Fantasy/ Fairy Tale @ I ❤️ ProMarkers


Hello again.
I’m here to show you my DT-card for the new challenge over at
I ❤️ ProMarkers

Our sponsor this week is
Meljens Designs

and the theme for the week is
Fantasy/ Fairy Tales

I have made a birthdaycard, a little «boyish» I like to think.
-isn’t this Chinese Dragon just perfect for a boys card?
Very simple decorated, just a few pearls through a piece of a drinkingstraw and a piece of burlap underneath the birthdaygreeting. I used the burlap most to fit the inside DP, to fit the front and inside more together, sort of…

A little magnet under the DPs holds the card closed:

Insides of the card:

Front- and back of the card:

Distress Those Edges @ I ❤️ ProMarkers


Good Morning to you all.
Doesn’t time jus fly away! March already!
It feels like yesterday we had December and christmas…
Yet I really love the winter time - even darkest days and the days with the worse weather - I love it when spring arrives and the days are longer, when the sun start to warm a little…
-Oh, and yesterday we found lots of coltsfoot outside!
It’s springtime!

Well, enough about that. It’s Wednesday again, and time for a new challenge over at
I ❤️ ProMarkers

Stitchy Bear 

I have used the lovely image «Berry» from Stitchy Bear

The theme for this weeks challenge is
Distress Those Edges

So for this challenge I have made an easel card, where I have ripped, torn and inked - really distressed - all paperedges.
With these rough egdes I tried to use more soft, sweet decorations and colours. I think it worked out rather well with both glitter and bling on this card.

I ❤️ ProMarkers

This weeks challenge has the theme
Animals

Our sponsor for this challenge is

I have used the image «Circus Lion» for my card.
DPs are from Basic Grey, the «Gratulerer» (Congratulations) die is from KaBoks.
I put on some ribbons in the same «happy colours» as the DPs and the image.
The kite has been laying in a drawer for years, waiting for the right project.
This card is for a child, so again I tried to use bright colours.
It’s made as an easelcard - long time since I used this folding technique, yet I really like the way the card is on display at an easelcard.
-and here’s the card, from different angles:

Lots of Love @ I ❤️ ProMarkers

Hello again

Today I’m here to show you the Paperbag I decorated for the new challenge over at

This weeks challenge has the theme
Lots of Love

 Our sponsor this week is
Letraset

Here is my paperbag. It’s, of course, decorated with several hearts, both dies and a charm. I made the hearts with the torn edges by taping the dies to the DP and tear around the dies instead of running it through the machine.
All paperedges are inked (DistressInk WalnutStain), and after they’re attached together I randomly splatted on some white gesso.
I tied two bows of seambindingribbon that I put together. Onto it I put a button with a bow of twine and a heartcharm attached. I also used some flowers and laces to decorate it.
The image is one of Sherri Baldys My Besties. It’s coloured with Pro- and TriaMarkers. You’ll find a full list of colourcombinations below the picture of the image.
Around the image I sprinkled on some Shabby White Frantage.



Pro- and TriaMarkers used to colouring the image:
Skin: Ivory, Dusky Pink, Tan, Blush, Sunkissed Pink
Hair: Buttercup, Tan
Eyes: C618
Mouth: Blossom
Clothes: Satin, Tan, Denim Blue, C618, Blender
Hearts and Roses: Blossom, Pale Blossom
Leaves: Pear Green
Shoes: Tan, Blender
Rings in the hair: Silver Lining
Shadow around image: Warm Grey1, Blender

Hello again to you all.
Today I’ll show you the card I made for the new challenge over at
My Besties Norge

The theme for this challenge is
Alt er tillatt
Anything Goes

I have used the supercute image IMG440 from Sherri Baldys My Besties
You can find all of her images in her stores

Scrapbook Stamp Society

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:
