No project today just a quick update before I and Britta head off to Bollebygd. So I was at my chiropractor at 8:20 and lets just say I will go back on Friday.... It turns out that falling of horses is not good for your back, how know? Well any way on my way home I stopped at the supermarket to pick up some important stuff before we go.

As you can see all very necessary things. There is some baby-wipes to have on my desk. Some glitter and rhinestones, I don´t think I need explaining that. Gold and silver pens and a magazine, I hardly ever buy them but this one seems to be right up my ally. The gums are for me and the Rollinis are for Britta. I allso got some shampoo, wonder where I put that?

So to finish this off, I hope you´ll have a great week and I´ll be back on Thursday. And if you miss my to much then hop on over to youtube Here and check out my first video ;)

Guess what! I did another card... I know it´s chocking ;) But that´s not all, the papers that I used is from panduros "Sweet Christmas". I just love this papers and I have used then quite alot. So today I made a shabby chic card with a magnolia stamp, Tilda holding a rose. This stamps is older and I´m not sure that name it has but if you know just leave a comment :)

So distressed is the word of the day and almost all products are from panduro. 

 The flowers where white but with a light mist changed that. The blue roses

I just dipped in the bottle... I know I´m such a rebel X)

 Tilda is colored with distress ink and I´m trying out a new way to do her

checks. So it´s worn lipstick that is really blended and I´m loving it so I sticking with this.

Curled stems and vintage buttons, you know the drill. 

 Some fran-tage around the image and don´t forget the lace, I almost did...

An old pearl thing get to finish of the photos of this card.

This card is in the challenge over at Tildas town

Here are some more projects using that paper line:

I have made a layout, it has been ages sens I´ve done a layout. But now I´ve been playing around with the "sweet christmas" from Panduro and the more I use it the more I love it.

On this layout I´ve use the panel page and colors in pink and lilac. In the panels I put some panduro washi tape and I use cut-outs from the stack as embellishments. The buttons are vintage from my grans sewing box mixed with finds of my own.

 The bigger flowers are old ones from Prima, the big pink one I did out of some white fabric and sprayed with a pink perfect pearl. Then I have some smaller lily's and leafs. The pearl swirls are one of my favorite and I just cut them up so they fit.

 Here are some of the cut-outs. I just distressed the tags and put them on this pear shaped safety-pin.

 Another cut-out becomes a mat for the title. Can I say it to much, that I love my dymo!

 Jet another cut-out, they are just so pretty!

 My Sweetheart, Britta, she is really cheeky this one.

  I´m so in love with this shabby chic layout that I don´t want to put it away, will have to find a place for it so that I can see it!

If yesterdays card was shabby chic, today's card is defiantly vintage.

The flowers and buttons are all old stuff I´ve dug up from my draws. 

But the the flowers made from book-pages I made just now, they are a bit tricky to

make, though the old paper easily torn. 

 This Tilda is colored with distress ink and I had to have some fran-tage, this time in shabby blue.
The smaller roses was originally white but I just dipped them in my glimmer mist. The blue one is a mix I´ve made myself and the brown is from Lindy´s stampgang. This is a very easy way to get the color you want.

I hope you´ll have a great week and I´ll be back on Friday

So I know that I shouldn´t but I did go to Panduro to check out the sale... Do I need to say more? Well I found this paper pad from Panduros Tilda brand called "Sweet Christmas" and I just love it. So I have been playing with it and the best thing is that it´s not a purely Christmas pad. You can use it for allot of things like a winter card:








I took one pattern paper and then I used the die-cut sheet for the mat and the tag.

 Some pink flower to lift the grays. The book-page pebble I have made my self.

 This mermaid I one of my favorite! This one is one of thous that I took to my gran and tried some different distress ink coloring. I´m really liking the result but I couldn´t resist the shabby white fran-tage...

  I must say that i´m in love with this card and I woundn´t mind getting this on my birthday ;)

Making resins are so much fun and finding new ways to color them! Check out my post on how I make resins using the mod podge mold:  Here.

But today Is all about what to do with them when they are finished.

 1. Glitter glue

 2. Mists with glimmer

 3. Nailpolish

 4. Acrylic paint

 5. Pearlpaint

As I said before, I have tried with embossing but the resin melts before the powder thous. But that can be because that my heat gun is a industrial and not for crafting...

Hello! I´m back!  And I have a project to show you and that is this years yearbook. I did do one last year : Here. Last year I though I would use it every year but I did a new one with my favorite paper line from 2013, it´s the Circus from Panduro.

 To do this book you´ll need 6 12*12 papers that are bit heavier. Fold the paper in half. Then open it up and fold it at the other way about 4" down. Then you´ll have one page with two pockets. My book is about 6*8" and the pages is put in with tough of the colors after the months.

The book I put together with black organza trough eyelets. I didn´t decorate very much just washitape and a dymo for the months. So the lace tape is over the pocket edge and the book tape is underneath the dymo.

Now just put the book together and start to fill with memory's. Here is my first of the year from My Dog.

Love Julia
