It was a fab day full of wonderful shopping (!), cozy chats<i> and a little bit of cardmaking</i>. <br />
So much fun to see a lot of great ladies again and share this fantastic hobby. Just what I needed!<br />
Thanks to the great girls, who this year took over the job from Sabina. I am so happy, it will continue! <br />
<br />
Here are some of the cards, I managed to make .... most of them with some of the new goodies. <br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>Materials:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Tim Holtz stencil (layering lace), DCWV glitter paper, Technique Tuesday Stamp (smile borders),</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Hero Arts shadow inks (navy & ultra pink).</span></div>
<br />
I wanted to use the new (for me) Ultra Pink ink - but as I didn't clean the stencil (it had some navy ink from the first card) - the result turned out purple.<br />
<br />

<br />
This was actually the first card I made with the stencil, I really wanted to use the blue color, as I think it looks almost like the danish china pattern "<a href="http://www.royalcopenhagen.com/da/butik/details/1/stel/5/blue-fluted-mega/154/deep-plate-21-cm---6">Musselmalet</a>".<br />

<br />
<br />
I really had some other stamp sets on my shopping list (Lawn Fawn in particular) - but they had not yet arrived in DK - so I settled for the fun puuurrrfect stamp set from Mama Elephant - "Purrfect Pair" with cute cats. Love it!<br />

I realized yesterday, that I had run out... so today I made a few to have on hand for that next time....<br />

I kept the colors and design very simple. I like simple...<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;">Merry Xmas everyone! I hope you are enjoying the holidays! </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;">I sure am! </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">It is so nice to have some days off relaxing and spending time with family and friends, right? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;">I am hoping to get into the crafty mode soon, as I am off work untill January 5th ! Yay!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;">For now, I wanted to share some recent giftwrappings. </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;"> </span><br />
<br />
I got these very cute giftbags from Cosmo Cricket a while ago ( I love the vellum bag with glittery stars!) and I created some tags with the über cute Avery Elle Story Book stamp set. The sentiment is also from an Avery Elle stamp set "Oh happy Day". </div>
<br />

I am teaching in a Danish Online Class and this post is about the class...<br />
<br />
Julen står allerede for døren indenfor mange brancher og det er mere end 14 dage siden, jeg så den første julekalender i lufthavnen! :-) Lidt tidligt, ikke?<br />
(men, de der juleskum, de smager da også godt her i Oktober, hehe!).<br />
Personligt kan jeg godt vente med at forberede julen i hvert fald til efter Halloween!<br />
Men så skal vi også i gang, ikke? <br />
<br />
Og lige netop derefter, starter <span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="font-size: large;">Scrapsisters julekort kursus</span><span style="font-size: large;"> ! </span></span><br />
Nemlig den 1. november - 14. november! Se mere <span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://scrapsisters.dk/blog/julekortkursus-paa-scrapsisters/">her</a></span></span>, hvor du også kan finde listen over nogle fantastisk dygtige kortmager, som alle har en masse at byde på i de 14 dage kurset står på! <br />
<br />
Hvis du ikke allerede er tilmeldt, så kan du nå det endnu - <span style="color: #cc0000;"><a href="http://scrapsisters.dk/shop/online-kurser/test1.htm">klik klik</a></span> :-) <br />

I think using the brick urban style in this aqua color, paired with the cute MFT stamp could resemble ice blocks :-)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
I've added just a bit of wink of stella glitter on the white fur for some shine. The white panels on both cards were stamped with a Hero Arts background stamp (on the first card in wet cement ink and on the last card for a very subtle background I used Hero Arts Unicorn White)<br />

All about Copics. <br />
I've had a set of copics for ages but I've not been using them very much.<br />
I've truly always been intimidated by this type of coloring....<br />
<br />
The online class is really awesome.<br />
I have already learned a lot - now I just need to practice, practice, practice......<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Day 3: Shading with Grey</b><br />
This was really difficult but I think with more practice and getting to know good color combinations, this technique would be useful. I like the cup, but my umbrellas were a disaster :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Day 4: Shading & lights</b><br />
I've always found it difficult to know where to put the shading but we learned some very handy techniques in the class and here I am sharing a few of my practice results.<br />
This first one is creating texture with the flicking technique. Also very much used for hair. I really like this technique very much.<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(sorry for the blurry part of the photo - the colors used are E02, R02 & YR04). I used the same greens as for the yellow flower image.)</span></i><br />
<br />

