Kind of Vintage

I have made yet another vintage card (......kind of vintage anyway) and I think it turned out quite good.
I love making cards in different tone of blue, it always turns out good :-)

This is how my card turned out this time.



I have used light blue patterned paper which I have made to look like tiles, flowers from Kort og Godt and some of them is from a uk website (which I of course cannot remember at this time). I have also used some bling, stickers, metal embellishment and stickles. The text stamp I have used is from Kreativ Hobby and the image stamp is from Unity Stamp.

Thanks for visiting!

Vintage Card

I tried making another vintage card using the same teqhniques as the first one. I think I did better on the Vintage Tag Card, but I guess I will do better with a little more practice :-)

Anyway, this is how this card turned out :-)

GRMPFH!!! Need help!!!

Is there anybody out there who can help me with the Follower function.
When I choose preview it looks great, but when I save and click show blog it disappears. I get a message saying it is something wrong with the configuration of this gadget.

It is driving me crazy not to be able to solve the problem so I would be really happy for all the help I  can get.

Thank you!

Vintage Tag Card

I have tried making a Vintage card for the first time. I think it turned out quite good, considering I have  never done this before :-)
I guess you with experience making these kind of cards will not agree with me, but.......I am still happy with the outcome :-)


Clean and simple inside

Wedding Card

This time I have made a quite clean and simple wedding card. I was going to enter the challenge at North Star Stamps this month, but I just realised I have not used North Star`s stamps.
Since I have already made this card I might I well just make a post here in my blog :-)

This is how my card turned out this time:

Boys or Girls Birthday card






Me and one of my nieses had a lot of fun making our own patterned paper.
We made it with shaving foam and ink - it looks really good, don`t you think? :-)

It is kind of messy making these kind of patterned paper, but it is really a lot of fun and you can make them just as you like :-)

Christmas card in July

I try to make up some Christmas cards as well, but I must admit that it`s going kind of slow :-)
It`s hard making Christmas cards during summer and I struggle for many days with every card I make....hopefully it will be better when I have had my summer vacation (which is still far away :-)

This is the Christmas card I made this time:-)

Birthdaycard for my dad!!

We celebrated my dad`s birthday this Saturday with a typical norwegian dinner named "fårikål" (this is meat from lamb and cabbage boiled in water with salt and whole black pepper), this is really good :-)
And since the weather here in Norway is quite bad these days my mom spent the whole last week making a lot of different cakes :-) So we had a good time with a lot of good things to eat :-)

Anyway.......since it was my dad`s birthday, I had to make him a card. He has a greenhouse which we got him for his 60th birthday and he really enjoy fooling around trying new things to grow in there. My inspiration for his card came from that :-)

So here is what I came up with (I had to make it simple due to not much time to make the card.......not as much time as I would`ve wanted anyway :-)
