Magnetic Fun with digital stamps!

Hi Crafts and Me Fans!

I was really hoping to play with some of the new May images for today but my printer decided to run out of ink on me - shame on it! haha Thankfully I had this GORGEOUS Mystical Pond digital image printed out from awhile back that I had half colored. Phew! So, I decided, to make something FOR ME as so many times I make cards and such to sell or give away as gifts. And as much as I love these Hannah Lynn images, I wanted something I could look at any time so I made a magnet!! It was super easy and I know I will be making LOTS more to hang up on my fridge and around the house.

I recently picked up a pack of fragments by Tim Holtz and used the 2"x2" size for my image. You can see that it wasn't quite big enough for the entire image but I love that it really fills up the square that way. I colored her using Copics and my only suggestion would be to not use 100 next time around as you can see it bled a little when I adhered it. I used Helmar Craft Glue directly on the fragment piece and then attached my image - once it was dry, like 2 seconds, LOL, I used my craft knift to cut around the fragment. Seriously EASY! Then because I want this to last, I used Helmar Acid Free Glue on the back just to act as a sealer and protect the paper from any damage. Once that was dry, I attached the magnet using more Helmar Craft Glue. Super easy and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the result!

I also want to take a moment to share a two cards I've made for Crafts and Me Challenges recently:

using Fisherman's Catch

using Natalie

Strawberry Surf

Hello peeps, Karina here... FINALLY... blogger is acting again... sigh! I am really glad as I really want to show you my card I made to show you today. This really always happens when you can use it least of all. As I will leave for a one week vacation tomorrow I wanted to shedule some stuff. And now I can go with a good feeling :o).

For my card I used one of the gorgeous Hannah Lynn images. This one is called Strawberry Surf and is available HERE.

I want to show you another cards as well. Here I used 'Mystical Pond' from Hannah Lynn as well and available HERE.

Hannah Lynn images are pure pleasure to colour. You really have to try them. I love them. I coloured both images with Copics.

Right now we have a new challenge over at Crafts and Me challenges. The theme is PUNCHES. What are you waiting for. Join us, we're looking forward seeing your creations.

Thank you so much for your visit. Always much apprechiated.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs, Karina

Noon by Sara Burrier and more

Hey sweet crafters!

Finally the summer is coming to us here i the middle of Norway. Yesterday was incredibly hot for this time of season. It was soooo nice. Maybe i`ll actually manage to get fairly rosted before the summer is over, lol.

Well...anyway...every other saturday it is my (Mona) time to show you my creations. And for my card this time i have used two of the digistamps you can find in the Crafts and Me store. The first one is the lovely "Noon" by Sara Burrier. You can find it right here. The other stamp is the new mushroom fantasy and you can find it here.


I really had so much fun colouring up the mushroom image and i am a bit satisfied with it too. The "Noon" stamp i adhered on 3D coushins to make it pop out a bit.


I was totally in awe when i created my card yesterday. Some new digis by Sara Burrier is soon to arrive int the Crafts and Me store. And they are soooo gorgeous. I just sooooo wanted to use one of them on a card #2 but i had to work this weekend so i didn`t manage to finish my second card in time. So i only have this one to show you for this time. You really have something to look forward to. The digis are absolutely stunning!

I also want to show you the card i made for the pink and sweet challenge. I used the digi created by Hannah Lynn called Mystical Pond. This is one of the fabby new digis from this talented lady that is to be found in the store, right here.



Well...I don`t seem to have enything more to ramble about, thanks for putting up with me, lol. Just a little reminder...you still have the chance to enter the rockin` rubbah team`s Vintage/distressed challenge at the Crafts and Me challengeblog, so make sure to pop on over and join in on the fun.

Have a nice weekend you all!

Hugs...Mona
