Tiddly Reindeer

It is Tiddly Friday time and as we’re very close to Christmas, I’ve opted for making a Christmas card: a blue one! The stamp I’ve used is the super cute Reindeer Games.

I’ve kept the card simple by framing it with some blue card stock, a sentiment by Huldra Designstudio and some silver rhinestones.

Oh and did you know that Tiddly Inks is having a sale this weekend? Though Monday 26th November you can get 45% off by using the code THANKSG18! Crazy! Check the main blog for more details.

Huldra snowman

I got invited to a crafting retreat this autumn quite last minute and this is one of the cards I made there. One of the other ladies there inspired this card as she’d made a beautiful mosaic background with leftover green papers. I simply had to lift the idea and made a card of my own with the same technique. I really quite like it!

Helt i siste liten fikk jeg en invitasjon til Hønetreffet som arrangeres årlig på Hønefoss, og jeg takket selvfølgelig ja! En produktiv halvannen dag var resultatet, og der ble jeg også spesielt inspirert av et kort som en annen treffdeltager (arrangøren) lagde. Hennes var grønt, med restepapir, mens jeg gikk for mine vanlige vinterfarger.  Jeg hadde jo ikke brukt noe som helst papir så langt, så da var det å skjære av striper på nye ark, og jeg er kjempefornøyd med resultatet, så det kan fort komme flere kort med mosaikkbakgrunn fra meg!

The papers are by Maja Design and Papirdesign, and the stamps are both from Huldra Designstudio. I love the sentiment. It reads: A snowflake is the butterfly of winter.

Begge stemplene er fra Huldra Designstudio og jeg synes tekststempelet er veldig fint! The papers are from Maja Design og Papirdesign.

Copics used: B91, B93, B95, B97, C1, C3, C5, R00, R20, E71, E74, E77

Rotated stamp set

I have finally got a stamp set from Concord & 9th! I decided on one of those pattern things where you turn the stamp around four times to make the completed pattern. I used four similar Distress Oxide Inks for it and the sentiment that came with. And voila! Finished card!

LLLC: Christmas treat holder

Friday is upon us yet again and this time the La-La Land Crafts  DT Friday team has been tasked to make treat holders! I sat down with my paper tripper and my score board and after a couple of a attempts this is what I came up with. I think next time I’ll just find myself a tutorial to follow and save myself some hassle, haha. It was fun, though, and I quite like how it turned out! It is basically a box at the bottom with one panel each side tied together at the top.

I’ve used loads of different La-La Land Crafts products and you can find them all listed below the photos. In addition I’ve used Maja Design papers, some twine for the tag and ribbon to tie the box.

Here is the back side of the box which I’ve decorated with a sentiment, another hippo stamp and some dies.

Stamps:
Hippo Holiday clear stamp
Jolly Elves clear stamp (sentiments)

Dies:
Star Wreath
Filigree Christmas Tree
Long Flags
Photo Elements
Stitched Clouds border
Scalloped Rectangles
Stitched Nested Circles

Copics used: W0, W1, W3, W5, R22, R24, R39, R89, E41, E42, E43, V12, V15, V17

Dearest Friend

A couple of weeks ago I went to a crafting fair and of course I had to buy some new stamps and things. I found a stand with a few Altenew products finally, so of course I couldn’t leave empty-handed. Here is the first Altenew card I’ve made. Of course it had to be something I could colour first! I even coloured in a background colour this time!

As usual I’ve kept the card clean and simple. And the stamp set? It’s called Dearest Friend. I absolutely love the sentiments that came with as well!
