Well - that's puzzle pieces of course - for those of you that are following our Belles 'n Whistles Puzzle Game? Have you been searching for puzzle piece no 5??
Glad that I decided to stay up late tonight - since I get the honor to display piece no 5 ;-)

Hello girlfriend

I'm having so much fun lately - being able to colour images and make some cards without having to bother about time and getting up early to go to the office. Vacation time in Sweden (we are entitled to 25 days a year by Swedish law) is just wonderful!

Anyway - wanted to share this little card with you and hoping that you are enjoying Summer as much as I am. I wanted to use a stamp that has been waiting for some ink for a while - and that's Young Cathrine with friends - from mine and Susana's very first release of Anki's Sweethearts.
I wanted to use her - since this card is going to a special blog friend (can't tell you - it's a secret ;-) and because Cathrine is surrounded by her friends.

Coloured her with my copics and chalked around the image with pine cone.

Used my new SU DPs - loving them but I'm also in love with new Basic Grey DPs that Susana have in store for us now. Can't wait for mine to arrive ;-)

Cut out the Sentiment - Hello girlfriend - from Aud's design (yes - our DT colleague Aud) with my SU punches and added some Bella Baubles - voila ;-)
I wanted to have a clean look and go back to the "basics" - if you know what I mean.

Looking fwd to hear what you think about this one and we are one day closer to the weekend - well - that I don't care about because I am having VACATION - YEAH!!! *lol*

Wedding



Hej!

As many of you know - we attended a wedding for Emma and Krister in the Southern part of Sweden last weekend - July 4th. I can tell you - it was a really hot wedding - all the guests were wishing for a poolparty ;-). Thank you Emma and Krister for a wonderful wedding!

I made the folder card above - since we gave them a gift certificate (they want a new dining table). Used my SU and Inkido DPs. Sentiment from SU(except for the Swedish word Kärlek = Love - that was cut out from the DP from Inkido). Added some roses and hearts from stash. The cute couple is from an Italian brand - that Serena was so kind to send to me.
I coloured them with my copics.

Here's a pic of the inside of the folder:
I also want to share these pics of the happy Mrs and Mr Norin:
Hope you are having a great week so far! I am enjoying my vacation - so nice to be able to relax and make some cards ;-)

Our little Superman

TIOT26 is to make a Scrapbooking page using a stamp from Anki's Sweethearts or the Victoria Case collection.

Well - I have a confession to make - I've never EVER made one earlier. I've only been making cards - since I did not think Scrapbooking pages was something for me. Well - Suzanne - now you got me started - so I better make an album for Isac ;-)

I found these three pictures of Isac as a toddler. I think he is around 11-12 months on these ones. He loved his Superman t-shirt that we got for him in Vienna. Isac has always been curious and wanting to explore things. Well - I guess like all kids - he needed to check out the stones and hm......can you eat these or???

I decided to use Little Helper for my stamp and coloured it with copics. The reason why I chose the little helper is not only for it showing a "Little Man" - but it's also for me a boy on new adventures (alltid på nya äventyr in Swedish) with his little helper.
The DPs are all from SU as well as the Cardstock and Ribbons. Cut out some flowers with my punches and added Bella Baubles to the center. Used my SU Wheel for the yellow lace.
Added some stones. The letters are from my friend Serena - thank you sweetie!
Hope that you also give it a try and upload your projects to SCS or PCP with the keyword "TIOT26".
Also - I hope you have not missed the NEWS over at SCACD??? Well - make sure that you stay tuned - since Susana have some exclusive stamps

Brunette Hair

Hope you have had a wonderful weekend. We have just arrived after attending a wedding in the Southern part of Sweden. I will show you some pics of the happy couple tomorrow.
I wanted to get some creativity done while I was doing the laundry - so I checked out the challenge set over at Copic Creations - it was Brunette Hair! Perfect!!
So here you have little Julia -the cheerleader - coloured as a brunette (well for me she always is - because my niece (only 7 months) is the model for this image from the Anki's Sweethearts release no 2.

I coloured her with my copics of course. Added highlights with my white gel pen. Punched out some flowers and even got to use my new crimper from SU (the small yellow part - and the small yellow flowers). Added some dew drops in the center. DP and Cardstock from SU.
Sentiment - is the from the new Susanaments.

Here's a close up of Julia:


I hope you like it. Now I better go downstairs and take care of the laundry...or should I ask hubby to do that ;-)

Serena - can you tell how happy I am?

Hej!


As promised - I wanted to share pictures of Isac with his new toy - the Ducati that he got from Serena. Here you have him - kissing his new toy :-)

Here's another picture of him - and if you wonder what's on the picture behind him - well that is a picture of Fredrik (my brother-in-law) standing outside of a Ferrari. Isac is just like Fredrik - addicted to Ferrari ;-) When he saw that photo - he wanted it up on one of our doors. So Serena - you better watch out - we will come and visit you one day in Italy...hihi.....
I also wanted to mention that we have so much fun going on in the two wonderful teams that I am privileged to be part of.
So here's for the second shout out for today: Don't miss the Sneak-A-Peek fun over at Belles'n Whistles. Can't say anything more - since I've promised Summer....hihi........but I am sure you all will love it - so what are you waiting for
- pop over to the Belles 'n Whistles and read all about it.

Ready for some more fun over at SCACD?
