DT Charisma - Anything but cards

It's Thursday again and we're ready for a new challenge over at Charisma and it's a fun one too, and as always we have some great sponsors.

PRIZE ONE -

Prize TWO

Prize Three

So here's what I did for today:

I made this box from Bazzill cardstock and decorated it with papers from FabScraps. I've used MS Doily Lace edge punch for the border and EK Rock Fern punch for the leaves under the flowers. The flowers and the seambinding bow are from Wild Orchid Crafts. 

I also stamped a subtle sentiment on the right side from Storyteller that reads "Enjoy life, eat chocolate".

Unfortunately I was in a bit of a hurry to upload, so I didn't have time to get pictures of the inside, but I'll add them here later today.

Challenges:
Simon Says Monday challenge - Anything goes
Crafty Creations #246 - Make it Yourself
Simon Says Wednesday challenge - Anything goes

KOM #5

Jada, jeg vet at jeg ikke har publisert KOM #4 enda, det kommer når innsiden blir ferdig. I mellomtiden får dere beskue mitt bidrag til runde 5. Oppgaven var "minst 10 blomster". Til å begynne med hørtes det skrekkelig mye ut, men etter å ha sett inspirasjonsbildet fant jeg ut at det kunne jo ikke være så vanskelig. For sikkerhets skyld kom jeg opp med en idé som garantert kom til å inneholde mer enn 10 blomster, bare se her:

Det gikk overraskende fort å lage dette kortet når ideen først var der. Jeg plukket det første og beste arket jeg fant i Maja Design Vintage Spring Basics blokka, rufset, svertet og sydde kantene og skjærte det opp på midten. Rev av noen biter (au au, det smertet meg å rive de vakre arkene!) og rullet kantene til sidene. Rullekantene ble også svertet med Distress Ink Vintage Photo og Walnut Stain. Så var det bare å kjøre på med blomster. Alle er fra Wild Orchid Crafts. Jeg la også inn noen pyntebær jeg har fått fra en hyggelig scrappedame.
Nederst festet jeg en seambinding sløyfe, svertet med Vintage Photo, og pyntet med hyssing, knapp og charm fra lageret mitt.
Teksten fra Norsk Stempelblad er stemplet på Bazzill Natural med Memento Rich Cocoa. Også her er kantene svertet med Vintage Photo. Jeg har i tillegg laget litt "sving" på banneret , men det vises ikke så godt på dette bildet.
Noen halvperler her og der ble siste finishen og dette tok meg til en andreplass i finalen. Tusen takk til alle som stemte på meg! :)

DT Charisma - "The Greed"

I really hadn't intended on my blog to die these past few weeks, but I've been in and out of the ER and on bedrest most of the time in between. Seems that every time I think that things are getting better, something worse happens to throw me off. Who is that Murphy-guy and why did he have to go make that stupid law!? But there has been a few moments of good times in between and those moment has of course been spent in my craft room, I just can't show the projects just yet. *wink, wink*

Aaaaanywhooo, it's Thursday again which means another challenge at Charisma Cardz. And as always we have some great sponsors with us:

I have made a card whith an image from one of our sponsors, Dr. Digis House of Stamps, called BBQ Bill.

The image is as always colored in with my ProMarkers. I've used a strip of an old patterned paper from Basic Grey and a tiny strip of green Bazzill in between. Topped it off with som Baker's Twine, a button and a tiny tag. I was gonna stamp a greeting on the tag, but I had no idea what it would be, so I just left it blank. Maybe I'll put in something later. We'll se where it goes.

Now you hop on over to the challenge blog, check out the prizes and the other DT's fab creations and then you get crafty with your food related images and stuff and upload it for us to see. Right? Go on then, happy crafting! ☺

Challenges:
Fussy and Fancy Friday challenge #99 - One for the boys
2 sisters #165 - Anything goes
Through the Puple Haze - Anything goes with a hint of food
Inkspirational #41 - Anything inkspirational

DT Charisma - BINGO!

I love bingo! Especially papercraft bingo. And that's what's happening over at Charisma today. You'll have to pop over there to see your board and while you're at it, check out the prizes from our fab sponsors.

Here's my bingo card for today.

(I have absolutely no idea what's going on with Blogger today, cuz the photo didn't look this blurry until I uploaded it! If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!)

