2012-02-04T15:00:00.000+01:00

The time has come to say good bye to Urban Swank. My nine month DT term has come to an end and I must say it was very nice to get the oppounity to scrap with my old time favorite Urban Lily ♥ which will allways have a place in my scrappy heart.

I will end with a page made using my favorite collections ... well I have a few more *LOL*.. but some of my favorite collections. The title says "Skrattfest" which is Swedish and means "laughing party" or something similar. Anyway the page makes me smile.

As I said in my last blog post, it is cropping time of at the Nook and challenge #2 was simply to use 10 different pattern papers on a page. This is what I made:

It is about my everyday excersise, biking to work.

It's cropping time

2012-01-12T06:40:00.004+01:00

It is cropping time over at My Scrapbook Nook and the first Challenge gave us a recipe to follow:

3 different patterned papers
a tag or journalling card.

a chipboard embellishment (edit: place where you like)
a sticker

Jag hittade två äldre YouDo papper i min samling; det ena med härliga glittriga swirls som jag klippte ut och använde som en baslinje och ett där baksidan var härligt prickigt i starka rosa nyanser som jag använde som kant och fotomatta. Basen är ett Canvas cardstock som jag har mistat och strukit med Gesso. Sen var det bara att addera det jag hittade i rosa och grå nyanser; några blommor, några pins, några brads, stickers…

I have made a layout in pink and grey with a Canvas cardstock misted and paited with gesso as a base. Then I added decos i grey and pink.

Supply:

YD Paper 12 tum Heart Circles Doublesided Glitter	YD Corrugated Paper 12x12tum Mix1 12pack	YD Sugar Dots Wildberries	YD Pins Hearts Mixed Colours 18pcs

”Man får två lotter för varje bidrag man lägger upp i Facebook-loggen inspirerat av något av kalenderluckornas bidrag. (OBS! Ladda upp ett fotografi för att visa vad ni har gjort.) Ni kan lägga upp bidrag fram till den 31/12, alltså nyårsafton, då en vinnare dras.”

God Jul ♥

2011-12-24T08:00:00.003+01:00

Idag är det julafton och jag bjuder på dubbla inlägg eftersom jag har råkat få blog-dag både på You Do och Urban Swank.

Först är det dags att öppna lucka nr 24 i You Do's adventskalender:

Jag måste erkänna att den här layouten gjorde jag till ett nummer av Inzpira (en lift av Mette) en den nådde inte ända fram. Jag har slitit så där fint på kanterna och sedan mistat lite lumpmässigt för att toppa med lager på lager av papper, minibags och dekorationer.

I must admit that this page was intended for Publication in Inzpira but it didn't quite make it all the way. It is a lift of talented Mette. I have distressed the edges, misted randomly and used layering with paper, photos and decos.

My Scrapbook Nook Advent Calendar #21

2011-12-21T08:44:00.005+01:00

Today is the 21st and its my turn to host the Nook advent calendar.

I have been a little bit late with my preparations for Christmas this year, mainly because I have had so much to do at work so I have spend the evenings working instead of creating. Therefore I had to do a race to get the Christmas cards ready and before I started the race I had only made 2. I then used "Lean" and produced 34 cards in 2.5 hours - it was actually quite fun...

To celebrate my day for the Advent Calendar Day, I am offering up a little RAK to the lucky winner.Here is what you have to do to enter the draw for the RAK: 1) leave me a comment on this post2) Follow me on my blog if you are already a follower, let me know ;)Deadline: Sunday December 25th to enter!I will draw a name on the 26th and the winner will have three days to claim the prize!Good luck

You Do's adventskalender lucka # 20 - Juli i Jul

2011-12-20T09:55:00.003+01:00

Man brukar ju prata om "Jul i Juli" men denna gången blir det tvärtom "Juli i Jul".
Vi scrappare som designar för tillverkare och grossister måste ofta ligga steget före och tänka på kommande högtider och årstider så därför blev det en sommarlayout mitt i trista kalla mörka decembervädret.

You Dos wellpapp i många olika vackra färger inspirerade mig att göra den här lila sidan. Med matchande mist, Canvas lila cardstock, twine och lila blommor i olika nyanser blev det en rätt cool monocromatisk effekt. O

You Dos corrugated paper in beautiful purple inspired me to make a monocromatic page.

Supply:
Canvas Corp White & Purple card stock
YouDo Corrugated paper 6×6 purple YD 394846
YouDo Flower Collection Lilac YD395713
YouDo Flower Collection Rose Mini Lilac YD395935
YouDo Clips white heart YD394402
Other: Twine, QK dies, mist and gesso

Lucka #16 YouDos julkalender

2011-12-16T23:59:00.002+01:00

I lucka # 16 bjuder vi på ett enkelt julkort med bas av YouDos färdiga Cards & Envelope dekorerad med YouDos underbara ängel-julstämpel som är så användbar och fina Pine Twig. Jag har stämplat och embossat med vitt embossingpulver, limmat Pine Twig runt stämpeln och knutit en rosett med Twine.

Today we have a clean and simple chistmas card with the oh so useful angle stamp embossed in white and framed using a Pine Twig.

På insidan har jag ramat in fotgrafiet med vit cardstock som jag stansat och washi tape.

On the inside I used some green Washi Tape to frame the photo.

Supply:

YouDo cards and envelope YD 393238

You Do 's Julkalender Lucka # 12 - julkort

2011-12-12T08:00:00.002+01:00

I You Do's Julkalender lucka #12visar jag ett enkelt kortsom är ett cover-kort för årets julfoto. Ska man göra många måste det vara enkelt.

Jag har använt en Artemio schablon/mask och "målat" med Gesso med en svamp på ett rött Canvas papper som jag fäst på 3D kuddar. Under detta har jag gjort en ram med washi-tape. På kortet har jag immat 2 gröna Christmas leaves och fäst en Christmas flower på 3D kudde . Lite twine och sen är det klart. Det enda tidskrävande r att få Gesson att torka.

December Daily - Dagarna i december

2011-12-04T11:53:00.005+01:00

För några år sedan började jag på ett December Daily album men var tvungen att avbryta eftersom jag hamnade på sjukhus. Nu tänkte jag göra ett nytt försök. Canvas härliga tjocka julpapper är perfekta som bas och med YouDo’s matchande Washi Tape så går det hur lätt som helst. Här kommer de första 3 sidorna samt basen på sidan 4. Det saknas fortfarande lite dekorationer men jag tänkte att albumet ska sträcka sig fram till julafton och sen kan jag använda resten av december med att komplettera med dekorationer.

A few years ago I started a December Daily Mini but I ended up in Hospital and had to stop. Now I am ready to have a new go at it. This is how far I have come. I will save some decos til the end.

Framsidan/front page med Pig Twine och Canvas härliga rutiga julpapper.

Första uppslaget, det saknas fortfarande dekorationer.

Uppslag 2; med underbara Canvas Corp stjärnpapper och matchande You Do Washi tape

Kuvert med plats för extra foto

På andra sidan en fin julros från You Do

Dagens uppslag är fortfarande tomt ... dags att fylla dagen med innehåll :)

Glöm inte att kika in på You Do's blog varje dag för att se vilken inspiration som finns i luckorna med chans att vinna på din blogkommentar.

Memories from Halloween

2011-11-12T15:00:00.002+01:00

So now we have all taken these fab and striking Halloween photos and as the feast is over we have time to document and save those precious memories. This is what I have on dispay on the Urban Swank blog:

After misting some warm orange and gold on my background white card stock, I used the Urban Lily Mooch and Sugar Collection together with the Urban Cut mini book bright to cut elements in various colors of yellow, orange and red. I then outlined all elements that didn't already have a border and put them randomly under the photo. I also used black card stock to highlight the photos after sanding the edges to make a bright contrast.
Some alphas, some flowers and bling, washi tape and a clip, and finally a stamp and then I am ready - easy peasy.

Supply list Bus eller godis:
Canvas Corp White cardstock
Urban Lily Mooch Hyperactive ULP535
Urban Lily Sugar Collection Honey ULP421

Ribbon flower tutorial

2011-10-05T08:00:00.000+02:00

Hi and welcome to my ribbon flower tutorial. I am sure many of you have seen it before but I am also sure there will some of you that havent tried this before.
I will show you step by step how to make the pink and white dotted ribbon flower in the left lower corner of my layout that also is a part of one of the September kits for Scrap -with-V:

************
Now we will make a flower .
I recommend that you try to make one flower first before adding the glue dots for practice. This also let you see if your paper circle has the right size of the base circle.

Cut out a circle from a piece of paper.

************
************

Staple one end of the ribbon to the centre of the circle and add some glue dots or similar to the rest of the circle. Be careful so the ribbon does not stick.

************

************

Holding the circle with the attached ribbon in one hand, twist the ribbon until it is all twisted.

************

************
Start from the centre mounting the twisted ribbon in circles.

************

************
Mount the edge of the ribbon on the back side of the circle (with a glue dot) after cutting off any parts of the circle sticking outside of the ribbon.

************
************
Add the flower to the page.

Have fun creating!

2011-09-30T15:30:00.002+02:00

The time has come for my last reveal at Sketchabilities. I have been in the DT for 2 terms which is the maximum limit to stay. It has been a pleasure creating after Karans lovely sketches and I am sure I will be back just as a scrapper to be inspired. Here is my take; a little different than my usual style - I used a SEI price when creating - fun to try something different. I also used some of Primas resist canwas - that was addictive.

Now head over to the Sketchabilities site and get inspired by the rest of the DT.

I had some BellaBLVD papers laying on my scrap table and I had just looked at one of Katarinas inspiring video tutorials so I did a layout starting Katarina style with the dots and gesso and then shifting over to Petra Style with my own artsy elements.

För några veckor sedan visade jag några ATC kort jag gjort i Urban Swanks blog. Nu tog jag dem och satte på en layout. Kort i samma storlek och lite journaling så var sidan klar.

A few weeks ago I made some ATC cards for the Urban Swank blog. Now I just added a few pictures of the same size and some journaling and the page was ready. Super easy.

Journaling:
Du är på väg mot framtiden.
Får jag hjälpa dig att forma dig till en bra människa?
Får jag stötta dig vid framtida svårigheter?
Får jag dela din glädje?
Får jag se dig växa upp?
Får jag vandra vid din sida?
Vad som än händer kommer jag alltid att älska dig min fina Alva!
♥ Mamma

You are headed for the future.
May I help you to shape you into a good person?

För några veckor sedan var vi på Gotland med en annan familj. På tomten vid stugan vi hyrde fanns en gunga som var mycket populär bland barnen...

287 foto och bara ett på mig

På vår semester blev det 287 foto och bara ett av dem var på mig... och det har jag tagit själv i backspegeln på bilen... suck.

Starting a little bit early

2011-08-01T18:18:00.006+02:00

My term as a DT member at Scrap-with-V-kits doesn't start until September but I got the opportunity to start a little bit early interpreting the August insprirational sketch. Here is my take:

Now go check out what 0the rest of the team have made (and the sketch) at the Scrap-with-V blog.

Scrap-with-V is a little bit different than other kit clubs. The kit you buy come with step-by-step instructions made by a member of the Design Team so that you have a template on how to use the kit for a few creations. Perfect for beginners or those who want to learn by doing what others do. Like a CASE. My first kit will be up in September.

A passion for Urban Lily Mooch ♥

2011-07-09T19:00:00.000+02:00

I have a real passion for the Mooch paper line and the big pink circle inspired my to do some small circles using mist. I also cut out a smaller half circle from the mooch paper and used at the edge of the paper.

I cut out some flowers from the happy everything paper but I wanted some more variations in color (one of the flowers was all deep pink) so I used a white pen to color parts of the flower - to make it look more like the other flowers. I then smothed the white with my finger tip until I had the effect I was serching for. I mounted the flowers on 3D foam.

I cut the title form a Happy Everything paper.

kalspåsar

2011-06-22T20:17:00.004+02:00

Jag piffade upp dotterns kalaspåsar med lite papperstråd/ paper thread och en söt etikett. Lite skojigare än en färdigköpt påse. Alla barnen verkade nöjda, men det kanske berodde mest på att de var fullproppade med popcorn, russin, balong, flärp och såpbubblor.

Material:

You Do Party Candles YD393634, Canvas cardstock, Paper hread Mix Pastells YD394938
