Midchallenge #61 Ds4j

Digistamps4Joy's midchallenge #61 called "Birthday's are fun" are showing Team B's creations and I made a birthday card for a girl or boy with "Funky Kate".

I colored Funky Kate with red and black promarkers, added a pink spotted paper behind, then a red cardstock and then one with roses! Three half pearls is up in the left hand corner and a ribbon says: Congratulations! =)

Hope you will join in on our challenge! =)

Sunday Release at Ds4j

A new Sunday release is up at Digistamps4Joy and I just had to make a card with one of them, since I really love all things with an Asian style! =)

So here are the twins, not sure if they are know "Hu dun dat", but they like to have a little different colors on their clothing atleast! =) 
Added some highlights to their hair! 

I added a red ribbon and some asian charms on top of it, then chalked the edges with a green color, added a red designer paper and olive green cardstock as the card base! =)

12 tags of 2013 - February

I'm doing another one of Tim Holt's tags and now it's February with a Valentine theme, of course! =)

I made the background first with Distress ink: Fired brick and Spiced marmalade, spattered some water over and then inked in a bit more! 

For the playingcard part I used one Alice image from graphic 45's Halloween in Wonderland paper and added Glossy Accents to the hearts! The edge is made with my edge scraper that I finally found again! The image is mounted on foam dots!

I had an embossed paper (a cover from a chocolate box) and inked it over with a brown inkpad, to give it a different look and make the lettering more visible. Added a paper ribbon and some little heart half pearls! At the top is a red lace tape + two different ribbons! =)

I'm entering this tag into the following challenges:

The Altered Alice: Starting Chapter 24: Romance in Wonderland

Födelsedagskort

Vi har en elev som är ett stort HV71 fan och nu fyller han jämt, så jag tänkte att jag skulle göra ett kort till honom som han kan få imorgon! =)
Min första tanke var att göra ett kort format som deras logo men bläcket skrev inte ut i blått utan lila, så jag fick ändra min idé, skriva ut i mindre format och färglägga över det lila med min blåaste promarker penna! =)

Så det blev ett ganska enkelt kort, men hoppas det uppskattas ändå! =)

Heart ATC

I saw a few challenges with hearts in them and I checked my digi folder and found this heart with wings I got from Meljens Designs as a freebie and it was perfect for my ATC! =)

The image is colored with promarkers and I added a sentiment too, not sure where the stamp is from, bought it online! =)

Used my promarkers to color the image, the paper is doublesided so used both sides + a matching cardstock, added two flowers in the same color tones! =) Also found some half pearls that makes it look like I pinned the image to the paper! =)

Sparkle and Glitter/Movie Magic Monthly/Forever Friends/The Altered Alice

I saw a challenge at Movie Magic Monthly with an Alice in Wonderland movie theme, challenge #1 and I realised that I had a Creepmas Alice image that I could use for this! =)
Entering it into Sparkle and Glitter the Rick St Dennis challenge 9 too! 
Will also enter this into Forever Friends challenge 55 Anything Goes!
Got a tip about another challenge: The Altered Alice - Chapter 24 Romance in Wonderland! =)

I bought a metal heart with a christmas motif on sale after christmas and thought I would use it for something, that was in January 2012, now I have made something of it! =)

First I draw a heart shape on a paper from Glitz Design and glued it onto the heart! Then I colored Alice from Rick St Dennis and cut her out, she's still a little into christmas so has some decorations in her hair but are hugging her partially unwrapped bunny! =)
Added a rose that I had cut out and saved from a box + a key, a little pink glitter and a ribbon. 

