being mia and a card/bookmark

Good morning everybody and welcome!

Did you miss me? Well, I've been missing you since we started our moving journey back in March. And oh boy, it was exhausting! But now we are here in our new home and we are already kind of settled in ... well, kind of :).

I hope that I will be back at my crafting table a lot more than I've been in the past. But I don't make promisses. My DH will be deployed by the end of June and so I don't know how things will be going here around the Hartmann ranch but I hope to do my best, okay?

Thank you for staying with me and stopping by every now and then.

For today I have a little project to share with you. You remember the International Inkers? Well, this month it was my turn to put together a kit. I have so much paper from SU that I decided to dive into it even though it is retired and lots of cards were already shown with it.... I like it and I send it out to

Imke

Michelle

Paola

Karen and

Catherine

The kits were loaded with some extra goodies to play with and this gorgeous little image from Whiff of Joy - couldn't resist :)

What do you think? Do you like my little project? Any suggestions for doing better? Please let me know by leaving a comment and you will be in for the drawing. The giveaway will be a card kit - the same that I sent out to the other girls :) *waving* (no pics here of the kit so it will be a surprise!)

Thank you for swinging by today

Special hugs

cqc52 - happy birthday colorQ

Hi there,

here is another colorQ card for you today. Due to the fact that colorQ celebrate it's first birthday today (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!) Arielle challenged us to create a card based on a sketch and with our favorite past colorQ combo.

I chose cQc #22 because I just love those combo - airy and breezy *happy sigh*. And I was in a need of a bookmark/ card so I decided to combine both.

This is the inside of the card.

I borrowed this "special" perforation cutter from my SiL and I think I need one for myself. This thingy cut the perforation exactly there where it belongs - love it! And after you finished reading thecard you just rip of the bookmark and use for whatever book you are reading - GREAT!

The sentiments and images are from PTI "All booked up" set - which is just the perfect set for all this little book related gifties .

That'll be all for today. Please stop at the coloQ blog and celebrate with us - and of course don't forget to check out the cards from the DT - they rocked the challenge :)

Hugs Tanja

P:S: - will be back later with the supply-list - kids are screaming and bleeding :::rolleyes:::
