Birthday @ Storyteller

Good Morning To You All.
Today we have a new challenge for you over at
Storyteller
with the fantastic theme
Birthday
That’s fun, or what?
We all make birthdaycards, so I hope many of you will join us for this one.
-just remember to use Storytellerproduct on your project :)

I have waited sooo to show you the card I made for this challenge.
I can’t remember to have made anything this boldcoloured or -patterned.
I used Primas Mixed Media Doll Stamp 1, with paperpieced clothes - oh that was FUN!
I chose not to colour or draw a face to the stamped image. I just cut out and glued down the clothes, and added Glitterstickles to the hair.
Because the image is quite tall, the card had to be in a larges size than I normally do, this is about 8x5 inches.

Materiallist:

Cardstock: Bazzill

DPs: Prima

Stamp: Prima

Flowers, Ribbon, Butterfly: Storyteller
Glitterstickles, Glimmermist (Rose Tea), GlimmerGlam (Tutu Pink), DistressInk WalnutStain

Homemade Pin

The inside of the card has a very simplified version of the outsidesketch, and just a little stamped greeting (Kort & Godt)

The back of the card is made as the front, but without any image

I’ll enter the following challenges with my Birthdaycard:
Fan-Tastic Tuesday #32 - Anything Goes
Crafty Catz #228 - Anything Goes
Brown Sugar #91 - Anything goes
Sister Act #54 - Cards Only
Creative Knockouts #34 - Anything Goes

So Long

Red and Pink for Mothers Day

I have joined in on Anonyme Scrapperes "Anonyme Timeglass"-challenge.
I just hope I find time and inspiration to finish all 4 coming challenges.
The theme for all challenges will be Valentine/ Love, and this first challenge is called Red or Pink.
Having only a day to complete each project it can be difficult for me, who can sit moving around bits and pieces for hours - well, maybe it is just this kind of challenge I need once in a while...
I couldn't decide wether to use red or pink, but then I came to think about a few other challenges going on, that wanted us to use red and pink together.
Red and pink!
I can't remember to have tried that before!
Funny - I had to give it a go, and here is my project:

This is a card for my mother (firstcoming Sunday is Mothersday in Norway). Well, it's not only a card, it is a folder where she can put her Bingosheets.
Every Tuesday night our local radiostation arranges bingo, and I know she likes to play bingo, so I decided to make this one for her (and to put some Bingostuff in it - unfortunately I forgot to buy the other sheet they use to play...still many days 'till Sunday, still time to buy it... :D)
I used cardstock from Bazzill and DPs from Pion. The image is a Magnolia, coloured with ProMarkers and dressed in a paperpieced dress. I used a Spellbinders die for the panels behind Tilda. All edges are distressed (DistressInk WalnutStain). Then I decorated with lace, gazcloth, pearls, Liquid Pearls, flowers, pearlstrings, punched hearts, ribbons and bows. The Bingosheet is printed from the internet, I also sprayed two tags (one pink and one red) and stamped a little greeting onto them. On the punched hearts on the leftside of the card I wrote "MAMMA" ("MOTHER" in norwegian)
(Think,and hope, I remembered everything).
The next picture shows the inside, where I made two "pockets" to put the Bingosheets,

...and the backside. Very simple, but I had to show the lovely DP from Pion.

So, I'll send my mothers Bingofolder for these challenges:
Anonyme Scrappere, Anonyme Timeglass - Red or Pink
Totally Tilda - Pink and Red Together
Cupcake Craft Challenges - Pink and Red
NSHK - Hjerter (Hearts)
I Love ProMarkers - Love is in the Air

(and hope she won't visit my blog before Sunday ;)
