Card for Markus

I've had a guy doing his internship at my job the past few months, with me as his mentor. He's sooooo good and he will be an absolutely great social-worker. He will end his internship at the very same day as my last day at this job, next Friday April 27. I made him this card and hope he will like it. He's very into nature, so hopefully it's not too girlish for him with flowers... The sentiment "Lycka till" means "Good luck".

Christmas-card challenge

I'm participating in a challenge at Ett julkort i veckan (a Swedish Christmas-card challenge blog). This week the challenge is to use buttons on the card. This is what I came up with!

Birthday-card

This is a birthday-card I made for my dear friend Åsa, she turned 40 (or was it 25?). She loves everything to do with Hello Kitty, so of course I had to use that on the card! And she also creates lovely earrings, necklaces and such, so of course I had to use some bling for the card as well! :)

What else? I have been offered a new job! It's about the same as I do now, but it will be closer and better paid. Let's just hope I will like it there! I will start my new job in the beginning of May!

Cutest cat!

Isn't this cat the cutest? As you might already know, I am a HUGE fan of cats. They are independent and have oh so much personality! I just love them, and especially my own Sixten, a male Norwegian Forest cat! He's not the one in the picture, though...

Anyway, this is a deco by the theme "Animals in winter" that I made for a group-swap.

Scrap-day

London 2005

Precious Mom

Last week I had a day off from work and I spent it with my very dear friend Sollan. I don't scrapbook very often, but I do have a small album in the size of 6x6" and since Sollan is a great scrapper and a huge inspiration, I thought I would do some LOs while I was there. Here above are 2 of the LOs that I made during that day. I had great fun, and I will try to scrapbook more often! Theank you Sollan for the inspiration, input and also the embellishments you let me steal from you! ;)

The one at the top is showing pics of when M and I were in London in November 2005. The other one is a tribute to my mom, she is the best mom ever!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, everybody! I hope you will have a great, crafty new year!

Here are some of my latest work. The one at the top is a deco, themed "Snowmen" (obviously, LOL), made for a group-swap. I must say that I am quite happy with the way it turned out . Note that the lovely stamp was made by my dear friend Maria! Isn't it gorgeous? I coloured it with my watercolour-pencils.

The next is a Christmas-card! Yes, Christmas is over and done with for this time, but it's never to late to begin making Christmas-cards for the next year, right?! The text on the paper "God Jul 24:12" means Merry Christmas December 24 - because here in Sweden we do ur main celebrating at Christmas Eve!

The last one is a birthday-card (probably). I did not have anybody in particular in mind when I did it, it just came to me... Both this card and the Christmas-card was coloured in with my Promarkers.

Retirement-card and Christmas-cards

 My former boss Margaretha retired last Friday. Of course I had to make her a card! She is a non-fuss woman who is always dressed in black, so this is what I came up with. It was really fun to give it to her because she was so very emotional. She hugged me and stroke my cheek - so not her usual self! 

These 2 Christmas-cards above is what I made recently. I guess it's about time to send the Christmas-cards out soon! Especially those that will go overseas!
