Høstmodus

Heisan. Nå er d veldig lenge siden jeg har fått lagt ut noe her. Det skyldes dels dataproblemer og dels at jeg har vært  med yngste sønn på skoletur til Polen og Tyskland. Og etter jeg kom hjem har jeg hangla skikkelig. Er ikke i form enda, men håper d går over snart.

Siste prosjektet - jeg lagde før jeg dro, var mitt DT bidrag til Heidis Hobbystuggu sin oktober utfordring; 3 like.
Jeg har 3 like fluer, og 3 vintage klokker:-)

Det er fortsatt tid til å bli med - så stikk over til Heidis Hobbystuggu og bli med! /

Hello. I`m sorry for the delay on my blogging. It`s partially because of som computer problems, and that I have been on a school trip with my youngest son to Poland and Germany. I cought a cold on the trip, and I have been ailing since. Hopefully It will soon past.

My last project before I went on the trip was my DT contribution to Heidis Hobbystuggu`s October challenge. 3 things alike. I have 3 flies, and 3 vintage clocks.

Its still time to enter this challange - so pop over to Heidis Hobbystuggu and join:-)

Cardbox for my sister

My sister had recently a birthday, and I made her this box, and filled it with Promarker pens as a gift. She loved itJ, and it’s of course in my favorite color these days; Purple/lilac.

I painted the box with white acrylicic paint, and  I have used papers from Fabscraps, the stamp is from Sweet Pea, and I have colored it with promarkers. I have used Msartha Stewart border punch, spellbinder dies. I believe the frame is from Kort og Godt, I have used Color Box fluid chalk; Royal Silk and Judi Kins Diamond Glaze. The lilac flourish is a wood flourish from Kaiser Craft. I have painted it with Tim Holta crackle paint, and Tim Holtz Distress Ink; Dusty concord, and on top I have used Judi Kins Diamond Glaze. The corner punch is from Nellie Snellen, and the butterfly punches as well. The metal embellishments on the sides are from Kort og Godt.

Papiravisen 7# Challenge - Steampunk

I got some new Tickled Pink Stamps “from” the postman the other day, and I had a hard time choosing which one to start with, but since I was going to make a birthday card for my nephew it had to be “Lil Victorian Steampunk Eric”. I have colored him with my promarker pens, and glued him on some black paper. On the front of the card I have used papers from 3ndy paper and My Minds Eye. I just love this new paper from “My Minds Eye” so I wanted to keep the front as “clean and simple” as possible. I started to make a rectangular card, but turned it into a “Book” card as I went along making it. The “hinges” are from Sissix - Tim Holtz Bigz dies.  (The mini flourishes on the backside as well – but a movers & shapers dies.) On the left side inside I have used a spellbinder dies, which I have distressed with Tim Holtz Distress ink – Forest Moss. Tthe spinners are from Sissix-  Tim Holtz Bigz dies. I have also actually used a real mouse trap, to hold the moneygift, I have only painted it with black acrylic paint. The key is from “Kort og Godt”. On the right side – becides steampunk Eric, I have used some Tim Holtz sprocket gears and fasteners. I have also used Sissix - Tim Holtz mini Gears Movers & shapers dies on a piece of metal paper which I embossed in Sissix – Tim Holtz Texture fade - collage2 and then brushed some black acrylic paint on. The heart is from Prima Vintage trinkets collection.

Lets light a candle.

It`s been a tragic weekend in Norway – with so many young people killed at Utøya and some in Oslo, but we will not be silenced or let the man who did this win. We will stand together and fight for our democratic rights and an open society. Yesterday many people light a candle in thousands of homes and in front of the Oslo Church, let it be the sign of hope and let it  shine for those who have lost their lives or lost someone close, my thoughts and compassion goes to you.
At first I didn’t think it would be right to publish something, but then I realized that this was just the thing I had to do…… so here is my project. We just have to keep on doing the things we love and show the world that we won`t be stopped.

I started out with this – and had an Idea;
I painted almost everything with black Adirondack acrylic paint from Ranger, and then went over it with a light stroke of Making Memories Gold paint to get the patinated effect. The key and the large wings are Grungeboard from Tim Holtz, colored with distress ink colors; Broken China, Peeled Paint, and Black Soot. The small key, heart, small birdcage, pen nib, sprocket gear, the metallic clock, crowns, small wings and birds are all Tim Holtz.The 2 large buttons are from Graphics45. The large Bird cage on the front is from KaiserCraft and I have painted it with black and gold. On the left side in front I have used lacework and added some 3D molding paste. I have sprayed Tattered Angels Glimmer mist an Chalkboard on the molding paste, the large butterfly, the flowers and the 2 small stars.Colors used; Juniper, Jazz Blue, Slate for the most – and on some things a little bit of Snow Queen mist and Peacock Chalkboard.

 On the backside I have painted the large star with black and gold (it was silver colored), I have also used spinners, hitch fasteners, metallic flower and leaf from Tim Holtz. I have also used a car fuse, and on the front a fluorescent tube.  The bottlecap is filled with molding paste, and 2 buttons , and is also sprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmer mist. Around the large key I have used regular wire that I have painted in black and gold. I have used Martha Stewart punch around the box together with a chain. The sign says”Grattis” which is “slang “ for Congratulations.
