What a surprise!!

I found out that my pink framed card was chosen as this weeks sweetest - over at Sukkersøtt! I'm SO happy!! :) Thank you so much, ladies!

Jippi!! Mitt rosa rammekort ble kåret til ukens søteste på Sukkersøtt bloggen! :) Jeg er såå glad, en utrolig hyggelig utmerkelse! Snakk om inspirasjons kick! ;)

Baby Girl

Another pink baby card! It feels like I'm the only one without a little baby - or one on the way. Also, "everyone" has gotten girls! That means a lot of pink cards for "auntie Marte" to make.. :)

This time, I've tried to make a vintage baby card. Not so easy, but I think the image is really cute!

Congratulations to Anne Sofie and Ron - with little Tora! :)

2 Challenges

I continue my resolution for 2009 - by participating in challenges in this fabolous world of blogging! This post containes two cards, for two different challenges.

The first one; Challenge #29 - Sukkersøtt

"Frame it!"

The challenge is to frame the image, and this is my interpretation of the inspirational task:

Papers: A gift from my friend, Camilla. (Tusen takk kjære deg!)

Frame and wings is from a cut out sheet from Tone Finnager, Panduro

Flowers: Prima. The white flowers is also a gift from Camilla! :)

Heart: Melissa Frances

Lace and ribbon from Mols.

Card #2; Recipe Challenge - Go Green, StampARTic

"And the challenge is...Go green! Make a card using something green and something recycled (= not originally a craft item)"

Not easy to see, but the card is green - and the paper from Graphic 45 papers;Baby 2 Bride, is actually more light green than shown in the picture.

My recycled items is: bits of a brown paper bag

pepper

White feathers from my duvet.

♥ Valentines Day ♥

Happy Valentines day! ♥ Today I will show you a little chocolate giftbag I've made for two of my good friends, and neighbours. The design is quite easy, and I thought they'd look best if they were kept simple. That's why they are almost identical ;)

I've also entered this as my participation over at "Stamp Something" Chocolate challenge!

En fin dag å sette litt ekstra pris på gode venner og naboer! :) Jeg har laget to enkle og nesten like sjokolade poser - og håper de faller i smak! ;)

Ha en god dag!

Yesterday, Ronny and I went through a lot of old pictures. We reminisced "the old days" - and we've done so much fun together. We also could see that we've grown older, the wrinkles around the eyes and the "relationship weight"... Ha-ha!

Vintage Rose

It has been a lovely day! The sun is shining, and even though that is the only sign of spring - I felt like making a really "springy" card. The card made me really happy, the light pink, green and mint color is perfect in this sunny weather! ☼

For en nydelig dag! Solen er hittil det eneste tegnet på vår her på Gullhaug, men det var nok til å gi frøken Carlsen vårstemning. Med hjelp fra de nyeste papirene fra Tone Finnager (Panduro) ble dette kortet i rosa, grønt og mint til. Jeg velger å kalle det "Vintage Rose". *kremt*

Papers: Tone Finnager for Panduro - mint rosepaper from the "Springtime" stock

Lace: Panduro

Flowers: Prima

Rose Stamp: Tone Finnager for Panduro, cut out sheet

Old bookpage

The mint colored rose paper is double sided, and is perfect for folding cards.

All the rose images is from the cut out sheet from Tone Finnager for Panduro.

The vintage image is from LoriVintage55's gallery at Deviant Art.

For the tags, I've used a paper also from Tone Finnager - but from another stock, called "Classic"

☼ For Svigermor ☼

Min kjære svigermor har bestilt et bursdagskort til en kollega. Jeg storkoser meg når jeg får frie tøyler - og benyttet anledningen til å prøve meg på litt "sprekere" farger enn vanligvis. Det nye muffins stempelet fra Magnolia er jo perfekt til bursdagskort!

Håper det er brukanes, Marilyn! :)

My dear mother in law ordered a birthday card for her colleague. I used the opportunity to make a card in brighter colors than I normally do. The new cupcake stamp from Magnolia is perfect for birthday cards!

Sukkersøtt utfordring #27 - Valentine

Mitt bidrag til Valentines utfordringen på Sukkersøtt bloggen er en pute med tilhørende kort. Valentinsdagen er en fin dag å bli minnet på at noen er glad i deg - og jeg skal nok finne noen å gi gaven min til ;)

My partisipation for this weeks challenge at Sukkersøtt is a vintage pillow with a matching card. Valentines day is a good day to show someone you care - and I'm sure I will find someone to give my gift to ;)
