StampARTic "Card of the Year"

StampARTic has a challenge going on, where we're supposed to pick the card we made this year, that we're most satisfied with....
Not easy, but I ended up with this card:




This is the first card I made for the Papirgleder's KortCup, and that sent me to the finale
(that I by the way, ended as no.2 :),
but that's not actually why I'm most pleased with this card...
First of all, I love the image, and I think the coloration of it, is quite good too :)
Second of all, I love Maja Papers, and these blue ones, makes the card have the winter-feeling that I wanted to create.
The third reason, is that I like that the card 'feels' warm, even though the colors are 'cold', and I think the sparkling in it makes it a bit magical :)
You can see more pictures of the card here :)

Thanks for looking!
Hugs, Lena Katrine

PS! Remember to join in my birthday giveaway - the candypost is pinned on top of my blog:)

Stempelglede's Handmade Card Contest


Stempelglede is having a huge Handmade Card Contest, and when I saw the great colours we're suppose to use, I new I had to give it a shot :)
And the prices to win are amazing - who does'nt want to win some amazing Stempelglede stamps?



So this is what I came up with, using the great colors in the picture above.
I've used stamps from Stempelglede's georgeous collections "Gledelig Jul" and "Grunge Hearts".


I've used Melissa Frances' georgeous patterned paper "Winter Freeze", and white, blue and craft cardstock from Bazzill to make the card.
I've stamped swirls from Stempelglede's "Grunge Hearts" Collection on the patterned paper with embossing ink, and embossed it with Ranger "Sea Foam" embossingpowder.
My sewing machine does'nt work on paper, so I just made the holes in the papers with it, and then sewed by hand around the patterned papers.


The rest of the stamping is made with Archival Ink - Sepia, on Aquarellpaper 200 g.
I've painted the beautiful angel's wings with Glimmermist - Silver, to make it shimmer a bit :)
All the edges on the panels and papers are inked with Distress Ink - Antique Linen and Weathered Wood. The craft cardstock are inked with some Vintage Photo as well.
For the embellishments I've used several different flowers, roses and rosebuds from Unik Hobby, Prima and Papirloftet, a cinnamon stick with some tulle around, charms and ribbon from Unik Hobby, Pearlswirls from Prima, and other pearls from Kort & Godt.

I've used the same layout on every side of the card, just flipped it a bit, to make a littele twist.


The "frames" on the white squares are made with a EKSuksess borderpunch, and for the circles I've used Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic and Scalloped Circles.



Thank you for visiting - hope you've enjoyed my card!
Have a great weekend!

Hugs, Lena Katrine

STM's Christmas Workshop

You can make anything you want, just as long as it's something related to Christmas.

I've made an Advent Calendar for my mum and dad, using the very talented Åshilds's calendar-idea, and some of 3ndy's georgeous Christmas-papers :)


The beautiful papers from 3ndy are called "Pepperkakefest" (Gingerbread-party), and I've used both sides on it.
I've also used some left-over papers with the saying "Merry Christmas" on it, and some Bazzill Craft Cardstock - punched with a Fiskars border punch.
The bottom are made of coasters, punched out with a spellbinders nestie, and dressed with 3ndy-paper.


The "hatches" are made of stars and the gingerbreads, punched out with QK CC's. I've embellished them - along with the borders, with pearls from Kort & Godt, and faux stitching made with a white pen.
On the back of each "hatch", there's fatened a roll of stripped paper, with a quotation on it.
The "hatches are fatened on the candles with handmade headpins.
The ribbon can be bought, along with most of the other supplies I've used, at Unik Hobby.



Thank you for visiting and leaving me sweet comments :)
