Trying something new

I love coloring images. I’ve been known to try out all kinds of mediums. I’ve been trying Pro Markers, Tombow, distress ink, inktense pencils and Copics. Probably some more too... I never tried the kind of pencils you blend with solvents like odourless mineral spirits though, but I always thought it looked kind of fun. Then I saw some youtube videos where they were using the new Spectrum Noir blendable pencils. It looked like so much fun! I was super happy when I got the chance to borrow all five sets from DESIGN in PAPERS to try them out. They are awesome, I really really like them! I haven’t had the chance to try them together with Copics yet but I think it might be fun too.

So, the other weekend I went to a crop on beautiful island Orust whith some scrappy friends. I had a great time, I love to go away to scrap a full day or two some times. I even won a challange, I’m so happy that people liked my card <3 But it was not this card, I got this Saturated Canary stamp from one of the shops at the crop. She reminds me of my daughter and I just had to have her! I colored this image at home after unpacking. I used the Spectrum Noir pens, I’m very happy with the result!

And now it’s friday afternoon and I just about done with my latest school assignment. Happy times! Also, I wanted to wish all of my american friends a very happy July 4th. I hope you all have a great day!

Thanks for stopping by. See you soon :)

Sending my love

Today I’ve got some more inspiration using the Pen Pals collection from Pink Paislee. Usually I blog for DESIGN in PAPERS on Wednesdays but switched days. So, no post on wednesday but next week I'll be back to my usual schedual. I made two cards using stamps and ephemera. I love the stamp sets to Pen Pals and Hello Sunshine that comes with dies for the large images. No more fussy cutting! If you want to find out more about these card please visit DESIGN in PAPERS.

I think they both turned out very pretty. That type writer is so cute! i embossed it in whinte and painted it with water colors.

Thank you for stopping by today. Tomorrow I'll be back with my solo post for ABNH, see you then I hope :)

Be strong, brave and creative

This is my creation for En liten butik this week. I got all sorts of cool product in my kit and felt like playing. I love the stamp called Pointing Midge, she looks like she is saying something important. So it started out as some kind of art journaling and ended up being a card.

I’m happy with how it turned out, it’s kind of odd :) I need to tell you about the stamp too. I got published in the latest issue of Inzpira Magazine (one day I’ll show you all my publicated projects, I just haven’t gotten to it yet) and on my projects I used Hero Arts stamps. Did you know that Hero Arts has a great publications incentive program? I got to pick products for $75 for my three projects, can you believe that??? I was so happy! Here is a shot of my products, and the little you’re awesome-stamp was in one of the sets. Isn’t it just perfect?!
