AND some days ago, I was suppriced by reciving this amazingly georgeous KAOS-award from my best friend, and the truly magnificent paperartist; Maya!! She really brought a tear to my eye with this award - because of three reasons:

First - I was really suppriced by getting an award like this, that is so personal and meaningful!

Second - The award is simply creatively beautiful, in design, colours, image and embellies!

Third - The personal words on the back, hit my heart so deep, that I will keep it as a treasure always!

Thank you so much, my dear friend!

Is'nt this just adorably beautiful??

I'll be back later, with my KAOS-awards, and who's gonna get them ;)

DT Sukkersött Challenge #59

Another friday is finally here - and I'm off work, for the whole weekend! Yey!!!
Today is dedicated to housework, but the rest of the weekend, I'm gonna enjoy myself with crafting ;)

Well, friday means Sukkersõtt time, and we have a new challenge ready for you in the Sukkersott blog! For this Challenge #59, we want you to make/use an image split in 4-9 "inches", on your project. One "inch" is about 2,5 x 2,5 cm, in norwegian measures. You may solve the assigment in any way you want, just as long as you stay in between 4-9 pieces of "inches", and the "puzzle" turns into a "whole" image/picture.
If you need som ideas how to begin - just take a look at the DT's great work this week ;)

This time I made a "spinning-card" (my first ;). I chose to colour and decorate one image, and then split it into 9 "inches":

Card recipe:

Size: 13 x 20 cm

Ink: Archival Ink - Coffee and Cobalt for stamping, Distress Ink - Weathered Wood for shading, Distress Ink - Refills for colouring.

Stamps: Serendipety - Snowman in front of a fence, Papirloftet - Sentimentcircle on the spinning circle and every side, Inkido - Sentimentcircle inside, Autumn Leaves - Stampology "On the edge".
Papers: Inkido - Flinga blå, Bazzill - Shimmer dark blue and Canvas light blue, Aquarellpaper 200 g.

Embellies: Poinsettas, Wild Orchid Crafts - Roses and Rosebuds, Unik Hobby - Charm, Nille - Ribbon, Decoart - Snow Wruter, Ranger - Stickles "Frosted Lace", Bling and Silver tread.

Tools: Spellbinders - Nestabilities Squares and Scalloped Squares, QK - CC Stars, EK Suksess - Fern Leaf Punch and Circle Punch, Stampin'Up - Word Window Punch.

Other things: The star with the sentiment circle on the front, is spinning. The snow on the image, is decorated with Snow Writer and Stickles.
