more Christmas cards

I´ve made more christmas cards and I hope to sell some of them at my work. They usually go like hot cakes ( it is a Danish way of talking and I do not know if it's called so in English)

Otherwise, I use them yourself. There is nothing as cozy as a homemade Christmas card ;O)

Jeg har lavet flere julekort ,som jeg håber at sælge på mit arbejde. De plejer at gå som varmt brød, ellers så bruger jeg dem selv .Der er intet så hyggeligt som et hjemmelavet julekort :O)

 

I have chosen to stop as a designer at ARTsy team onto StampARTic because I do not feel I have the necessary time and our hobby should not be a chore, but would be fun. These three cards is my last for them. They are made with distress ink and chlorine, a fun technique that smells a lot; O)

Jeg har valgt at stoppe som designer på ARTsy teamet over på StampARtic, da jeg ikke føler jeg har den nødvendige tid og vores hobby skal ikke blive en sur pligt, men gerne være sjovt. Disse tre kort er derfor mine sidste for dem. De er lavet med distress ink og klorin, en sjov teknik, som lugter en del ;O)

Christmas cards

I've worked a lot in the bygone weeks, so I have not been creative, but today I took revenge. There were Christmas cards cybercrop over at Scrapsisters and here I got Christmas cards to some of the challenges. Task 5 was prompt scrap, 3 cards in an hour, I saw the task a little late and managed to make these 3 cards in 22 minutes.

Jeg har arbejdet rigtig meget i den forgangende uge, så jeg har ikke været kreativ, men i dag tog jeg hævn. Der var julekort cybercrop over hos Scrapsisters og her fik jeg lavet julekort til nogen af udfordringerne.  Opgave 5 var hurtig scrap, 3 kort på en time, jeg så opgaven lidt sent og nåede at lave disse 3 kort på 22 minutter.

 This card is for the challenge of an alternative opening

Dette kort er til udfordringen med alternativ åbning

This cards was made for the Christmas sketch challenge

kort lavet til juleskitse udfordringen

also made a card for the classic Christmas explored Driggs, but the light is so bad so I must show a second day.

Jeg fik også lavet et kort til den klassiske juleudfordrig, men lyset er så dårligt så det må jeg vise en anden dag.

Now I will run again, pork roast awaits. Thanks for stopping by.

Nu vil jeg løbe igen , flæskestegen venter. Tak fordi du kiggede forbi

A quick post

It's not because I didn`t scrapped last week, but it's all DT tasks that I can not show on blogs yet.

Det er ikke fordi jeg ikke har scrappet i sidste uge, men det er alt sammen DT opgaver,som jeg ikke kan vise på blogge endnu.

However, I can show these two Christmas cards that I've made to an article over on StampARTic about how to use micra powder like Perfect pearls etc.

Jeg kan dog vise de her to julekort, som jeg har lavet til en artikel over på StampARTic om at bruge micra powder som perfect pearls m.m

  I have also made this card for colleague who has silver anniversary tomorrow.

Så har jeg lavet det her kort til kollega, som har sølvbryllup i morgen

Thnaks for stopping by and I hope you have a great week.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi og hav en god uge.

Creativity flowing

Right now running a competition "scrapfestival" exercised entire month of October over at Scrapsisters. I must say that this festival has really been sparked  my creativity , because  I have made 5 layouts since  Monday.

Lige nu kører der en konkurrence "scrapfestival", som vare hele oktober måned over hos Scrapsisters. Jeg må sige at denne festival virkelig har fået sat gang i min kreativitet, da jeg har fået lavet hele 5 layouts i mandags.

Friday I went over to my parents in Sweden, it was long time since I've visited them last. I had taken my new stamps from the Orion design and my new punch with, so my mother could borrow them. Saturday we took a trip out to Scraproom where I found some beautiful christmas paper from Pion design. When we got home, I made stamps for my mom and the paper just called on me, so in no time I had been made 4 Christmas cards, where  two of them were for the festival.

