Sunday evening and all is well

Finally a free day! We have loads to do in the store and that is so much fun! But I have to admit that I´m really tired when the work week is done.

I´ve been trying out a new gadget that we bought to the store and so far I´m really pleased with it! Here it is:

Yup! The MM´s Slice machine. It cuts really smooth and was soo easy to learn. I love that it´s electric and that it has so many features. One that I´m particulary fond of is that you can decide what size you wanna cut up to 4 inches. I also like that it comes with a memory card smack full of great die-cuts.  Just the three different alphas alone is so worth the machine!

I promise I´ll be back with examples of what I´m doing with it! ;)

I´ve just made a new digital layout as a CT for Erica Zane, but I can´t show it yet! It´s from her upcoming Black Friday GB releasing this Friday over at ScrapMatters. Here´s a little sneak….

What I can show you is my latest layout for Mari Koegelenberg with her November GB over at TDC:

… and this one with her collab kit Golden Harvest:

Now I´m off for some more scrapping!

Happy Scrapping! / Carina

Busy Sunday

Today has been a really busy day! Cleaning, doing the laundry, making lasagna……. AND squeezed in some creative time!

I found this awesome tutorial on how to make your own sassy flowers. What do you think about these that I made?

Sorry for the bad pic! If you want to try visit this place: Holly´s tutorial

I also finished a necklace that I started on yesterday:

Tomorrow I´ll be working in my store again and I gotta tell you it´s crazy these days! We have sooo much to do when Christmas is around the corner. But it´s also so much fun! I´m looking forward to some new stuff that we´ve been ordered to the store. One of them is the Slice machine which seems so cool.

When I get back home I´m gonna start planning for Christmas. I wanna do loads of stuff this year like baking and making my own candy.

Have a nice week – and happy scrapping!

Another London layout

I downloaded a nice sketch from The DigiChick from their sketch challenge and I made this layout:

The kit I used here is by KasiaDesign and it´s called Whimsical Poetry. ‘

I´m gonna use this sketch again to be able to be in the sketch challenge – it has to be 50% TDC stuff and I´m gonna use some goodies from Mari Koegelenberg… ;)

DSD

Hope you enjoyed DSD this weekend with all the fun going on around in digi-land! I was working myself so I didn´t have that much time to spend on all the fun… :(

I did a couple of good bargains though – I couldn´t help myself when I stumbled across THESE goodies:

 

Three of them were actually freebies and they´re awesome – Malina´s Christmas is all around; Evercila´s Tinted and Rock-a-Bye Baby by My3Hens.

Now just guess how much fun I´m gonna have with these! And if you hurry I think that you still can pick up some of Kasia Desigs for a steal  - 1 US dollar each! Hmmmm…when I grow up to a designer I wanna be just like her! ;) LOVE her design!

Have a wonderful week!/Carina

Thank you Bonnie!

I got such a cute suprise from Bonnie who´s CT I´m on in the mail a couple of weeks ago. I haven´t had the time to post it but here it is:

There´s a wonderful ATC card and some adorable tags – so beautiful!

I would really love to do some ATC´s but right now I don´t really have the time for it…but one day!

So thanks again Bonnie! Love it!

Hi again!

I`ve been struggling with making my own backgrounds for my blog but it seems impoosible to make it work!  I have search the net but now I´m so tired…I´d love to know if any of you have any good ideas on how to learn how to do it…

Life keeps rolling on and I have to make Christmas cards for a class due next week. I just realized that I forgot all the papers for it at work –what a bummer! At least I can color the motifs for them….

Now you have a nice Saturday and Sunday!
