Bruk Stempel/ Use stamps @ Storyteller


Good Morning.
It's time for a new Storyteller challenge again. The theme for this challenge is to Use Stamps.
Remeber that at least one of the products on your project has to be from Storyteller.
If you are unsure if some of the products you have are from Storyteller, just take a look here.


Here's my project, to inspire you to join the challenge.
Stamps do not only have to be used on papers or cards.
I have stamped Santas head on white shrinkplastik and made a pair of earrings.
The earrings are used as decor on a gift-tag, to make a little extra gift on a christmas present (I like making a little extra out of the giftwrapping...)
Here's what I used making the tag and earrings:
DPs: Authentique
Tag: Storyteller (ST-009445)
Stamps, image + text: Storyteller ( images from ST-009858, ST003030, text from a retired set)
Ribbon: Storyteller (ST-007328)
Ink: StazOn and DistressInk WalnutStain
White Shrinkplastik

And here's the tag:

close-up of the earrings:

Back of the tag, the "To-From"-panel is fastened with a red little brad, and holds the earrings in place...

to loosen the earrings you'll just turn the panel a little:

Your Favourite Song @ I ❤️ ProMarkers


Good Morning to you all.
I'm here today to show you my DT-entry and to invite you to the new challenge over at
I ❤️ ProMarkers

Sponsor for this weeks challenge is
Live And Love Crafts

The Prize is a £10 Gift Certificate


This weeks theme is
Your Favourite Song

First of all I must apologize for few and bad pictures this week.
My computer broke down the other day, and when I decided to throw it out of the craftroom I got a little carried away. So now I'm practically rearranging my whole craftroom. The whole room is in a mess, and the place where I usually does all my photographing - well, I couldn't find it...
Please bare over with me for a little while. I hope that I'll get thing back in order by the weekend, 'cause I really can't stand all the mess in there!

Well, back to the challenge;
I really can't say I have an over all favourite song, but amongst all the songs I like is the norwegian christmas song Vi tenner våre lykter.
I even like it so much I've bought a stamp with the text from the song some years ago.
With this text I think this little Magnolia image is just perfect.
I also used DPs from Magnolia on this card.
To decorate it I put on: Laces, Flowers, Swirls, pearlstrings, Seambindingribbon, a charm and lots of white halfpearls. I also used several dies to cut out decorations. All over this I dripped and rubbed on white Gesso.
Here's the card:


I'll join these challenges:
Marvelous Magnolia #88 - BOWnanza
Magnolia Forever #6 - Add a Charm
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra - Anything Goes as long as it's Christmas

Today I’ll show you the card I made for the new challenge over at

With this card I’m back to my pale colours, the «vintage-Shabby» style I like so much.
I’ve used DPs from FabScraps, dies from Spellbinders, Magnolia and Marianne design.
Here are laces and pearlstrings, white seambindingribbontied into a bow, with small clocks tied on. Around the image I put on a little Chunky White Frantage.
-And of course the paperedges are inked with DistressInk WalnutStain.


Inside; panels made with Martha Stewart PATP-set and a stamp from Papirdesign:



Luckily this part of the paper was at the right bottom corner of the DP - perfect to put on the back of the card:

Snowflakes @ My Besties International


Hello, and welcome to my little space.
I’m here to show you my card for the new challenge over at
My Besties International

This challenge has the theme
Snowflakes

I hope that I can inspire you to join our challenge,
there’ll be great prizes for the winners as well.

I have made a christmas card for this challenge - and of course I’ve put on lots of snowflakes.
I simply love my Snowflake dies and punches.
I have used Sherri Baldys supercute image IMG4462 on my card.
You can find all of her images in her stores

DPs on the card are from Papirdesign. I put cheesecloth and laces between all paperlayers. The bow is tied of seambindingribbon, and the little pin attached to it is «made by me». There’s also a silvercoloured snowflakecharm attached to the bow.
The stamped text is from Kort & Godt. In the middle of most of the snowflakes I put white halfpearls.
-Of course the cardstock- and paperedges are inked with DistressInk WalnutStain…I don’t feel the card is «finished» without inked paperedges…

Winter @ My Besties Norge

Good Morning, and Happy New Year
to all friends, followers and other crafters out there
I have started this year trying to get my workspace a little more organized, but, oh, it will be a lot of job sorting all those little things. What gives me kind of a headache now is the charms, ribbons and laces… I really need to find a system for them!
-And all my papers! I SO need one of those paper racks where I can both store and see what I have.
Well - Pinterest is a fantastic place to find great storing solutions, so I’m sure I’ll find something that will work for my room.

My first post for 2015 is to show you my DT-entry for the new challenge over at
My Besties Norge

The challenge has the theme
Winter
(But Christmas is also accepted)

For this challenge I made an advent candlestick - you know one where we light one more candle for each Sunday during the advent. It’s made of a matchbox, and has a perfect handbag size :)
The matchbox is decorated with DP from Papirdesign. 
I’ve used the image Snow Pretty Snow man Winter by Sherri Baldy
You can find all of her images in her stores
Sherri’s Etsy Store
Scrapbook Stamp Society
My Besties Store
Underneathe the image I tucked a little cheesecloth, and tied a seambindingribbon into a bow below the image. Onto the bow I attached two little silverbells.
I also put on several, «randomly placed» punched snowflakes and blingstones.

I divided the inside of the matchbox into two rooms; one for the matches and one for the 4 candles:

The candles (and candleholders) are the ones you buy for cakes:
