Once upon a time at the Midweek Magnolias

Good morning friends and followers,

It's wednesday and time for a new challenge over at the Midweek Magnolias.
This time it's all about the fairytales for us,
we want you to use your imagination and your Magnolias 
to create something with the theme

Once upon a time...

Here's my inspiration for you:

The papers are by Prima, and the dies are by Spellbinders. I used a Martha Stewart punch along the edges, and the sentiments are by Norsk Stempelblad AS and are all about birthdays. The flowers are by WOC and Kort og Godt.  I distressed the edges with walnut stain distress ink. The blue pearls are from my stash.

I colored the image, Pirate Tilda, with distress ink markers. I used tattered rose and vintage photo for the skin, tattered rose and aged mahogany for the cheeks. The dress, flag and scarf are colored with blue jeans and antique linen. I used black sooth and walnut stain for the shadows and boots. 


Please stop by the Midweek Magnolias to see the gorgeous creations of my teamies and join in for a chance to win an exciting surprise gift from Magnolia in Sweden.

DT Unik Hobby


Good Morning peeps.

Her er mitt aller første DT kort for Unik Hobby.
Here's my first DT card for Unik Hobby. 

Jeg er stor fan av Maja Design, og disse arkene fra Vintage Spring Basic kolleksjonen er intet unntak. 6x6 blokken er perfekt størrelse til kort. Rundt motivet har jeg brukt Ovals Floral fra Spellbinder. Hengeren med skiltet på er Love Hanger fra Tim Holtz. På skiltet og inni kortet er det tekststempler fra Norsk Stempelblad AS. I tillegg har jeg brukt Roser i forskjellige størrelser og Hvite halvperler fra Papirdesign.




Image: Rain Or Shine - My Besties
 Motivet er fargelagt med Copic Sketch Markers. Fargene jeg har brukt er:
The image is colored with Copic Sketch Markers. Colors used: 
Hud/Skin: E13-11-0-000, E95 til kinn.
Hår/Hair: E47-44-43-42-41, W7
Kjole/dress: E77-74-71-70, W7
Forkle og paraply/ apron and umrella: V99-000, RV95-93-91
Blonder/Lace: 3-1-00
Skygge/Shadow:W5-3-1-00

Jeg har brukt Liqiud pearls, opal white på blondekanten og som struktur rundt motivet (prikkene) og Stickles glitter glue i sølv på blomstene på hårbåndet.

Slik ser kortet ut inni, de vakre arkene er dekorasjon i seg selv.
Here's the inside of the card.

Stemplene i hjørnene er fra Stempelgledes Grunge Flourish Hearts platen.

Ønsker deg en kreativ dag!

Paperbag- one of two paperflower tutorials

Good evening friends and followers,

I wanted to share anther tutorial with you. In the june edition of Ett Trykk Magazine we made an article with lots of DIY's on making paper flowers, I wanted to share one of them with you. I made this paper bag with two different kinds of home made flowers. I'll be back with the tutorial on the other one later (the big one). 

(Tutroialen er både på norsk og engelsk-se under)

To make this paperbag I used papers from Maja Design Vintage Spring Basic collection. I used 
a Martha Stewart punch for some of the edges, roses by WOC, pearls by Papirdesign, sentment stamp by Stempelglede, Cheryl Lynn DesingBranch dies, Butterfly from I am Roses, 
Nesting doily cirkle die by Quick Kutz/Lifestyle crafts. Lace and ribbon from my stahs. 
Paperflowers are home made.Here's a tutorial for the three little roses on my decorated paper bag. 


1. You need a few sheets of sheet music. Make sure the paper is not too thin or fragile to avoid that it dissolves when it's folded. You will alls need a circle- or oval die. I used part of an old Quick Kutz baby's rattle- die, but any die or punch is good as long as it's round'ish. You will need some pearls or glitter for the centers.  Needless to say my scissors and a glue gun or quick-drying glue is obligatory, so is walnut stain distress inks for the edges;) 

1. Du trenger et gammelt notehefte eller lignende med litt stivt papir. Pass på at papiret ikke er så tynt eller skjørt at det går i oppløsning når det brettes.  En sirkel/oval die- jeg har brukt en del av en eldre Quick Kutz babyrangle die- men du kan bruke hvilken die eller punch du ønsker. Dersom du bruker die må du ha et kutteverktøy- jeg har hentet frem den gamle Quick kutz tanga. Jeg har også brukt  distress ink til å sverte kantene med og perler eller glitter til å pynte i midten.Du trenger også saks og limpistol eller hurtigtørkende lim.



2. Start by punching or die cutting the shapes.
2. Stans ut så mange sirkler/ovaler som du vil ha lag på blomsten.



I made 7 diecuts (layers) for each flower, but you kan make them as big or small as you like. 
Distress the edges if you want (both front and back).
3. Jeg har brukt 7 lag. Distress kantene på begge sider av diecut'en.



4 Use your scissors to cut to approx. the center of the circle / oval.
4. Klipp til ca. midten av sirkelen/ovalen.



5. Use your gluegun to make a small drop of glue on one side of the cut.
5. Påfør lim.



6. Glue each circle / oval together like this. This constitutes flower petals.
6. Lim hver sirkel/oval sammen slik. Dette utgjør blomstebladene.



7. Glue the layers on top of each other, still using the glue gun.
7. Lim sammen lag på lag.



8. Attach a pearl or stickles in the center of the flower.
8.Her er den ferdige blomsten. Sett en perle eller lim på glitter i midten. 


9. Attach to project.
9. Bruk på prosjektet ditt.

Here are the finished flowers on my paper bag, hope you like my project!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave me comments- they mean so much to me! Thank you!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Hei kreative venner.

Vel, ikke noe blogginnlegg uten kort her i gården, så
her er et kort jeg laget til juni utgaven av Ett Trykk
Det passer godt nå som regnet plasker ned utenfor vinduene.
Kortet er laget etter en skisse laget av den dyktige dama: Anita Thorsen.

This is a card I made for Ett Trykk Magazine in june:


Arkene er fra Maja Designs Skal vi ta en fika kolleksjon, 
Stemplet er 
Tilda in Summer Rain fra Magnolia og er fargelagt med Copics. Tekststemplet er fra Norsk Stempelblad AS. Ellers har jeg brukt 
Scalloped oval die fra Spellbinder, papirsommerfugl fra Iamroses, blonder fra Kort og godt og den lille hjørnediesen er fra La La land craft. Blomstene er fra WOC. Jeg har også brukt osteklut og en liten sommerfuglpunch fra skuffen min. 
Sommerfuglene er malt med crackle paint og kantene er svertet med distress ink.

The papers are from the Maja Design shall we have coffee collection, and I used a Spellbinder die, a La La Land corner die, flowers are by WOC, and the lace is by Kort og Godt. The butterfly is from iamroses, and i used some cheescloth and a småll butterflypunch from my stash. 
The image is Tilda in summer rain, I colored her with my copics.

Slik ser det ut inni kortet- enkelt og greit. Dette tekstempelet er også fra Norsk Stempelblad.
