Kreativiteten sitter fortsatt langt inne, men jeg fikk da laget et kjapt og enkelt kort i dag også. Dette etter skissen hos 2S4Y.

En liten dytt
Etter en sprø uke fikk jeg endelig satt meg ned å laget et kort igjen. Men av en eller annen grunn sliter jeg med å velge ark og farger for tiden, så jeg ba om litt hjelp og fikk i oppdrag å lage et kort med tema "Høst". Enkelt og greit. Så da laget jeg dette med utgangspunkt i utfordringen hos Ett Trykk denne måneden:
************
I finally got to sit down and make a card again after a crazy week. But for some reason I find it hard to choose papers and colors these days, so I asked for a little help and got the assignment to make a card with the theme "Autumn". Really simple. So I made this card from the challenge at "Ett Trykk" this month.

So cute 13 and my card #101
Jeg elsker disse mønsterarkene fra Inkido. De er så søte! Og perfekte for kort til søte små. ☺
Etter gårsdagens lille jubileum og mitt innlegg nr. 100 for et par uker siden, måtte jeg ta en gjennomgang av alt jeg har laget det siste året og fant til min store overraskelse, at gårsdagens kort faktisk var nummer 100 i rekken! (Ikke medregnet andre papirprosjekter som altered esker osv.) Jeg som trodde jeg hadde passert nummer 100 for lenge siden, så viser det seg at det hundrede kortet faktisk skulle til samme mottaker som det første kortet, nøyaktig ett år etter! ☺ Jeg syns det fortjener en markering, men jeg vet ikke helt hvordan jeg skal feire det enda. Kanskje med å lage enda ett kort! ;-) I mellomtiden melder jeg meg i alle fall på That's just so cute sin utfordring #13.

I love these papers from Inkido. They're so cute! And perfect for cards for the cute little ones. ☺ After yesterdays little anniversary and my blog post #100 a couple of weeks ago, I had to rewiew everything I've made over the last year and to my big surprise I discovered that yesterday's card actually was number 100! (Not counting other paper projects, such as altered boxes and other.) I thought I passed 100 a long time ago and then it turns out that the hundred card actually was for the same recipient as the first one, excactely one year later! ☺ I think that deserves some kind of attention, but I don't really know how to celebrate yet. Maybe I'll just make another card! ;-) In the meantime I'll join That's just so cute's challenge #13

Back to the beginning
For ganske nøyaktig ett år siden, leverte jeg det jeg anser som mitt første kort som kortlager. Riktignok hadde jeg lagd kort tidligere, men da var det (enda) mer "barneskole-klipp-og-lim"-faktor over det. I løpet av det siste året har jeg lært masse og vokst med hobbyen, og utstyrslageret mitt har vokst meg langt over hodet! *lol*
Men alvorlig talt, jeg elsker å holde på med dette og ser frem til mange flere år med mange flere kort og mye mer å lære og prøve ut.

One year ago, almost to the day, I delivered what I consider my first card as a card maker. I had made a few cards before, but it was (even) more "pre-school-cut'n'glue" kinda thing. In the last year I've learnt a lot and grown with my hobby and my stash of stuff has grown way over my head! *lol* But seriously, I love doing this and look forward to many more years with many more cards and a lot more to learn and try out.

Just do it!
Kreativiteten har vært laber i det siste, (noe som kan ha sammenheng med en stygg forkjølelse) men i dag måtte jeg ta meg selv i nakken å finne på noe. Så da ble det dette bidraget til Sketchy Colors utfordring #38, Rød & turkis. Det blir også mitt bursdagskort til Kort 'O' Mania.
*************Creativity has been slow lately, (which could be connected to my nasty cold) but today I had to grab myself by the neck and do something. So I made this card for Sketchy Colors challenge #38, red and turqouise. It'll also be my birthday card for Kort 'O' Mania.

New Kids on the Blog
Det er tydeligvis flere enn meg som har savnet utfordringer for barn, så Kaylou fra Kraftywheezle og Debs fra Frecklesplace har tatt saken i egne hender og startet en egen utfordringsblogg for barn under 16 år, Messy's Mini Missions. Første utfordring kommer 1. oktober og jeg vet om en som gleder seg til det! I mellomtiden har hun tatt det første oppdraget og befalt mor til å spre budskapet i blogglandia og dermed trekker et lodd i den flotte åpningscandyen de har.

