Urchin with bird

Hei alle sammen!! Det har gått lenge nå siden jeg har laget et ikke DT relatert prosjekt, men endelig kommer et kort for noen utfordringer.

Hi everybody!! It's been a long long time since I've done anything not DT related, but finally here is a card for some challenges

Jeg har sett at ABC  Christmas Challenge har en DT call og tenkte å prøve lykken der, da dette er en utfordring hvor jeg ikke trenger levere noe hver eneste uke, og så trenger jeg jo å få begynt på julekortene mine!

I've seen that ABC Christmas Challenge has a  DT call and thought I might have a go at it, since this is a challenge that I do not have to deliver every single week and I certainly could get started on my Christmas cards. 

Jeg har valgt å lage et vinterlig kort og jeg elsker å bruke blått og brunt. Det gir en så god og vinterlig, men samtidig vintage følelse også. Samtidig kan jeg levere denne til Sketch Saturday og til MOs DP2 challenge da denne passer ypperlig til dette formålet også.

I've chosen to make a winter card and I just love using blue and brown colour combo. It gives such a wintery, yet a vintage feel to it too. At the same time I can deliver this for Sketch Saturday and MO's DP2 challenge as it fits for those challenges as well.

Her er kortet mitt/ Here's my card:



Oppskrift kommer senere/ My recipe will be added later

Jeg leverer til følgende utfordringer/ I'll deliver for these challenges:
Make it Monday: Anything Goes
Sketch Saturday: Sketch
ABC Christmas Callenge: H for hardware (charm)
DP2 Challenge: Favourite colour combo (fav winter colours)
(I'll add some more later)

It is monday again and it has been 2 weeks since our last challenge over at Cutie Pie Challenge. We had lots of great entries for the circle challenge, so if you played along and am wondering if you are a winner, check the post here.

I wanna make some apologies for not being around at all my lovely followers blogs lately. Just been so busy and caught up in work. I am gonna start on my rounds later today, so I am on that one too;)

Now we have a new and fabolous challenge for you and as you probably noticed from the header it is monochromatic. So choose your colour and play along please. We have some great sponsors as well.
