Here is my card ;o)






I made the front of this card, at the Ski-gathering a couple a weeks ago, and where challenged to use some corrugated paper, by the great scrapper Trine. I painted the corrugated paper with white Distress Crackle Paint, and went over it again with a touch of Distress Crackle Paint - Broken China. I used the painted result as a background for my image on the card, and it looks pretty cool, I think! My friend Maya challenged me to use the colour yellow - thank you so much, both of you! The image is coloured with Distress Ink, on aquarelle-paper

Wrapped Chocolate-bars

When I was going to the Ski-gathering a couple a weeks ago, I wanted to make something for a few of my stamp/scrap-friends - just a little something to show that I appreciate them :o) I don't think I know a woman, who don't like chocolate *ü*, and I did'nt have much time to make presents, so I ended up wrapping and embellish 8 chocolate-bars for my friends!

Cupcake Craft Challenge

This week at the Cupcake Craft Challenge Blog, their Challenge #30 has a spring theme. I made the front and the back of this card at the Ski-gathering last weekend, but embellished the insides this week at home. I found out that it suits the spring-challenge at the CCC-blog this week, so I'll give it a shot!




The patterened paper is from Graphic 45 - Baby to Bride Collection "Endless Love", bought at Minnehjørnet. I also used a little bit of an old note-paper, and ofcourse some Bazzill Cardstock.
The image is from Susana's Costum Art, and is coloured with Distress Ink. The text on the bottom-front is from Norsk Stempelblad AS, and says something like "Greatings from the heart". The text inside the card is from Stempelglede. The velvet ribbon was given to me by my sweet DT-friend Elsi, and I borrowed a Fiscars Punch from Nina to make the ribbon-holes - Thank you sweeties! I also embellished my card by using some organza-ribbon, Spellbinder dies, Martha Stewart Scalloped Mini Heart Punch, Prima flowers (used as leaf under the roses) and bling, roses from Wild Orchid Crafts, Scrappers Floss, Headpins from Panduro, and a charm from Unik Hobby.

Two more cards made with Norsk Stempelblad AS' new stamp-collections.
On the first one, I've used an older image, but one of the new text-stamps. On the inside, I've used a text-stamp from Stempelglede.





On the other one, I've used a lady-image, and coloured it with Distress ink. That card was made for my special crafting-friend Kim ;o)
