Driftwood Boat - DT Scrapki Wyzwaniowo

Hello lovelies! It's been ages again since I've shared anything I've made.. I've been busy climbing mountains the better part of this summer and haven't really spent much time in my craftroom. I don't really feel guilty about it, but here's a little something I made for Scrapki's last challenge.

The challenge that time was "Home Decor" so I thought I'd make a driftwood boat. It was so much fun to make! I regulary go to the shore and collect random tidbits to use in my crafts and I found some pieces of wood and sticks and thought why not make a boat? So I did. 

I played with papers from 7dots studio, flowers and Charms from Prima. I also painted a bit with the Patina Effect paste.  I also used decorations from Maya Road.

The beautiful lace is from Wild Orchid and where perfect on the sails. The button and the canvas banner is from Maya Road. The twine cording is also from Maya Road.

The charms on this little home decor piece is from Prima's collection "St.Tropez". They are beautifully detailed.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! :) 

Steampunkish Card - DT Maya Road

Heellloo!! Finally something is happening on my blog, twice in a week! That's not to shabby. Today I have a Steampunkish card to share with you. I made this card AGES ago for Maya Roads CHA. But I taught today was a good day to share it. I haven't shown it anywhere else before today.

I used papers from Fleur Design on this card, love those papers. It hurt a bit to cut in them. Hahaha.. I used my sewing machine and stitched around the egdes. Added some layers with Maya Road tags and used modeling paste on top.

I made a fun face by using Maya Road glasses and moustache on top of the lightbulb. I also added a button and lightbulb transparency. On top I splashed abit with glimmer glam - stiletto from Tattered Angels. On top of the glasses and moustache I added a bit of Inka Gold - Old Silver.

Grattis! - Birthday Card - Ett Trykk/Scrapberry's

Heellloo hello! Sorry to say I'm not the best blogger these days, I'm trying to better myself - been out exercising alot lately and that sorry to say is stealing a bit from my Scrappy time. Anyways as some of you know I've been a contributor to a Norwegian scrapbook magazine called "Ett Trykk" and I haven't really shared anything I've made for them yet. So I thought this was a good day to share.

So I've played around a bit with Scrapberry's "Young and Free" collection. Not really my colors.. but it's fun to play around with pink sometimes.

I played around with layers witch I like very much. It gives dimension and interest to the card. The girl is also fuzzy cut out from the collection. I stamped with from a Norwegian company called "Kort & Godt". Flowers are from Prima.

Allright! Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Have a fantastic day! :) 

Hello Gorgeous - Layout - Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo

Hello my sweet neglected followers! This past few months have been soo crazy busy. I've been the leader of this huge festival in my community with loads of people selling their homemade items, and all sorts of other things. It's been a crazy time but hopefully I'm back to my old self with scrapbooking, teaching classes and taking photos! :) 

So for my first share of many (hopefully) is my DT layout for Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo's newest challenge "Beauty". It's not to late to join in and I hope you do! :) 

Like I said; this month is all about "Beauty" and I found this fun Snapchat photo of me and Olivia. Heather Thompson's sweet sweet daughter from when they visited me here in Norway this summer. She is such a dollface! :)

It's been a long time since I've made scrapbook layouts. I've mostly made cards and other of the page projects. So I wanted to keep this layout clean and fun. I've used white cardstock for my base and distress inks from Tim Holtz for my blue background with some yellow splashes with Dylusions ink. I stamped with a star background stamp from Carabelle. and used mostly Prima products as embellishments. 

The "Hello Gorgeous" sticker is from Simple Stories, and most of the flowers are from Prima and Wild Orchids, added some bits of lace and ribbon and - Voila! A little layout was born!

If you'd like to join Scrapki's challenge this month, please head on over to the Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo blog for details and a little look at this months prizes sponsored by 7dots Studio and UmWow Studio.

Thank you so much for stopping by my neglected blog today! I truly appricate it! :) HUGS!