I've made a fall card with an image from our lovely sponsor Time for Tea Designs, called Fall Leaves. As usual colored in with my ProMarkers. And as usual there had to be some Maja Design paper on my project. This time it's the green background paper from the Ska vi ta en Fika collection. I've teamed it up with another paper from FabScraps, didn't notice the name of it though.

I followed a sketch from Sketchy Colors and kept the decorations simple. Just the brown satin ribbon from The Ribbon Retreat, a few leaves underneath a seambinding bow (from Wild Orchid Crafts) with twine from Waltzingmouse Stamps, a button and a charm from my stash. The pearl lines are from Vivi Gade.
Easy peasy and I have BINGO! *S*

Now it's your turn to shout bingo when you upload your project to the challenge blog. Me and my teamies will be over to check the results. ;-)

Challenges:
Sketchy Colors #180 - Skisse 
Fab 'n' Funky #187- Ribbon
Simply Create Too #47 - Fall/Autumn

KOM #3

Tredje runde i Kort-O-Mania er nå avsluttet og oppgaven denne gangen var "Shippingtags". En super oppgave, men likevel vanskelig, for det er jo så uendelig mange muligheter! Her er løsningen jeg endte opp med:

Ark fra Maja Design begynner å bli rimelig standard på mine kreasjoner. *S* Denne gangen er det ark fra den nye Vintage Autumn Basics kolleksjonen og et fra Vintage Summer Basics kolleksjonen, som er distresset i kantene og svertet med Distress Ink Walnut Stain. Ytterkantene er sydd med maskinsøm.
Tagen er stanset ut i Bazzill Natural med Sizzix Tag and Bookplate die. Tag'en er dekorert med knapper, perler og blonde fra lageret mitt, samt twine fra Waltzingmouse Stamps og Seambinding fra Wild Orchid Crafts som jeg har farget med Distress Ink Reinker i Walnut Stain. Teksten er fra Norsk Stempelblad, stemplet inni et banner-stempel fra Papertrey Ink på Bazzill Natural med Memento Rich Cocoa. Det øverste banneret oppe til høyre er også fra Papertrey Ink-settet. De to andre bannerne har jeg klippet ut for hånd.

Jeg kom til finalen i denne runden og endte til slutt på en delt tredjeplass. Tusen takk for alle stemmene jeg fikk, det varmer! :-)

DT ProMarker Norge #23

Høsten er her og det merkes godt her jeg bor. Lufta er skarpere og trærne snart nakne, men det betyr bare mer tid på lekerommet og det trengs! Høsten er også et rush av bursdager i min omgangskrets og så kommer jula med alle sine prosjekter, så her er det bare å henge i!
*Fall is here and it's quite noticable where I live. The air is crisp and the trees almost bare, but that only means more time in the playroom and I need it! The fall is also a rush of birthdays around me and then comes christmas with all it's projects, so I just have to keep up!*

I dag er det min tur til å velge utfordring hos ProMarker Norge og du kan jo bare gjette hva det er. Eller du kan gå inn i bloggen og få svaret der. ;-) Her er i alle fall mitt bidrag til utfordringen.
*Today it's my turn to choose the challenge at ProMarker Norway and you can only guess what it is. Or you can check the blog and get the answer there. ;-) Here's my take on the challenge.*

Her har jeg fargelagt Abby Celebrating fra Mo Manning (farger under) og satt det sammen med noen av mine svenske favoritter fra Magnolia og Maja Design. Alle panelene er svertet med Fluid Chalk Creamy Brown og sydd med maskinsøm. Her er faktisk flere svenske favoritter, for billettstempelet og die'en er fra svenske Rox Stamps. Under motivet har jeg brukt en vanlig shippingtag med Seambinding fra Wild Orchid Crafts, Divine Twine og en knapp fra May Arts. Knappen oppe til høyre er fra Wild Orchid Crafts og det gule båndet er fra American Crafts.
*I've colored in Abby Celebrating from Mo Manning (colors listed below) and put it together with some of my Swedish favorites from Magnolia and Maja Design. All the panels are inked with Fluid Chalk Creamy Brown and sewn with machine. I've actually used more Swedish favorites because the ticket stamp and die are from Swedish Rox Stamps. Under the image I've used a regular shippingtag with Seambinding from Wild Orchid Crafts, Divine Twine and a button from May Arts. The button in the upper right corner is from Wild Orchid Crafts and the yellow ribbon is from American Crafts.*