 I fredags tog jeg over til mine forældre i Sverige, da det var længe siden jeg har besøgt dem. jeg havde taget mine nye stempler fra Orion design og min nye punch med, så min mor kunne låne dem. Lørdag tog vi en smut ud til Scraproom, hvor jeg fandt det skønneste papir fra Pion design.  Da vi kom hjem, lavede jeg stempelaftryk til  min mor og papiret kaldte bare på mig, så i løbet af ingen tid havde jeg fået lavet 4 julekort, hvorad to af dem var til festivalen.

Finally, I just show my DT contribution to StampARTsy Halloween article, which can be read here

Til sidst vil jeg lige vise mine DT bidrag til StampARTsy Halloween artiklen, som kan læses her

Thanks for stopping by.

christmas cards

I'm still not quite on top, coughing and snotty, but it is moving forward. Today, it has been on pure relaxation and comfort in my scraproom. A colleague is going to have a booth at a flea market next weekned and have asked me if she should sell some of my cards, so right now I´m making more cards than layouts.

Jeg er stadigvæk ikke helt på toppen, hoster og snotter en del, men det går fremad. I dag har den stået på ren afslapning og hygge i scrapværelset. En kollega skal have en stand på et kræmmermarked i næsten weekned og har spurgt mig ,om hun ikke skal sælge nogle af mine kort, så lige nu står den mere på kort end scrap.

Here are three cards that I have made today
Her er tre kort, som jeg har fået lavet i dag
This is my contribution to the challenge, which is now running at over 1-2-3-scrap, where you must use flowers, lace, bling and glimmermist.
Det her er mit bud på udfordringen ,som lige nu kører over på 1-2-3-scrap, hvor man skal bruge blomster, blonde, bling og glimmermist.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a fantastic weekend.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi og jeg håber du får en fantastisk weekend.

I love challenge

If you're like me, loves challenges, so I have here a few you should check out.
Hvis du som mig elsker udfordringer, så har jeg her et par stykke du bør tjekke ud.

The first is over at 1-2-3-scrap, where you'll create a layout where you use numbers from different fonts. A good way to clean up all our incubation Thicker ;O)
Den første er ovre på 1-2-3-scrap, hvor du skal lave et layout, hvor du bruger tal fra forskellige fonte. En god måde at få ryddet op i alle vores udrugte Thickers ;O)

Here is my suggestion.
Her er mit forslag.
Are you more for cards, perhaps this one over at Kort o mania is more you. Here you'll create a map where you are at least 1 stamp.
Er du mere til kort, så er den over på Kort o mania måske mere dig. her skal du lave et kort , hvor du bruger mindst 1 stempel.

Here is my suggestion.
Her er mit forslag.

I was at my sister's wedding yesterday, so today I have been tired, but I have managed to make a Christmas card.

Jeg var til min søsters bryllup i går, så idag har jeg været noget træt, men det er da blevet til et enkelt julekort.

Thanks for stopping by.

a fantastic weekend

I've had a fantastic weekend in Jutland. Friday evening I took the train to Holstebro, where Anette pick me up. We drove home to her place, where we got some food. and then we went to bed. Saturday morning we drove to late summer crop of Boarding. A whole wonderful day with wonderful goodie bags, nice people, delicious food and not least the ability to shop.

Jeg har haft en fantastisk weekend i Jylland. Fredag aften tog jeg toget til Holstebro, hvor Anette hentede mig. Vi kørte hjem til hende, hvor der ventede lidt mad. der næst var det på hovedet i seng.Lørdag morgen kørte vi til sen sommer crop i Bording. En hel fantastisk dag med dejlig goodi bags, søde mennesker , lækker mad og ikke mindst muligheden for at shoppe.

I did actually have time to scrap. My layout I had made from home to sketch competition.

Jeg fik faktisk også scrappet lidt. Mit layout jeg havde lavet hjemmefra til skitsekonkurrencen

Today I had a free and unfortunately I woke up with a very raised knee, which is very painful.
Tomorrow I have a trip to the doctor.

I dag har jeg haft fri og desværre vågnede jeg op med et meget hævet knæ, som gør vanvittig ondt. Så i morgen må jeg nok en tur til lægen...øv

My contribution to the challenge of 50 on the Norwegian blog Sukkersott. I think this one different map size, which is from Hero Arts fitted perfectly to the sketch.

