2012-02-05T00:55:00.002+01:00

Hi Friends!

Happy saturday everybody! Hope you al are having a cozy, relaxing and fun weekend.
Im just here to share some more weekend fun with you.

Its time for a new fabby sketch over at The sketcy challanges, yay! and this sketch is made by our lovely sandy.

Heres my card...

and here is the sketch...

I used this cute little valentino from magnolia that i colored with my copics.

The papers is also magnolia from 3 different collections.

Last week i got theese new dies, they are so totally perfect for almoust every image, perfect sizes (altho i ordered the wrong dies. I was supposed to byu me some really big ones (Grand nestabilities) Somehow in the end everything turned out right anyways. Cause i got the big ones too, but now im realising that the big ones wont fit in my big shot,lol.)

Are you still with me, or are you as confused as i am?? Sorry for my ramblings and for sounding so totally confused, but hey, im Swedisch!

oke, now i dont meen that sweeds are confused,( well, maybe a little ;)) i meen the language barriers.

Sometimes i have some fun or interesting stuff i wanna share with you but i cant get it out right, so its al just sounding so stupid, ha, ha. Oh well, maybe im offering you some good laughs at times, cause sometimes it can go so totally wrong. At least at some of my Dts we are laughing our pants of so many times. Can you imagine how it sounds when we al get togheter and start to chat,LOL!

See, now im totally of track, i was supposed to tell you about my valentines card.

Heres a close up...

The flowers are from Prima and woc.

The ribbon is from my stasch and i think that the lace is also from woc.

I also used some magnolia doohickey dies, peony petals and flag and cloud.

witch you can find over at Bunny zoes. Mmmmm, soooo much yummy in that shop!

Im gonna give this card to the bestest mum ever...mine!

At first i wasent sure about the image. Isnt valentinos arrows consisting of that passionate love? Like the love between a man and a woman? But i tought...so what if it is, i dont mind cause hes so darn cute.

Im also gonna give her this beautiful white heart.

It says..."The worlds best mummy"!

and that she truly is. I honestly dont know where i would be today if it wasent for my mum.

After al that she has been thru shes still such a strong, loving and beautiful women.

oooh! how i wisch that i was more like her, in every way!

Love you so much mum! and thank you for everything!

So, now i have been writing this post for a whole day. So i think i better pusch publisch before it is tomorrow, lol.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!( Im really so thankful for al the lovely comments you al leave me. Im getting so happy when i read them . Al your nice words lift me up and i can honestly tell you that i need them so much right now. Its the best part of my day, reading al of your comments. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you al.

Trying something new!

2012-02-01T11:13:00.001+01:00

Good morning Friends!

How is everybody doing in this freezing weather?
Hey, who brought winter back? Its -15 here in Sweden right now, brrrrr....

I cant believe how long its since i made my last post, over a week.
Well, i have been busy, busy, busy.

One thing we have been doing is visiting a whole lot of different high schools.
My son is becoming a big boy.
Dont know if im too happy about that:(, hes really growing up waaaay too fast.
But i think he is happy about it, especially the part of deciding for himself, making his own decisions and choises,lol. Even tho he is realising that its not always that easy to do.
Its really a special and tough time in his life right know. Many choises to make.
I think he has made up his mind...Hes going to the navy highschool!!

We did visit both the school and the big boat ( witch mostly will be his classroom:)) and i think this is perfect for him. There will be so many new adventures and so many new possibilities for him.
Keeping my fingers crossed that everything will work out, just have to wait and see...

and talking about trying out something new...I have been trying out something new too,lol.

Its Februari the 1st, (where did Januari go?) and that meens a NEW challenge over at stampartic, Yay!
The NEW challenge is... Do something NEW!
Fun huh?
A perfect chance to try out something that has been on your mind.
You now the thing that you have been wanting to try out for such a long time now, but you kinda havent gotten there. What you waiting for, now is the time to do it!:)

Whilest bloghopping i came across a beautiful pop up card that i just had to try out for my self. Such a wonderful desing, just looksie...

Isnt the design just awsome?

I tought it was going to be really hard to do, but i followed the tutorial over here and it went really easy.

I have used little Tilda and her fence.

The papers is also Magnolia.

I stamped around the edges on the craft paper with my MS punch.

I also used my new tree die from Marianne Design, love it!

The flowers are a mix of woc and i am roses .

The coloring was made with my beloved copics:

Here you can see when the card is closed...

and here its pulled open.

Fun huh!?

Even my hubby said...

This is the best card you have ever done hunny! lol:) Isnt he just too sweet?

It was really, really fun to make this card, so i warmly recommend you to try it out, if you havent yet.

and for some inspiration and some lovely eyecandy hop on over to the stampartic blog.

The girls have some amazing stuff to show you.

Hope you liked my little pop up card.?

Thank you so much for stopping by today, makes me so happy!

Have a wonderful crafty day friends!

I opened my eyes and looked out my window, it was still dark. But i knew it was really could out there cause it was even could inside.
I got up and swept my robe around me, brrrr it was so cold. I got closer to the window and from the light off the lamp post i could see that it was snowing.
Oh my! that meens kaos out there. I for sure wouldnt wanna get out there, driving in that weather.
Well, was i lucky, it was my day at home. The only thing i was going to do was to spend some lovely time in my craft room.
Gotta get downstairs to put on some hot coffee and get started with some fun coloring.
Craftroom here i come.

Poored up some of that warm coffe and stumbled in to my own little space (i got theese lurvy slippers with huge bunny ears for christmas, therefor the stumbling, those ears, they are cute but genormeous:))
Put on the computer and tought that the first thing i would do was to check my mails.
Opened up my mail and what did i see?...It cant be true!...Really?!...You gotta be kidding me.
I pinched my self one time, ouch! two times, still hurts! i think i did it a third time too,lol.
Well there it was, some realy, really happy news. It said:
-Would you wanna be a GDT for tickled pinkstamps in Januari?
JiiiHuuuu!!! didnt even have to think about it, it was a big YES! I would LOVE to!
So thats the story about how i ended up here,lol

Al the girls has been bringing you previews for the new Greek Gods release at Tickled Pink Stamps for the last 6 days. They will al be realised tomorrow the 20th.
Today i was so lucky to get to play with one of theese wonderful sneek peeks called "Lolita Aphrodite Willow"

Just look at this beauty...

The papers i have used for my tag is from prima.

The flowerbranch is also from pima.

I also stuck in some white and pink flowers from my stach.

Behind everything i added a heart doily.

Hi Friends!

Its time for a new fun challange over at southern girls!:)

So today im here to show you my 1st ever WOW card!
It was sooo fun to make, and i really like that white on white effect.

and its even funnier to make a card when your playing with images that you love.
Cause our sponsor for this challange is tickled pink stamps, yay! lucky me. And guess what, i got twice as lucky, cause i got to play with TP twice this week:) (see my next post very, very soon:)).

Anyways...maybe you wanna see my WOW card?

I found some white seethru paper with glitterswirls on. I have no ide what its called, its not paper, not wellum, its almoust like some seethru fabric? What i do know is that its really beautiful, and i didnt even knew i had it until i went thru my stasch :)

I also used some diecuts, a beautiful frame from cheery lynn, flowers and swirl from magnolia.

The white little flowers are from Petaloo.

Tilda with flower!

2012-01-18T00:57:00.002+01:00

Hello friends!

It feels like i have been gone like forever. and i have missed you al lots and lots!
What can i say other then busy, busy and a sick baby on top of that, so not much playtime for me.
well, guess you al know how it is.

Anyways, today im here to show you my first dt card for copic marker europe blog, yay! Im soo happy about that but also a bit nervous. Im really not that sure about my coloring skills .I promise that i will do my best, but please be nice oke,lol

I made a card with this sweet little Tilda called Tilda with peony tails. She's from the new "sweet crazy love" collection. I love al the stamps from this new collection, so its really hard to choose witch one to color up first,lol.

After a while i decided to go with this beautiful tilda.

I made my desicion becouse of my design papers. I have theese beautiful Maja Design papers with beautiful purple roses on that i have been patting for a long time know. Some papers are so hard to cut in, they are so beautiful. But now i finally decided to cut in them..

I wanted to color that big flower that Tilda is holding in lilac/purple. I actually haven't used that much lilacs so I was off to the craft room to experiment a little on which copics to use.

I think i finally found a good combination, what do you think?

I really like this purple, green, black and white color combo.

The beautiful Maja Design papers are called "Ska vi ta en fika"

So, so sweet!:)

Some beautiful flowers from prima and woc

love those purple blings too,lol.

Copics i have used is:

Skin/Haut: E50, E51, E00, E11, Cheeks: E93, R21

Hair/Haar: E51, E31, E33, E35, E37

Dress+ Shoes/Kleid und Schuhe: W1, W2, W3, W5

Flower/Blume: RV91, V06, V12.

Leaves/Blätter: G40, YG61, G94.

If you dont have her yet, and you really have to, wanna, must, go crazy without this sweet Tilda, Just head on over to Bunny Zoes and there she will be waiting for you,lol.

Enabler! Who? me?....

Thanks alot for stopping by today, meens so much to me.

Hope i could give you some inspiration, just like you al give bunches of to me.

Have a wonderful evening lovelies!

The skethy challanges. Corrys sketch.

2012-01-08T02:02:00.000+01:00

Hi friends!

How is everybody doing today?
I have had a really calm and lazy saturday, taking care off and cuddyling with my sick little baby girl. Love that! Not that shes sick,lol, but the cuddyling part.
Shes doing so much better today, compeared to yesterday, so thats good.
Shes almoust back to beeing her happy, giggeling self.

Today is my first post as a new DT member over at The sketchy challanges (former Pink INK sketches) YAY!

Im sooo happy about that.!!! Beeing a part of this talanted team, and i looove sketches!

I think its the perfect way to get the mojo going. I also realised that sketches makes me go past my own comfort zones(its a really tiny zone). They inspire me and give me new ideas that i wouldnt even have tought about normally.
So in that process, while trying and experimenting, im also learning new things.
It doesent always end up the way i had in mind, but what a heck, maybe the next time ill be able to do it a little bit better and at least i had fun while messing it al up,lol.

Today we have a fabby sketch made by the wonderful Corry.

Here is the sketch...

And heres my card...

I used a cute little image from Saturated Canary.

The papers are a from create papers. I got them last summer, but i still think they are so beautiful.

This next pic will show you a little about the problems i have while making cards...

Witch leaves should i use???

The dark ones or the lighter ones???

Ill take the dark ones. No wait! i take the lighter ones,lol.

This is to where al my hours of card making is going. I just cant decide what to use, and i do like this with everything on the card. From the image, to the papers and then im worst with the embellies,lol.

well, now you know why it takes me days to finisch a card,lol.

and now when im looking at the cards i think i regret that i changed the leaves. The dark ones was better?

A close up of the cutest little image. I really love coloring them.

A little pin. one of those things iv never used on a card before, and i dont know why i havent. It gives a really fun and playful toutch to the card i think. So thanks Corry!

For the sentiment i made a little banner.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Cant wait to see what fun you al will do with Corrys sketch.

Im actually really excited to see what you al will come up with. Theres so much you can do with this sketch, just jump over to The Sketchy Challanges and youll see what i meen. The DT has come up with some amazing inspiration.

Have a wonderful evening!

(hmmm....think i liked the lighter leaves better after al....lol)

Hugs bettina

Hi friends!

Just a little note: as you can see on my blog header im having some huge problems. Al PDF files looks like this. I have downloaded some PDF thingy, but it only works for printing? I havent had this problem before, but after my computer crasched nothing is like it used to be.
So, now im asking you al, what am i doing wrong or, what should i do? please help me out!!!.
I want my blog to look good everytime you come by.
Its like knowing your having guests coming by and you dont cleane your house before they arrive,lol.

Here is my card...

Im celebreating christmas...

And i was also thinking about gingerbreads, thats what tilda is holding, a row of gingerbread hearts that she has baked,lol.

The dps i have used is from echo park called "times and season", they are wonderful. I just love the colors of the papers.

I also decorated the inside this time, but i forgot to take pics, so typical!

But inside i made a little pocket for that tag that you can see in this pic.

I just distressed the tag and then i put on a wellum sentiment that says warmest holiday wisches.

Its so funny, cause i was going thru my winter / christmas stasch and had no ide i had a whole block filled with beautiful wellum sentiments. Its a little like a mini christmas when you find stuff you didnt even know you had, isnt it?lol.

A close up of Tilda holding her baked gingerbread hearts.

Hi Friends!

Today we have the last challange for this year up and running over at Bunny zoes,
and this month our lovely Dorcas would love to see your fancy folds/ shaped cards.

heres my little fancy folds card...

I made a little easel card with this cute little bear image called "a christmas delivery" from stampavie.

I tryed to make it look like he was driving his car deep in the snowy forrest, hurrying home to the family with the gorgeous christmas tree he found in the woods, and al the wonderful christmas presents he bought down in the valley,lol.

Can you picture it?

I think its really hard to get a good pic from easels, dont you?

So, im sorry if the pics are a little... blah!

It would also be great to have some light.

But right know we are living in darkness here in Sweden.

Its not that bad, cause it can be really cousy too, with tons and tons of burning candles.

But those candels are no good for picture taking,lol.

A little close up of the images.

i also fuzzy cut some fab tree images from make it crafty.

Other things i have used on my card is..

Papers: My Minds Eye

Dies: Magnolia doohickeys , Tim holtz, Marianne D Creatables and Marianne D craftables

Pearls.

Im soo excited to see what you al will create.

Remember that the challange will go on until the second monday in Januari,

so lots of time.

We dont want you to feel any stress in this christmas time, do we?

Thank you so much to al of you for stopping by today!

Hope i could give you some inspiration?!

Have a wonderful evening!

Hi Friends!

Over at stampartic theres something FUN happening every day in December.
I strongly recommend you to pop by.
There will be a whole lot of inspiration,tips, tutorials, projects and a whole lot of eyecandy every single day!!:)
YAY!

So...
Are you al starting to get in to the christmas spirit now?
Only about two weeks left, and i havent even started my christmas shopping yet,yikes.

But thats ok, maybe ill end up doing al my christmas presents myself, lol.
At least that is what the teatchers over at my babygirls daycare are getting tomorrow, a home made gift.

Since i think its so much FUN to do al kinds of boxes and things, and i also love to alter them, thats what i did.

So here is a little box that i pimped up...

I also wanted to do a matching candle.

It will be nice for them when they are on a brake, sipping their warm coffe, to light a little candle.

Especially after beeing out in the cold with the kids a half day.

I also wanted them to have something cute to look at so i chosed little Tilda.

Heres the box from above...

I wanted you to see the sparkly and beautiful flower.

Here we have them both, the altered box and the candle...

I really had so much FUN making theese, and im so excited about tomorrow.

Will my daughters daycare teatchers like them?

at least i know they will like one thing...

I filled the box with lots of chockolate!

I hope you had FUN, and that i gave you some inspiration?

Have a wonderful day, and dont forget to have FUN! lol!

Big hugs and happy holidays!

Just like you al, i too have fallen in LOVE with Kristas wonderful images.( thanks Krista)
So here comes my first card with a Saturated Canary image.

The dp is from my new paper pad called "love me" from my minds eye.

A close up of the cutest little fairy.

I distressed al the edges and added some white lace and a little heart doily.

I also made a little pink ribbon flower.

I used some white ribbon and sprayed it with some pink mist. Then i just curled the ribbon round and round, lol, then i added this gorgeous bling on top.

(i now there is a whole lot of ribbon flower tutorials out there, but if someone is interested, ill happily show you how i made it.)

Hi Friends!

I hope that you al have had a fantastic weekend.

Today starts a new fun challange over at Bunny zoes.
The challange is to do something christmassy with pearls.

This is what i did...

I made a little telescope card.

I saw this design somewhere in the inthernet and tought that it was a superb idea.

I have used Sweet christmas Tilda on my card, and the dp is from the new Christmas collection called Holly christmas song and sweet flurry (red, white and green)

This is how the card lookes fully opened.

Isnt it a fun design? and when its closed it doesent take any space at al. So its really easy to fit in an envelope.

Think im gonna do a few of theese ones to send to some loved ones.

Also theres a lot of space to write down a special message.

a sidewiew. do you see al my white pearls ?

You just gotta head over to bunny zoes to see the rest of the DT girls amazing creations.

Happy Friday to you al. Finally the weekend is here, just wonderful, if you ask me.
From now on a few of my post will be in Swedisch. You can just pusch the translate button if you wisch.

Idag kommer jag att visa er mitt första inspirations kort som jag har gjort för swescrapbooks kortutmaning.
Linda/pysselbus har gjort en sådan underbar sketch för oss att följa.

Så här blev mitt kort...

Har längtat så efter att få färglägga mina nya Magnolia stämplar, och nu äntligen, fick jag tillfälle att skapa ett vintrigt kort i blåa toner.

Lilla söta Tilda

Jag har färglaggt henne med mina copics.

För mer inspiration hoppa gärna över till swescrapbook för att se va mycket fint resten av tjejerna har gjort.

