Almost forgot this one...

Good evening friends!
Made this card last week after a friend of mine ordered it :)
Yeah, that's right another BOY confimation card! LOL
Feels like I haven't made anything else in weeks! But I promise I have, but I just can't show everything yet :)
I have used another D'Arcy's Diaries image, called "Skaterdude" and paired it with the lovely Maja design papers

And I love flowers so even if it is a boy card I sometimes have to use it...

Both my image and all the panels are cut out using my spellbinder mega ovals
and I just love the effect it gives

The texts inside comes from Kort og Godt and are perfect for a confimation.

Have a nice evening my friends. I am off to work now, finally the last. Tuesday my MIL is coming from Sweden and I really look forward to it. She is the best and I always enjoy having her over.

Boy card

Thanks to D'Arcy's Diaries I have no more problems making boy cards as there are so many fantastic images to chose from.
I have made a confirmationcard for a boy and I chose the new released "Deep in thought" image and I have tried to make it a little more vintage than I usally do, as I know my friend that ordered it likes it that way.
Lovely image paired with some loooovly papers :)


Haven't used that cheesecloth in ages. I always think it looks so beautiful when other do it, but I find it very hard to do my self!

The back, all panels are stiched and inked.

Love the small sentiments for Confirmation from Kort og Godt and of course the Cheery Lynn swirl is always a hit I think :)

Another Handyman :)

Some months ago I made a Handyman card for one of my brother in laws. (If you want to have a look it is here) A friend of mine saw it and she wanted the image on a card for her husband.
This time I made a tag in a pocket card, so easy and really fun to make!

Image is: TEDDYBO_176 called DIY Bo found here
Coloured with Copic markers
Papers from Crea Diem and Vintage summer collection from Maja design
Twine from WOC, Sprochet gears from TH

 This is the card with the tag out

I love the Maja design papers! I was so lucky to win the whole Vintage summer collection over at the Maja design blog and I just loooove to use them!

Colouring tutorial

Good morning my friends :)
I have made a colouring tutorial for Copic Marker Norge on how I colour my Teddy Bo images to give them some structure in the fur. I would love to hear what you think, so head over to the blog here and have a look :)
This is my image:

I wish you all a wonderful day and hopefully the weather is better where you are, as it's snowing again here!!
Lots and lots of hugs to you

fairytale friday

Thank God it's friday!!
So glad the weekend is here and I really look forward to spend some days with my family. Hopefully the weather will be better than it looks at the moment, but anyhow it is good to have some days off work :)
I have made another shaker card to show you today with a Fairy D image released a few weeks ago. I think this comfused looking cat is just adorable and like all images Gayle draws he is a dream to colour with my Copics.
Gabriella have also made her own shaker card with this image and even tho I am her mother I think she is a little craft star!
 I just loved making this card and my sister Rita did love the Pussytat too, so she grabbed it as soon as the glue was dried and the picture was taken...
The fantastic sentiment comes from the kind and sweet Paulette at Create with TLC

I just love making shaker cards and my little sweetheart did too...she cut out all the 3d cusions into small stripes to put around the edge all by herself and filled it with the pearls and the little flower made of a button and cardcandy is her own design :)

Lots and lots of hugs from Jill
and a shy hug from Gabriella too :)