So here is my Alice in Wonderland heart! =)

A Day For Daisies Challenge #63 Pink Polka Dots

A Day For Daisies has a new challenge "Pink Polka Dots" and a gorgoeus freebie to use for it, so this time I just had to enter when I got the idea to make an ATC with the candy image! =)

I printed out two images, cut out three of the hearts from one of the images and colored them all with promarkers! Raised the three hearts on foam dots and then added a strip of heart paper from Jackie's Paper Crafts + some Polka Dot paper I had from a card kit! =)

Pattie's Creations Design Challenge #61 Valentine's day

Pattie's Creations Design Challenge #61 are having a Valentine's Day challenge and I used the lovely cupcake Freebie of the month for my Valentine ATC! =)

Added a strip of paper from a paper I used earlier that comes from Jackie's Paper Crafts! The image is colored with promarkers and I added pink glitter that almost turned into a disaster, when I tried to press the bottle the top just popped put and half of the glue all over my papers! Managed to save most of the glitter and rescue the image by cutting it out! =)

So here is the finished project with some added gems! =)

Wicked Wednesday ATC/Shelly's Images

I made an ATC using Shelly's Images "Key to your heart" set and thought I'd enter it into the challenges below! 
I used a cerealbox for the ATC, the background paper is from Jackie's Paper Crafts! 
The heart and lock is colored with promarkers and I added a little shine with 
a gold pen to the key and lock! The sentiment is chalked with a champagne inkpad!

Wicked Wednesday ATC has challenge #70 and it's all about Valentine/Love! =)

Shelly's Images has a challenge called "Neutrals with POP of color"! =)

Art With No Boundaries Ezine Vol. 3 - Guest Artist

I'm a Guest artist at Art With No Boundaries Ezine Vol.3 and this time with a Valentine card! =)

Giz Valentine

When I first saw Giz the cat I got this idea that he would look good on a Valentine, so I decided to see if that would work out. I first printed out Giz and colored him with my promarkers, so that he looked ready for Valentine in his striped top. 
Then I remembered the tutorial by Candy from the January's issue about changing the color of digital images and opened Word for Windows and managed to change the color of the Live, Love, Sing & Dance background from CS Designs to a red/brown color, which worked great as a background for Giz!

I choose a red cardstock as the card base and added the background with double sided tape, then added Giz with 3D foam that were leftovers from an earlier project. Something more was needed so I found some charms I bought earlier with double hearts and added a red ribbon with small dots to the charm and it's attached with a glue dot.  I had some leftover ribbon so that's what Giz is standing on. 
This was my first valentine this year and I'm happy with how the card turned out! 

Bonus Valentine challenge at Shelly's images

I saw that they were having a Bonus Valentine Challenge at Shelly's Images and just had to do it, especially since we got to use the wonderful images with the heart, lock, key and sentiment! Since we have until February 28th to submit our entries there are plenty of time left, but I got an idea and finished my card yesterday evening!

Got a link for a fun and easy way to make a Trifold Shutter Card Tutorial with adaptation and it was so perfect for this challenge! =)

Here is a link to a template that you can download and if you make something  Sandy want's you to add a link to inklinkz!

I watched the video and wrote down all the details and it was so easy that I will use this more in the future!
For the card I used a thicker paper I got for a bargain at Dollarstore, then printed out all the images and colored the hearts with my promarkers, the lock and key is also colored with them + some gold pens!
Added crackle accents to the lock and key as a nice touch! =) Used a red cs for the sentiment and chalked the edges with a black stamppad! For the writing area I used a sticker lace and chalked around the edges of the white papper! The heart is raised with foam dots! =)

I'm also adding this to the Seasonal Fun challenge at CDAC! =)

NanaVic's 2nd challenge

The 2nd challenge for NanaVic is up on Lady Anne's challenges and it's an Anything Goes, but if you use NanaVic's images you can win a little more! =)
The challenge starts today and ends on March 5th! =)

I used two images from her Word art "Well wishes", the frame and one of the sentiments! I merged them together using Word and then colored them with my promarkers! I added a patterned paper and some flowers to add some more color to the card! 

By the way, there is a DT-call on the blog, you can see more information HERE! =)
