Christmas card -25

 A Christmas card doesn`t have to be red, green or even blue. My cards this year all turned out pastell. 

A change - yes, and I like it.

BUT - tradition is tradition - I just HAD to add some christmasy red. 

The words written are from an old Christmas song in swedish " nu har vi ljus, här i vart hus..." - something like "now we have candles/light in our house..."

And then , of course, I had to add some sewing. I found this wonderful thread in Creafil, a nice store here in Luxemburg. It has 2 colours - christmasy red and beige. Loved that combination! Perfect for framing my cards.

Take care out there!

...the very last one `for the road...

 Experimenting with different medias - love this freedom...

" a profound awareness of the universe that triggers feelings too deep and mysterious for words"

Take care out there!

Journal page - more from China.

Another art journal page. Lots of texture and different medias.
Inspired by all the things we "get" from China lately.

Q&L challenge - GIFT

Hello again!

This is my latest entry to the Q&L challenge at the craft barn.co.uk. Sorry for the bad picture - suddenly the sun came out and now the rain is back...
I chose the word "gift" and the quote is :" Yesterday is the past.
                                                                    tomorrow`s the future
                                                                    but TODAY is a gift
                                                                    that`s why it`s called the present..."

I used autumn grunge stamps from Susan K. Weckesser (Unitystampco.com), my Winsor&Newton drawing inks , a sizzix twigs die and stickers from Glitz.

Wish you all a gorgeous october!
