:: Christmas Cards with Hänglar & Stänglar plus Snowy ::

Sorry for being missing in action from my blog! If you follow my Instagram you have  already seen all my Christmas Cards. But in my blog you also get all supplies and more detail photos. For some days forward I will upload all  Christmas cards in my blog. The snowflakes are made with Martha Stewart punches. Rhinestones from You Do.

Here I used a stamp from Hänglar & Stänglar 2008. She is colored with my Copics. I also used Lawn Fawn Perfectlyplaid Christmas 6x6. I used a frame die from My Favorite Things called Stitched Scalloped Rectangle. And from Lawn Fawn I used Stitched Rectangle Frame Large and Scalloped Rectangles Frames. 

This cutie is a stamp from Hänglar & Stänglar 2005. Colored with my Copics. All frame dies from Lawn Fawn. I used Stitched Rectangles Small and Large and also Say Cheese Again. The patterned paper is from Maja Design Christmas Season 6x6.

 Last in this post is a favorite called Snowy from Penny Black. Colored with my Copics. The circle frame is from My Favorite Things Die-Namics and called Merry Christmas Circle Frame. The white frame is created with Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangles. Patterned papers from Lawn Fawn Peace Joy Love 6x6 paper pad. Welcome back tomorrow for more inspiration!

:: Happy Birthday Card ::

It feels like it was ages ago I created a card with a stamped image on! And even longer since I used my beloved stamps from Hänglar and Stänglar. So finally here is one card!

 I used a cute stamp from the 2006 Autumn club set. To get a polkadot dress I used my Misti and stamped the image one more time on a patterned paper from Papirdesign.

 I colored my image with my Copics. My flowers are from Prima Marketing, Petaloo, Wild Orchid Crafts and I am Roses.

 I think it´s really fun that you can buy chipboards from Wycinanka with Swedish words!

 The dies I used are Spellbinders Nestabilities Petit Ovals Small, Spellbinders Nestabilities Petit Scalloped Ovals Small, Spellbinders Nestabilities Floral Ovals and Spellbinders Borderabilities Curved Border Two. The papers I used are Pion Design A Day in May Beige Ornament, Papirdesign Forventning Vakre Blomster och Maja Design Summer Crush He Gives Her Flowers. I also used my sewing machine around the edges.

For my title I used a chipboard sentiment from Wycinanka. I used Prima Metallique Wax Bronze Age to get a bit more brown color. Then I added one coat of clear Ranger Embossing Powder. Last I added a tiny tint bit of loose glitter from Finnabair.

:: ATC - swap Hänglar & Stänglar ::

I´m in a ATC swap group with only images from Hänglar and Stänglar. This month we had a male theme. I dont have a lot of stamps with men or boys so I used my Bull stamp.

It´s a bit difficult to embellish when my stamp cover almost the whole ATC. So I came up with the nose ring idea. I think that´s kind a cute!

I used a die from Lawn Fawn to make the grass background and I also used a Butterfly punch from Martha Stewart called Classic Butterfly. I used some Distress Ink mini pad on the grass and added some Stickles on the Butterflies. Simple but cute ATC´s.

:: ATC swap Hänglar & Stänglar ::

I made this edition with ATC´s for a group swap with friendes. The theme was Hänglar and Stänglar. It´s a stamp brand that now is retired. I love my stamp collection I own from this brand!

I started with only stamping the head of this cutie. Then I colored all my nine heads with Copics.

For my background I used wrapping paper you get from the flowers shops when you buy flowers. This one had old photos and text all in black and white. I dripped and sprinkled green Acrylic Paint.

Then I layered lots of fun stuff as feathers, cheese cloth and lace.

From the same flower wrapping paper I made wings. I also added white flowers from Prima, glass beads from Panduro and lots of glitter.

:: The making of all Christmas cards begin ::

 I bought the amazing Misti stamping tool and finally I´m back using rubber stamps! Now I get a perfect print every time! I have a really nice collection of stamps from Hänglar and Stänglar. Here I have used two of  my Christmas stamps. It´s a bit sad that the brand no longer make new stamps.

My cards are really cleand and simple with focus at the image. On the first card I used papers from Maja Design I Wish collection and on the second card I used paper from Echo Park I love winter. I coolored the stamps with my Copics . I have used dies from Lawn Fawn and My Favorite Things. 

:: SWE card week 46 ::

This weeks challenge at SWE Scrapbook is to only use Cardstock. 

I used dies from Lawn Fawn as snow, Frame, Trees and Snowman from Marianne Design, I also used two different Embossing folders from Sizzix for the sky and trees. On top of the Trees I used a star from Fiskars and a Snowflake from Carl. I also added Stickles on the dots. I colored my Snowman with Copics. My sentiment stamp is from Hänglar and Stänglar.

A bit whimsical and fun card!

:: SWE card week 32 ::

This week we had a color challenge at SWE Scrapbook. The colors to follow was tomato red, yellow and green. A really hard color combination!

I used one of my very first stamps from Hänglar and Stänglar. I´m so happy that I own some of them!

I felt the image and colors was so strong so I skipped the embellishments this time.
