DIY "washi tape phone case"

Hello hello,

Fat Mum Slim has a challenge called "photo a day". Every month she publish a list of things or emotions and then we in the group take a photo of that and post it to a social media of your choice. Day 4 of august (okey, posting a little late, i know) was "DIY". And I posted this photo of my phone case.

It is originally white (and slippery). So I took it apart and dressed it with washi tape from My Mind's Eye. I really like the result and I can change it when it's worn out or I want another "design".

Piece of cake! :)

Have a nice day!

"Mormor och jag" - MME June sketch challenge

Hello hello,

My grandma means a lot to me. Therefore I made this layout about us. She is now 95 or 96 years old and still goes dancing every now and then. Her hearing isn't the best (but that's life) but she's always with us on outings and parties. And she still lives alone in her apartment since my grandpa died.

I just love her!

On the layout I've used lots of yellow mist along with hearts and papers from American Crafts collection "Plus one" and My Mind's Eye "Chalked" collection.  I also sew some small trees as well for deco. I've used the sketch from My Mind's Eye June sketch challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

"Go your own direction" w/ CS sketch #254

Happy Monday!

And it's here again - Monday. Today I'm sharing another layout created using sketch #254 from Creative Scrappers. Again, I've used MME's line Cut & Paste along with stamps and chipboard stickers from Basic Grey and Pink Paisley.

The text on the photo says: "It is easy to stand with the crowd, It takes courage to stand alone" - which I think is hard at the age of 9 or growing up nowadays. The photo is of my youngest niece.

At the same time as going your own way, you should make sure you enjoy the journey as well, somehow.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Surprice! Layout w/ CS Sketch #256

Happy 2nd Advent!

The snow came and went...

This layout was supposed to me in the competition over at Creative Scrappers. Buuut, since I'm a bit slow on the photographing my creations and due to the fact that I didn't have Internet for 4 days, I couldn't upload it. Too bad for me, but I'm showing it to you now!

I've used papers from MME's Cut & Paste line and Chalk line.

My bf took this lovely photo.

Almost all the little chipboard stickers are from Basic Grey (the title as well).

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a nice evening!

New Bike - MME Cut & Paste

Hey there!

I'm having a lovely weekend; my oldest niece is here and we have been watching movies, played cards and just spent time together. And I just saw her wishlist for Christmas - and she wishes for a camera (the big ones) among other things. She's 11. The youth is growing up waaay to fast!

This layout is called "New bike". She got it when she turned six. I've used papers from MME's new collection Cut & Paste. The letters are from Theresa Collins.

Here you can see the washi tape behind the arrows.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

"Herr & Fru" with My Mind's Eye "All is bright"

Good day!

Today I want to show that themed collections like the "All is bright" collection from MME also works with not only summer photos, but also with wedding photos. My best friend got married last year and I had gotten the honour of taking the official wedding photos (YAY!). My Silhouette go to do some work here as well, I cut out the & in white cardstock with it. After that I adhered washi tape to it and cut off the access.

The title says "Herr & Fru" ("Husband & Wife"). As a little cluster I used some decorations from both MME, Teresa Collins and some things from my own stash.

I think these to just speaks for it selfes. :) 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a nice Sunday!

"Life Captured" & "10+1=elva"

Hello there!

I've got more layouts to share! The first one is created using a sketch from Silhouette. Instead of two stripes at the bottom I used another cut file from Silhouette, a wave. All the papers are My Mind's Eye; Miss Caroline and background paper is from the All is bright collection.

Quite a simple layout, but still cute. I've put some cut out hearts in the waves and painted the edges with pink acrylic paint.

The title says "Life Captured" and the photo is of my nieces last Christmas at Teneriffe, Spain. We went to a water park - which was so much fun.

On my second layout I tried to use mostly squares and create a grid. It's about my oldest niece who turned 11 this year. The title says "10+1=elva (eleven)".  The papers are from BoBunny's Vicki B. collection.

I still haven't written anything yet. I'm bad at that, especially when I don't really know what to write. 

For the title I've used four different types of Thickers. The big pink flower is created with pink washi tape and purple/pink ribbon and a big pearl from Prima.

Thanks for stopping by!

Card - Congratulations

Hello there!

Hope eveeryone had a nice weekend - I sure did; I went to and amusement park, Liseberg, with part of my family and we hab beautiful weather all day and the longest we stood in line for the attractions were 5 minutes! Since it was my mom's birthday on saturday (and mine is on wednesday) we celebrated it together with a big party - a really nice evening with super nice gifts!

It is not that common that I create cards. And when I do create cards I usually sit down the night before or the same day that I'm gonna give it away. Therefore it really needs to be quick and not think to much.

I noticed that My Mind's Eye chipboards fitted nicely together with this peacock feather paper. The small flower and brad come from my stash.

Here you can see the card from the side and a bit how it's folded. 

When it's opend it looks like this. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Adore - My Mind's Eye

Hello!

Today I'm sharing an My Mind's Eye layout paired with flowers from Prima and my stash along with some hearts like the ones I used for my previous layout. 

For the title I used glitter golden thickers and some washi tape behind. 

My Silhouette got to work some here as well: I cut out the pin wheel and the border with it. 

Thanks for stopping by!

"Come, give me a kiss" - My Mind's Eye

Hello!

All of us have their favorite manufactors when it comes to paper. One of mine is My Mind's Eye. Here I created a layout with photos of my sister and her husband when we all went to Teneriffa over Christmas 2012. 

With my Silhouette I cut out a bunch of small hearts in different sizes and put them on top of each other. Some of them i also put glitter on. I almost always save my scraps, and this time I found a way to use the part from the cut outs. 

Here's also a little cut out shape with lots of hearts - super cute!

Thanks for stopping by!

CS #233 En av de bästa

Another layout created with a sketch from Creative Scrappers, #233. It's about my mom, "One of the best". Only MME papers and I've used my Silhouette to cut the scalloped edges and the left overs turned into accordion flowers.

Creative Scrappers #229

I really enjoy the sketches and inspiration that Creative Scrappers provide. Here I made a layout about my youngest niece as she blows out the candles. I've combined papers from MME, Crate Paper and My Little Shoebox on and the sketch #229 from CS.

Enjoying family and friends

Yesterday was spent at Liseberg, Gothenburg, with my nieces and their grandma. We had a hot summer day and a lot of fun. I even won some candy, which I usually never do! And this was the 2nd time to Liseberg this summer, one more time than normally :P

Anyway, last weekend I had my first wedding photography session, and it was for my best friend. I think it went well, but I'm my own worst critic, hehe.

Aaand: my mojo is back! :) see a sample further down. Two layouts made of My mind's eye paper, lost and found 2 sunshine.
