Here we go again!

I join the challenge at Simon Says Stamp where the theme this week is recycle .

My ballerina/angel is made of cardboard, old bookpages, a metall wire, and different stamps from Stampotique /Leeta by daniel Torrente) and Susan K. Weckesser (autumn grunge = wings).

Made my heart very happy! Thank you for the inspiration dear Trish Latimer!

Another challenge at SimonSaysStamp.

This time sparkle & shine .

I embossed my "sketched heart"  and the "old tab" with black sparkle from Ranger.

The background paper is a leftover from Christmas cards.

"thinking if you"

 

Today it is fathers day on Sweden - the first one without my father alive. 

This card is for him - thinking of you - not only today.

I didn`t think I would have you in my mind as often as I do. We have been separated for years but now I feel you closer to me than in a very long time. Maybe because there are no borders between us anymore? 

I feel your presens every day. In a happy way. 💓

This card is made with watercolors, NeobolorsII , a die from Kesi`art (paraplui) , a stamp from Stampotique (candle) and the text from Ali Edwards. 

I join the challenge at Simonsaysstamp where the theme this week is Thinking of you.

Wishing you a lovely sunday!

Embossing green

 Back from holidays, back from Vietnam...

...still thinking GREEN though,

and I believe that I will for a long time.

The best it yet to come? My hope for our green planet.

The latest challenge at Simon Says Stamp is all about embossing so I add this card to their 

wednesdaychallenge.

Let`s hope November will bring us some sunny days as well! I know we are blessed to get rain but it could be nice to see some sun in between the clouds too !

sparkle and shine #enjoy the moment

 

At Simon Says Stamp this monday the theme is sparkle and shine. I`m in  the mood for coloring, stamping and cutting out images , so this is my tag for that challenge.

Sparkly flowers, dragonfly, caterpillar and even the eyes of the art doll.

It made me think of the quote;

" accept both compliments and criticism - it takes both sun and rain for a flower to grow"

Bye for now.

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.