Mit bidrag til udfordring 50 over på den norske blog Sukkersott. Jeg synes denne her anderledes kort størrelse,som er fra Hero Arts passede perfekt til skitsenI've toyed with my new Christmas stamps from Tim Holtz.

Happy birthday to me

Today, I stood up to a nice breakfast with eggs and bacon and bread from the baker. My sweet husband and daughter had made it, because it's my birthday today. On the table there was asweet 3D card that mydaughter had done in total secrecy.

I dag stod jeg op til et dejligt morgenbord med æg og bacon og morgenbrød fra bageren. Det havde min søde mand og datter lavet, da det er min fødselsdag i dag. På bordet stod også dette søde 3D kort ,som min Signe havde lavet i alt hemmelighed.
This week over at Two Peas in a Bucke the Thinking Inking class is focuses on Dimensional Pearls, Liquid Pearls and Stickles from Ranger. Since I don`t own Dimensional Pearls and it can not be obtain in Danish stores, it is limited how much I have participated. The last video but referred to using distress stickles on fabric and I used this technique on my first Christmas card this year.

Denne uges fokus i Thinking Inking class over på Two Peas in a Bucket er Dimensional Pearls, Liquid Pearls og Stickles fra Ranger.
Da jeg ikke ejer noget Dimensional pearls og det ikke kan opdrives i danske butikker er det begrænset, hvor meget jeg har kunne deltage. Den sidste video omhandlede dog at bruge distress stickles på stof og denne teknik brugte jeg på årets første julekort.

I used Distress stickles on the fabric, but it is rather difficult to see in the picture. In addition, I have used distress embossing powder around the edges and a text stamp from Hero Arts

Jeg har brugt Distress stickles på stoffet, men det er lidt svært at se på billedet. derudover har jeg brugt distress embossing pulver rundt i kanten og et tekst stempel fra Hero Arts

I will run again, I will start making birthday pie. Thanks for stopping by.

Jeg løber igen ,jeg skal igang med at lave lagkage. Tak fordi du kiggede forbi.

Christmas card and more

What a week. I've been sick most of the week, went first to work Friday, but even there, I was not really fresh, so I unfortunately had to drop to go to Christmas Lunch in Dreampapers. I`m sure the girls still had a wonderful evening.

Sikken en uge. Jeg har været syg det meste af ugen, gik først på arbejde fredag, men selv der var jeg ikke rigtig frisk,så jeg måtte desværre droppe at tage til julefrokost i Dreampapers. Jeg tror nu pigerne alligevel havde en dejlig aften.

I have made my three finals contribution to the scrapbook queen competition over at Multiscrap but I can not show yet. I can show this layout, which is designed to outline the competition, which now runs over at http://1-2-3-scrap.blogspot.com/ you can still join.
It has some very old pictures from 1999 taken by the staff of my daughter's former kindergarten. When she went out we got a folder with pictures and drawings she had made in her time in the kindergarten. The directory is only worth gold for a mother as scrap. the papers, snow flake buttons and the ribbon is from my Advent calendar, so therefore I have finished Annette first challenge of creating a layout with a minimum of stuff from 3 packages.

Jeg har fået scrappet mine tre finalebidrag til scrapbook queen konkurrencen hos Multiscrap men dem kan jeg ikke vise endnu. Jeg kan vise det her layout, som er lavet til skitsekonkurrencen, som lige nu kører over på http://1-2-3-scrap.blogspot.com/ du kan stadigvæk nå at være med.
Det er nogle meget gamle billeder fra 1999 taget af personalet i min datters daværende børnehave. Da hun gik ud fik vi en mappe med billeder og tegninger, hun havde lavet i sin børnehavetid. Den mappe er bare guld værdfor en mor som scrapper. papiret, snefnugne og båndet er fra min julekalender,så dermed har jeg også løs Annettes første udfordring om at lave et layout med mindst ting fra 3 pakker
Here is a picture of gifts from my Advent calendar from Dec. 8 to Dec. 13

Her er et billeder af gaverne fra min julekalender fra 8 december til 13 december.

I have sold all my Christmas cards, so I had started to make some, I have to send.
The blue is also my solution to the second challenge in my Advent calendar from Anette which was to create a card with at least 4 of things from the package 8 to 13. The ribbon, needle, snow flake and the scalloped circle are from the calendar.