You and Me - Bingo! Layout - DT Scrapberry's

Hello Everyone! It's tutorail day over at the Scrapberry's international blog and I'm on the video team and of course I have a video for you today! In my last video post for Scrapberry's I played around with the Stain's Ink pads (you can find my post here) and I wanted to play some more with them, so I made a layout and a watercolor background playing with the Stain's Inks.

The pads has a beautiful vibrant color. The stickers on the pads "lies" a bit so I do recommend trying them out on a scrap piece of paper before applying to the project.

I have to say I really love the effect the pads had on my page, the flowed just as I wanted and made this flowy effect. I stamed a bit and splashed aswell to finish the background work. The papers added are from Scrapberry's "You and Me" collection on I also stamped with a prima flower stamp. Would you like to see how I made this layout please check out the video below.

I had so much fun making this page adding all the little details.. 

I added these beautiful metal trinkes from Scrapberry's - the clock face and the together metal embellishement witch was kinda perfect for my page. 

The triangles are chipboards from Creative Embellishements. Those I really love. The Flair button are from Scrapberry's "Happily ever after" Collecction and was just the perfect color and sentiment. 

I'll be joining these challenges with my layout: 

• Creative Embellishements - Spring Challenge 
• Butterfly Reflections - April Moodboard
• Hobbygarasjen - Anything goes challenge
• Mixed Media World - Anything goes with optinal twist - Watercolors

Vintage Cards - DT Wild Orchid Crafts

Hello lovelies, it's my turn over at the Wild Orchid blog and I have two vintage cards to share with you.

The first card has more details and the other, I used loads of the Open Roses, Wild Roses and the Pretty Flori flowers. The papers are from Scrapberry's.

The beautiful resin bird is from Prima and was a perfect sentiment to my card. This card is actually a card without media. Shocking isn't it? hahaha :)

I used an old bookpage from a book that's from 1878.. I know.. really old, but this book is in such bad shape, so I think it's better to give it a new use in my scrapbooking.. Ok.. Over to my second card..

This card is a smaller card using the same type of paper as the first one, from Scrapberry's. I embellished with Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and some rhinestones.

I'm joining in these challenges with first my card:

Hello lovelies! I hope everyone is good, it's soon Easter holiday's here in Norway and I hope that you are going to enjoy yourself alot this Easter. Of course I have a little share today. I made an Altered Tin and Spool stand I'm really excited about.

I got my mixed media on while making this little stand. I added so many Wild Orchid Flowers on this and loads of mixed media products like Crackle paste, sprays and Finnabairs waxes.

I put this together by using a wooden spool and a small fish tin on top of it and covered it with crackle paint, mists and art Alchemy Waxes. I decorated it with loads of Wild Orchid flowers, Prima resin decor and  little 7dots Studio Sticker. Do you recongnize the little girl? Well.. It's me! I started dancing ballroom dancing when I was about 4 years old.. my carrier ended in the age of 9 I think.. don't really know why.. :) I wish I still danced though.. I really liked it I remember.

l also added loads of micro beads and glitter to my project, long with strings and flowers.

Spring Basket - DT Scrapberry's & Wild Orchid Crafts

Hello Everyone! Today I have a little altered thing to show you. I'm combined two of my designteams bringing in the gorgeous flowers from Wild Orchid and the stunning papers from Scrapberry's into the mix. I made a little Spring/Easter Basket I would love to show you.

I have to say I really love the daffodil flowers from Wild Ochid Crafts. They are so gorgeous and perfect for any spring projects.

I made the basket out of an empty nut container. I painted it first with gesso and crackle paint. I glued papers from the Juliet Collection from Scrapberry's and added that to the box.

I made a wreath out of branches to place on top of my basket and decorated with a lot of flowers from Wild Orchid and fuzzy cut some butterflies out of the Juliet Collection from Scrapberry's.

The little bird is an embellishement from Scrapberry's and it was perfect from my little basket. The pinecones are real pinecones we find outside in some of my trees.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today and if you want to see more projects with Wild Orchid Crafts products or Scrapberry's products, please visit their blogs. :)
