My Angel

Oh my, it's wednesday again? And only 2 months left to make Christmas cards... LOL
This time I havn't made a Christmas Card, or maybe it would work for some of my angels?
But now over to the challenge at the Pixie Cottage. This week we have a guest sketcher, Penny who has made a gorgeous sketch for us! As a additional theme we have "Metal". Hope to see you over at the Pixie Cottage!

Du store min, onsdag nå igjen? Og nå er det bare to måneder igjen til jul... Denne gangen har jeg ikke laget et julekort, eller kanskje det funker som et julekort til en av mine engler?

Men, nå over til ukas utfordring hos the Pixie Cottage. Vi har fått en nydelig skisse fra vår gjest Penny! Temaet du ellers kan velg er "metall", eller du kan bruke dem begge selvfølgelig =) Håper å se deg hos the Pixie Cottage!


Penny's sketch....

My take on the sketch....


I have used the stamp "South end Girls 2" from the Pixie Cottage's stampline.

Solan Gundersen




Da er det tid for å vise frem noe annet enn kort. Jeg har stort sett alltid noe i fingrene. Det er et sjeldent syn å se meg sitte forran tv'n å tvinne tommeltotter. Ikke at jeg ser så mye tv heller da.... For er jo alltids noe nytt man må utforske innen håndarbeide eller teknikker inne papirhobby for den sak skyld. Kan ikke påberope meg og være av det mest produktive slaget, men jeg koser meg! Og DET er jo det aller viktigste.

Jeg forelsket meg i Solan da jeg så han i garnbutikken. Han passer perfekt til å ha på hytta =) Den aller første filmen jeg så på kino var forresten Flåklypa. (Og siden har jeg sett filmen mange ganger sammen barna.) Kjell Aukrust har skapt noen underlige figurer som Ivo Caprino har laget dukkene til. Spørs om Solan får selskap av Ludvig etterhvert også...

I have something else than a card to show you to day. I fell in love with this cute knitted figure called Solan. I thought he would be perfect to have in our cabin =)
He is a figur from the movie
"Pinchcliffe Grand Prix" made by Kjell Aukrust and Ivo Caprino Maybe you have seen it? It's shown on the telly every Christmas here in Norway.


Solan






Thanks for stopping by!

I wish you a wonderful weekend =)

Something sweet....

It's time for a new challenge over at the Pixie Cottage . This time we have a beautiful sketch designed by Pam and the optional theme "something sweet". I have made a pink christmas card, isn't that sweet? *LOL* But the image "Playful Penguins" is really sweet don't you think?

Da er det tid for en ny utfordring hos the Pixie Cottage. Hvis du lurer på hvorfor det er så lenge siden jeg har laget et kort for the Pixie Cottage så er det fordi jeg har valgt og "gå ned" til en junior possisjon. Og da får jeg forhåpentlig vis tid til å lage noen kort med de ti-talls ubrukte stemplene mine også, håper jeg.... Men nå er det the Pixie Cottage det dreier seg om! Ukas utfordring er en flott skisse designet av Pam og/eller temaet "noe søtt".



Here is my sweet card..... / Her er det søte kortet mitt.....



A sneak peek of the inside...



I don't know what happened with this photo *giggle*




Some details .....




I have used the same elements on the back.....




From another angle....




Some challenges for this card:
Sketcy Colors #43 - Sketch
Paper Cutz #63 - "Anything goes"
Our Creative Corner - More is better (at least 3 types of embellishments)

You rock!

Here comes a new card from me, haven't been a good blogger lately, but I think I'm back on track again =) I try to be a friend with my ProMarkers, but I still have to practise... *giggle* I think it's much more easier to use my Distress Ink, even if it takes me at least 1 hour to ink up one single image.

Endelig, her kommer et kort fra meg. Jeg har ikke vært en god blogger i det siste, men jeg håper og tror at jeg er på rett vei igjen. Nå har prøvd å bli venn med ProMarker tusjene mine, men vi er ikke god-venner enda... *knis* Det er så enkelt å ta frem Distress Ink'en og male i vei, men det tar minst en time å male ett motiv. Og med Promarker tusjene går det betydeligere raskere hvis man knekker koden da...

Here is the image Download Diva" / Her er motivet "Download Diva"



Once again I have tried to use powerful colors, I don't feel I rock *LOL* /
Atter en gang har jeg ramlet utpå glattisen med sterke farger *Ha, ha*


From another angle..... / Fra en annen vinkel.....

Some challenges for this card:
Party Time Tuesdays #17 - Anything goes (Birthday cards only)
Tuesday Throwdown #22- Anything goes
Little Red Wagon #50 - Something old, something new (new - image, old - heart)



Have a wonderful day!

Hugs from Anne




Ha en flott dag!

4 generations together =)



Last week we had a fall holliday here in the middel of Norway. We went on my grandparents cabin, and we were 4 generations together =) The oldes 88 years, and the youngest 13 years.
It was so nice to spend some time together again!!

Forrige uke hadde vi høstferie her i trøndelag. Vi reiste ut til mine besteforeldres hytte, 4 generasjoner samlet =) Den gamleste er 88 år og den yngste 13 år.
Det var kjempekoselig å være samlet igjen!!


Here is the cabin....

Of course we had to make a campfire.....


My daughter want to have a camera similar to my Canon ;)
In the meantime she borrow mine. And I think she took some beautiful "mood full" pictures!


Datteren i huset ønsker seg sitt eget Canon camera, men for øyeblikket må hun nøye seg med å låne mitt.
Jeg synes hun har tatt noen stemningsfulle bilder!

Deep in the forest....
A beautiful waterfall.....


A spider is a great artist!

Hope you liked our pictures from the norwegian autumn.

Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs from Anne

Håper du likte høstbildene våre =)

Finally 13!!

Thank you for being patient! I'm so glad that you found the way to my blog =) I haven't been around here for a while, but I think I'm back on track again....

Here is the card I made for my son's 13th birthday. Finally teenager!!! He loves to play football so I had to add some football elements. I was lucky to have a charm with no 9 on the back, the same number as he has on his shirt =) The text on the card says "The worlds greatest teenager boy" and the big text stamp says... *giggle* I don't know the exact word but something like "to be tough"

Det har vært stille her inne en stund, men jeg er glad du fant veien hit igjen =) Og nå tror jeg kanskje jeg er tilbake på riktig spor igjen.... Selv om jeg ikke har laget noen kort så har jeg ikke vært helt uten kreative sysler. Jeg har ferdigstillt noen gamle prosjekter på strikke- og sy-fronten, skal legge ut noe av det her i løpet av uka tenkte jeg.

Her er kortet jeg laget til sønnen min til 13årsdagen. Endelig tenåring!!! Han har alltid vært glad i å spille fotball så jeg måtte selvfølgelig ha med noen elementer fra det. Jeg hadde til og med en fotballtrøye charm som har nummeret hans på ryggen. Snakk om flaks =) *knis* Jeg som nesten ikke har charms...




The charm with his number on the back....

I made the card clean and simple inside.....
Text stamp says: "To you on your birthday"


Some challenges for this card:
Cards for men #21 - Happy Birthday
Ooh La La #64 - Nothing Floral
Simon says stamp and show - Some Metal
Party Time Tuesday #15 - Anything Goes Birthday
Glitterbabe's #15 - Anything goes (I have used black sparkle=)
