I can't believe how fast the time is going. Already a week has gone by since my last post, and I dont know where the time has gone. I have been making lots of BIG x-mas cards, got my finger taped to a lollipop stick since wednesday (which is really uncomfy and annoying!!) and went to the fair with the kids last night. Don't think though that having 2 fingers stuck to some wood is keeping me from crafting, eventhough it's painfull hahaha!!
Anyways, here is the last one of the set of 3 I made:
The little flower at the bottom, I made myself. It's 2 sizes of lace and I just sew them together at the bottom. Pearl from an old necklace in the middle and voila!!

A little blog to post the cards I make. Maybe someone will be inspired by it! For me it will be fun to see the change in the cards I make, as I always seem to make different stuff at different times!

A set of 3
A few weeks ago, I got this amazing package in mail. It came from my aunt. She and my mum had been to a craftfair in Holland, and they came across all this amazing paper. She was so kind to by me a bloc of paper, and I have made 3 cards with it. This is the first of 3 same sort cards.
At my craftclub I was asked to do some demonstrations with versamark and embossingpowders. I also took my pearl-ex powders with me to show what else you can do. I stamped the christmas tree with versamark and went to town with my gold powder :):) Then I created a little embelishment with a spellbindersdie and shrink plastic. I so love how it turned out!!

As promised
I promised my mum a few days ago I would post the card I made for someones birthday. And ofc me beeing me, I forgot, and then got so busy preparing for the kids birthdayparty this afternoon. But I remembered, and so here it is:
The card took a good 5 hours to make, but I so so love it. The castle in the background is colored with prismacolors and sansodor. The fairies are colored with promarkers except the dresses, they are colored with Spectrum Noir, which in time will be added more to my collection cos they are amazing!! The fairies wings I used Angelina fibres and that flat stuff ( I forgot the name, sorry). I ironed it first so it was nice and flat and melted together, then used a stazon ink and stamped the wings. Cut it out and glued it on the fairies! It's so lovely and shiny!! Marianne Design dies were used, and one of the tag dies from spellbinders.

a tiny card
When we were at my mums over the summerholidays, we had a little "going to big school"-party for one of my sisters daughters. She loves going to the beach and get shells, so it was easy to choose what to make.
Used my new Adorables stamps, with the girl sitting at the beach picking shells.
I used the biggest size nestie to create the cardshape. Actually, I used the shape and made a faux nestie, by drawing around it and then cut it out. The lovely little girl is colored with promarkers.

Copycat
A little while ago I saw this amazing card on one of the blogs I follow. I think it was on Bev Rochesters blog, but I am not sure. She made a fabulous card using grand nesties. I don't have grand nesties, but I do have a pc, google, and a printer, so I found myself a nice scalloped circle, printed it out in 4 different sizes and made this lovely card:
As you can see, it has a hole in the middle, so you see through to the back/inside of the card!! I found this such a clever idea.
That's the card laying flat.
And that's just the inside.
Tilda is colored with Promarkers and Prismacolors.

Copics
Now, I have never colored with copic markers before. I don't even own one. But when we went on holiday this summer to my mums house, I took the opertunity to use hers. I must say, it's a different way of coloring, and my mum only owns a few so there weren't a lot of colors to choose from that were in the same line. But I did try and color it as nice as I could.
Only her top and skirt are colored with copics, the rest is done with Promarkers. I did enjoy coloring with them, so maybe one day I might buy them :)
