Christmas Card Galore!

Yepp, I know - I'm early with my Christmas cards this year :-)
But I was bored last weekend, and wanted to create, so I thought - why not?
I'm selling some of my cards at work, so I need to start early to have them ready in the middle of november.

When it comes to cards, my style is even more mixed then while scrapping. I enjoy both the hard thinking of getting CAS design to work, and to use layers and more embellies on vintage cards. And then there are those card who has no particular style - they are just ---- cards :-)


Today's cards are traditional card - traditional colors and themes.




Patterned papers: MME. Ribbon: unknown



Patterned papers: Harmonie. Wooden deer: unknown

Patterned papers: Little Yellow Bicycle. The rest: Unknown

Patterned papers: MME. Button, glitter trees and twine: unknown

Do you make your own Christmas cards?

Model plane freak

DS9 is an RC model plane freak. He spends a small fortune on buying them, and due to a high level of self confidence, he believe he can fly them all. But he can't - and he always blame the plane he crashes when his tours end up as disasters - they have either too little power, keeps flicking even after adjusting, they have aerodynamic probles etc etc. Not once have I ever heard him admit he don't have the skills to fly difficult planes...


Two weeks ago he bough a Vision. He had been warned, both by his dad and other great flyers, that this was a difficult plane to fly. But DS9 was sure he could fly it - but he couldn't. The plane hardly lifted from ground, before it ended in the ditch....

Patterned papers: Little Yellow Bicycle. Plane & cloud stamps: Imaginisce

3D foam dots give dimension to the details

I got the idea for this layout when I saw this sketch over at Pagemaps:

I flipped the sketch and replaced the butterflies with planes and clouds, but except for that I satyed pretty close to the original sketch?

Have you been out flying model planes lately?

I have scraplifted - and a Tuesday Giveaway winner!

Good morning, fellow scrappers!

On the first week of March, we started a new Lift the Person Above You Challenge at My ScrapbookNook. I got to lift the super talented Swedish scrapper Zarischa and here is the layout I picked to lift:

Layout by Zarischa

Zarisckha is a master of misting and pretty flower details, and I officially suck at both. I loved the design on the layout so here is by take on it:

Look, I even managed to use flowers! While Zarischa used mist, I chose to use rubons instead (I'm a rubon junkie!).

The photo is of DS9 as a first grader. I was browsing through some envelopes with older photos, when I came across his 1th grader photos and realized I never had scrapped them. What a shame! And I have no idea why have haven't done it earlier.

All the materials in this layout are from the Little Yellow Bicycle Saturdays Collection, exept rubons, alpha and twine. When this layout was done, I posted it on the LYB FB wall, and I was happy, surprised and proud to find it featured on the LYB blog this week. Woot, woot for me :-)

Not The Bath Tub! (+Tuesday giveaway winner)

I had loves today - plenty:

1. I just love the new Little Yellow Bicycle collection Saturdays: the colors, the patterns and the fun embellishments.
2. I love my dog, too
3. I have been looking for a shop where I could by some Epiphany Craft tools and epoxy buttons, but have found none - well there are some out there in the world, but shipping would ruin me. But sweet Pysselpetra visited me this weekend and brought me a gift - a button tool and epoxy buttons. I think I love her, also...

Guess who has been playing with new papers and tools today?
