Short visit to show a Wedding card...

For a couple that secretly got married this easter.

I made a box for the card to make it a little bit more exclusive. 

The lid is quite thick with sort of a "peep window" or false bottom

but only showing the monograms.

Paper and Tissue tape from Tim Holtz.

Cherry blossoms from a sweet friend (thank you Camilla) 

and  the rose is handmade.

Look here to make them you too.. ;)

Old hAnglar stamp.

Borrowed New Magnolia DooHickey die- Dream tag. 

Loved it so much so I bought it myself.

And something blue... ;) the jeans...

Colored the ribbon myself with homemade glimmermist.

Sentiment from Reprint or Scapa.

Heart paper from Magnolia.

 Inside 1 with a pocket for the gift.

Moneypocket.. or why not a giftcard.

For the greeting..

The heart from Stempelglede 

And the sentiment from Inkido.

Back of the card.

Stamp around from BoBunny.

My own stamp bought long time ago from Ebay.

Sorry for the boring blog.

Have a great start of the new week.

Many, many hugs to you all. :)

Craft meeting x 2 and Phunnyface at StampARTic.

Oh I´ve been busy trying to get my mojo back.

Not one but 2 craftmeetings I have been to these last couple of days.

THANK YOU girls. I had a blast both days!!!!

Lots of laughs, GOOD food (and snacks :) )

and even more things to put on the shopping list.

Then the very good company of sweet dear friends 

and some new acquaintances was FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

Here´s what I started with at one of the craft meetings.
Phunnyface recently sponsored StampARTic
team with some of their stamps.

I got the "Hulahula tjejen" and the "Coola Sara".

Here´s my cards with the lovely stamps:

Aloha:
Background paper Prima Marketing
Pink paper Cosmo Cricket
Turquoise paper Heidi Swapp
Sunset in background are a stamp from
MME Madison  Avenue "Pretty Stamps".
Flowers and leaves from Magnolia.
Sentiment made with MM Tiny Alpha.
And of course the "HulaHula tjejen"(girl) from Phunnyface. ;)

Regina:

My sister graduated this thursday. Heres the card she got from us.

Cool Sara are not a graduation stamp. 

But I thought it reminds my of my sister so 

I put a graduation cap cut from a paper on her.

The paper I used for that are from Maja Design 

and are called "Lyckliga dag"

All the other papers are also from Maja Design. 

The collection called "Äntligen".

Student stamp from Inkido.

Round stamp Magnolia.

Music notes from Forma Hantverk I think.

Flowers from Prima that I have remodeled a bit.

Leaves are a Martha Stewart punch.

And then the motif  "Coola Sara" from Phunnyface.

Have a great weekend!!!

Papir design article....

...today in StampARTic.

Unfortunately I had the flue and Maissi
where also sick when we aired 

the Papir design articles.
So we made a new post today,

together with the winner announcement.  

Here are the post in the magazine 

My post where suppose to been in the wedding article
and Maissis in the spring article.

Links to what the other ladies
did are in the post link above.

Here´s my wedding projects.

LOVELY papers I got to play with are they not.

A little cool are the strong colors 

and the vintage wedding couple.

Hand sew around the card.

Just too bad I can use this card. 

It´s in Norwegian.

Or do I know any Norwegians getting 

married/have wedding day??

Liked this frame so much and wondered how I could put it to 

the center without clogging with to much decorations.

There´s a locking mechanism in the "Gratulerer" - sentiment.

You tuck the sides of the card under and it stays closed. 

Open card.

The first box I made.

A small gift for the wedding couple...??

Just love this turquoise paper. 

Another locking mechanism. 

For the hubby as a morning gift???

An one in all box. 

By that I mean the lid is in one piece with the box.

Perhaps for a thank you gift for the maid of honor..??

All boxes together and also a bigger one.

Last but not least.

An envelope for the invitation.

 Front for the address.

And back.

 The envelope I found here...

So now I got all these.

Start getting married!! ;)

*lol*

Just kidding!

But have a great new week! :)

Lots of hugs SasSa

Easter card, Fiskars project and winner of blogcandy.

It´s a new month and therefore a new challenge in StampARTic.

Eva´s challenge are an Easter card in
yellow and an optional color. 

Small amounts of other colors are OK but 

Yellow and the other shall be in focus.

Here´s  my card.

Yellow and turquoise as leading stars.

Love the combo.

Motif and text are from hÄnglar the new easter stamps.

Just love them!

Flower are an older hÄnglar stamp.

Ornament over and under the text from Pink Paislee.

The kit in my blogcandy. 

And the turquoise flower are one Retro flower that 

I begun to make as a rose but stopped after
the misting and the first tweezer step.

Added some Puffy velvet marker too.

Open card it´s an easel card but opens sideways.

Called Twisted Easel card I think.

Saw the tutorial HERE.

Inside a small hÄnglar boy and some easter eggs from Magnolia.

When we already speak of StampARTic...

Fiskars has been once again a generous sponsor to the StampARTic team.

Here´s the article we made.

And this is the material I got and my projects.

Everywhere window punch - Circle 

Everywhere window punch - Square

A continuous stamp tp the new Stamp Wheel - Elegant Vine

Stamp ink pad to the wheel.

And the new Lace and Lattice Border and Corner Punch.

Just love that I can make window looking papers with the 

"Everywhere window punch -square". 

And are the new Lace and Lattice punch not pretty?

Adore it.

Here I used the stamp on the egg but not with the stamp wheel

because I had not gotten that yet.

Embossed with  a glitter emboss powder in old pink.

Also the Lace and Lattice punch and the Everywhere punch square.

A box lid stamped with the flourish stamp with

watermark pad and then covered with perfect pearls.

Easter lily from an older Fiskars set I got.

Inside the box I made compartments.

To hold candy like the picture or something else perhaps...

The Everywhere punch where awesome to do that.

 Just a card using the Everywhere punch square.

I think it´s a bit boring so I did not use it in the original article.

But I like it somehow still so ....

Pretty paper from Maja design.

Stamped and embossed Elegant Vine
with clear embossing powder.

And colored the paper with distress ink(Victorian Velvet).

Some windows are made and a little decorations.

The small flower punch are Fiskars, from last year.

So are also the star punch or is it from year before that.

That was my Fiskars projects.
