"Rise and Shine" mixed media

Do you watch the Live with Prima videos? Well I do as often as I can, just love them! So the other day I see this one: Here with Jamie Dougherty and I just had to try it out!

And Here there is a video! But I didn´t get the end, I hope you like it :)

I don´t have any Bloom girl stamps so I draw one.

 I used "spiced marmalade" to make her like the sun. The book pages I added for more texture like clouds.

 And sense she is the sun the title is "Rise and Shine" , written, dymo and washi tape.

 Her crown is a round metal flower piece cut in half, the other half becomes her necklace.

I really happy with here and I´ll hope you like her and the video :)

Swing with me -card- *new video*

Happy Thursday to you!
Today´s card and Video is made with my newest paperpas: MME, Lost & Found ROSY 6*6. The papers are so pretty and there are both neutrals and allot of colors. The stamp is from Wee stamps (Bird swing) and is colored with distress markers; "weathered wood" & "Victorian velvet".

Roses are "spiced marmalade" (ink) and perfect pearl "Kiwi" and the leafs are a cut up metal flower.

 The oval metal is also cut up and both metal pieces are from Pyhobby. I just love the bookpage that is the index page hens the roman number.

I hope you like this card and the Video and I´ll hope to see you soon :)

Make It Easy! -new video-

As you all know I love making cards with allot of flowers and pearl, he more the better. But I know that not everyone like that, have that or even have time for that so today comes a card that is so easy to make, tops 5 min! (and HERE is the new video, explaining everything...)

Make It Easy with just left over papers and a stamp and just like that you have a really cute and finished card.

 In the back HERE you can see the other card from the same paper-sheet. I made both of this from 1 double sided 12*12.  And I still have a 6*5 piece left...

 So easy and jet so cute, why not try a flower or a cross now when all the confirmations is coming up.

 The paper pad I used have allot of cut-out and I took one for the inside. This you don´t need to do if you have a lighter cardstock as base (or a really good white pen ;) )

So even if you just have 5 min to make a card it still can be really good. The trick is to have a shape the you know and can work with. Give it a try and and I hope you like it :)

Bunny´s Birthday- card

Happy Easter to you all! Right now there is feathers everywhere here and mom is boiling eggs like crazy. So I´m sneaking away to right this post.

This week I got a package with amazing stamps one of them is this "Bunny´s Birthday" by Crissy Armstrong for Whimsy stamps. I was so excited to try it out I totally forgot to film it. But I did film when I put the card together :) So here is the card and the video is up: Here

The papers are from Panduro- Tilda- Country Escape

And yes, I used my distress markers and pumice stone to the bunny. That marker is amazing! So glad that I got that one. I did try to make more "fur" and I think it turned out really well.

I hope you like this card and the Video and I´ll see you later :)

Hello, today is all about this layout  of Heffa. I should explaine that I met this king charles spaniel at My Dog 2014 and she just melted my heart. If I could have any dog, it would be her. So sens I can´t have her I thought I make a layout to remember her. Any way here are allot photos!

Thank you for stopping bye...

Super Easy Card

Hello, all crafty people!
Making cards are fun but sometimes you´ll have to make them fast and them it´s not so fun. But if you only have 10 min to make a birthday card, don´t fear. The key is to have a simple template to follow. I made a quick video to show you just how easy it is to make: Here

On this card I used 1 sheet of cardstock (DCWV- mat stack) and 1 sheet patterned paper (basic grey- lucille) You can use any papers, the best is double-sided or from the same collection.

 Stamp- wild rose- Party presents . I used distress marker and you can see it Here
Another tip is to have ready images, when I don´t feel inspired I color stamps. This way I´ll always have ready images and it gets the inspiration going.

Don´t forget to check out the new videos and come back soon
