Some scrappy love :)

Just wanted to share some layouts I've made the last couple of days now, just before I'm off to NY.

Have you seen the old pictures above..

I found this in a box in the attic.

WOW! Can't believe these pictures are from 1917!!

My grand father obviously had a camera in the very early days, and took alot of very unique, candid shots. Finding all these old pictures, "just like that", made me over the moon happy....and I just needed to create.

This paper from sassafras was a perfect match. :)

Some really good memories.

Yes, I know I have scrapped this picture before....I just love this picture, and can't seem to scrap it too many times....LOL

A couple of cards.
Had so much fun creating these.
The card above are created with the new CosmoCricket UPcycle. :)


Have a great weekend!!!

LO and card

I'm really enjoying this easter break.

We decided to stay at home this year.The weather here in Oslo is - well - not very nice - rain, rain, rain.

But - perfect to stay indoor and do crafty stuff :) :)

I made this LO with SOL from her 8th birthday.

Used the colorful happy "garden variety" line by Cosmo Cricket along with some tags from 3ndypapir "secret garden" "markedsdag".

P K Glitz is having a bloghop today, and the my Stamp BOX-blog are one of the blogs in this hop.

I created this card for the bloghop, using some of my favorite mSB-stamps and some glittery goodness from PKGlitz.

Join the bloghop today for your chance to win a wonderful prize and some smaller prizes along the hop :)

I had so much fun making this card. It is actually a lift of a beautiful card made by AmyH (Paushdesign). You can find her card and more of her beautiful creations in her 2peas-gallery.

Thanks for the inspo Amy!

Have a wonderful Easter.

and thanks for popping by!

Easter inspiration :)

Hi my friends, and happy inspiration monday. :)

I have made some cute little greeting-cards, and a tiny little chocolate-gift today.

Easter is just around the corner, and I guess friends and family will love to get a little card or some sweets to remind them we are thinking of them even if we are miles and miles apart.

:)

I have dressed up a little chocolate.

This chocolate is a typical norwegian chocolate, and most of us are thinking of cross country skiing, snowy mountains, oranges and hot cocoa when we see this chocolate.

Well for us norwegians, a perfect choice for easter. :)

I have dressed mine up a little bit, to make it more festive.

:)

For this project I've used

white cardstock

a scallop border-punch

a round and a scallop round ( 2 1/2 and 3 inch) punch

ribbon and green leaves and paper-flowers to mebellish

3ndypapir "secret garden" collection patterned paper

and a scan of an old easter postcard.

(You can download the images I have used for my projects by clicking on the images in this post and save. )

These images are for personal use only!!!

I punched a circle out of the bunny-card and a round scallop of the white cardstock.

Attached the round card to the scallop background and drawed around the circles and scallops with my favorite brown pen.

Cut a piece of white cardstock that will fit as a "coat" around the chocolate.

Adorned the edges of my cardstock with my scallop-punch.

Cut two pieces of patterned paper to put on top of the white cardstock-"coat".

The red patterned paper is just to add a little red border on each side of the lighter patterned paper.

Attach the patterned paper on top of the cardstock.

Fold the cardstock-"coat" around the chocolate and fasten it on the back side.

This is now a perfect coat for the chocolate.

Adhere the circle with the cute postcard on top of the paper-"coat".

embellish with paper-flowers and a piece of ribbon.

So simple and easy, and

Perfect as a cute little gift.

:)

Here are the two easter-cards I made today as well.

Hope you feel inspired.

Have a wonderful week!

Classes

Hi my friends

Hope you have had a wonderful week.

My week has been busy, busy, but fun.

Still working on shipping all the packages of 3ndypapir to all the retailers around Norway, Sweden, Iceland etc.

I have had alot of classes this week too - one every second day :) I love to teach, so these scrapbooking-and papercrafting classes makes me all happy.

Last weekend I attended the large Crop / gathering in Ski, and I had a blast, teaching, scrapbooking laughing, being with friends. GOOD TIMES!

:)

I had one class at Minnehjørnet early this week, and I will have one class at Steffens tomorrow.

Yesterday I went to Moss, I had so much fun teaching for a group of wonderful people there :)

They all wanted me to put out pictures and templates for the stuff we made in this class.

So without further ado, here it goes.

ENJOY!!

:)

I have put alot of love, time and effort into all my creations and templates.

Some of the templates are made by me, and some are other peoples work of art.

These templates are for PERSONAL USE ONLY!

Please don't use them for magazines, books or other commercial use without permission!
