Tag For A Junk Journal

Just now I'm making a journal for a good friend of mine,
and for this journal I need some tags.

Here is one of them, and I used:
Tag die: Spellbinders, cut out of a hamburger box.
To hide the text on the tag, I covered it with coffee dyed paper.
Image: Beccy. This is one of my fav images from her.
The light spaces behind the roses are less white than they seem to be on the picture. I used brown distress ink to make them more natural.
The sentiment in Norwegian says: "Thankful for you".

Swissie

My name is Liv. I am a Norwegian woman, living in Switzerland since 2005 together with my Swiss husband. Until 2014 we were the pastor couple of our evangelical Church. I love my husband and my wonderful Savior Jesus Christ. My hobbies are card making, knitting, drawing and singing. And I love cats.

Iris Tag 2

Here is a simple made double tag with a fussy cut blue iris from Beccy.

I used Distress Ink on the edges, to pick up the colour of the flower.

Iris Tag 1

I continue making cards and tags with Beccy's wonderful Irises.

Here is a tag with a fussy cut pink one.
For the tag I used Spellbinders Tag die and random decorated it with Nuvo Shimmer Power.
Blue thin marker around the edges.

The Fist Tag From My New Craft Room!

Oh how I have longed for this!

We moved to our new place in May, and after that we were abroad for many weeks!

And after we returned home on the 1st of August, I have tried to organize my new craft room, so that I can play at my new desk!
And just now, this afternoon, is the first time since Easter! I'm so happy!
I'm still not finished with my room.
I ask myself again and again: Where did I place those boxes? 😉
*******

I decided to start using scraps and images which I already had gathered, before I print new images. So today I made a tag out of a food box.

I used:
Spellbinders tag die,
Image and sentiment: Beccy,
Papers: Scraps of coffee dyed paper and "Scratch" (from "A Bit More Time To Craft"),
Stencil: Prima.
Distress inks, purple Rhine Stone, paper cord.

Confirmation Card

This is my first post since April!

We have moved to another part of Switzerland,

and I have still not got my new craft room ready.

But I'm happy to discover that my computer is working! 😊

Today I show you a card which I made earlier this year,

before I had to store away all my craft stuff.

The young girl is a big friend of all sorts of animals, and she has got her own aquarium at home. So her grandmother, who ordered this card, wanted me to make something with fish.
Beccy has some wonderful fish images, and I used them on the inside of this card.

The patterned paper is from Lozzy.

Birthday In The Woods

I made this birthday card for a man and used a funny image and sentiment from Beccy.

The trees are made with a selv made stencil. (I used a Nellie Snellen die to get the trees).

Dies:
Spellbinders Tag, WeR Memory Keepes Nesting Card.
I also used Distress inks for the scenery and brown Stabilo marker for the frame.
Birthday greeting in Norwegian.
