Little Monster






...not sure what Pernille thinks, but this is my little taking monster :-)

Background is made with gesso and Matt Acrylic Paint from Kreul. Additional to that, I have used Waterbased crayons from Crea Color. Fun to make, and I love the outcome of it :-) And this is the first page finnished in my new art journal book!

Lille monster-side ferdig, og jeg er ikke helt sikker på hva Pernille tenkte om denne :-) Hun sa ikke noe, men likte ikke konkurransen om plassen på pulten - fnis!

Bakgrunnen er laget med gesso og akrylmaling fra Kreul. I tillegg til det, så har jeg brukt vannbaserte pasteller fra Crea Color. Kjempe morsom side å lage, og jeg liker faktisk resultatet :-) Håper du også gjør det!

Første side ferdig i min nyinnkjøpte art journal bok :-)

Cupcake Sunday!


Yes, cupcake Sunday! Believe it or not, I have made cupcakes today :-)

With products that we have in store from Wilton, I just needed to try out american cupcakes... Since we do have so much products to make them pretty :-) This is my second time, and I think I like it :-) I like to BAKE :-)

Frosting is made of Philidelphia Cheese, Oil, Pouder Sugar and Lemon! I can recommand this if you do not like your cupcakes too sweet :-)

Jaaaaa, det er faktisk muffinsdag i Munkebekken i dag! Tro det eller ikke, jeg har bakt "cupcakes" i dag. Skikkelige amerikanske med noen av de kule produktene jeg har funnet i butikken fra Wilton. Så nå kommer jeg nok til å gå enda mer bananas når jeg kommer på jobb i morgen, fordi dette var virkelig gøy :-) Fnis :-)

Pynten er forresten laget med philidelphia ost, rapsolje, melis og ferskpresset sitron. Denne kan jeg virkelig anbefale, dersom du ikke liker muffinsene dine for søte :-)

Let me introduce...



...my next new Art Journal! Got it in London on a flea market, and I am so happy that I found it! It was waiting for me in a small antique book shop in Portobello Road, and it was screaming "take me home, take me home".

I love my new Art Journal :-)

La meg introdusere min nye Art Journal! Jeg fant den på et loppemarket i London, og jeg er mega glad for at jeg fant akkurat denne boken. Den ble funnet i en liten antikk bokbutikk, i andre etasje innerst inne i en krok. Den bare skrek mot meg "ta meg hjem, ta meg hjem"!

Jeg bare LOVE min nye Art Journal bok :-)

Back from London!




Back from seven days in London, and what a perfect holiday! We enjoid every second of it and I have been taking a lot of pictures.

Here's tree of them, Big Ben, Blade Rubber Stamp Store and of course my daily favorite Starbuck Ice Latte. Yammi! And, I can recommend Blade Rubber Stamps for all rubber stamps lovers :-) Small shop, but lots of cool stamps!! Got a bit expensive...

Anyway, I am back and I am getting a visit this weekend. A creative visit, and we are planning for lots of Art Journal fun :-)

Hjemme fra en fantastisk uke i London, og som bare var en utrolig avslappende og morsomt opphold. Vi har kost oss med sightseeing, shopping, musicals og vin. Dette var akkurat et jeg trengte nå!

Bildene over er fra Big Ben, Blade Rubber Stamps og min daglige uvane - Starbucks Is Latte. Kan virkelig anbefale Blade Rubber Stamps - liten butikk med masse kule stempler. Men skru ikke opp forventningene, siden det sikkert har helt med din stempel-stil. Jeg likte iallefall det jeg fant :-)

Og i helgen får jeg kreativt besøk, og det gleder jeg meg kjempe mye til. Planene er å leke med Art Journalene våre! Johoooooo! Så kanskje det blir lagt ut litt i løpet av helgen....

Loved to have you here, and hope we see each other soon! Keep in touch, girl :-)

StampARTic is open after Summer Break...



...and the ARTsy-team has the honor to open the show :-)

Have to admit that 4th of August came a little bit to fast, and that I had to rush my card. Also has to admit that I am not that happy with my card, but not to unhappy either :-) I just bought a lot of stamps from Unity Stamps designed by Suzi Blu. Love the stamps, and I have the feeling that you will see a lot of stamps from that collection in my blog in the time to come :-)

Thank you, Suzi Blu and Unity Stamps, for designing so COOL stamps :-)

Days go by...



...and in between visit from Bergen, Australia and work, I do not find time to be creative. I want to, but the time just fly by and suddenly it's time to go to bed :-) As some of you know, I find inspiration and things to use in my Art Journal everywhere. And to work in Norways biggest craftstore may be a risk :-) As the other day, when I suddenly realized that Crayola has some very cool metallic crayons. Just had to make a fun page....

Timer og dager flyr forbi, og innimellom besøk fra Bergen, Australia og jobb, er det nesten aldri tid for kreative sysler. Jeg vil og ønsker å være kreativ hele tiden, men plutselig er det tid for senga. Men, innimellom finner jeg tid, og da er det som regel Art Journalen min som blir fokuset. Insirasjon finner jeg over alt, og det å jobbe for Norges største hobbybutikk betyr en stor risiko - fnis! Her om dagen oppdaget jeg at Crayola har barnepasteller i metallic farger, og de er jo bare helt supre til Art Journalen min. Så, da ble det en side da...