<br />
This next one is regular shading with the light coming from the left. <br />

<br />
<b>Day 5: Hair & Skin</b><br />
And finally a few practice results with traditional brown & black hair. I must admit, I cheated a bit with the black, as I did not have a black copics marker, I used a distress ink marker for the black strokes.<br />
<br />
The skin coloring is really difficult - I think I need some more skin colors AND <u>more</u> practice!!! <br />

Also practicing hair and skin on this ballerina. I dropped too much wink of stella glitter on the lashes :-( <br />

And finally sharing a card I did with a favourite old owl stamp from Hero Arts. I wanted to practice coloring on real stamped images. I accidently dropped some ink on to the top of the card, so I had to cover my mistake by this chalkboard-like speech bubble.... :-) And with the direction of the shading I probably should have reversed the speech bubble, oh well!<br />

The results were very different and I haven't really been able to finalize anything for a full card yet !<br />
<br />
Anyway, I made this gift tag out of one of <i>failed</i> background pieces. I couldn't throw it away and I think it looks okay on this tag, eventhough it does not really have the watercolor effect, I was looking for. The white stars impressions in the background is made with a Tim Holtz stencil. <br />

I stitched on some vellum stars with silver thread and emsembled the tag with an extra die cut on the back, to hide the stitching. It makes is nice and sturdy, too!<br />

I blame it on my job, which requires so much attention and leaves very little time for being creative!<br />
<br />
Bummer!<u><br /></u><br />
I am daily flying back and forth between my home and Copenhagen (sometimes spending the nights there), so there is no real energy for making cards. Just the usual for birthdays and stuff, but no time to blog and share! <br />
<br />
Today was one of the good days - up early to work a bit in the garden, then I created a hydrangea wreath for the front door, made plum jams (3 kinds with rosemary, chili & liquorice) and finally I found a bit of time for making <u><b>one</b></u> card.<br />
<br />
Helping my mojo ( I am a bit rusty!) this time was this <a href="http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2014/08/foxes-challenge-foxy-foxes-challenge.html">Moxie Challenge Foxy theme.</a> <br />
Go check it out! ;) Aren't Foxes just the cutes!?<br />

Went totally tag crazy at the scrap club this week ... Used some of my newly bought stencils for some very simple tags, on this first photo here. I just love the harlequin stencil from Tim Holtz. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The text stamps are from Hero Arts - the tags were cut on the Silhouette Cameo. </div>

<br />
I am taking a fab <a href="http://onlinecardclasses.com/stenciled/">online class</a> <b><span style="color: #e69138;">Stenciled</span></b> and I am just catching up the homework here.<br />
<br />
This card was inspired by Debby's in the Day 1 class. I just love her card - so classy as always.<br />
<br />
I am always affraid of copying someone else 's work - but I do like the stenciled pattern going from one corner to the other. I softly used 3 Ranger Distress inks (scattered straw, bundled sage & evergreen bough) with my ink applicator, over the stencil (the kaleidoscope from TCW).<br />

I used a mixture of diecuts (an older cuttlebug die LOVE) and some hearts from SSS (holiday Shapes) for my focal point and added a lot of shimmer with the Wink of Stella clear pen.<br />

The background layer was misted quite heavily with the Ranger Perfect Pearl mist (sunflower sparkle) - it almost looks golden.<br />

<br />
Anyhow, I thought I would make a card featuring some copper details ;) and as Valentines is coming up I made 2 Valentine themed cards.<br />

I used a wooden skeewer (the kind we use for BBQs) for the arrow and cut a little V in the die cut <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=arrows&product_id=2017">MFT feather</a> to mimic a <i>real</i> arrow - I really love those copper details combined with the pale pink. <br />

I did plan to be creative during the holidays but besides helping out with some invitations I didn't get anything done. Well, I did clean up my craft room which is a good thing, right?<br />
<br />
Inspired by <a href="http://www.kwernerdesign.com/blog/">Kristinas</a> wonderful winter thanks card on <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/blog/winter-thanks-card/">the SSS blog</a> I pulled out my little cute Merry Kissmas stamp set from My Favorite Things. I also wanted to try out the watercoloring using distress markers - oh boy I need to practice ;) This card is my 3rd try - I think when watercoloring - it is okay to color outside the lines, huh :-) :-) Some sparkle was added with the oh so famous wink of stella pen! <br />

