm not able to comment as much as I'd like. I promise I'll make a new posting as soon as there's something to post;) I miss you guys so much!!


One last thing, I've been tagged by Gry-Heidi and I'm sorry that I haven't done it yet. I also have received two awards from Malin, thank you so much! I'll try to pass them on as soon as I can;)


Take care!
BIG hug,
Line

*Julepost*

Da har jeg endelig funnet tid til å være med i en ny utfordring på Sukkersøtt, og i denne som er nr 14 i rekken skulle man ha med tekstil i arbeidet sitt. Jeg valgte å lage noe annet enn et kort denne gangen, nemlig en boks til å oppbevare julekort i. Har igrunn hatt bruk for det i noen år så var igrunn greit å få den på plass nå...hehe. Det synes ikke på bildet, men jeg har limt på mønsterpapir på hele innsiden av boksen og. I tilfelle det er tvil om bruk av tekstil her, så har jeg altså kledd kanten i åpningen og på lokket med blonde. Det var mye mer vrient enn jeg trodde det skulle være å lage denne, så det har nok knitra litt ekstra i det røde håret mitt idag!! ;)

I've finally found the time to enter a new challenge at Sukkersøtt, and this time you were suppose to use fabrics on your work. I decided to make a box for my Christmas cards and the fabrics used are the lace around the opening of the box. I have also put DP on the whole inside of the box as well, it just doesen't show on the pictures. It was a bit more difficult to make this than I had anticipated, so it kind of got a little hot on top of my redhaired head while I struggled...lol.





















The word "Julepost" means "Christmaspost"


I've used a box that used to contain a kitchentool..
DP: Paperstack from Panduro, the label is from Minner(Memories) by Vibeke Spigseth
Accessories: letters from MM, flower from Prima, leatherbutton, string and straw from Panduro, stickles from Ranger, snowflakes and keys from Unik Hobby, keyhole from Maya Road and lace from Kort og Godt.
Takk for at du besøker bloggen min, og tusen takk til dere som legger igjen så hyggelige kommentarer. Det varmer virkelig!!
Ønsker dere en flott uke!
Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for leaving me those wonderful comments!
Have a wonderful week!

*Vennskap er en gave*/*Frienship is a gift*

Her er mitt "i siste lita" bidrag til Friday Sketchers Sketch # 25 av Claudia Rosa. Jeg har vært veldig opptatt i det siste og har rett og slett ikke hatt mulighet før nå. Dette er et skikkelig høstkort, og du kan gjerne kalle det en stille protest mot snøen som kom ned i går! ;)
Jeg simpelthen digger disse dramatiske og fargerike papirene og jeg er totalt forelska i dette stempelet fra Magnolia! Hun er bare SÅ søt!

Here is my last minute entry to Friday Sketchers Sketch # 25 by Claudia Rosa. I've been really busy lately so I didn't have time to make it sooner. It is an autumn card, and I made it as a silent protest against the snow that came down yesterday! ;)
I just love these dramatic and colourful papers and I just love this Tilda. She is just the cutest!

The sentiment on the front means; Friendship is a gift (you can see it much better in real life..)




The sentiment means; Warm hugs










CS: Bazzill
DP: Basic Grey Ambrosia collection
Stamp: Magnolia, Norsk Stempelblad
Accessories: Pearls from Kort og Godt, Brads, charms and rondells from Unik Hobby, Flowers from Prima, String from Panduro, Ribbons unknown, Rubon from Melissa Frances, Stickles from Ranger.

*Cold snowflakes are gently falling*

This is my entry to this weeks Friday Sketchers Sketch # 24. I'm sorry it's such a quick post, but I hardly had time to make this card, and I'm sad to say that I have to catch up on my blog rounds next week.. I loved this weeks sketch and I went for a clean and simpel card because I think the papers are so gorgeous. These ones are also from Scrappers Choice designed by Vibeke Spigseth. Just beautiful papers to work with!







Thanks for watching and have a wonderful weekend!

*Thinking of you*

This weeks challenge at Cute Card Thursday (#32) is Autumn, and at Whiff Of Joy (#4) the challenge is Autumn colours, so I decided to combine the two in one card. I have just received my first WOJ stamps so this is my first try at them (and the challenge) ever. I just LOVE them! I went for a clean and simple look, thought the image is so beautiful that it doesn't need much stash. I'm also totally in love with my new Martha Stewart Doily Lace Punch!!!

The front:
A little closeup on the BIG flower;)

The inside:


The tag:

Painted with my distress reinkers. All edges distressed with Brushed curdroy.

*En varm juleklem*

Her er mitt bidrag til A Spoon Full Of Sugar Lim's Sketch. Den utrolig skjønne Lim har laget en flott skisse til denne ukes utfordring som jeg har kost meg masse med. Ble et veldig rødt og "julete" kort, men dette måtte bare bli det til disse flotte julepapirene designet av Vibeke Spigseth! (Har faktisk stått og skrytt av papirene hennes til ei venninne rett foran henne uten å vite hvem hun var! hehe)

Here is my entry to A Spoon Full Of Sugar Lim's Sketch. The sweet and gorgeous Lim has provided this fabulous sketch for this weeks challenge, and I have really enjoyed working on it. It turned out to be a really red and "Christmasy" card, but it just had to with these amazing papers designed by Vibeke Spigseth! (I've actually told my friend how amazing these papers are without knowing the designer stood right in front of me listening! lol)

The front:
I just love my little bells!

The sentiment means; A warm Christmas hug from me to you


The inside:
I've used a piece of the DP on the inside as well, really love those swirls and little hearts!



The sentiment says; A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year




The back:



CS:Bazzill
DP: Scrappers Choice; Julefryd designed by Vibeke Spigseth
Stamp: Hänglar & Stänglar
Accessories: Brads and string from Panduro, Rubons from Melissa Frances, Stickles from Ranger, bells from a local store, nestabilities from Spellbinders. All edges are distressed with Aged Mahogny.


Thank you so much for visiting my blog!
All your sweet comments really make my day!
