Magnolia love

A very creative week.

I was up early today and went down to my crafting heaven.

All of theese new stamps and a new number of Magnolia ink makes me sooo inspired.

This little darling is perfect for any occasion.

I have a friend who absolutly means the world to me and she´s allways there for me and my family. This is for her!

I´ve decorated the envelope this time. Mabye I whant to wright something special and secret, not for evryone to read.

The dies are from Magnolia and Nellie Snellen. The lovely black flowers I found at Magnolia as well as the white flowers.

I colored with distress ink and I had a hard time coloring her hair.

Love my white gel pen.

You´re my Tiger!

Can´t stop myself from inking theese new stamps up.

This little Tiger Tilda is from Magnolias latest collection and I love her!

I made a circular card with my circlecutter from Martha Stewart.

It´s really fab if you make round cards.

Tried to make a jungle theeme on the card.

Lots of flowers and bugs and swirls in green.

Isn´t she a cutie?!

I´ve always loved my promarkers but I´m falling in love with coloring with my distress inks.

A little gift with Pysselmyrans stamps

I´ve seen theese bottleboxes a few times and now it was finally time to make one.

Have been looking for a toutorial but couldn´t find one.

It went fine anyway and I made a quick drawing that you can see below.

I placed it on a circular paper just over 4 inch and decorated the edges with some lace.

After placing some flowers there weren´t much place left.

On the edges obove ( were you place the bow) I used dies from Nellie Snellen that you use for corners and the snowflakes made perfect holes for the ribbon.

The papers from Maja design and all of the stamps you can find at Pysselmyran.

I´ve colored them with Pro Markers and distressed all edges with Walnut stain.

 

The little santas in the windows are my new favorits.
I´m going to put the on my christmas tags this year.



I hope you´ll try this,

Have a fun weekend!

Get inspired by Maja Design, new stamps!

Hi!

Just made this new alter for paper napkins.

It´s good to recycle!

This little girls name´s Ella and the stamp´s called "Ella with a candle".

I just adore Maja Designs patterned papers and I was so glad to see the stamps and the beautiful details. You can find both (stamps and papers) here at Pysselmyran.

I colored Ella with Pro Markers. As base I used "Green tea" and I just love that color.

The papers are old and I havn´t got a clue were there are from.

The dies on the back is from Nellie Snellen and I use them a lot. Love them!

See you again soon!

Hugs

Christmas at Pysselmyran

Today I was quick to go down to my craftingroom to try my new stamps from Pysselmyran were I´m the newest DT member. I was very proud when Sofia asked me to join the team.

The new stamps "Like a Fairytale" are a fantastic set that you can mask and use in a number of ways. You just must have a look!

I made this card with Maja Designs newest vintercollection. Love the details in theese gorgeous papers. I´ve used Pro Markers to color the image. The die´s from Nellie Snellen and as snow I´ve used Flower soft.

On the little charm it says "Belive", and you do belive in Santa don´t you?

Here you can see the hole set and here at Pysselmyrans page you can see ways to mask them.

Tilda in a bag

I went to Kinnarp yesterday with my dear friend Lina.

There was a scrapmarathon from 10-22, lots of tasty food, nice crafty people, contests and lots more!

I had so much fun!

Made this little "shakerbag" instead of a card in a "bowlcontest".

Got 3 foldet papers were it said:

Use only white

Use 8 brads

Use glitter

Evrybody who entered got different notes, so the results were very different.

I´ve used Magnolias Tilda, papers and flowers.

Just like Camilla told me on the Magnolia open houseday I´ve used "gelantinblad" (have no clue how to translate that word) as window.

The lace is from a fleamarket I went to this summer.

Got the silverleafes from the scrapmarathon hos Pysselmyran yesterday.

Absolutly love them!!

I used a silver inkpad to color the edges.

The image is colored with distress inks.

Papers from Panduro outlet.

I really like using a brush.

I found a challenge at http://magnoliastamplovers.blogspot.com/ that I´m entering this card in. The challenge is "Black".

I love this time of year.

It´s just as if nature whants to give us an artshow with all theese colors.

When the sun shines and the wind isn´t to cold it´s perfect!

Love this tecnique!

I´ve used a big Spellbinders die cut to cut out the image.

It is a favorite!

On the tag you can write a secret message..

Cutesy at Charisma

Hi!

When it comes to stamps and crafting there´s lots of things that´s cute,

so this weeks challenge at Charisma cardz challenges is really easy.

You know I love Magnolias little Tilda and she´s allways the cutest, isn´t she?!

Don´t remember were I saw this folding but it´s just adorable I think.

I made this set of christmascards in three different colors.

Not anything red on them!

It´s funny to do something different.

I´m entering theese in http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.com/ this week.

Have a really nice day!

Fall break!! Time to craft!

Feels as if I haven´t done anything creative for a while now.

Been coloring som images of little Tilda and now it was time to give her

a place to live with her other friends ;) 

I got inspired when I went to the Magnoliastore the other day

to get the new Magnolia ink.

I didn´t by any stamps this time!!

That´s the first time that ever happened!

Still no memorycard in the camera so theese pictures are really bad. Sorry!

In the back I´ve masked this little Tilda with a tree.

Love the framed image of the cottages in the woods.

Had a hard time figuring out how to color the sky with my pro markers.

I used a really dark brown-grey with a couple of blues.

On the trees I´ve used a pen with paint that I embossed to get this snowy effect.

I did it to cover up my misstakes coloring the trees ;)

Don´t really now how to colour the trees right.

In the new Magnolia inc they showed how to color this little Tilda.

Tried my best and I´m pleased with it.

All papers are from Magnolia as well as the flowers and leafes.
