More 'With love'...

More 'With love'!

When I was making cards yesterday I did a whole lot of painting before achieved the result that I wanted. Not all of them were bad, but they didn't have that soft look that I wanted. One of them was painted with Copics and the colors were a little stronger. When I tried that one on a bright green panel I got a whole different look that I also was happy with. I added some distress color around the flower to make it pop and then I added some Wink of Stella on the flower.
I'm entering this card to the June challenge of Scrap Africa (mood board). I just can't get enough of those pretty colors! I love those shades of green, turqoise and pink.
I'm also entering the June challenge of Seven Hills Crafts (sketch). I'm really not good with sketches, I have to follow them almost completely. I have just made the panel bigger on my card.

With love

With love

When I saw the photo inspiration in the June challenge at Waffle flower I just knew that I had to play along. I love that summery palette of colors. I even found Copics in the exactly right colors (later I changed to distress colors because I didn't get the look that I wanted).

Berry71bleu also have a mood board in their June challenge with lovely soft, summery colors. The photos in both challenges are exactly the style that I want in my home. The photos makes me happy and full of life, and sooo creative!

I'm also very much into flowers at the moment. It might be the season! We are having a lovely weather here in Sweden and everything is so beautiful right now. Sometimes I just go outside, sit down on the porch and just look at the garden and the greenery and just sigh with happiness! I love this season!
I have a stamp set with flowers which I just got and like very much, but I don't know the brand of it. I think it's of a cheaper brand, but it's very pretty anyway. I decided to use that one and I went for a soft look and a quite CAS card. As I mentioned, I started out with my Copics but I didn't get the look that I wanted, so after a lot of trial and error I moved on to my distress colors. I white embossed the image on watercolor paper and then I painted the flower with Distress Markers. I also gave the background a wash to make the flower pop out a bit. I painted with Wink of Stella around the flower and added some sequins. Finally I die cut the sentiment and white embossed that as well.

Craft Stamper Take It, Make It Challenge - June

 
 
I'm not sure if this is the inlaid die cutting technique or not but I've seen someting similar on the Internet when using dies with intricate patterns. Instead of removing all of the small pieces you leave them in the paper and then you color chosen parts.
I'm really bad at die cutting and I haven't got the patience to remove all of the itty bitty pieces so I thought this was the technique for me, but no! This was also difficult. I ended up with half of the panel really nice cut and half like I wanted it to be. I decided to have a go anyway and just see where it would end.
I started coloring my die cut panel with watered down Distress Inks before I glued the panel onto a cardbase. I wanted my card to shimmer a bit so I used an apricot mist. It was the wrong color, so I tried to wipe it off straight away and then I misted the card again with a more neutral color.
I really like white embossing on black, I see it everywhere now. I like the contrast it gave to the otherwise soft look. And finally, some sequins! I love sequins!
I'm using a few inks on this card so I'm joining the Craft Stamper June Take It, Make It Challenge where the theme for this month is: Let's Get Inky.

Swe scrapbook - färgutmaning




Här kommer ett bidrag till Swe scrapbooks färgutmaning.
Jag gillar ju att använda upp saker som jag får över. Av överblivet material från 12 tags of 2016 - March så slängde jag ihop dessa två kort.
När man stansar ut något så kan man ju både använda det utstansade samt det man stansar ut ifrån. I 12 tags of 2016 använde jag det jag stansade ut en kanin i och här använder jag kaninen. Jag använde också en utstansad doily, här använder jag det jag stansade ut den ifrån. Det är perfekt! Man ska verkligen inte slänga något! (och det är också förklaringen till att mitt pysselrum svämmar över! ;-) )

Swe scrapbook - teknik/mixed media - geometriska former



Idag på Swe scrapbook har vi skapat med geometriska former. Kanske min stämpel inte riktigt passade in men jag bestämde mig för att vara lite kreativ - den består ju både av cirklar, ovaler och streck!

Jag började med att stansa ut en panel av akvarellpapper. Jag blötte pappret och duttade ut distressfärger. Sprayade på ännu mer vatten för att få dem att blanda sig och rinna lite. När pappret hade torkat så stansade jag ut en fyrkant från min panel och på fyrkanten stämplade jag och embossade med vitt embossingpulver. Fäste tillbaka fyrkanten med distanskuddar och slutligen stansade jag ut ordet 'hello' och embossade även det för att få lite samstämdhet på kortet.

Paper Smooches: April challenge



I found this fun challenge over at Paper Smooches blog. The challenge was to create something black/white with a pop of color.
I knew straight away that I wanted a repeated pattern and flowers. Something CAS and something looking a bit like from the 50's.
This is a card I made for a collegue who retired yesterday. She indeed has colored my corridor at work!

I also wanted to incorporate micro beads with the embossing powder. However it was not very easy! I planned to cover the whole flower with micro beads, I think about 20 of them got stucked! I think I got a nice texture anyway.

I started by repeat stamping a  leaf from Paper Smooches in black, then I added the small flowers from the same stamp set.
I embossed a stamped flower multiple times and tried to add the micro beads. Even though my plan didn't succeed I'm quite pleased with the outcome. I cut the flower out and also some leaves. I also cut out the sentiment. I didn't know where to put it so I ended up tucking it inside the flower at one side, which got very nice!
I needed to frame the card with something so I decided to sew a frame. My sewing machine decided to mess with me so the nice frame I had in mind didn't get that nice and straight! And to add to the more wild and creative look that the card took, I added some Baker's Twine underneath the sentiment.

Waffle Flower Challenge - April





In the april challenge on the Waffle Flower blog there is a photo to be inspired from. I really liked the colors and the flowers and I knew straight away what I wanted to make. I absolutely love this doily die, but it's quite tricky to cut so I thought that I could fold it to look like paper to wrap flowers in. By doing that I would hide any mistakes. Since it's quite detailed I wanted the flowers to be more simple, so they are just circles and scalloped circles. Even the leaves are circles, folded in halves.
The patterned paper I cut the circles from is my absolute favorite paper. With this project I used up every little piece that was left of it. I'm actually a bit sad!
To finish the card off  I added some transparent sequins in the middle of the flowers (circles), blue sequins and some dew drops in the bouquet of flowers.

Pyssloteket välkomnar våren...



... och det gör jag med! Även om det inte känns så vårligt för tillfället, helgen bjöd på grått ruskväder och tidigare i veckan så snöade det en förmiddag. Det föll stora flingor, det var en sådan här riktig julaftonssnö! Det hade varit underbart att haft den i julas, lite mindre kul i mitten av april! Tur att den inte låg kvar länge.
Pyssloteket har en vårlig tävling just nu och temat är just vår och man ska  inspireras av en moodboard.



Det är nog egentligen inte så svårt att se vad jag blev inspirerad av! Jag tror jag föll för bilden av körsbärsblom (?) för att en släkting är i Japan just nu och jag är så ohyggligt avundsjuk på honom. Jag riktigt ser all körsbärsblom framför mig, jag känner till och med doften! Och så tänker jag på all fantastisk shopping;  alla pennor, alla akvarellfärger och allt scrap som går att hitta där! Jag gillar den japanska stilen. Jag har faktiskt lagt en beställning med honom, men jag hade väldigt gärna tagit lite på sakerna också! ;-) Det kan ju finnas något som jag inte vet att jag behöver!

Jag stämplade och embossade med vitt embossingpulver på baksidan av akvarellpapper (baksidan är slätare), sedan målade jag med distress ink refills. Jag stansade sedan ut ordet 'hello' från mitt målade motiv och fem gånger till från lite spillpapper. Limmade fast mitt motiv på kortbasen och byggde upp ordet 'hello' så att det står upp från bakgrunden. Jag gillar den här tekniken, texten smälter in i kortet så bra. Ordet 'spring' stämplade och embossade jag på en remsa vellum med några gamla, snygga bokstavsstämplar och till sist sydde jag fast vellumremsan på kortet.
Nu får våren gärna komma på riktigt!

Words & Paintery: March 2016



I found a really nice and fun challenge at Words & Paintery where they celebrate the word of Marilyn Monroe. We were supposed to use pink and red colors and that color scheme really speaks to me at the moment. I wanted to create a soft, delicate, fragile and stunning card. Just like Marilyn Monroe! I really like the softness of my card.

I started by stamping and embossing the image on the backside of watercolor paper, since it was the smoothest side. Then I painted the image with distress inks to achieve a watercolor look. I cut some sentences from coffee filter sheets which I glued down with a texture gel with glass beads. I started to like the extra dimension that it gave so I added some crackle paint and some diamond dust as well. Finally, I dyed some flowers with the ink and attached them with brads in copper. I really love copper at the moment and think it gave the card that little extra.
The card looks frosty, it crackles and shines like a diamond. That reminds me of Marilyn Monroe as well! I wish the photos did do the card justice.

AAA Cards: Game #61: Stencilling


Over at AAA Cards there is a fun challenge going on and the cards the AAA Card Team have made are just awesome! Check them out! I was so inspired and I decided to try the technique double stencilling out and this is what I came up with.




The double stencilling technique means you stencil, you ink, you put another stencil on top, you ink again in the same colour for a tone on tone pattern. Justine from the AAA Card Team made a video about it here.
I made a stencil/mask from my beloved bunny die and then I used a heart stencil. I used three different distress inks. I die-cutted three hearts from the top of the panel and then I glued the die cuts back at the bottom.

Swe scrapbook - teknik: PL-kort

Swe scrapbook har utmanat oss att skapa något annat än Project Life med PL-kort. Jag köpte faktiskt mina PL-kort just med tanke på att använda dem till annat, jag tycker de passar ypperligt till kort. Det är knappt att man behöver ta fram pappersskäraren, det är bara att klistra fast dem!


Det som tog tid på detta kort var färgläggningen. Jag tycker faktiskt det börjar bli roligare och roligare att färglägga. Tror att det beror på att jag börjar få ihop en liten Promarkers-samling nu och då är det ju lättare att få snygga färgövergångar och skuggor.
Det behövs ju inte så mycket när man använder snygga PL-kort men jag ville lägga till lite mer färg. Hittade på ett band med självhäftande hjärtan som hade samma färg som tjejens hår. Koppar är ju en färg som är modern nu så jag färgade in en charm med kopparfärg samt målade kvinnans örhänge i koppar.

12 tags of 2016 - march


http://timholtz.com/12-tags-of-2016-march/


I haven't been very creative lately. My dad has been ill since the end of last year and had a relapse one month ago. My cat has also been ill, we have to give her medicine (pills) twice a day for the rest of her life and it is a struggle. It. Is. A. Struggle. Many, many, MANY other small, annoying things have also happened. It seems like my life is a downward spiral at the moment. I am exhausted. I am really, really tired. But the only way is up!
Today I felt the urge to make something pretty and came across Tim's 12 tags of 2016 on Instagram. What could be a better way to get the creative juices flowing than trying out his techniques?? It was good therapy spending the afternoon with him!

I used the bunny die that I bought after I fell in love with it after Tim used it on 12 tags of 2013 - march. It is the first time I use it actually! Still haven't made that tag from 2013!
I haven't bought the Distress Crayons yet, they are sold out everywhere here in Sweden. I want them so badly! I chose between using my Gelatos or my Neocolors II, and  chose the Gelatos since you were supposed to smudge the color to blend it. It worked fine. Still going to get the Distress Crayons, though! ;-)



Love these bright colors and the book pages!


My finished tag!

Got a little help (?) from my cat! ;-)

Hobbyworlds oktobertävling


Cancerfondens Rosa Bandet-kampanj genomförs under oktober varje år och på Hobbyworld har man så passande en tävling med samma tema," Rosa bandet". Och till den tävlingen har jag gjort ett julkort helt i rosa.
Bakgrunden är gjord genom att jag stämplat en textstämpel lite slarvigt och sedan har jag stansat ut en mistel och använt som en schablon och duttat ut distress stain och distress paint. Jag har hållit mig till samma färg men använt olika distress-produkter.

Cardabilities - Final Sketch Reveal #132

Celebrate the wonder
(74 Days until Christmas!)

I found a really, really pretty sketch at Cardabilities: Final Sketch Reveal #132. It seems like it is the last? Such a shame, I just found the blog. I am in love with this sketch though and I will use it again. I love when the main image isn't in the middle of the page. I really, really liked creating after this sketch.

I started by playing around with some distress inks on a piece of watercolor paper. I find it really hard to get that beautiful watercolored look that everybody else is getting. I stamped with a text stamp, made some splashes with the distress ink stains and added circles by coloring in an old lid.
Since Christmas is coming up (74 Days left!) I had that in mind and decided only to use greens. I also found some nice mistletoe dies I wanted to use.
I sew the border die onto the card. Since I dont have a stiched die yet I sew on my sewing machine without a thread around the borders.
The frame is made out of Marta Stewarts Crafter's clay and I have had it lying around for ages. It's really fun to make them out of the clay - it has such a nice texture! - but I don't know what to do with the frames after I've made them. I think they really looked nice on this card! Finally I stamped a sentiment in the frame and filled it with 3D glaze and some glitter.

Gummiapan - Challenge #5

Skål ta me fan!

I was thrilled last Friday when the goodie bag I won from challenge #1 at Gummiapan finally arrived. I thought it had been lost in the mail and it really made my day.! The new challenge is 'Something to eat/drink' and some stamps in the goodie bag fitted perfect for that theme! Lucky me!



I won a challenge!!

Happy mail day!

So, I wanted to use the stamp of the glass and the sentiment 'SKÅÅÅL!' ('cheers!'). I decided to make a background with the sentiment since it was kind of small. I stamped the glass in black and masked it. Then I stamped the sentiment in different distress ink colors. I mounted this card on another piece of card which I embossed with dots. I was thinking that the dots could symbolize bubbles. I tied some baker's twine on the card and attached another sentiment made with my dymo. That sentiment says 'skål ta me fan' (cheers damn it') and I think it makes a few Swedes smile! In the '80 there was a show on tv called Jacob's Ladder and the host ended all shows with uncorking a bottle of champagne and said 'Skål ta me fan!'. Those were the days!

Hello sunshine!



Maybe it's the wrong season for this card? Here in Sweden the days are getting shorter and shorter. But I couldn't resist making this card because at A Blog Named Hero (Die Cutting) and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge (No Designer Paper) there are fun challenges going on!
I wanted to use the die cut clouds I bought in Denmark this summer and also a background with clouds from Hero Arts.
I started by adding three different blue/turqoise shades of distress ink directly on the stamp and misted the stamp with water before each impression. I managed to get three impressions without inking the stamp up again. I sprayed the pieces of watercolor paper with some more water before I dried them with my heat gun. I really like how the background turned out!
To make the sun I taped some washi tape on a scrap piece of paper and die-cutted a circle, I cut the rays with a pair of scissors. Since the clouds had holes in them I tried to hide them behind some rhinestones.


Washi tape sun!

I had to make my own sun here in Sweden!

Happy Birthday Ria!

Happy birthday, Ria!
(from me and your daughter!)

This is a birthday card I made for an artsy friend of mine. I wanted the card to be more artsy than cute, I don't know if I succeeded? Maybe I have to put that pink ink away? ;-)

Ria sent me a rubber stamp for my birthday and I just had to use it straight away. It's a stamp with her daughter! Have a look here! I love it! It's so cool to have a stamp with her daughter! I also got one for my birthday last year! Awesome!

I made a resist with Ria's daughter, blended in the distress colors and dripped some water on a scrap piece of paper. Added some more stamps in pumice stone, some grey nail polish and finally the text stamp from Tim Holtz. I finally distressed the edges with pumice stone and added a black line around my image to frame it in.

Happy Holidays!

 
Happy Holidays!


With this card I'm entering Virginia's Wiew Challenge #18 (the theme is geometric/patterns) and A Blog Named Hero's challenge (the theme is happy).
I've used triangels to form Christmas trees. I used black StazOn on the outlined stamp and clear EP on the solid stamp to emphase the triangular shape. I blended in the distress colors and made some splashes with water. I really like this card, it was a fairly quick Christmas card to make!

Everything with this card makes me happy! I'm happy to make use of stamps in ways they might not have been ment to, I'm happy about this resist technique which I love, I'm happy about the distress colors (love, love, love!), I'm happy for the Christmas season coming up soon and I'm happy because I've made four Christmas Cards already! ;-)

Fabulous!

September really is the birthday month! I think I know someone who is born on every day in september!
This card is made for a newfound scrapping friend and I'm joining the challenges at Scrappa Loss (the challenge is to make something feminine and to use lace) and at Crafty Ribbons Challenge (the theme is birthday and of course: ribbons) with it.
The card is made in the same way as I described in Take It Make It challenge: September  but to make the card extre feminine I added some more gold foil at the bottom and some lace ribbon to cover the gap.
