Sizzix Graceful Flourish Tag

Hi again.
I know I have showed you this die from Sizzix earlier, but I have to say it has become one of my favourite dies. I think it works so well with my shabby chic, vintage projects

Sizzix Thinlits Die Graceful Flourish by Pete Hughes

Here I have used it on a shabby chic tag.
The tag has an old christmas light holder glued on.
The light holder attaches the tag to the belt wrapped around the magazines.
This way the magazines don't make just a pile of clutter, but become a little decoration.

I hope you'll like it:

Vintage/ Retro @ I ❤️ ProMarkers

Good Morning to you all
As this post goes live I'm on my way for a little christmas shopping. Just a couple of days in the city for some last presents and a little more exciting christmas candies and food than what the one shop at the island has - and of course I plan to visit my favorite shop in Bodø; Trel...

But first, it's Wednesday and time for a new challenge over at
I ❤️ ProMarkers

This challenge will be the last this year, and has the theme

Vintage/ Retro

and our sponsor is

The Paper Shelter

Prize is a $15 voucher

I got the image Little Hazel, and made a christmas card with it.
The image is colored with ProMarkers, for the icy details I used lily white glitter from Doodlebug design. DPs are from Authentique "Cozy" collection.
The paper edges are inked with DistressInk WalnutStain.
To decorate the card I used cheesecloth, laces, seambindinribbon, several snowflake-dies, a snowflake charm, white poinsettias and a drinking straw. The stamped texts are from Kort & Godt.

Snowflakes

Good Morning everyone.

Only 30-few days until Christmas,

I have found one of my beloved Magnoliastamps again, and made a blue and white, wintertime christmascard.

The image is coloured with ProMarkers. DPs are MajaDesign Vintage Frost Basics. I used lots of different dies for decorations on the card. I put some cheesecloth under the image and a little Frantage (Chunky White) around it. I also used laces, halfpearls and pearlstrings, some swirls, a snowflakecharm. Two silverbells are attached to the bow made of seambindingribbon.

I used the new DistressInk HickorySmoke on the paperedges - great colour, but I don't think it'll be a new favourite like the WalnutStain is...

On the left inside I made a pocket to hold two tags - either to stamp or write greetings on, or simply to use as gifttags. On the right side I placed a writing panel, made with a Punch Around The Page set from Martha Stewart.

On the back of the card I put on a die cut made with my new dies from Xcut (docrafts)....

...isn't it just gorgeous??? I LOVE it!

Food and Drink @ I ❤️ ProMarkers

Good Morning to you all.

It's Wednesday again, and time for a new challenge over at 

I ❤️ ProMarkers

The theme for this one is

Food and Drink

This week we've been sponsored by Just Inklined, and I've used the image Gnome Brew on my card. On my christmas card. These days I only have christmas projects going on. I feel the christmas spirit coming more and more each day. I really love this time of the year.
The image is colored with ProMarkers. I wanted to try a little different colour combo than the red/ grey I normally would have used for a gnome, and think this blue/ green worked out quite well.
I've used DPs from Papirdesign. To decorate the card I used lots of snowflake dies, cheesecloth, seam binding ribbon, a snowflake charm and glitters tickles on some of the snowflakes. 
Inside the card I stamped christmas greetings from Storyteller and Kort&Godt.
Here's my christmas card:
