DT Lacy Sunshine: School is cool!

Time again for a new challenge at Lacy Sunshine and this time our theme is

"School is cool"

So many people are going back to school around this time of year and I have made an altered chocolate box for one of my son's teachers who isn't going back.. at least not to my sons school but has gotten a new job and will leave at the beginning of the new semester. :-( She will be missed dearly! 

Here is my make: 

I have used papers from Maja Design and the hearty ones are from FlowerSoft/Elisabeth Bell. The one with stars on are from Magnolia. Added some stamps clocks on the sides as a way to say that "it's time to leave"... Ribbon and a star ribbon slider.

The image is by Lacy Sunshine and it's called Kenna Back to School, colored with Copic Markers. 

Added flowers and some bling.... 

More flowers and a pocket watch charm.... 

This is the cover and the chocolate box slides in to the cover...

DT Lacy Sunshine: Bloghop

GOOD MORNING LACIES!!!

It was a lovely day with a gentle breeze making the grass wave, but all of a sudden black clouds and icy wind came out of the north! What could it be but an evil force coming to wreak havoc in the garden? It must be Frostbite, the evil villainess, and why is she freezing the sweet Flower Pot Pretties and bloomin beauties?!? Snow is falling everywhere, and the icy wind blasted open the doors of the green house! How can we save the Flower Pot Pretties? What can be done to save summer?

We must Hop! With everyone hopping and spreading Sunshine we might 

have a chance to save the Flower Pot Pretties from Frostbite!

Whoop, whoop! A new challenge at Elisabeth Bell's World! We would like you to use four or more design papers. Easy peasy!

DT DigiBells: Easter Cuties

Today it's time again for me to post on the DigiBell's blog and this time I've made a "thank you/I'm sorry" card... I sponsored the prize for the Elisabeth Bell's world challenge a while back and the challenge was won by a dear man called Kevin. I think he shares the same love for Lissybee's images as we all do but I was so stressed out at work that I forgot to send him his prize... :'-( I felt so sorry for missing to send it I made a card to with the prize when I finally got around to sending it and this is it: 

I have used papers from Bildmålarna and a die cut banner from La La Land. The swirl is a die cut from Cheery Lynn and the bunnies are from Memory Box. 

I used Easter Cutie for this card... You find her in Elisabeth Bell's digital gallery. I thought it could be very versatile and was thinking of adding flowersoft to cover the eggs but I never got around to it. :-) Love this image. Yup, this one too.., 

Here is a close up on the flowers, pearl thread, lace and a little bow. 

Close up on the swirl and flowers... 

Thank you for visiting me today! 

Have a magical day!

DT DigiBells: Littlest Angel!

Today it's my turn to post at the DigiBells blog again and I kept at the Christmas theme as there are still a few weeks to enter the "Christmas in July" challenge at Elisabeth Bell's World. 

Today I have made a card using the image "Littlest Angel" and I looove her! I tried coloring her with my Prismas (again) but I simply can't get it right!! :-( Added Frantage again for the snow effect. 

Here is a close up. 

For my card I have used papers from Maja Design and the die cut snowflake behind the image and the one that the sentiment from Whimsy Stamps is stamped on is acctually the same as the prize offered to the challenge winner at the blog. I have the same set and I love it!!! 

So I hope you will be able to join us! 

Hugs and have a magical day!
