Hello!

Here we have a wonderful winter weather today, and I'll go skiing later today.

I hope the sun shines on you too.

My card today is for Valentines.

Many photos, but I hope you want  to see them all.

And I've tried on a new tutorial (for me), which looks like this ....

I've used a paper from Pysselgumman - Från Mitt Hjärta,

and stamped the tree branch with a stamp from Bildmålarna.

I just love those wonderful pigeons that comes with love letters

to their friends up in the tree.

And the Tag....

I have used Copics and Distress Inks.

The heart has been given a treatment with Crackle accents.

Lovely flowers from different places,

but has ended up in my stash:)

There are several challenges now on the theme Valentine's/Love.

For example at Delightful Challenges - Have A Heart

Charisma Cardz - Valentines/Love

 A Spoon full of sugar - Valentine

Craft Your Days Away - Love

and last but not least Totally Gorjuss - As YOU Like It,

because i Love this birds, and the houses in the tree, and it´s vintage too.

Crazy 4 Challenges wants to see cards about the theme "Vintage or Shabby Chic". Perfect for me, and my card.

Hugs, Birgit

Handmade flower - Gift box

Hello everybody! How are you? Just good, I hope.

They have a great theme this week on Top Tip Thuesday - Fabulous Flowers.

And I knew that I wanted to do my own flower this time, so I did.

I made my flower with lace and silk paper,

which I have stamped on with a text stamp.

Then I've put together the flower and added a little Stickles.

And over at Cupcake Craft Challenge this weeks Challenge is "Food for Thougts".

I have placed my flower on a box that I've done,

and I shall I fill it with something good. Yummy....
They may lose weight at any other time.

The stamp is from Bildmålarna.

The papers are from Prima Marketing - "Pastiche Collection, Love letter"

I've also thought to participate in the Challenge over at Kreative Stempelfreunde,
their theme this week is "Shapes", (and i have used my spellbinder.)
And to Everybody Art Challenge - "My favourite thing",
because I love to do anything but just cards, (although it is fun too)
Oh, I just found this Challenge, and it is purfect

Winter Wonderland

Hello, my dear blog readers!

First, I must tell you, that to my great joy I have been choosen to No.1 at Kreative Stempelfreunde, in last week's challenge, "Winter". Tjohooo.....

It's so great to know that there are a few more out there who likes what I create.

And it fits just so good now that the snow lies deep and white, so here is a new card on the theme of "Winter Wonderland" that they want to see at The Shabby Tea Room this week.
 And to the Challenge at Fluorishes Timeless Tuesday they want you to ad some kind of hardware to your card/project.
I used a silver heart on my card.
I used the sketch at Card Patterns, but I turned it upside down. I hope thats OK.

a close-up....

It almost looks like a scarf, right?

And the inside, of course.

I used the following materials:

Spellbinders Impressabilities: "Diamonds and Stars"

Fairy Tales

Hello, and welcome back. I think it's time to show you a new creation of me.

Once again, I´ve used the nice papers from Maja Design "Ska vi ta en fika".

I found the great sketch over at the Challenge of The Sweet Stop Sketches, and at the Challenge of  the Wags´n Whiskers Stamps the theme is called "A Fairy Special Challenge".

The team of the Challenge from the Phindy´s Place would like to see creations with "Lace and Pearls".

And at Papertake Weekly they have a nice theme which is "Ribbons & Pearls".

So I chose the stamp with the fairy from The Greeting Farm, and colored her.

All the embellishments are from my stash.

Have a wonderful week and thanks for swinging by today.

Hugs, Birgit.

Hi dear friends! It's Saturday again and the week has gone too fast.

But here where I live, the days getting longer and brighter now, and that is nice.

This card with Tilda I made for Friday Sketchers challenge this week.

I have painted her with my Distress Inks.

And the papers is very old but purchased from Panduro.

Centiment from Create With TLC.

White and Bright

Hello, dear friends.

I had to use my new Spellbinders Impressabilities....Diamond & Stars.

And it was so fun to see the results, and it became this card in white.

I used the sketch at The Sweet Stop Sketchers:

...and more inspiration at The Shabby Tea Room - White and Bright

Their designers are amazing.

 But i think they are equally well at Sketchy Colors 

 and their challenge this week is - White.

And my super cute cuddly bears, I must send to Totally Gorjuss.

Cute Card Thursday - Monochrome

The bear stamp is from Suzy Zoo, and the text is from Create with TLC.(Digi.)

I have colored them with Pro Markers and Brushables.

Flowers and ribbons, etc. from stash.

And of course I have used a bit of Stickles also.

And here is the inside ...

Thank you for stopping by! Enjoy the day.

Hugs, Birgit.
