Tag book

This litle tag book thingy has taken me forever to finish. I started of really good, but got into a bumpy ride after a while. Finally it is finished.......at least at the outside - I am still missing some pictures to the inside. :-)
Well....this tag book is for my sisters youngest daughter and I am adding some pictures from our vacation to come. She will join us for our vacation this summe and I thought it was a good idea to make her a litle tagbook with some memories from the trip :-)
So after our vacation I will enjoy sitting down with pictures, scissors, glue and embellishment finishing this tag book.

Little Girls Birthday Card

This card was made for my brothers daughters birthday......all the way back in late June. She really loves pink, so a pink card it was.  I have used a stamp called Pyjama Emma which I won in a contest (I do not remember from where - and since one of my friends has borrowed this stamp I cannot find out right now) - she is so adorable :-) I have also used: pink bazzil, pink patterned paper, white paper, pink ribbon and pink rhinestones. I thought it would be too much pink, but it turned out ok I guess :-) The little girl who got it really loved it and that was the most important thing :-)

Surprise Gift Box

Oh my, such a long time since I last blogged.....I knew it was a long time, but I hadn`t realized it was that long.

I made this gift box to one of my hubby`s colleagues. She always ask us to buy her favourite perfume when we are going on vacation (if we can find it that is). We have not found it until this year - and then we just had to buy it for her.
We gave it to her as a surprise gift and I thought it should be given away in a cute box.

So this is the box I made for her.

I have used turqoise bazzil, patterned paper (some scraps I had laying around), stickles, flowers from Kort og Godt and light turqoise ribbon. The letters is cut out in turqoise bazzil with my quick cut.
