Some sports pages

Well sport is out and marching band and JROTC has taken over (no pages yet, but they will come)
Kind of missing the football and baseball fields.... OK.....  NEVER thought I would ever ever say that LOL..., anyway I found some ''old'' football pictures and it really got me in the mood to scrap again

Did this first page using the new company Trinity Paper Art's "Making The Team" papers and stickers

This page is a lift of the Norwegian scrapper Milla, She won the DT challenge at  Scrappeland  and in true tradition us DT girls lifted one of her LO's. I used papers from Teresa Collins, Thickers, Tim Holtz ribbon, and the star is from Teresa Collins. Here is Millas LO thanks a bunch for participating

Global Hobby and Pan Pastels

 The Design Team at Scrappeland was so fortunate this month, we where sponsored by Global Hobby og kunst a wholesale company selling craft and hobby supplies to craft, hobby and scrapbook stores in Norway. 

Check out their blog here Din fantasi – fra hobby til kunst!

The products they sent us to play with was Pan Pastels, these chalks are just awesome, so smooth and easy to work with. There is around 80 colors, and lots of fun tools to go along with them

I did a canvas, where I used the Pan Pastels for the background and stamped on top stamps are by Donna Downey and Dyan Reaveley, I also added tape from Tim Holtz that I colored with Pan Pastels. I used Archival ink from Ranger

Here on this card I used the pan pastels for all the coloring after I stamped the images with ink from Memento, the stamps are from Heartfelt Creations, Dyan Reaveley and Stamping up. 

Here is an article Renate has written in Scrappeland about the company and the Pan Pastels(in Norwegian)

Take a look here at what the other girls made, and here to see the YouTube video of the kit

WoW, it has been forever, but i have some peeks

It has been forever since I posted anything here. November and December has just flown away  as they always do. In November I went back to Norway for a couple of weeks, my father i not doing well and I just had to go home and see him. After I got back here it has just been totally crazy. We had the opening of the new Norwegian church/center. where Crown princess Mette Marit of Norway was attending. Then between working for Paper Niche, Willy's products,  helping with catering and baking Kransekaker, creating just had to be put on the back burner

This is the kransekake I made for Crown Princess Mette Marits visit
