So glad you stopped by! You know the saying that practice makes perfect? Well, with this blog I'm chronicling my journey to reaching 10 000 hours (the amount needed to learn a new skill well) at card crafting. And yes, I'm enjoying the process :)

Sinisiä fiiliksiä
Värimaailma tähän korttiin tuli Paperillan korttihaasteesta #5, mutta en tosin pystynyt olla käyttämättä kuviopapereita :) Luonnos on Sweet Sketch Wednesday:n.

Casing it
Polkadoodles casing it challenge inspired me to create this card as inspired by this gorgeous one over at Pöydän Kulma. Just the other day I purchased these lovely images that are in the same series, and then I basically copied the elements of the card: composition, and e.g. the flower. The only thing I added was some liquid pearls just to get a few more green elements. The end result isn't as great as the original, but it is meant as an hommage. I'm also participating in Southern Girls (Sparkle and Shine) and Simon Says Wednesday (ATG).

Med körsbär som pricken på i:et

Ballonger på födelsedagen
Ute snöar det men jag känner just nu mest för att pyssla med glada vårfärger, kanske knapparna i ljuvliga karamell-färger jag köpte i går hjälper till med att fixa stämningen?

Fun in the snow
This Bugaboo freebie from last year is very cute, and the DT work was inspirational, especially this card that inspired me to use the image twice. However, when positioning them, it despite my initial thought, looked better to have them slightly apart riding down the slopes.
I'm participating in the following challenges: Great Impressions (Snow Friends), Cupcake Inspirations (Snow Friends + colors), Glitter'n'Sparkle (Include some pink), Sweet Stamps (Winter Blues), Crafty Catz (Polka Dots), Love to Create (Snowflakes) and Suzy Bee (ATG w/ twist fun in the snow).

Jag tycker Bugaboos superhjälte är härlig, även om min femåring tycker att det inte är en mantel utan eld han har bakom sig - kanske det är därför han har sådan fart?

Grattis till en Cowboy!
Jag använde mig av skissen på Friday Sketch, men det höll på att gå tokigt då jag glömde lägga in bandet som jag tänkt mig var knapparna är. Men tur nog kom jag på det här alternativet :)
Jag deltar i: Kraftin' Kimmie (Happy Birthday), Papertake Weekly (ATG), Love to Create (ATG), Creative Card Crew (For a Child) och Crafting by Designs (ATG).

P*skarteluhaasteeseen #260 mukaan kalenterisivulla
P*skarteluhaasteessa on tarjolla luonnos tällä kertaa, ja se pääsi pohjaksi huhtikuun kalenterisivulle. Valitsin Meljen'sin kuvan ja Lidlin ihana paperi, ajatuksena sanonta "April showers bring May flowers". Noh, vaihtoehtoisesti tietysti pääsiäispupu olisi voinut päästä pääosaan :) Kalenteripohja olen muuten napannut täältä, latasin sen exceliin missä käänsin kuukaudet ruotsiksi - koska mistään en löytänyt yhtä hyvää pohjaa, tai oikeastaan edes mitään pohjaa, joka olisi suomenruotsalaiselle sopiva, ts ruotsiksi suomalaisilla pyhillä :)

Halloween - November
You know how you're suddenly inspired by something completely out of the blue?

January 2015 - Happy New Year!
Finally as January is well under way, I managed to finish my calender page for this month - but as I plan to have it on display for the whole year, it doesn't really matter :)
I'm participating in several challenges with a Something New theme, which for me is New Year (and that Happy New Year text die has only been used once or twice before Christmas): Gem of a Challenge, Inky Impressions, Crafter's Café, I love Promarkers (New Beginnings), and also the ATG challenges over at Kraftin' Kimmie, TTCRD, Penny's and Catch the Bug.

Pingvinkul i februari
Jag håller på med min kalender (eller rättare sagt kalendrar, för jag gör två) med flera månader parallellt, men nu är mitt problem att det finns färre månader än ideer :)

Hurra för 14-åringen!
Under julhelgen bläddrade jag i gamla pysseltidningar och blev inspirerad till detta kort - jag tyckte det var en skojig ide med spelkort som blev den rätta födelsedagssiffran, och så fick jag använda min nya födelsedagsstans för första gången - men eftersom den var lite för bred klippte jag av hatten som fick platsa separat bredvid texten.
Jag deltar i förljande utmaningar: Simon Says Wednesday (ATG), Glitter'nSparkle (ATG), Dies R Us (ATG w/ twist: and my new thing is the birthday die), Artistic Inspirations (ATG w/ twist of new), ABC (A is for Anything Goes) och Incy WIncy (Use a Number).

Kalenderprojektet framskrider...
Idag var det oktober månad som inspirerade, skissen är från Sketch Saturday med flera tillagda element som igen var inspirerade av Passion for Promarker (Bingo: Ribbon - Die Cut - Buttons). Färgerna kom från temat på Winter Wonderland (Fave color combo: brown and turquoise). Jag deltar också i: Cute Card Thursday (ATG), Simon Says Wednesday (ATG) och Meljen's (ATG).

Kalender

Jag deltar i Passion for Promarker (Bingo: Ribbon - Die Cut - Buttons), Paper Nest Dolls (ATG), Tuesday Morning Sketches (ATG - challenge yourself: My challenge is to make my first calender for myself, and I'm approaching the months in inspiration order), I love Promarkers (ATG), Simon Says Wednesday (ATG), Penny's (ATG), Glitter'nSparkle (ATG) och Cute Card Thursday (ATG).
