Glade nyheter :)

Endelig har jeg noe gledelig å komme med her. Aller først er jeg happy happy hopp hopp over å kunne fortelle at jeg er tatt inn i Ladybug and friends sitt kreative team! Juba juba :) Til venstre i bloggen min ligger nå en søt liten blinkie som etterfølges av en rekke dyktige sjeler! Ladybug har nå også en egen blogg som dere anbefales å legge til i lista deres: Be Creative! heter den.

Her er mitt første marihøne-prosjekt; en såkalt Stationary Box. Denne laget jeg i bursdagsgave til mamsen, som fylte 76 år i går. Hun er "stamkunde" på bestillingsfronten, så nå tenkte jeg det var greit at hun hadde noen kort hun kan gi bort i hus.

I guess there has been a blue mood in my blog for a while, but now I can share some happiness again :) I'm really happy and honoured to tell you that I've become a part of Ladybug and Friend's Creative Team! I will highly recommend you to add the Be Creative! blog to your bloglist, as there's a lot of talented ladies in this team!

My very first Ladybug project is a Stationary Box I made for my mum's birthday -she turned 76 yesterday :) I'm sorry about the bad colour quality at these pictures, it was too late to take new photos when the box was already delivered at the post office ;)

I made the box using "spring has sprung" DP. This is so beautiful, and also a little thin for box making, so I reinforced it by adding a belt of cardstock with this old and cute image on :)

The top of the lid. The sentiment says "good wishes" and is stamped on vellum and then curled a bit with a bone folder.

Here's the lid removed, and the box open... I've made the inside simple, just added a greeting at the white sheet.

Closer look at the box filled with cards - and a couple of CD's. The size of the box is perfect for CD's :)

So... here's the two cards at about 13x15 cm:

And the other one...

On both these cards I've added Glossy Accents for the images. It's a bit difficult to show at a picture, but it turns out like pretty nice effect!

I also made four gift tags, using pink and green tags from Inkido. Here's the pink...

...and the green.

And finally; some small gift cards at 7,5x7,5 cm. Perfect size for using spare DP!

Pheew ;) that's all. It takes some time to make a box like this with all the cards included, but it's also very fun, and my mum was so happy to recieve it - although she wasn't sure if she would be able to give the cards away :)

Det ble en del bilder, dette, men det er jo en del kort oppi en sånn boks også, da. Litt jobb, men veldig morsom å lage, og mamsen ble så glad og fornøyd. Hun hadde muligens ikke råd til å gi bort noen av kortene, men det må hun jo, skal hun få fylt opp boksen! Ha en fortsatt fin torsdagskveld, takk for besøket :)