A lot going on on this tag, huh!? So the next one here is a very simple and clean winter card with another winter favorite - namely the bunny. I adore that stamp with the fun scarf and I absolutely love the coordinating die, which also makes it possible to make some extra dimension to a clean card, like the one here on the card. <br />

<br />
Gotta love that tippee in the<b><a href="http://blog.averyelle.com/search/label/AEI%E2%99%A5U%20Challenge"><span style="color: #bf9000;"> Home Sweet Home</span></a></b> set! :-)<br />
<br />
I paired up 2 sentiment stamps in the set to create the sentiment for the card. <br />

<br />
The 2 tippees are "hitched" together using some Lawn Fawn Twine. I used a bit of Claudine Hellmuth Studio Medium Matte to make the curls stay put.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The cirle was the flip side of a very large flower cirle from the Hero Arts set Big Circles. I inked it up with two neo hero arts inks and the new gold shadow ink, also from Hero arts.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The same kind of design - using hearts instead of circles.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I love sewing on cards - so here is a simple birthday card, stiching the balloons on to that cute Avery Elle balloon doggy.<br />
Love the sentiment in that same Avery Elle stamp set - isn't it fun!? <br />
<br />
I am sorry about the bad photo - I have a hard time photographing in the evening - so if you have any good tips on taking card pictures in the evening - especially camera settings (I have a Canon EOD 450 SLR), I would much appreciate it!<br />

<br />
I used a range of different hero arts shadow inks for the flower stamping around some cloud masks (MFT cloud die cut out of masking paper) .<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5zlkJV7rIAX7d1CuxnewQLaTl6DgrubLYGe8PZ6WnblYjHH21JlZmXU6qqPMjfBb9FJ0cE_CNXXPvH7xCCw0yVUQnaa7NHMrAb3EZ60_2CBQoXl0YrlkCYTxAqNuBYcAOkdv3MrPTmBqL/s1600/mayflowers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="636" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5zlkJV7rIAX7d1CuxnewQLaTl6DgrubLYGe8PZ6WnblYjHH21JlZmXU6qqPMjfBb9FJ0cE_CNXXPvH7xCCw0yVUQnaa7NHMrAb3EZ60_2CBQoXl0YrlkCYTxAqNuBYcAOkdv3MrPTmBqL/s640/mayflowers.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
One of the clouds was die cut directly out of the front panel and I used the negativ part when sponging the background (using hero arts soft pool shadow ink).<br />

I am not much of a vintage girl as many of you might know - but I do like to make a shabby card once in a while ;)<br />
<br />
I tried to use the technique on the front panel - but I think I wiped off too much of the paint and I was left with a <i>leathery</i> purple look. I decided to make a quick card anyway...<br />
<br />

I used some black hero arts layering paper as I did not have any black paint to start off with. I mixed two paints (picket fence & ripe persimmon) - but somehow the look turned out purple.<br />
<br />

<br />
I just made a die cut of my 2nd try - using only the ripe persimmon distress paint. I think the amount of paint on this piece is better.<br />

<br />
On this card I used the marbling technique - again with distress paints. I used 4 colors on my marbled banner (picket fence, pickled raspberry, ripe persimmon & gathered twigs)<br />
<br />

What a fun effect that gives! And I personally like the mat look that comes from these paints!<br />

I loved last year's 101, so naturally I had to sign up for the 102 with the fabulous Tim Holtz.<br />
<br />
I was in Copenhagen (far away from my scrapdesk) for the first 2 days - so I am running a bit behind with the classes and trying out the different techniques!<br />
<br />
Today I am sharing a card using a technique from day1 - stamping resist. Stamping with distress paint - love the mat look! I chose the wonderful Trick & Treaters stamp which is actually a solid stamp (see the last card (from last year) - but somehow I applied the paint in such a way that I ended up with an outline image of that stamp (a ghost like look) - and I just love that!! What do you think?<br />
<br />
After heatsetting I distressed the background using scattered straw, evergreen bough & black soot.<br />
<br />
