Autumn / Fall Journal

 Yesterday I finished this journal. I had so much fun making it!
The patterned papers and images are mostly from Gi, a couple of them from Beccy.
The papers for journaling are coffee stained.
I also made some tags and note books for writing.
The autumn leaves on most of the pages are made with
Memory Box "Falling Maple" stencil.
I also used two maple leaves punches: Artoz (the bigger one) and one unbranded.
Closure: Seam binding coloured with Dylusions Sprays.

On the page to the right  I used gesso to get a little structure.

Behind this tag there is a little note book

Autumn Journal

For this autumn journal I used different sets from Gi Kerr.
The image on one of the pockets is from Beccy.
As always in my journals there are lots of space to write on.
Coffee dyed papers.
To make the cover studier, I glued three layers of Amazon packing papers on the inside.
So it is not quite wrinkle free. 😁
Closure: Seam binding coloured with Dylusions Sprays.
Maple leaf punches: EK Success and Artoz.
Die: Spellbinders Oval.
Different Distress Inks.

On this pocket the image is from Beccy

On every coffee dyed paper there is an autumn symbol.

Greeting Card, OLC

Over at The Paper Players there is a color challenge: Use Red, yellow and blue.

I made a simple greeting card
using selfmade stencils, inks and pens.

Punches for the stencils:
EK Success and Gütermann Flowers.

Versacolor and Distress Inks.
Red, blue and yellow pens for the doodling.

I thought to use this card for a birthday.
But there is no sentiment on it, so it may be used for different occasions.

Konfirmasjonskort til jente

I dag beveger jeg meg ut på ukjent terreng, eller utenfor komfortsonen min.
Jeg lager vanligvis kort i størrelse A6,
men dette er dobbelt så stort, altså A5.
Og dessuten har jeg prøvd å bruke en fargepalett fra Scrappelyst.
Også det er et nytt område for meg.

Papiret jeg har brukt, er fra Gi Kerr (Happiness in Crafting),
pluss litt restepapir til dies og puncher.

Motiv: Wenche Jensen.
Det kan kjøpes på hennes fb-side: W.Jensen.Design. 
Hun har mye fint!

Spellbinders Scalloped Circle die for motivet,
pluss en ukjent die bakenfor. Kanskje en Sizzix?
På de to platene brukte jeg Distress Ink "hickory smoke" rundt kantene.

Bladene er Elizabeth Design "Curvy Leaves" dies,
Blomstene: EK Success Flower Punch.
To typer Stickles: "Frosted Lace" og "Star Dust".
Noen halvperler.

Tekst-sticker fra Artoz.

Vintage Christmas Gift Tag

This afternoon my dear husband brought some delicious pieces of cake from the bakery as he returned home. The cake box was too good to throw away, so I took the clean sides and made some gift tags. Here is the first one.
I glued coffee stained paper to hide the printed side of the card stock and used Distress ink to give the tag a vintage look.

Hidden Double Pocket Tag

I made a hidden double pocket tag for my autumn journal.

In the pockets on each side there is place for journal cards, tags or a little surprise.
At first I made the tag with coffee stained paper.
I sewed two of the sides to reinforce the openings of the pockets.

Then I punched a maple leaf with an Artoz punch
and used the negative as a stencil.
I used Distress inks with different autumn colours for the leaves.
The seam binding for the bow I coloured with Dylusions Ink Spray.

The backside has got the same leaves:

CAS Birthday Card

Today I made a CAS card,
inspired by the DT cards over at "Less is more".
This is for me a quite new way to make cards.

I used: 

White double card A6 and white card stock.

On the card stock I placed two strips of Washi tape
 for the border.

I stamped the border with: Knorr Pandrell flowers.
Used blue distress ink on the stamp.
Coloured the flowers with blue, green and yellow distress inks.
After removing the Washi tape, I scored three lines
between the flowers and the edge of the card stock.
(Better to see on the second photo.)
The sentiment was stamped with blue distress ink
on a Cuddly Buddly stamp.
Tool: Misty.

With this card I want to take place here:
