:: Inkido layout and a card ::

Here comes my two last projects for Inkido in May! In June there will be more projects with the new wonderful collection! For my layout I have used the OUAS sketch with the extra challenge of using numbers. I have my journaling behind the tags. We are three in hour little family and this is what the journaling is about. OUAS and Berry71Bleu are teaming up in May so I have also used Chipboards for Berry71Bleus challenge. Phuuuuh I hope I got it all right now ;)

This photo is taken at Fjärilshuset. So pretty and cute when the Butterflies are eating!

I think this colors are really cool together.

First I punched out a doily in a orange paper then a Butterfly in a lighter paper and last some fussy cutting.

I misted flowers from Inkido in a dark brown color. On the backgrouns I have used a stencil from Prima and two different stamps from Inkido. I used both orange and brown inkpad.

You can see the stamped Butterflies here.

Next project is a card created efter Agnieszkas challenge for May at Inkido. I have used a birdcage and birds. This card is created with the new paper collection! And WOW I will start cry when I´m out of papers! They are gorgeous every one of the papers!

The flowers are all from Inkido and fits so nice to the papers. 

Pretty! Inside of the card I made a pocket for money or a gift certificates.

:: Retirement card for a man ::

Sometimes it can be a bit difficult to make cards for men. But I think you can have flowers on those cards also. Maybe I won´t use pink but often it is the colormix that makes it work.

On this Retirement card I have used flowers and a stamp from Strömstad Scrapbooking.

:: Sometimes dreams do come true ::

This month I just loved Hobbyworlds challenge. It was to use green and purple together with flowers! Like music in my ears! 

My page is about how I finally have five Hydrangeas in my garden!

It counts even if the dreams are small when they come true!

Flowers from Prima, Petaloo and Magnolia. The cute bird just landed :) First I used the white wash technique and then I used a stencil from Prima. I misted my doilies green.

I just love working with this colors! It´s even more fun because almost all of my flowers in my garden are white and purple!

:: Eurovision Song Contest challenge ::

At Stämpelfabriken I found a very fun and inspirational challenge! Every year Europe comes together for a huge song contest! Last year Sweden won so we hosted the event this year. The slogan for this year is "WE ARE ONE" and I also really like the Butterfly that is the logo for the event this year.

The Challenge was to be inspired by one of several pictures/artists at Stämpelfarbrikens blog. The boy who won and  represent Sweden is just fantastic but I found my inspiration from the young boy who came second when Sweden held their finals. He is just seventeen and  a huge star in Japan! He has his very unique, brave and very bold style and that I admire! His name is Yohio! My boy really like him! You can be and look however you want as long as you are a good person! So Yohio is my inspiration for my layout. This is how he looks.

This fantastic prize is what the winner gets from Stämpelfabriken!

I hope you can see were I found my inspiration! I used the pink and white for my color scheme with a little black for contrast. The brown is from Yohios eye color.

As a mother it´s so important to make my boy feel that he is great just as he is. Both soft and tough sides are welcome!

Yohio has a lot of bling on his costumes so of course I used that ;)

The Butterfly from the contests logo fitted nice here!

Lot´s of texture and layers. I used a heart stencil with some texture paste in the bottom and then played with acrylic paint, liquid acrylic and stamps.

The flowers represent Yohios feminine style and also my boys interest for smelling them!

And last I wanted to have the slogan from the contest on my page. I just love my country after yesterdays huge final! We are a country that allows people be who they are and love who they want to! That makes me very proud!!!! In Sweden the fathers stay at home half the time when the children are small and are as important as the mothers! WE ARE ONE!

I love the colors and quality of Papirdesign flowers. The grey ones are one of my favorites because they are so pretty to mix with other colors and have a nice shape.

:: Easelcard ::

I´m often a bit lazy when it comes to make cards ;) I love all that complicated folding others do but I´m often just do a ordinary fold myself. But not today! I wanted to do a Easel card in a label shape. And man that was a bit harder than I thouht! However I loooove how it turned out! Hope you do to!

I have used papers from Maja Design. The stamp and large pink flowers are from Magnolia.

A cute key with a bow!

Scraplagret has a huge amont of nice flowers!

Sparkle!

And this is how it looks when you open the card.

The banner says "I´m so happy that you are my friend".

Today I have a layout created after Sketchabilities sketch number 90 to show you!

Lot´s of layers with flowers, ribbon and chipboards.

Here you can se the stickers in brown. You can buy them in every color you ever dremt of! I love that I never need to paint any dots on Å, Ä and Ö.
