Playing with my gelli plate...

I get the feeling that my Christmas cards this year will be more pink than red.

Having fun!

Gummiapan dies and stamps :)

A couple of years ago I met Gummiapan (rubbermonkey) at a trade fair in Germany. I like the quirky style.

Now I have been told that they make advent calendar loaded with dies - how cool is that ?

Of course I had to find my "old" box and put a card together.

Autumn will arrive pretty soon with its wonderful colours and loads of goodies to find in the forest.

So here we go - a card made with products from Gummiapan and with this card I join the wednesdaychallenge at Simon says stamp.

Tree hanger Christmas -22

 

... dachshund through the snow, in a one-hourse open sleigh...

My little tree hanger for Christmas 2022.

This year has not been the best for our family. We hope for a better year coming up pretty soon.

I do love Kate Crane and her style creating cool stuff for  Carabelle studio so I simply stole her idea making "cards " this year.

Wishing you all the VERY, VERY best for the coming year!

Saving the colours of late summer in a tag-book

 

My first pages in my new booklet - this time made out of tags. The base is either gelli print on card or on canvas. I decorate each "page" with different material I find -  or create  - fitting the color scheme .

I `m already looking forward to filling and creating the next page!

Take care out there!

#fillatinyjournal polka dots

 

This week iHanna asks for polka dots.

This spread is made with distress inks, lyrics from on old swedish song, poscapens and a "sticker" from Old Memory, Vintage Lady collection. I thought that this lady here, wearing a polka dot blouse, must be perfect for the challenge.

Stay safe!

I made this card for her when I worried most and it became like a therapy for me . It helped me deal with the situation.

Stay safe!

February challenge prompt for Mixed Up creative Academy

Another page in my art journal.

This time the prompt at Mixed Up creative Academy is about music.
Since December the song "Memories" by Maroon 5 seems to follow me  - I just can`t get it out of my head. So, of course, I had to use the lyrics for my page.

The tutor Jennifer Gallagher taught us how to create a kind of galaxy with sprays, inks and splatter.

SDC 335 - november

New month - new calendar page!

Stampotique designers Challenge no 335 is all about black and white together with another color. Because of the weather and the colors of the leaves - I chose brown ( or maybe "brownish").

I just LOVE the autumn colors - it is as if the trees show of in flowering - like the flowers in spring and summer time.

I used the stamp Relaxin` , some masks from Studio light , skeleton leaves from Sizzix and distress inks.

Wishing you all a beautiful November!
