ATC cards....

Hi Everyone,

I am mostly creating layouts or cards. Every now and then I might alter an item. ATC card is not on my list of things I do often but we have had ATC as a theme this month on En Liten Butiks blogg and I had to challenge myself and had a go.

This is what I came up with. At En Liten Butik you can find a small tutorial on how to make the cloud background (think it was at Meljens challenge blog that I saw how to do this).

Dream Valley has a challenge called Say it with words this week. These words are important aren´t they...

Some close up picks...

Easter layout

I have made a few layouts the last days. It feels like it was a long time since I did layouts but I really enjoy doing them so I have to try to give myself time to do more of them....

This one is for my local scrap shop - Scrapbutiken. 

You can check out their blog and find out more of what I used to make this.

Another Easter Card

I think Meljens Design has the cutest images... I haven´t had time to show you this Easter card yet, so a bit late but still think it´s worth showing....

The purple paper is from my local scrap shop - Scrapbutiken and the other paper is from my scrap stash. I think they look fun together. 

I have made this with some challenges in mind. At Addicted to stamps and more they are back to "Make your Mark" and Passion for ProMarkers have a sketch to follow so those two fit well together. Since I followed the sketch this card got very clean and simple for being me.

I used Garden Bun Bun Fairy from Meljens Design and have coloured it with ProMarkers and Faber Castell pencils. I also used a white gel pen to make the dotty pattern on her dress. Some purple stickles on her bow and  apron. Blue stickles on her wings... 

I popped her up to make the image stand out a bit more. Also added stitching to the cut out shape to draw your gaze to her.

I would like to enter this card into following challenges:

Did you know that there are benefits to doodling?  While it seems counter intuitive, doodling can apparently help you to focus and remember things.  Well, we are putting doodling to the test this month and want to see you use either a doodle image of some nature or another form of doodling somewhere on your project. 

This month's sponsors...

Top Scribbler receives 3 digital images,winners choice 

Top 3 receives 1 digi image

Donating: 7 digital images, winners choice

I have used one of Sandy´s gorgeous Doodle images for this challenge.

It´s called Flower Doodle 1. 

I have used my ProMarkers and Faber Castel pencils to colour this image. I tried to keep the colours light so that you still see the fun doodle bits on the leaves. I like this soft blue colour. You can find a new challenge over at Lia Stampz, the theme is pastel colours.

I think these flowers will fit the flower challenge over at Digi Galore!

Also please check out my talented team mates creations - they doodle!

Have you started yet?

with your Christmas card? Well this is my first Christmas card for 2014. I used this gorgeous little girl with her stocking full of goodies...  the stamp is from Whimsie Doodle and called Stocking Goodies.

I coloured her with my ProMarkers and Faber Castel pencils. I am pleased with her pajamas but not so sure about the rest of the card. It got a bit to "messy" for my liking. Thought it would be a good idea with the different spotty papers, but no... I do like the colours together, pink, red and teal....

Tea Party

Today I share with you a card that I think fits both girls or boys, see if you agree? I used the freebie from Meljen´s Design that sweet Melissa so kindly given out! Thank you! This image make me think about my son he loves to throw a tea party for anyone who is around. Teddy bears, dolls, Mums or big sisters everyone is welcome, lol!

I have coloured with ProMarkers and Faber Castel pencils. Also added a little bit of stickles. The banners are made by adding washi tape to white cardstock and using i die to cut them out. Tried to keep this quite simple since I wanted the image to be the focus point.

I used ProMarkers and Faber Castell pencils to colour the image. Then I used a bit of stickles on her wings, hairband and the water... Some old silver embossig powder to create the frantage.. Aren´t tthe paper wonderful. I got them at my local scrap shop - Scrapbutiken. I think this pretty pastel purple is so pretty....

They got a great challenge over at Elphine House this week: use charms and pins, you have to use both! Can you find them? The charm is the little butterfly up in the top left corner. And the hat pin is in the shape of a purple star down the bottom right corner.

A Birthday card

I made this little card to my best friends dd who turned 2 last month. I used some papers from Bildmålarna and the stamp is from Pollycraft. I kept it rather clean and simple. Love this new dies of mine from Memorybox and I think the paper pattern, the dies and her flowers matched so well.

 I have coloured with ProMarkers and Faber Castell pencils. Since the corners had dotty pattern I made that pattern on her dress to using a white gel pen.

Kenny K goes pastel

Today I would like to share a new card with you. We had a lovely day here in Sweden today. It´s starting feel like spring. Birds are singing, the sun is shining, they swept the roads and picked up all the little stones and I can see pretty flowers popping up here and there.... I used this sweet image from Kenny K called Download Diva. I think she is so pretty and she looks like she is enjoying taking a walk in the sun, don´t you think?

I tried to use a lot of pastel colours to make this card, since the new challenge at 

Kenny K Krafty Krew 

is 

Anything Goes

twist: pastel colours

This was a fun challenge for me. I do not usually use pastel so I had to look in my scrap stash box and I found this stripy paper from Maja Design and a green coloured paper from AC.

I tried to build up a scene inspired by my spring feelings, think it turned out pretty well... and some sunshine for you too...

I used my ProMarkers and Faber Castell pencils to colour, the bird is a dies from Cherry Lynn, butterflies are Martha Stewart punch and a mix of flowers.

Please jump over to Kenny K and check out my talented team mates from

 team B(iker Girl) and show them some love...
