A Christmas card

A Christmas Card from me

Here is my Christmas card for 2009, the only one I managed to make this year... Yeah, I know. Every year I have big plans about making tons of Christmas cards and to start early and all that, but again my plans didn't end as I hoped for. It has simply been to busy with a lot of special designs and works, and with a little girl that has been too much sick the last 6 months.

But here it is, and I hope the sweet person I made it for will like it ;-)

A few close-ups as usual, please just click on the images for larger views.

A Christmas layout for The Studio

"On Santas Lap"

This layout is my second and last work for The Studio as their guest for December.

I made this layout to a challange over in their blog. This was the challange;

1. It wouldn’t be right without a little bit of Christmas spirit, so make a Christmas layout without using Christmas themed papers or embellishments
2. Use only 1 photo
3. You can not use alphabet stickers.

I used a picture of my daughter were she is sitting on Santa's lap when she is 1 year old.

Pattern papers, die-cuts from pattern papers and ribbon from Webster's Pages. Flowers and felt corner above photo from Prima. Keyhole and photocorner from Melissa Frances. Lantern stamp from Inkadinkado.

Here are the close-ups, please just click on the images for larger views. Thank you for looking, and huge thank's to The Studio for having me as their guest this month! It's an huge honour!

Whishing you all a Happy Merry Christmas!

Happy Merry Christmas everyone!

This is just a short post to wish you all a VERY MERRY CRISTMAS!
I hope you all will have some silent days with your families, and that you all will have a nice Christmas holiday!

I'm also sorry that I haven't had time to create enough to share something here in my blog lately. I hope 2010 will give me much more time to create and to share ;-)

Today I will like to share a little peak of the only Christmas card I had time to make this year ;-) Here together with a "King Winter"/Santa Claus and some candles that I use to decorate our home with every Christmas.

I hope I can find some time to do another post here tomorrow or the next day, just had to wish you all a HAPPY MERRY CHRISTMAS today!

Huge Christmas hugs to you all!!! *hug*

Guest Design for The Studio

Your Childhood is Full of Fantasies, Dreams and Magical Moments

This month I am so honoured to be the guest over at The Studio blog!

The challange is to create a layout with layers, frames and "childhood" as theme, so I created this layout. This time I use mainly Webster's Pages pattern papers, and it was sooo fun to play with! I cut out layers and layers with pattern as embellish on a October Afternoon pattern paper (text) as a background. The lantern/street light is a stamp from Inkadinkado (check out the online store at TreL.no), and the beautiful white applique embellish (wing and frames) are from Melissa Frances.

I wanted to create this layout as a fairytale, so I didn't mind that some items was smaller then my daughter., that it looks unatural. Because like this I think it looks like my daughter is a giant angel in a fairytale or in a kind of a wonderland...






Thank you for looking everyone, and I wish you all a fab. day! And huge thank's to The Studio for having me as their guest this month! *hugs*

Vintage Swirlydoos layout

"My Mother's Family"

Here is my 3rd design for Swirlydoos, made out of their great kit "Antique Linen" with some add-ons.

The picture on this vintage layout if of my mother's family, and it's taken in 1951. My mother was one year old then, and she's the sweet little girl on the picture. On her site you can see her 4 year older sister, and their parents on their sites. I really love this family picture, pics like this is always so valuable.

Here are my close-ups for this time, please just click on them for larger views.
