HELLO FRIENDS, HOPE YOUR WEEK WAS GREAT !!

Back again with a new card, as ,almost ,usual, lol, made

with both papers and fabrics. I transferred the old photo ,

to cotton, and layered it with old laces , wall paper,

packing material, and a few flowers and buttons 

I just had to add the cross to her necklace ,it seemed

to belong there !!

On one of my tours, this amazing collection of fungi, caught

my eyes, there were a huge amount on the old tree stump!!

Aren`t they beautiful !!!

And so is the sun shining so lovely into the sea. 

Thank you for your visit, it makes me very happy 

seeing and hearing from you here on my blog !!

Hugs and love, Dorthe 

p.s. forgot to tell you, that Mathilde is visiting here, the coming week :-)

She has winter vacation from school, and will spend it here ,for which 

I`m so happy . 

Only thing is,that you will not see me around for a week, but I promise to 

do some following up, on your blogs, after !!!

IN MY PINK MOOD !!

Already entering February, after January disappeared just like that...

I wonder if you felt the same , ...the days are just running, one 

after the other .

This collaged hanger was created for a dear friend, I have known

for many, many years. 

She has the most beautiful blog ,showing her wonderful

creations - I`m sure many of you, know her, : Jillayne  A Fine Seam http://quiltingfabrications.blogspot.dk/

It is so lovely, to go on being in contact, with old blogging friends.

This amateur embroidery, is surely not to compare,

with Jillaynes stunning creations, but I love to 

have a needle in my hands, some evenings.

And a spring card, to just remember how

wonderful it will be, when it is here, -maybe late

next months !!

I used Tim Holz flower die, and word,- leaves, and buttons 

are other companies , -and old tea dyed laces, to create

the card, onto handmade paper. 

I hope your week is good, hope you enjoy it,

and hope you are all doing good !!

Hugs and love

COZY CREATIVENESS AND NATURE EXPERIENCES

A winter card created for a friend, using TH flower die , the sweet girls-head, 

is part of a wonderful winter stamp, I was gifted from my very dear Lynne ,

and the mitten and Let it snow, also received from a very dear friend , for Christmas.

Thank you both ! The white flower beneath , is wonderful 100% wool-and it 

is all layered onto a piece of corrugated cardboard !!

I love to dye little pieces of different fabrics and laces,

and here it is still in the pot, after a bath with tea, a few red onion shells,

and a green avocado shell. The tea won, and the other elements,

in fact also added to the rich brown tone. The laces still very light,are

only half cotton, and therefore does not accept the dye very well!!

From a walk last weekend, -no it is not my husbond, but someone unknown,

fishing there under the  sky and in the  sea!!

And here the coastline we walked, it was beautiful and sunny,

but very cold!!

We also walked through the forest, and here I am leaning against a beautiful, green-mossy branch,

can you tell from my clothes it is very cold ?? 

I`m wishing you a wonderful new week, starting tomorrow.

Thank you to everyone visiting, and commenting, it is so very much appreciated !!

Hugs and love from Dorthe 

HELLO JANUARY !!

Winter is here, but on and off , ....one day snow,

the other rain, so what better that stay inside for 

a little creative time !

This card I made for a friend, using papers

and Islandic moss for the nest.

The bird is a die cut from PaperArtsy

and the lovely stamp of leaves from Memory BOX .

I also used a piece of paper napkin  for the

stamping of quote , on the white layer,from behind

the postage stamps.

The color is Infusions Inks. 

This is a display on my chest of drawers.

I could not lay away the stunning  angel stander, I was gifted

of my dear friend Lynne, after Christmas, so it is still here,

and also the most beautiful card she created for me. 

Both so gorgeous, and amazing.

The old silver bowl holds hearts from friends, and to the left

I have my collection of little,old ,red jewelry boxes .

I hope your first January week was filled with lovely hours, and wishes 

you all a wonderful new week.

Hugs and love

Dorthe

*******************************************

And this is a beautiful gift I received from another very dear friend 

Marie http://marie-lostbirdstudio.blogspot.dk/

 The most wonderful and so lovely

card  and star.

The card  with the warm dressed girl , so very beautiful

 resting so adorable onto the cardboard, and the French paper, and I love the glittering snowflake

and the two tiny bells, all adhered to the beautiful embossed card.

And this stunning  and most beautiful star ornement , with lovely old paper,

laces and fabric. What you can`t see here, is that is so gorgeously

glittering in the light.

Marie also spoiled me with these beauties, to play with myself,

in white felt ,-you can see the wonderful paper she used behind.

And here the wonderful big snowflake !

Just had to show you the star hanging here, on a birdcage in

my tv room. Thank you my dearest Marie, I so love the gifts from you,

they are both gorgeous, and so adorable.

Hugs to you my friend .

And to all of you whom might have time visiting,

I wish you a Merry,Merry Christmas,

happy hours and joy, the many coming days !!

Hugs and love

A GIFT OF WINGS AND BEAUTY !!

Hello dear friends. 

This is my latest Christmas card, which I created yesterday.

It is not real finished here, as I forgot to take a picture

of it after having distressed the edge around Baby Jesus ,

with Archival  Ink -Hydrangea, but that is for your

imagination to see :-) 

The background is very thin paper, sprayed with infusions

stamped with the snowflake stamps, and using 

a snowflake stencil.

But back to the gift of wings !! 

I was dearly gifted a handful of wings from a lovely

friend last week, and she also added other lovely

pieces made in moulds.

I so love these wings ,and would love to be able buying 

the mould.

And on top of all that I also found this ,dearest

stocking ,handmade and so beautiful with pearls and laces. 

Thank you from my heart , my friend,

you really made my day special and filled with joy !!

I as some of you know, started decorating, and here are 

a few of my little Snow-angels from last year. 

Each in woolen coats, and skirts made from

old handkerchiefs ,with laces. 

Each bringing love !!

Thank you for visiting me, you are all so very

important and a beautiful part of my life .

Hugs and love

Dorthe
