I've gone from Swedish to English.

Christmas card in pink

Hello!
Last week at the university has been both hectic and wonderful - but now it's done. Feels fabulous!

With less than a week util Christmas I thought I might finish up my Christmas cards, here with a card in pink.


I've used papers from scrapbooking4you, swirl stamp with black soot from distress ink in which I've added black glitter (I've also distressed all edges in black soot), Penny Black stamp, text stamp from LOTV and the rest are from stash.

Challenges:
A Spoon Full Of Sugar - Christmas card
Creative Card Crew - Anything goes
Allsorts - Anything goes
Cupcake Craft Challenge - Non-traditional Christmas
Penny's Challenge - Merry Christmas
A Gem Of A Challenge - Sketch + distressing
Penny Black at Allsorts - Beauty in the eye of the beholder
SFTW - Christmas

Hope you've found some inspiration.

UK and new inspiration

Hello!
I'm back from both a tough and intensive time with work, school, a really back cold and UK. My travel went to London - and I loved it! The end.

Looking forward to a scrap event here in town this Saturday, which means more inspiration coming up here on the blog.

Until then I give you this piece:



It's a bracelet made with a simplified love-knot. It's was made for the fall competition at Pearlized.

Feel the inspiration!