Apparenty I'm not the only one who's been missing challenges for kids, so Kaylou from Kraftywheezle and Debs from Frecklesplace has taken the matter into their own hands and started their own challenge blog for kids under 16, Messy's Mini Missions. The first challenge starts at October 1st and I know someone who's looking forward to that! In the meantime she has accepted the first mission and commanded her mother to spread the word throughout blogland and by that she takes a number in the fab opening candy they have.

Fancy a cuppa?
Dagene flyr av gårde og jeg er som vanlig i siste liten til en utfordring. Denne gangen i forumet Kortscrapping, hvor utfordringen var et kort som ikke er rundt eller firkantet.
Jeg fant ideen om et tekoppkort her, men modifiserte malen litt, slik at kortet kunne åpnes.
Legger denne inn hos Scrappekammeret også.

The days are flying by and as usual I'm last minute for a challenge. This time in the forum Kortscrapping, where the challenge was a card neither round nor squared. I found the idea of a teacup card here, but modified the template a little so the card would open. I'm entering this at Scrappekammeret too.

Have a nice day
Jeg har hatt en kjempeopprydding i mønsterarkene mine. Så deilig når man har litt oversikt igjen! Snekret dette kortet bare med rester jeg fant og etter skissen hos Mojo Monday. Nå skal jeg fortsette min herlige søndag med litt fysisk aktivitet. Ha en fin kveld!
*************
I've had a major cleanup in my paper stack. It's great to have some overwiew again! I whipped up this card with scraps I found and after the sketch at Mojo Monday. Now I'll continue my lovely Sunday with some physical activities. Have a nice evening!

Endelig helg!
Jeg hadde planer om storproduksjon i helga siden jeg endelig var helt ferdig med de to siste bestillingene og kunne gjøre hva jeg ville! Men med sykt barn i hus ble det fint lite produksjon. Men noe fikk jeg da gjort. Dette kortet lagde jeg etter Lauras skisse #60 hos 2S4Y og fargekombinasjonen rødt, hvitt og gull er utfordring #53 hos Color Create. Og siden alt er lov hos Scrappekammeret, blir jeg med der også.
************
I was planning major production this weekend since I was finally all done with the last two orders and free to do whatever I wanted. But with a sick child in the house I didn't get to produce much. But I got to do some. I made this card after Laura's sketch #60 at 2S4Y and the color combo red, white and gold is challenge #53 at Color Create. And since anything goes at Scrappekammeret I'll join there too.
And for my foreign readers, the text on the card is a quote by Goethe wich translated means something like: "Magic is to believe in yourself. If you can do that you can make anything happen".

Gut feeling
Jeg må visst lære meg å følge instinktene mine når det gjelder kortlaging, for hver gang jeg begynner å tenke for mye på et kort blir alt bare krøll. Jeg får totalt sperre etter en stund og det tar en hel evighet å lage kortet! I alle fall føles det sånn. På dette kortet har jeg tenkt og planlagt og skisset og testet i dagesvis og til slutt endte jeg opp med den aller første ideen jeg hadde. Dette blir mitt bidrag til Scrappekammerets utfordring #14 - Anything goes.
************
I guess I have to learn to follow my instincts when it comes to cardmaking, because every time I start to think toomuch on a card it just messes things up. After a while I get completely blocked and the card takes forever to make! At least it feels that way. For days I've been thinking and planning and sketching and testing on this card and finally I ended up with my very first idea. This will be my entry for Challenge #14 - Anything goes at Scrappekammeret.

Forandring fryder?
Jeg står skikkelig fast med et kort jeg holder på med og trengte å få tankene over på noe annet for en stund, så da ble det noen justeringer i bloggen. Fortell meg gjerne hva du syns!
*************
I'm really stuck with a card I'm making and needed to get my mind off it for a while, so I made a few adjustments on the blog. Feel free to let me know what you think!

Ny norsk utfordringsblogg
Personlig syns jeg ikke det kan bli for mange av dem - i alle fall ikke de norske, så jeg ønsker Kreative Krumspring velkommen med åpne armer og gleder meg til første utfordring 9. september. Inntil da trekker jeg et lodd i RAK'en de har gående og håper flere vil gjøre det samme. Lykke til!
************
New Norwegian challenge blog
Personally I don't think there can be too many - at least not in Norwegian, so I welcome Kreative Krumspring with open arms and look forward to the first challenge at September 9th. Until then I'll draw a number in their RAK and hope more will do the same. Good luck!

Nok et resultat av min andre kreative lørdag. Dette er enda et bidrag til C&S utfordringen hos Sentimental Sundays. *Another result of my second creative Saturday. This is another entry for the C&S challenge at Sentimental Sundays.*

Something old, something new... and something RED
Ser ut som om lørdagene blir min kreative tid, nå når vi er tilbake i rutiner og hverdagsliv, for i dag har jeg nok en kreativ lørdag! ☺
Denne gangen er det et bidrag til utfording #36 hos Sketchy Colors, rød/orange/gul. En virkelig utfordring for meg, for dette er farger jeg vanligvis holder meg langt unna! *lol* Men jeg gjorde et dypdykk i "arkivet" og fant frem noe av det eldste mønsterarket jeg har, noe like gammelt papirbånd og kombinerte det med et splitter nytt Hero Arts stempel jeg fikk i posten forleden og chipboard-knappene jeg fikk i candyen fra snille Marianne (Sakkalo), de kom i posten i dag! (Tusen takk, Marianne! Gjett om jeg skal kose meg med alt det deilige stæsjet! ;-))Så kombinerte jeg hele pakka med Kazan's Sketch #60 hos 2S4Y, toppet det med C&S utfordringen hos Sentimental Sundays og voila:
*************
Looks like Saturdays are gonna be my creative time now that we're back to routines and everyday life, 'cuz today I'm havin another creative Saturday. This time it's an entry for challenge #36 at Sketchy Colors, red/orange/yellow. A real challenge for me, since I usually stay far away from these colors! *lol* But I dived deep into the "archive" and found some of the oldest patterned paper I've got, some equally old craft ribbon and combined it with a brand new Hero Arts stamp I got the other day and the chipboard buttons I got in the candy from sweet Marianne (Sakkalo), they came in the mail today! (Thanks so much, Marianne! I'm really gonna enjoy myself with all the delish stuff! ;-)) Then I combined the whole thing with Kazan's Sketch #60 at 2S4Y, topped it with the C&S challenge at Sentimental Sundays and voila!

Innlegg nr 100!!
Jeg husker ikke akkurat hva jeg tenkte den dagen i mars da jeg begynte å blogge, men at jeg en gang skulle poste mitt innlegg nr. 100 var det definitivt ikke. Men her er jeg altså, innlegg nr. 100 etter snart et halvt år i bloggverdenen. Og flere skal det bli! Jeg trives godt i blogglandia, med alle utfordringer og candyer og alle de hyggelige bloggerne jeg "treffer". Jeg har til og med fått mine helt egne følgere, noe jeg absolutt ikke hadde trodd jeg skulle få! Jeg setter virkelig stor pris på dere og alle hyggelige kommentarer jeg får! Nå må jeg bare bli flinkere til å kommentere selv!
Så over til dagens kort: Det er ikke nr. 100, for det passerte jeg faktisk for en stund siden! ;-) Dette kortet lagde jeg i går kveld, men da jeg var ferdig med det var jeg så trøtt at jeg måtte legge meg før jeg fikk postet det! *lol* Kortet er egentlig en bestilling på et dåpskort, men jeg er veldig usikker på om det svarer til kundens forventninger, så det er meget mulig at jeg lager et nytt..

Cute Card Thursday - Challenge 128 Material girl
Nordsalten Hobbyklubb - Utfordring 13 Wings
Really Reasonable Ribbons - September 1st challenge Flowers
*************
I don't remember excactely what I was thinking that day in March when I started blogging, but it was definately not that I would publish my post no# 100 some day! But here I am, post no# 100 after almost six months in the blog world. And more to come! I really enjoy blog country with all the challenges and candies and all the nice bloggers I "meet". I even got my very own followers, which I definately never would've thought! I really appreciate all of you and all the sweet comments I get! I just have to get better at commenting myself!
So, over to the card for today: It's not no# 100, I actually passed that a while ago! ;-) I made this card last night, but when I was done I was so tired that I had to go to bed before I got to post it! *lol* The card is really an order for a christening card, but I'm not sure it's what the customer expected, so I might make another one...

A quickie
En kjapp en i dag. Innlegget, altså, ikke kortet. ;-) Dagene bare flyr av gårde med altfor mye å gjøre og altfor lite tid, så jeg glemte nesten å vise frem det tredje kortet jeg lagde på lørdag!
Det tok faktisk ganske lang tid med dette kortet og det ble overhodet ikke som jeg hadde planlagt det, men likevel.. mottakeren ble fornøyd, så da må vel jeg også være det! ☺

A quickie today. The post that is, not the card. ;-) The days just fly by with way too much to do and not enough time so I almost forgot to show the third card I made this Saturday! It actually took a while with this card and it didn't turn out like anything I had planned, but still... the recipient was happy so I guess I have to be too! ☺