Ha en underbar Fredag och en jätte trevlig helg.

Kram bettina.

Hi Friends!

Happy Friday to everyone!

Today im here to show you my Dt card for Divas by design.
The new challange started on Wednesday so im a little late. Told ya,im totally confused,lol.

Anyways...the theeme for this challange is...

Something spooky!

and here is my card...

The image i have used is a wee stamp. oooh! im totally in looove with theese images and i have been from the first time i layed my eyes on them.

And this witch is the cutest witch i ever seen, dont ya think?

Have you seen that bunny zoes have some of theese wee stamps in store now? yay!

A close up.

I have colored her with my copics.

oh yes! i have a question for you al.

my copics are running low, or actyally many of them are totally empty and soon im out of ink.

So, i have been looking around to try to find the perfect store to by some refillers.

Where do you al by your copic refills from? (i live in sweden, but the shipping really doesent mather that mutch)

I would be so greatful if you could help me out, cause soon i dont have any skincolor left, and almoust al my browns are empty, lol.

thanks!

Yikes! i hate spiders,lol.

i got theese little bugs from my mom, arent the cute?,lol.

Flowers...

The purple flower with the black brad in the middle was white from the beginning. But i found the perfect mist (witchs potion purple) to spray it with.

The orange tulips are from woc ant the others from my stasch.

The dp is fancy pants/ Oct 31. perfect for halloween cards.

I also used some black lace, a fence die from Cheery- lynn that i added some black stickles to.

the spidersweb i got in my cheery- lynn package.

I think that was so sweet, im my package there was so many precuted dies for me to try out.

I really like when you get something extra in your order.

Loooove stores that do that,lol.

I actyally fell in love with a couple of the dies and i really have to get them in my next order,lol.

thanks cheery-lynn for the gifts.

I also made a little boo banner.

I think that was it.

If you need some inspiration you just have to head on over to divas by design to see the rest of the dts wonderful creations.

Diving Tilda

2011-10-08T11:54:00.002+02:00

Hi friends!

Today im here to show you another first tryes by me,lol.
I tryed to do a tent card.

I have used this sweet little Diving Tilda. and i really had to put my thinking caps on when trying to figure out what to create with her.
well, this is what i ended up with.

I wanted to try to create a card where it lookes like tilda is on her way to dive in the water.

I started off by finding a image with some water and remembered the wonderful mic images.
So off to color...
I was soooo sceard, cause i have never colored water before, and i knew it would look a little.. hmmmmm... I really have to practise, A LOT,lol.

Here you have the finisched image...what can i say...other than LOL! and that at least i did it.

The dps from Magnolia was so perfect, dont you think?

I wanted to make the little pearls to look like waterdrops.

i sprayed them with some blue mist, but it didnt end up the way i had in mind, cause the mist didnt get stuck to the pearls,lol.

I also added some flowers that i thought matched the card, and i found some sea shells to add too.

a blurry close up of Tilda

You can find her and so much more over at Bunny zoes.

Hope you liked my first tent card? I really liked creating it.

Thank you so much for stopping by today and have a wonderful Saturday!

Hugs bettina

Tobys big day!

2011-10-02T14:36:00.002+02:00

Hi Friends!

Happy Sunday!
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
Today im here to show you my first attempt to make a cake card.
I have seen a few of them in blogland and think they look absolutly fabulous.

The stamp i have used is Wags n Whiskers, Tobys big day.
The papers are create paper portrait.
I have also used a few dies.
For the cake i have used nestabilities Eyelet circles, and the flowers are Marianne design ribbon floral 1.
I have also used some white flat backed pearls, and that beautiful turqoise flower is a mini spray stem.

You can find it al over at Bunny zoes crafts.

I was planning on adding some white candels to the cake,

but i only had blue and pink candels, so i went with the blue ones..

Guess that they dont match too good?lol.

Heres a pic of the turqoise stem flower and the die flower.

as you can see i added a really big pearl in the middle of that die flower.

Anyways, i had so much fun doing this, and it didnt take too long either, hmmm...except for that little box for the candles. I tryed and tryed to figure out the measurments, but...since they where in inches and im a centimeter girlie i just couldnt get it togheter,lol. oh well, i made my own little box, and the candles fit in there just perfectly.

So...now i have made my first cake card,yay. and i promise that i will be making more of them, so i hope you liked it,lol.

Have a wonderful day!

Hugs bettina.

