Kortskissen Sketch #53

I've made a small paperbag for this week's sketch #53 at Kortskissen! I just turned the rectangel the other way ;)
The inspiration for the paperbag and the colours I've used, I got from my friend Maya ;o) She has a easy-make-tutorial of paperbags over at the Inkywings blog! I think I've never used the colours purple, violet and lilac for my crafts, but this is definetly lilac!!


The stamped text says: "Good friends are lifes real treasures". The rubons on the tags says: "To You" and "From Me". I'll put a little something in the bag, and send it to a dear friend :o)

Size: 10 x 16 cm
Ink: Archival Ink - Coffee (for stamping the image), ColorBox Fluid Chalk - Charcoal (for edging the lilac cardstock), and Distress Ink - mostly Dusty Concord and Milled Lavender (for colouring and edging the light cardstock and the patterened paper).
Stamps: Sugar Nellie - Gorjuss Girl, Stempelglede - Text.
Paper: Paper Pizzazz - Patterened paper, Bazzill - Lilac and Creme cardstock.
Embellishments: Purple organza ribbon, Prima - flowers, Punch Bunch - Fern, Norsk Stempelblad - Rubons, Unik Hobby - Charms, eyelets and brads.
Tools: Unik Hobby - Small white Paperbag, Spellbinder - Nestabillities Labels, Martha Stewart - Doily Lace Punch, StampinUp - Word Window Punch.

Guuult er kuuult!

I just had to have this title in norwegian :o) In english it means something like "Yellow is so cool"!
I was suppose to finish and post this card yeasterday evening, as I promised a good friend of mine... I'm really sorry Maya (she's probably been checking my blog ten times last night ;), but here's the story:
Hard day at work yeasterday - when I came home from work, and had made dinner and eat it, I was so tired, that I decided to rest for an hour...
Well, I fell a sleep about 7 pm last night, and woke up at 6 am this morning!!! *tji-hi* So I finished my card this morning, and here's my first yellow card ever (and probably not the last ;):






Some weeks ago, Maya challenged me to make a yellow card. I'm a bit slow, so when we where at the Scraporama Fair, Maya had bought me some yellow patterened paper, and yellow and orange ribbons, just to get me started ;) Thank you so much, sweetie - I've used the patterened paper and the orange ribbon on this card - honouring you Maya! I even got the cute stamped image from her!
The card is also made for this week's Sugar Bowl Challenge #7, where the theme is spring or easter - and I feel this card is a little bit of both (and probably the closest to an eastercard I'll ever gonna make:)! And I made the card after the Sketch #52 at "Kortskissen" Card Challengeblog.
