Card to a RBK fan

Once again I have to blow away a lot of dust from this blog.
Because sometimes life happens! 
But as I have said before,
I will always come back!

The past few weeks I packed away my studio and moved some of
it to a smaller room. Everything is a bit chaotic
and I've been taking care of some UFOs (unfinished objects)
 there will soon be a small avalanche of posts
on my other blog Handmade by Anne.



It has been a strange time in the past month,
but now I've got the inspiration to make cards again.
Our daughter has in fact moved to be an exchange student
in Arizona for 10 months, time flies, so now it's only 9 months left!
Can't wait to have her safe back!

But I know she is having a great time ;)
She is a talented blogger, far better than her mother!!
It is so fantastic to be able to follow her through her blog ♥

Enough rambling for now...


The card I will show you today is made to fan of the city's greatest soccer team.




I have "manipulated" the teams logo and put in the name of the boy instead.
Date established is turned into confirmation date. 
I always try to create small details that make the card uniqe.
Maybe that's why I'm a "snail scrapper"..  LOL




Inside...

Thanks to Torhild who gave me the patterned paper with grass!
That's when all the pieces suddenly fell in place ;)

A different book style card, for a sporty man....

How are you doing out there in blogland?

I have been a little bit busy "lately" preparing our son's confirmation,
and last weekend we celebrated the BIG day =)

And as you may know,
I have to slow down now and then,
so thanks a lot for your patience and that you still follow my blog ♥

I can promise that I always will be back ;) 




Heisann, hvordan står det til?

Jeg har vært en del opptatt i forbindelse med
forberedelsene til vår sønns konfirmasjon.
Sist helg ble den STORE dagen feiret =)
(og mamma'n kunne stille i selvlaget kystdrakt.
Resultatet kan du se i den andre bloggen min
 Handmade by Anne  etter 17. mai .)


Tusen takk for at du stikker innom bloggen min og
♥ takk til de som fortsatt følger den ♥
Av og til må jeg ta hensyn til helsa og ta noen avbrekk,
men jeg vil alltid komme tilbake ;)


* * * * * * *

This card was reallly a challenge to make.
This man love the nature and is active in many ways.
He likes to play the game Wordfeud too.

I made his name in Wordfeud letters and put 
them on a rope (symbolizes mountain climbing).

Kortet er laget på bestilling og det var litt av en utfordring.
Herrekort er ikke min sterke side men etter et utall
runder i tenkeboksen kom jeg omsider i mål.

Resultatet ble jeg fornøyd med til slutt ;)
og det beste av alt og det som betyr mest, 
er at giveren ble fornøyd også!




His motto goes like this:

No fear - dare to run risks!





A space to put some extra text panels inside this fold.


I folded book sides as a frame for the motto....


From another angle....

Card without any image.


I don't think I have made a card without any image before.
The challenge for me this time was to do it
as Clean and Simple, and fast as possible *giggle*.
It was a card for my sister birthday yesterday.
You can find her blog here if you want to take a look into her blog =)


Jeg kan ikke huske å ha laget et kort uten motiv før.
Utfordringen jeg ga meg selv var å gjøre det så
"rent og enkelt" som mulig, og så fort som råd var *knis* 

Det er noe i uttrykket "skomakerens barn",
men i år skulle søsteren min få et kort på selve dagen!
Og jeg greide det! for flaksen var på min side denne gangen,
da hun tilfeldigvis var på gjennomreise akkurat i dag.... *puh*
Har du lyst til å ta en tur innom bloggen hennes finner du den her.













I'm entering this card into these challenges:
The Secret Crafter #176 - "No image, just words" (Spotlight card of the week!)
Little Darlings #18 - "Pearls"
Creatalicious #31 - "Lace"
