Teddy Bo tuesday in royal colours!

Good morning my sweet friends :)
Hope you all are fine and that the sun is shining wherever you are

At Teddy Bo we are having a new challenge today and my team, team A, are in charge for that.
The theme for the next two weeks is

Queen’s Diamond Jubilee –
Red, white and blue and lots of bling

I haven't made a really royal card I am afraid, because when I saw this cute Teddy Bea, I just had to use her! But I did use red, white and blue  and some bling:)

Here is my card:
My lovely Bea out for a walk :)
I have made a pocket tag card again and think it turned out quite ok :)
The lovely papers from Maja design really makes cardmaking so easy!

Here is the tag taken out

The back of the card. The edge punch is from Ek success.

Image is TEDDYBEA_206 found here

Hope you all find some crafting time even tho the weather outside is beautiful. I use every free minute outside, and the evening inside in my craftroom :)

Happy crafting gorgeous friends
Back later with my card for CMN

Big hugs

Fairytale friday

Another weekend is about to start and I have a new Teddy Bo card to share with you.
I have made this card for my MIL since Andre asked me to make a card for her for mothersday.
The sun is shining here today, so just a quick post as I am heading to bed after my night shift. Can't sleep all day when the weather is this beautiful :)

I have made a window on the front of the card for the lovely Teddy Bo to look through. Loved the effect with the spellbinder frame around the edge.
This is what it looks like from inside. The clouds are made with my Copic markers, still practising and trying out to find the best colours for the clouds. This has a lot of the T markers and I think it maybe was a little too dark, but even tho I like the clouds this dotty way :)

Image is: TEDDYBO_182
Coloured with Copics
Papers from Maja design
Wonderful swirl from MB  (thanks Maritha!!)
Flowers from WOC
Mini postage stamps from Whimsy stamps

Thanks for visiting me today and don't forget the challenge and DT call over at Teddy Bo. I promise this is the most kind and sweetest DT in blogland, so come on and get your creations in!
Read about it here.

Enjoy your weekend friends
Big hugs

My weddingbook :)

Good morning crafting friends :)
I have a wedding book I would like to share with you today.
 We have a challenge at Copic Marker Norge going right now, where we would love you to make someting for a wedding.

I mensioned the other day that my sister is getting married in july and I think this is my giftbox for her and her husband. Inside I will put a note about what the gift is because the wedding is in Poland and I just don't want to carry too much...

Hope you like it!
 Lovely couple from Tiddly Ink, coloured with Copic
My newest Memory box die wich I just loooove :)
Beautiful wedding rings bought at Bikuben
 I have made a bookcard using my own tutorial that I made for Teddy Bo, just changed the size a bit. If you want to try, you find the tut here
The inside with two sentiments from Kort og Godt, one is a recipe of love.

Bottle from TH filled with glasspearls and a note saying "forever"
Flowers and leafs from WOC

The back of the book is made by a fantastic new (to me) product from TH, Kraft Glassine and I have embossed with a TH embossing folder and covered it with Glossy accent to make it look shiny and fantastic! Thanks Trine for the fantastic idea :)
I really think I succeded with that leather feeling.
I have also mashine stiched all my panels

My lovely Tiddly Ink couple is coloured in these Copic colours:
Skin: E11, 21,00 and E93 for cheeks
Hair: W5,3,1,0
Dress her: E81, W0 and blender 0
Suit him: E44, 43, 42, 41

Guestdesigner Copic Marker Europe

Good morning everybody
Today I am so lucky to be guestdesigning at Copic Marker Europe blog.
I feel so honoured to be asked, but must admit I was a little bit nervous when I started to make my card!
Photobucket

I have made a birthday card to show you. I made it for one of my best blog friends for her birthday earlier this month and I hope she likes it, and of course you too :)
I chose a wonderful digi image called "Nimbus the angel" for my card from the fantastic artist Mayzy. You find her Etsy shop here

The wonderful image is coloured in theese Copic colours:
Hair: E59, E39, YR 24, Y15, E50
Skin: E11, E21, E51-50, E93
Dress: R02, R01, R00
Wings: R02,01,00 and BG13,11,10
Shoes and brown details: E39,35, 31
Her eyes and lips has got a layer of Glossy Accent and on her wings I have
used At You Spica pen, Clear.

I made a tag in a pocket card with some lovely papers from Anna Griffin and the pink on the tag is from a Pion sheet.
All my flowers are WOC and Kort og Godt and the lovely hat pin is a treasured gift from a friend of mine, Susan Killam. She makes the most wonderful hatpins ever, just look here in her shop.

Like I often do, I used the amazing beautiful Fanciful Flourish from Cheery Lynn design on my card, and here I have cut it in two, to have on both sides of the image

This is how my card looks like when the tag is out.
the tag has this amazing poem from Kort og Godt and beside the image I have used a digi sentiment from Create with TLC

I hope you like my card
Thank you Copic Marker Europe for having me as your guestdesigner :)

Have a wonderful day everybody and take care
Hugs, Jill
