#77 - You're special

Polkadoodle Challenge Blog has a new challenge "Stitching (Real or Faux) With Lace" and combined with the challenge over at Flat Friends Challenge Blog "Put a bling on it" I came up with this. The stamp is a free digi that I got from the Flat Friends Challenge Blog, I'm so in love with these stamps and as soon as my salary gets here I will buy a few. I doesn't show up so good on the picture, but for extra bling I have covered her shirt with Star Dust Stickles.

#76 - Transforming TP Roll

So youtube have been a big source for inspiration for me lately, been watching alot of craft videos and altering things has been something I wanted to do. So when I found Itripledogdareu's challenge I know I wanted to try. So I did and when looking at the finished product it was nothing like I thought it would turn out. But instead of just chucking it and not try again (as I usually would), I just stripped it from everything, painted it white with acrylic paint and started over. And this time it turned out just as I wanted :). If you want to know more watch the video.

#75 - Happy Birthday Book Matchbox

My bf's mother had her birthday and as we had booked tickets to go visit her and the rest of his family I thought I make something different than a card. I've been having a bunch of svg files from Svgcuts.com since before Christmas and with the Silouette arriving I could now cut them with a better accuracy than with the eCraft so I wanted to try making the book matchbox. I choose to make it a little bit more flowery. Hope you like it :)

#74 - Sending with love

With all of these giveaways I have been having I'm started to get an increasing collection of addresses, and as some people do win several times I have found that I really should save them somewhere. I tried a book, but I never finds it when I need it and always forget to write in it, and the order where horrendous. So seeing a recipe-box on pintrest I thought I could make this for myself as an address-box instead. To see the details and the project watch the video below.

#70-73 A blue friday

Yesterday when I made those cute little note cards I found this really cute lace in the package from Angie, but as I already had a color scheme for the note cards I had to choose another. But that lace just stuck in my mind and I knew I had to make some more cards. These cards are very similar to the note cards but I used some of the same cardstock as the card bases to simulate a table and used the lace as a "table cloth". The flowers is cut out on my Silhouette Cameo that I just love to bits, feeling I'm in for a long and steady relationship with this one ;)

#66 - 69 A few thank you

The fun continues over at Polkadoodles Challenge Page they have their second blog hop/challenge with a wonderful free digi. The digi is by artist Emma Canning and is called Cupcake Cutie. And as with last challenge I just fell in love with that amazing digi so I just had to play with it. My first idea was small note cards, and when you do note cards you can't just make one. So here is my four cards that I enter as one in the challenge. Hope you like them.

#63 - A simple box

Have been wanting to make a box for awhile, and Crafter's Companion Monthly Challenge Blog challenge this week is Anything BUT a card, so I was eager to try it out. This box is made of core'dinations (pastel collection) on the Box board for the Ultimate pro. The pattern paper used is from the Fairyopolis papercraft cd, printed on 160 gsm paper. The flower is also made from papers from same cd. All those products can be found on the Crafter's Companion website.