Kenny K, Pins and Pearls!

2011-09-12T01:08:00.002+02:00

Hello my lovely friends!

How are you al this Sunday evening?
Im feeling a little bit poorly. My babygirl has been sick and feeverisch this whole week, and because shes cute as a cupcake i havent been able to stop myself trying to eat her up, kissing her...so...i got the nasty bug too,lol.

I meen just look at this pic...Isnt she and her bigbrother just the coolest couple?

LOL!

Anyways...im actually here to tell you about the new fab challange over at Kenny K!, Yay!!

Your Theme for this week is : PEARLS AND PINS, a combination of 2 items for you to get creative with this week. Don't forget to use a Kenny K image to be in with the chance of winning our prizes this week.

£10.00 Gift Voucher for My Mum's Craft Shop

And five fantastic images of your choice from Kenny K Downloads

And here is my card...

I have used Wanda wicked, i think she lookes so cool, and that was kinda what i was going for. Trying to make my card to look a little cool,lol. Not sure if i made it?

The dps i had in my stasch, you know that pile of papers that we al have,lol. so im sorry to say that im not sure of what or whos papers it is.

But this cool town sentiment im sure about...

Its called cityscape sayings and its by raindrop echo and i got it from whimsy stamps.

I also added a lot of PEARLS.

That cloud is chipboard that i sprayed with some glimmer mist. I just love that blueisch color.

This Beautiful PIN is from one of my blogging friends Linda, thefunkiejunkie. I know that she just has gotten a lot of knew lovely stuff in her etsy store, (and i know that cause im waiting for a little package, yum, yum,lol.).

I also added this cool digi ticket.

Al the flowers are from my little stasch, i have a little bowl where i put my leftover flowers.

When im done and ready with a card i always put the leftovers (the ones that just dont fit on my card, not enough space,lol) in that bowl.

I know, thats a little lazy not to put them back where they are supposed to be. I do try to have some good organisation but...Its just that when im ready with one card im in such a hurry to start with the next one so i just throw al those flowers from my table to that big bowl. (too much information???lol)

But its really fun to go thro it from time to time, like this time, i think i found just the perfect flowers for my card.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you got some inspiration from my card and that you liked it.

I cant wait to see al of yours lovely Kenny K cards.

Have a wonderful week!

Hugs bettina.

Hi Friends!

I have some Fabby news to share with you.

A few days ago i got a email from Nikki, Bunny Zoe asking me to join her wonderful, talanted and amazing team.

WoooHooo! Can you believe that ?

I didnt, i actyally had to write her back asking her if she was joking, but then i tought, no, you dont joke about theese things, but maybe she had sent that email to the wrong person,lol.

So, from now on im a part of this amazing team.
And i love her shop. I always end up broke after a visit to the bunny zoes shop,lol.

I cant wait to get started.

Thank you so much Nikki!!!

Hugs bettina.

Hello!

Just me again...duh, who else?,lol.

Well im back...duh, obviously,lol.

Oh no, im sooo tiered right know so i schould probably not be writing any blogpost, cause it will all just be al kinds of silly ramblings,lol. Thats how i am when im tiered.

I babble and babble, and al my little jokes seem so funny...? well, to me they do anyways but most of the time im the only one laughing,lol.
So im really gonna try to behave myself...no funny bettina jokes...or i will probably be so embarrassed tomorrow that i wont be able to show my face here anymore,lol.
So...lets just talk about the new challange over at Whoopsie Daisy.

The theeme is an easy one...Anything goes

Heres my card...

I used the cutest little flower girl image and colored her with my copics.

Isnt this just a wonderful color comination? Purple and yellow.

The paperpack i used is called floral from wild rose studio.

(I was thinking that i maybe should explaine the sentiment a little..."ride it out".

Im gonna give this card to a girlfriend of mine who is fighting cancer, and in her own way she is trying to ride it out...well, dont wanna get in to it more than that, but now you know why it has that sentiment, cause it wouldnt have any meaning if you didnt know...)

Isnt she just the cutest? You can find her over here.

I stamp the corners with some flower swirl stamps.

Beautiful flowers! They are a combination of woc and I am roses flowers.

Oh, and you just have to stop by Whoopsie Daisy to see the rest of the DTs wonderful creations.

I promise, they are al gorgeous!

Thank you so much for stopping by today, hope i see you tomorrow again.

Have a fantastic evening, where ever you are.

Hugs bettina
