GDT 2 Anything Goes Challenge

Hi there!



It's time for a new challenge at Anything Goes Challenge and this fortnight you are going to make something that inspire you from TV.

I got my inspiration from a Swedish program called "Packad och klar" (Packed and ready) And I think that I hit the title right on the spot ;o)

I would love to take a trip around the world, it would be so great. There are so many places I want to see and experience. Well, maybe not all at the same time but one at a time.



Sitting Tilda is from the Travel Collection 2010, like the suitcases. I have used Distressink for my colouring. Found some old poststamps at home that came to use on this project.

The shape of the card I have made with a Spellbinder die.

Prima flowers, brads and stickles are also some of the things I have decorated my card with.

I think you should take a look at this store: Craft Den. I'm sure you will find some lovely things there to purchase.

I would like to thank everyone of you that visit and comment on my blog.

It really makes my day!

Okey, back to work ;o)

Have a lovely "craftingweek"!

Lots of Hugs!

More happy news!

Take a look at this badge!

Yay, I'm the guest designer at the "Anything Goes Challenge" this month! *happy happy happy* I'm so proud and honored to be chosen.

This time the Challenge 47 is all about Birthday/Celebration and here's my card.

I made my very first shakercard!

The leaves are from a Martha Stewart punch and the frame is a Spellbinder dies.

Basic Grey has a lovely paper collection called Cappella which I have used on this card.

I made the "shaker" with smal glass beads.

I painted Magnolia Tilda with Distress ink and behind Tilda I masked some notes.

The balloon is decorated with Stickles.

Here's some lovely flowers...

... and ribbons with a brad.

Some of the material I have used you can find here:

So pop over and see what you can find.

I hope you enjoyed what you saw and you are more than welcome to visit me again :D

Hugs Annette

Home again...

Another mini vacation is over but I still have a week left to enjoy.

I always have big plans to craft on my vacation but somewhere along the way time just flies by. I wonder why... could it be I have to many plans and so many things I'd like to do. And that include sitting in the sun and do nothing..hi hi.

Well, I have actually been crafting but I can't show it to you yet. If you are curious you must be patient, and I hope you are ;o)

But today I will show you a card with Tilda with Hawaii flower. She is one of my favorites from Butterfly Dreams Collection. I have discovered that "the Tildas" I fall for the most are those with long wavy hair.

I've used a few butterflies, and to you who have followed me for a while, know that I just love to use them on my cards.

The words on the card is in Swedish and means something like, " The butterfly of happiness sits down on those who have time to wait". A thoughtful proverbs, isn't it.

Tilda is encircled by pearls, and coloured with destressink. It doesn't show as good but I have put a lot of Stickles "Star Dust" on Tildas butterflies and on the flower in her hair. Even around the Spellbinderframe.

And of course I had to put some flowers on the card ;o)

And with this card I would like to entering following challenges:

Magnolia Down Under, #107 BINGO Flowers, Pearls & Lace

Sketch Saturday, #166

Anything goes, #46 Bunch of Flowers

Thanks for all the sweet comments you leave me! It's a joy to read them <3

I hope the sun will shine on you!

Challenge with Edwin

I'm so enjoing my vacation!
Today me sweet friend, Lousie, came to visit me. And guess what we did... that's right, we made some crafting...lol. As always we had a great day!
For once, I'm way ahead with a project. My children's cousin is turning 10 i November and I'm already finished with his card. And I don't have to worry that he's going to take a peek, because he's not a follower of my blog ;o)
The card reveals that he plays football, doesn't it. This is the new Edwin from Magnolias latest collection, colored with distress ink.
I don't know what it is but I just love stars on boyish cards.

I'm entering this card in to the following challenges:

7 Kids College Fund, #25 Red, White & Blue

Magnolia-licious Color Challenge, #9 Red, White & Blue

Sketch Saturday, #163

Sir Stampalot, # July Anything goes

That's all for today!

Hope to see you soon!

Hugs!

I have been quite busy so I havn't been able to post for a while.
And today I'll just post a quick one. Because me and my sweet friend, Lousie are going to the Magnolia Store in Borås, yay! I'm so excited! And I know for a fact that there's going to be a big hole in my purse when we leave the store :P But I will bee sooo happy!
So honor of the day I'll show you a Magnolia card.

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Scrappekammeret #33 Summer

Have a great day! I know I will ;o)

Time for a little Tilda

Hi everyone!
It's been a while since a posted a Tilda card. So let's do ;o)
This one a made for my colleague´s daugther.
Something I have become a big fan of is the crakle paint on chipboards. I think is so much fun and it's of course nice too ;o)
Almost everything on this card is from Magnolias range; Tilda, the horse, the papers and the flowers.
And then I have used punches from Nellie Snellen and Martha Stewart.

With this card I will participate in

Magnolia-Licious Color Challenge #8

I wanna say Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my blog, although I have been so lousy at visiting yours :o( I promise I'll do better.

So please don't stop, I really appreciate that you do :D

Take care!

Hugs

Födelsedag

Trots att söndagar är slutet på helgen och väntan på en ny arbetsvecka, tycker jag ändå om söndagar. Oftast har man inga måsten, utan kan bara ta dagen som den kommer. Idag har det blivit en skogstur med våra kompisar, och våra hundar bara älskar det! Det blev till och med en liten simtur (för hundarna alltså ;o)) Härligt att våren är här! Min kära pysselkompis Lousie har fyllt år och jag tänkte att hon skulle bli förärad med ett kort från mig;o) Anledningen till att jag har koll på att hon fyller år, är nämligen att vi fyller år på samma dag :o) Och eftersom Louise är en äkta Pinklady så var färgvalet lätt som en plätt, ROSA. Men jag var tvungen att blanda i lite av mig själv i det hela också med en skvätt grönt. Naturligtvis använde jag Magnolia Tilda som motiv och målade henne med distresser. Klänningen blev rosa liksom blommorna. Pappersvalet blev Prima och Maja Design.

Här har jag använt mig av Spellbinders die nr 16. som en extra etikett att skriva i.

Närbild på Tilda.

Här ser man lite tydligare fjärilsbåden från MS som jag har använt som "stopp".

Och satt glitter på fjärilarna.

Med detta kortet tänkte jag delta i följande utmaningar:

Just Magnolia #102 Happy Birthday

Magnolia-licious Color Challenge #6

Fortsätt nu att njuta av söndagen!

Det ska iallafall jag göra genom att pyssla :D

Sköt om er och kom gärna tillbaka!
