Name meaning?

I’m back from my fantastic holidays and just found this on Carol’s blog:

What Monika Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don’t have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you’ll knock down anyone who gets in your way!You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It’s easy to get you excited… which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don’t stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are a seeker of knowledge, and you have learned many things in your life. You are also a keeper of knowledge – meaning you don’t spill secrets or spread gossip. People sometimes think you’re snobby or aloof, but you’re just too deep in thought to pay attention to them. You are usually the best at everything … you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic „Type A“ personality.

What’s Your Name’s Hidden Meaning?

Arty Girlz – Frames

This week’s challenge is ‘Frames’ on the Arty Girlz Challenge Blog. So we could use cardstock to make a frame, do a stitched frame, a buttoned frame, alter a frame, doodle a frame…. there’s so much we can do for this challenge and they can’t wait to see what we come up with.

I tried this week something different from my other cards last week and this is what I came up with. Maybe I try tomorrow something else to do with it. Will let you know on my blog

Supplies: Cuttlebug frame dies, Kare Marie Klip

Papertake Weekly Challenge – Blooming Gorgeous

This weeks challenge ‘Blooming Gorgeous!’ is to use floral embellishments on our projects set by Papertake Weekly Challenge! These could be Prima’s, silk, wire stemmed, die cut, handcut etc! etc!

As some friends of us moved into a new flat today, I decided to welcome them home with a card from us. Instead of sending a flower bouquet I send them a card with flowers on it – lol.

Supplies: Paper – Provo Craft, Stamp: Stampendous – Dot Dragonfly, Flowers – Cuttlebug dies

Baby Card for Tara’s Blog Candy

I just saw on Tara’s Blog that she gives some sweet pink things away and so I decided to take part in her challenge (I can always use some pink paper, ribbons, etc. for my little nieces:)).

She would like us to make a baby card, boy or girl as they are just her favourite ones to make. She will leave the challenge  open until next Saturday and then get her husband to choose his favourite.

Supplies: Paper: Provo Craft, Stamp: Stampendous – Dot Dragonfly, Rub-on letters: Rob and Bob Studio

Sketch this cards: #40

This is a card done with the Sketch No. 40 from Janelle Richmond’s blog.

Supplies: Paper: Provo Craft, Stamp: Stampendous – Dot Dragonfly

Tilda & Co. – Buckle

On the Tilda & Co. Challenge Blog they would love to see our Buckle Art Work. We could use a buckle for a ribbon slider, we could make a buckle from scratch as a closer on a card. Or perhaps use a old Belt buckle? Once again any form of artwork counts aslong as it includes „buckle“ & Magnolia stamp(s).

I just made a buckle card for Fran’s Blog Candy yesterday and enjoyed it so much, that I decided to do one again for this challenge today. 

Supplies: Paper: Provo Craft, Stamp: Magnolia – Tilda

My Paperworld – Sketch 3#

I just did another card for My paperworld – Sketch 3. As I mentioned before, I still need a few cards for a friend of mine and because the layout is really easy to handle I decided to give it another go. Still 4 more cards to create for my friend.

Fran’s Blog Candy

I made this card for Fran’s Blog Candy. She has a huge amount of goodies to give away and so I thought I give it a try.

The card is make after the Splitcoasterstampers Big Buckle Card tutorial. I just felt in love after the first sight with this kind of card and will hopefully make some others soon.

Have a go for Fran’s Blog candy yourself or the Big Buckle Card.

DCM – Red and White

This week, the DCM team decided on a colour combination for a change. They want us to design a card using only RED AND WHITE on our cards- it doesn’t have to be a Valentine themed card – it can be any theme- as long as use incorporate RED and WHITE on it.

I just tried this week doing already a card for Christmas. I used a tissue with littte elves who are holding a present but I’m not that happy with the writting. So will have another try…
