Special Delivery from Heaven ♥

Hi there! 

I am back with a baby card this time. And I made a criss cross card for a little baby girl.

I have used the beautiful Magnolia stamp called Special Delivery from Heaven, both the mini stamp and the original sized stamp.

And I have used the Castle die on my card. It is such a fantastic die, perfect for little princes or princesses!

Under you can see the small stamp used too. On the card which you can write a greeting on.

 I have used Distress ink for colouring as usual.

The papers are from Maja Design, and the Vintage Spring Basics Collection.

I wish you a wonderful day filled with happiness!

And thank you for the lovely comments you leave on my blog.

You make my day!

Hugs, Camilla

Shaker cards - Tilda catching stars ♥

This week's theme at the MDUC is one of my favourite card-theme to make: 

SHAKER CARD!!

And I have, as you see above, made a matching set with Tilda catching stars from 

Magnolia's Prince & Princesses Collection 2012. In normal size and with the mini stamp.

She is really one of my all time favourite Tilda's, and I was so happy when I recived this in a mini version from my dear friend Camilla this summer. 

And when this challenge came up, I knew she would be perfect for it!:)

Camilla also made an awesome tutorial for Shaker cards, you can watch it HERE.

The largest card is a regular 15x15 cm card. 

And I have used the new gorgeous Christmas papers from Magnolia for both cards.

The Holy Script, and the mini sheet called Angels Calling.

The tag is made with a DooHickey from Magnolia called Tilda Tag.

The beautiful charm was a gift from my dear friend Audhild.

Beautiful paper roses from Wild Orchid Crafts.

I have used my new Dabber on them, called Pearl. Thats the white you can see on the flowers.
I have also put on some Sticklers-Star Dust.
The leaves are made with a DooHickey strawberry die.

The beautiful lace is from Kort & Godt.
The post stamp is also from Kort & Godt.
The texts to the right on both cards are from Magnolia.

Inside the shaker card I have put some glitter, and used gelatin as "window".

And here is the mini-card. It measures 11x11 cm.

And here I have put a lovely heart doily behind the box.

I use brush size 0 and 00, and the paper I use is called Langton, 

and you can get it in Hjerteboden.
I have colored the image with Distress Ink, re-inkers.

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, the cheeks are coloured with a mix of Tattered Rose and Aged Mahogany. 

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

The pink/purple color : A mix with Victorian Velvet, Dusty Concord, Tattered Rose, Weathered Wood, I have also used Black Soot on the darkest spots.

Please visit the MDUC blog to have a look at the amazing Shaker Cards from my team mates!!

Have a great evening!

Welcome Lillemor & Camilla ♥

The last days I have been so lucky to have the two most wonderful ladies visiting.

As a small welcome gift I made two Welcome-tags to them.

I have used the two mini stamps from Magnolia's last collection called Turning Leaves.

Here is my tag to Lillemor. 

The image for her tag is called Tilda with Daisys and Mushrooms.

Under is my tag to Camilla.

The image is called Scooter Tilda.

I have put the image inside a shaker box I made.

The few days together with my DT-friends in Magnolia have been like a fairy tale:)

I love being with them, and we spent most of our time crafting. 

My two friends Janne and Audhild also joined us.

You might think I made a lot of cards these days, 

but NO...:) But I have manage to color up some of the new Magnolia stamps,

and will make something with them to show here soon:)

I will also show you some photos from the visit!

Thank you so much for the wonderful visit Lillemor and Camilla, these days were very special to me, and I hope we will meet again soon.

Take care & thank you so much for visiting my blog.

Decorated flower jars

Hi! Today I will show you two jars I have decorated.

To organize my flowers I put them in jars from Ikea. But lately I have made a mess, and have mixed flowers in every jar. So now I will try to divide them by color. 

And today I will show you the two first I have made.

(Rosa-Pink and Blå-blue.)

I have used corrugated paper as a base, and then decorated the front, like a jam label:)

For both the jars I have used the lovely papers from the Ska vi ta en Fika Collection. 

Lets first take a closer look at the jar for my pink flowers.

Here I have used the beautiful pattern paper called Cheesecake.

