MY GIRL ♥

I am so lucky to be aunt to a beautiful young lady called Sofie. 

Sofie is 15 years old and live next door, so I am so lucky to see her almost every day She is the swetest, kindest and most beautiful teenage girl I know and I have loved her since I saw her being born.

Last saturday was her confirmation day and we had a wonderful day celebrating her. We went to church and had dinner at the most fantastic place and today I want to show one of the card I made for her.

This card has been in Ett Trykk, Norways most fantastic craft magazine.

I loved making this one since she is really special to me.

I will show you the special album I made for her and the placecards another day, but this card first ♥

One of my sweet Magnolia images at the front as I think this is just a perfect image for a young girl.

This one is called Tilda Rose Scent and comes from Lost and Found Collection 2014. I have merged it together with the one called Tilda's dressing table and put a Kort & Godt text on it.

Inside I have used to other gorgeous stamps from Magnolia and some Kort & Godt texts.

My papers are like so many times before from Maja Design, Sofiero Collection (Ofcourse I HAD to use it for Sofie's card!) and Vintage Autumn Basics

I have used a big brown paperbag to make my card, and trust me, I have been searching, but I can't find out where I got it from and this was my last one...

Tilda Hiding Heart ♥ from With Love Collection

A stamp I have used a lot and just adore.

As decoration I have used this Marianne Design die, some WOC flowers and some flowers from my stash

Here you see the tag out a bit.

Have to show you my girl too.

Sofie ♥♥

Have a wonderful day all my wonderful friends in blogland.

EDWIN NUTCRACKER SOLDIER AGAIN :)

I am so lucky to have the chance to work with a lot of wonderful, new stuff all the time!

Today I would love to show you what I have done with the papers KREATIV SCRAPPING sent me a while back. This is the fantastic Good Ol Sport collection from Graphic 45. Amazing papers!! I loooove Graphic 45 even if they are very rich in colour and I am more cream..hehe. They are fab for all those male cards people struggle with. I don't struggle with them because I use my flowers there too :)

Hope you like my card!

It is for my sweet cousins son, Eirik who had his confirmation last weekend.

Congratulation

A paper bag card again with a different closing. Magnet hidden under the paper, works perfect.

Great papers, don't you think?

And my image is the awsome Nutcracker Soldier Edwin from Magnolia's Little Circus Moscow collection

Coloured with Copic, like always and I hope you like my Confetti shadows! 

Normally I never do this, but here it was perfect I think

Here is the flap up and you can see the whole image

I have use some small confirmasjontexts from Norsk Stempelblad and they are PERFECT!

Some Confetti shadowing around the image to create some depth.

I have used the colours from the image to create them, it is important that you use some of the same tones so you don't ruin the effect.

Flowers from WOC and Kort &Godt

Doily made with a Cheery Lynn die and it is called French Pastry Doily

Date is stamped with THIS smart little Any Tangerine stamp

Mine Copic:

Skin: E21-51-50-93

Thanks for vsiting me today. Always great to know you have been here!

My Norwegian Tilda

Hi all wonderful boys and girls out there

Last year I made this set for Magnolia Ink and I would like to share it with you. In Norway we celebrate big the Norwegian 17th May as it is Norway's Constitution day and it is a day filled with joy, happiness and a lot, and then I mean A LOT patriotic feelings ;)

No doubt we love our country♥

I have used the lovely Tilda In Cotton Dress and used my Copic Multiliner to draw her a typical Norwegian National dress.

I made a giftbag, two giftboxes and a card.

Giftbag

I have used a white paperbag. Papers from Maja Design. Two lovely Magnolia DooHickeys

    

This is Vintage Box Lacing Coffee and Heart swirl, two of my favorites.

I found inspiration to these in an old Ett Trykk.

I really must say the Tim Holtz Mini Paper Rosettes die was perfect for this!

Quite clean and simple card as I wanted to focus on the image.

Only a few Magnolia rhinestones to decorate it and some cheesecloth

Tilda in Norwegian Bunad is masked together with Magnolia's background, Stone Path

Coloured with my Copic Markers

Hope I did inspire you today to make something new ♥

Wish you all a wonderful day

HUgs, Jill

DT MAGNOLIA-TILDA WITH CROSS NECLACE

Hello again my gorgeous friends and followers!

I have had so much trouble with colouring and cardmaking since my summer vacation, but with this card I think I finally am over that! lol

I love this card and I am really super happy how it turned out.

 

First of all, the image Tilda With Crossneclace is totally gorgeous. She is from Special Moments collection 2013 and this is the first time I have ever inked her up. Even this one was my favorite after that release, time just flies and there are so many gorgeous stamps to choose all the time. Magnolia really gived us a hard time!

The second reason is that I have used UTEE again over the image, and I love the effekt it gives. Normally I put the image in the freezer after I have put on the UTEE and crack it to make it look more Vintage, but this time I just wanted it to stay like this.

 

OK, here is my card

It is made of a small white paperbag with a tag inside.

My Tilda is coloured like this because I was so inspired of the photo over at Magnolia Down Under Challenge so I would love to enter my card in the challenge.

Here is the tag taken out.

Since the card is made for a confirmation I have a cross on it. This image is so perfect for it and I can really see my self using this a lot for these type of cards.

Tag and back of card.

The papers from Magnolia are so beautiful I just couldn't hide them, so this card has no poem like almost every card I make normally have.

Tag out.

The fantastic dies are DooHickeys from Magnolia and I have used both Angel Wings from Merry Little Christmas collection and one of the gorgeous ones I got as a gift from Magnolia. I can't seem to find the name on it, so if anyone could help me I would be happy :)

LOVE this image ♥

Copics like always ;)

Skin: E21-51-50 and 93 for the rosy cheeks