Jeg har jo solgt alle mine julekort, så jeg måtte i gang med at lave nogen,jeg selv skal sende.
Det blå er samtidig min løsning på den anden udfordring i min julekalender fra Anette som lød på at lave et kort med mindst 4 af tingene fra pakke nr. 8 til 13. Båndet, nålen, sne fnug og den scalloped cirkel er fra kalenderen.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a really cozy third Sunday in Advent.

Tak fordi du kiggede forbi og rigtig hyggelig trejde søndag i advent

christmas cards and more

I had a fantastic trip last weekend. We lived in a huge and beautiful house, just 100 meters from the sea. The room we sat and scrapped in had large windows with views to the water. We should not even cook, everything was served and are certainly not lacking anything.
I was not as productive as I use to be when I´m at crops, but i had a great time and got a lot of inspiration. I was especially inspired by the three talented ladies Gurli, Anja and Pia. I got to borrow Anja awesome Christmas stamps from Tim Holtz and I signed some sketches of Gurlis cards = card sketches an entirely new concept in my world ;O)

Jeg havde en fantastisk tur sidste weekend. Vi boede i et kæmpe stort og flot hus, kun 100 meter fra havet. Rummet vi sad og scrappede i havde store pamorama vinduer med udsigt til vandet. Vi skulle ikke selv lave mad, alt blev serveret og der manglede bestemt ikke noget.
Jeg var ikke så produktiv, som jeg plejer at være til crops, men jeg hyggede mig og fik en masse inspiration. Jeg blev især inspireret af de tre dygtige kortdamer Gurli, Anja og Pia. Jeg fik love at låne Anjas fede jule stempler fra Tim holtz og jeg tegnede nogle skitser af Gurlis kort = kortskitser et helt nyt begreb i min verden ;O)

In this one week, I've made a lot of Christmas cards, where I among other things used Gurlis sketches. I took 18 cards with me at work and in two days, I had sold 15 cards. I had not expect to sell so many. Here are som of the cards.

I denne her uge har jeg lavet en masse jule kort, hvor jeg blandt andet brugte Gurlis skitser. Jeg tog 18 kort med på arbejdet og i løbet af to dage fik jeg solgt 15 kort. Det havde jeg godt nok ikke regnet med. Her er nogen af kortne.

Here are some of the layouts I had made over the weekend. I have no pictures of them all yet, because we do not have much daylight in Denmark right now. The first is made to Anne Bodil sketch challenge on the Norwegian blog http://scrappehuset.blogspot.com/

Her er nogle af de layouts jeg fik lavet i weekenden. Jeg har ikke billeder af dem alle endnu, da vi jo ikke har så meget dagslys i Danmark lige nu.Det første er lavet til Anne Bodils skitse udfordring over på den norske blog http://scrappehuset.blogspot.com/

For this layout, I've used materials from my monthly package from Scarlet lime, I just love the packages from there.

Til dette layout har jeg brugt materialer fra min måneds pakke fra Scarlet lime, jeg elsker bare pakkerne derfra.

Finally, I can show my final contribution to the Runway competition. The challange was to make a layout where the background should be anything else than cardstock and pattern papers. we had to use a bit from panty hose ( the brown flowers) bubble plast, a least 100 words of handwriten journaling, coffe techinque and the title "me in a nutshell". I have use a old pillow case for the background.

Til sidst kan jeg vise mit finalebidrag til Runway konkurrencen. Opgaven lød på at lave et layout, hvor baggrunden ikke måtte være karton eller mønsterpapir, der skulle bruges en bid af et par strømpebukser, bobbelplastik, kaffeteknik og så skulle der være mindst 100 ords håndskrevet tekst på. Titlen skulle være "mig i en nøddeskal"

jeg valgte af sprætte et gammelt pudebetræk op og bruge det som baggrund.

I did not win the finals, but I think it is a triumph in itself, having come so far. Well now, I should run I have to make some Christmas decorations. Thanks for stopping by.

Jeg vandt ikke finalen, men jeg synes det er en sejrer i sig selv, at have været kommet så langt.
Nå nu vil jeg løbe skal have lavet nogle juledekorationer. tak fordi du kiggede forbi.