Here are some closeups: the cute stamp is a mini stamp from Magnolia, called Cupido;)

For the blue one I have used the gorgeous paper called Blåbärsylt. I have used both sides of the paper on the label.

Also here I have used a mini stamp from Magnolia, Blueberry Tilda of course:) 

The letters are Thickers from American Crafts.

Thank you so much for visiting!

Magnolia's Advent Calendar #Day 13

*** I have now drawn a winner of a Christmas Present from Magnolia ***

Hi!

I hope you are enjoing Magnolia's magical Advent Calendar.

There has been so much fantastic inspiration from the Magnolia Design Team, 

and we are not halfway yet.

You have the chance to win lots of fantastic prizes from
Magnolia every day throughout the whole month. 

Today is my day to host the
Magnolia Advent Calendar.

And I have made something special for you:)

I will show you a lot of photos, 

and I hope you will enjoy my post.

Here comes my 

Stationary Box
made especially for the Magnolia advent calendar

(The tutorial for the box is made by Dannie.)

♥♥♥

I really enjoyed to make this box. It was fast and easy.
But it was the decorations and to make all inside that took some time:)
Under is a close up of the front of the box.
I have used this cute Tilda stamp called Tilda hiding gift.
Behind her is the Dream Tag - which is made with a DooHickey die.
I have stamped the text "Sweet Christmas Dreams" on the tag, together with some snowflakes (Sweet Snowflakes), all from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection 2011.

As you can see under, I have decorated the top.
The blue swirls are from the Magnolia shop in Borås, Sweden.
Under them you can see that I have fastened the Heart Swirl (Doo Hickey die).

 Lets take the cover off!

 Here is a peek of whats inside:)

I have made folders for small cards (7,5x7,5 cm), tags and ordinary cards (15x15 cm).

Here sits Tilda with Crosstiched Heart wishing you Merry X-mas!

Under you can see all the small card lined up for you. 

I have used the Magnolia Mini stamps to decorate them with.

From the left you have: Star Tilda, Tilda with Snowheart, Halo Tilda and Winter Tilda.

I have also used some DooHickeys called Spruce, Hellebores and Poinsettia for decoratons.

The circles are made with Spellbinders Circle dies.

 Here are some tags I made. I have used the DooHickey die called Vintage Tag.
Also here I have stamped on some of the super cute Mini Magnolias.
Tilda with Hellebores, A little Gift Tilda and Ice Tilda.

  For this matching set I made two ordinary shaped cards.
Here is the first one:

 It is Tilda with Snowheart. And I have masked her toghether with a text from an older collection from Magnolia.
So sweet isn't she;)

 Under I have used the Star Tag (DooHickey) and put it behind the image. It is not fasten, so you can pull it out. It is painted with Crackel Paint-Picket Fence, on that I have fastened some Making Memories stickers, added some walnut stain ink, and painted over with Crackel Paint-Rock Candy.

 Some close ups:)

 Here I have fastened some Hydrangea flowers with a pearl in the middle. And some more Heart Swirls (DooHickey) under them. The pearls I often use come from KaiserCrafts.

Here is my second card with sweet Halo Tilda.

It is basically made the same way as the one above.

There are only a few differences.

 Also she is masked together with the text from an older collection.
I think adding some Stickles to the text looks nice.

 And a Star Tag here aswell.

 But also another tag;)

 Surprise! Mini Halo Tilda says hello:)
She wears a blue dress, and "big" Halo Tilda has a beige one.

Pakkelapper ♥

Vi i Hjerteboden's Juleblogg har valgt oss pakkelapper som fellesprosjekt for november!

Og her kommer mine...

Det ble litt i hurten og sturten, 

så jeg tror jeg skal lage noen flere senere med litt mer pynt på!

Men ta turen innom Julebloggen, for der er det mange utrolig flotte pakkelapper fra de andre!!

Det ble to i denne omgang. Så mangler det bare "til" og "fra", og så gavene da. 

Har i motsetning til de andre ikke begynt for alvor med julehandelen...

Stemplene er fra Magnolia, og mini Star Tilda er kjøpt i Borås i høst.

Hjerteboden får snart inn mange mini stempler med de nye julestemplene i butikken,

så da må jeg nok lage noen fler;)

♥♥♥

Tusen takk for at du besøker bloggen min!
