Bookfolding "Cross"

Hi everyone,


Today I found a picture of a book I folded several years ago...
The book was made to a friend of mine, while he was going 
through a very difficult time.

Pattern: Anna Lindström.

This is all for now
Wish you all a wonderful day!

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle

Bookfolding "H❤️me"

Hei Hei


Her kommer et nytt innlegg fra min samling av bookfolding.

Innser at jeg har en del bøker som er brettet opp gjennom tidene...   Vil legge dem ut her i bloggen etterhvert som jeg finner bildene av disse.

Denne boken brettet jeg til min eldste sønn og hans familie da de flyttet inn i nytt hus i 2015.
Mønsteret er skapt av Jo Black.
Pyntet så permen på begge sider, satte på en blonde og noen blomster ...   og voilá her er resultatet:





Dette var alt for denne gang.

Ha en fin dag!

Ally's Angels DT-Challenge #36 "Fishball-box turn into a A Coffee Fund Money Box"

Hello dear followers,

I hope you have had a good extended summer so far!
I sure hope that you had a wonderful week, 
and have lots of fun things planned for the upcoming weekend!


We have a new challenge beginning this evening at Ally's Angels. 
The theme as always is ...... 
Anything Goes

Here is what I came up with...  

A Coffee Fund Money Box


I made this for my husbands truck garage,
he get visitors several times a day... and of course 
they drink a LOT of coffee


I've uI've used a fishball box.  As you see, I didn't open it the way it's ment to. 
I opened it in the bottom. Then I made a new bottom of thick paper and glued
                it on before I tied a string  a couple of turns around and ended it with a loop.t with a loop.


Then I painted everything twice with white gesso .
To get this shabby look I used walnut stain and black sooted ink.
I also stamped it with Tim Holtz tire pattern.


Finally I could start to decorate it. 
I stamped up some stamps from Tim Holtz stampers anonymous,
and some texts from Papirdesign. I also created a text on my computer
to get my own message.   Then  inked them all up
to get a shabby look before I glued them on.


This is all for now.

Hope you've been inspired by this project to join our Challenge #36


Thanks for stopping by,
Hugs from DT -Mariann-

Ally's Angels DT-Challenge #35 "Confirmation card with a book on the top"

Hello all my crafty friends!!


I had an opportunity to get into my craftroom this week...which was really nice. I've been so busy lately with working in my garden, so this leisure time in my craftroom is like spa for my soul.
So far has this year been very strange, not only because of the covid-19, but also because of the coldness and nasty weather we've had for the last 6 months. Finally the snow is gone, and I do hope we'll get a great summer now.

Okay...so onto the reason why I'm here today... 

Yes it's time for the monthly Ally's Angels post!  So come on and join us for June's "Anything Goes" challenge...Ally has another fabulous prize waiting for one of you talented crafters!


  Here is what I came up with this time...
     ....  A Confirmation Card


Inside I've decorated a bit, but I've also left room for more personalized greetings.


Now it's your turn to join us at
Ally's Angels. 

I can't wait to see what you have to inspire us with!!

Thanks for visiting...signing off for now...
