brown + yellow ??
If someone had told me a month ago I would soon scrap in chocolate brown and bright yellow I would have laughed.. But thats just one of the gazillion things I like with the Nook-kits! You get a fully coordinated box of lovelies ever month, and its really a box of inspiration, you just have to dive right into it!
I admit I was a bit hesitant about the BG Orgigins line.. sure, they looked beautiful, but I dont hink I would have baught them if I hadn't seen them live..
Don't forget to ENJOY!

size - does matter
I lifted the very talented Stacey Michaud last week! Her LO Create was so gorgeous I just had to!
I love the simplicity and elegance she works with, it looks so easy, but is oh so hard!
I used a couple of pictures of Argos when on a walk in the woods. He likes to pick up sticks to carry around.. the bigger the better! Sometimes there not sticks, more like small trees!
My absolute favourite paperline I think! Pink Paislees Amber Road.. I only have small small scraps left!
*iiik* and I cant find them all in any swe webshop.. d'oh!
I really need more of that dark patterned one, and the scalloped, and the red...

Thanks again for the inspiration Stacey!

Daddy & the Doll
Toodles!!
Today I'm happy!
My darling D came home from his course, finally!! The trains were very very delayed yeasterday, so instead of showing up at midnight, he arrived around lunch today.. He got to sleep in a hotel at least, so it wasnt all togheter horrible!
Theres just so much snow here, I almost didnt make my walk to work this morning.. No plows out by that time so I have to force my way trough all the newly fallen snow! Thank heavens for great shoes!!
Well, anyway, I did another challenge over at Magdas, a scraplift from Pernilla Tj
My take:
LilyBee French Couture papers, Martha Steweart hydrangea punch, flowers from prima and IKEA, thickers, old buttons
The pic is on my dad and my fav doll when I was very very young! Just look at how young my dad looks! :) Cute, right? I used to call all my dolls Britta.. except the one with broken blinking eyes.. she was called Blind-Britta..
Kalle at the great wall of China
Magdas scrapbooking are having a releaseparty for their new forum!
Lots of fun challenges! I so hope I have time for them all!
I did this after a sketch:
DCWV Far East papers, making memories canvas tag, suitcase from 7gypsies, birds from an overlay and prima flowers.
I did a bit stiching on my broken machine, its hard, but it works moderatly...

Love Notes
Im really into the card-making atm!
I forgot how much fun it is! And all my old stamps are as good as new when trying to use my distress inks.
I've had a lot of trouble with the paper "bleeding", but Iäve just baugth some high quality paper and brushes, so we will see if its the paper or myself that was to blame!
Practise makes perfect and I still have a long way to go!
Any tips in this area, (or any other area for that matter) feel free to share! :)
This weeks sketch on 2 sketches 4 you:
My take:
Henry the Mouse from WoJ, coloured with distress inks.
Paperscraps from Pink Paislee

Purple!!
I think this is my first purple card ever!
But I love it!
Been playing around with my disress inks, using a lot of bad words... :/
Going shopping tomorrow for better paper and brushes and practise more and more!
I love the result when it goes well, but I always end up ruining it at the end by making some silly mistake thats ireparable..
This is after a sketch on the Whiff of joy challenge blog!
Hurra för Mago!!
Egentligen är det Magos födelsidag imorgon,
men sneakar lite och visar hennes grattiskort nu, eftersom jag blev så inspirerad av en Tettiz skiss hos
Cards of Maria och inlämningstiden går ut idag!
Hoppas du är ute och firar och inte sitter framför min blogg och trökar Mago-darling!
Löv jå!

I found this inspirering sketch over at the Sugarbowl I just had to play with!
This is my take on it:
I love the Basic grey paper with those pretty flowers, I only have a very small piece left that I treasure now!
Need to get my hands on some more!

I've been thinking about you..
We must have been stone crazy
when we thought we were just friends,
'Cause I miss you, baby,
And I've got those feelings again.
I guess I'm all confused about you,
I feel so in love
Oh, baby, what can I do?
I've been thinking about you.
I've been thinking about you
I've been thinking about you
I've been thinking about you, shi-pow-pow!
Jupp!! It got stuck in my head while I was making this card!! And now I cant get it out!
Thought I'd toss this card in the hat over at A spoon full of sugar!
Wish me luck!! :)

mini bookshelf + mini girl ♥
An altered object to a contest on svenskscrapbooking!
It only took me about a year to get around to this project!
I saw this supercute thing on Kaisercraft, emailed a pic to my mum and, tada! She made one for me out of wood!
She also cut out a lot of 4"x4" wood pieces wich I will make into minialbums.. just give me another year or so..
I first painted the edges with acrylic paint, and then used the gorgeous Cosmo Cricket paper
to dress it. Mixed flowers and bling.
details:
Just had to make another LO with the january kit from the Nook!
Its just soo pretty! :)
Emmas cute cute daughter! I really need to visit them soon!! I miss them both!
