Christmas-card!

Do you think I've probably lost it? Haha! No, I've taken upon a challenge here to make 1 Christmas-card per week the whole year, and this is the first one! It will be nice in December, when I will have 50 Christmas-cards ready! I will even be able to take part in a fair and sell some!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYBODY! I hope that 2011 will be a great year with lots of new, good experiences and lots and lots of time to craft!!

This is a card I made for a colleague and friend - J - who moved to Cyprus since her husband got a job there. A big change for her, but I am sure it will be great! And such a difference from this cold north! I cannot help but envy her...

However, J loves the vintage look and also blue, so this card I made was spot on! And I am really happy with it as well... :)

Another one

Another Christmas-card! This is one of those that I sold, and I like it! I have had good use of that edge-punch from Fiskars, I really like the look it gives.

Tomorrow it's Christmas-eve, and that is the main Christmas-day here in Sweden. For some reason THAT is the day, as opposed to the rest of the world (well, almost all the world). So, today I am off work and have lots and lots to do at home - so why am I placed in front of the computer??

Christmas coming up

Christmas is just around the corner and I have been sooo busy lately! So this time I will show you a few of this year's Christmas-cards. For the first one, I used untraditional colours and I am quite satisfied with it! The text is embossed with glittery black and it's Swedish for "Warm Christmas hugs".

The next card I made in purple, also pretty untraditional. I wasn't as satisfied with this one as the one above, but this one was actually sold when I brought my cards with me to work. Somebody liked this best of all!

This card is one of my absolute favourites, and this one was sold very quickly. I love the colours and I especially love the little glass-tree hanging down from the twine.

I also want to share with you that there is a fabulous blogcandy here! Can you believe all the goodies?!

Craft-meeting

Today I met 3 friends for a craft-meeting! We started the whole thing by going to a crafts-fair, and I did quite some shopping, I have to admit! Then we went to Frida's place and crafted - I made 5 Christmas-cards and the one above is the first one I made today... Thanks girls (and especially our hostess Frida), I had a blast!

Sorry!

Please forgive me my absence! Things have been very hectic at work and I'm kind of beat when I get home in the evenings. Now things are lightning up and I hope to be able to be more present soon, and to have more energy to do more crafting!

However, this is one of my newest decos, the theme is "First kiss", isn't the picture sweet?

Christmas-card!

I am home with a slight fever, but I did manage to craft a little bit yesterday. I figured it's time to get some of the Christmas-cards ready, and this is what I came up with. I am pretty happy with the result. I stamped a Christmas-tree purely in green, cut it out and mounted it on a small square of green card-stock (that I actually cut ouyt with a nestability, if you look closely you can tell it's not quite even on the edges. It's supposed to look like that!). Then I glued some red bling-stones on it to look like Christmas-ornaments. Pretty!

The fever is on its way to leave, thank goodness. Yesterday I was beginning to think I would be stuck with it for a looooong time, but today I have a little more energy.
