Vintage ribbons

New challenge at Crafty Ribbons: 

"Ribbon and buttons"

Here's the card I made to give

I thought Kraft papers would make a

 nice combination with the new vintage

butterflies ribbons that you can see all 

about HERE.

So to participate, you link up your card

to our challenge blog HERE and then wait!

Mechanical Gardens

Here's my second card made at Stockholms 

Scrap and Pearl Event taking a workshop 

with Ania Dabrowska (aka Finnabair). I loved 

the class and it has given me a lot of inspiration 

to make cards with lots of layers!

Here's a close up:

Coming up next; a layout from another workshop

at Scrap and Pearl Event. Come back next

week and see what you think!

Mechanical Garden

Ania Dabrowska (aka Finnabair) claimed this

Saturday she's no card maker. But she made

a whole bunch of girls make pretty cards like

this on Stockholms Scrap and Pearls Event!

We had such fun even though we had to run;

we distressed, painted, cut and tried to fit it

all together like her card and this was one of

the two cards in one workshop called

"Mechanical Garden" 

click on the name and you will see her card.

PL 2014 Week 7 and 8

Week seven nothing important happened but I

still tried to document what happened at home

or at work normal days. 

I made these pages for a store called Creativica

and so I primarily used materials I was given and

also like a lot; Bo Bunny (Woodland Winter collection)

and the square alphas from Papir Design. 

Tags above and a star clip below are from TGR, 

a Danish chain store also selling som fun things 

useful for paper crafters.  

Below are mostly cards I made from the Bo 

Bunny papers, chipboards from the same 

collection, a few cards from Becky Higgins 

Seasons, a metal corner from Landstoken

and "today" sticker from Jilibean Soup.

Below is a sticker I got when I had to access

a public building for social services and needed 

to identify myself (as interpreter) so I kept it as

a souvenir for my PL-pages! Some letters are

from The Green Hyena February kit and there's

even a flair from our talented group of Swedish

PL-girls! 

Well I'm constantly learning more and more and

experimenting with all these materials and new

ays of scrapping! Any suggestions?

Happy together

Yesterday I attended a crop at the store 

Scrapdraken, participated in a challenge

making this layout using a sketch and I

actually won the challenge!

The two side pictures are special to me,

because during my years on Dominican 

Republic, pointing these flowers out to

the tourists, I never managed to get any

picture of the because they were growing

so high on the trees and I had just a little

standard camera. But on Tenerife past

December I was lucky to find a tree next to

a place with a wall with some trees in eye

level... Arern't they beautiful??

Materials used: cardstock, Prima pearl swirls,

letters I cut out with the Cuttlebug, a brad, three

daffodils (and below the middle one is a flower

made by crochet). 

Least, but not last: twill gold ribbons from my over all

favorite collection at Crafty Ribbons: Summer Breeze.

Use your brads

Hi; this was the last February post I made for

Creativica. Theme: Something old and 

something new and use your brads.

"Get better!" with two different kinds of brads

above and trying out the Martha Stewart punch

in the middle. Papers used here: Summertime 

from Maja Design. 

Below: "Encouragement" with three stars 

and two kinds of brads again. 

No punch but two different brads and a ribbon

in a matching colour is the last one for today.

This is all for today; now I have to pack bags

for going away to work in the north tomorrow!
