Remember this *DT Scraps of Darkness*

Here is a layout made with the fabolous September kit "the black album" by Scraps of Darkness.

Finally a project that's not totally "black" LOL
Have to admit, I really loved this kit and you probably will see more from that kit from me later on.

This is my final official project as DT at Scraps of Darkness and I have had so much fun playing with the kits.
Melinda puts the most faboulous kits together for us!!

I love this photo!! And know for sure that this will be scrapped several times.

The setting, the feeling, just everything!
It was taken this summer when we were staying at a cabin down sout in Norway.

Our youngest daughter were playing at the pier, trying to cath some crabs.
Using prawns and mussels as bait.
Suddenly a cat came, probably felt the smell.
And the cat followed her wherever she went.

(sorry about the photo, the colors are totally wrong on the first on)

Card *DT Scraps of Darkness*

Here is another card , made for Scraps of Darkness and the gorgeous September kit - "the black album".

The kit was really cool to play with, with all that black and white!
Just look at that gorgeous trim by Webster's also included in the kit - love it!!

Reveal Day at Scraps of Darkness

Hi again, I'm back with two more projects for Scraps of Darkness Reveal day.
Still the faboluous September kit "the black album".

Can't help it, I just loved all the black and I'm so happy that I have lots of papers left!!

First a card. I wanted to make it rather simple, but somehow the gorgeos trim by Webster's and the lovely pin tempted me, so the card looked totally different in the end, than I had planned. (often happens to me)

Next is a layout, with our youngest daughter, having a good time and playing with some goats in a Zoo, this summer.

Had to use some colors togheter with the black here, really loved the look of it:

Beauty - DT Scraps of Darkness

Did you see the fabolous September-kit from Scraps of Darkness? 

It's called "the black album". This kit is loaded with gorgeous papers and embellishments and I'm so happy to be playing with it! 

Just wish I had more hours during the day LOL 

Here is the kit:

and the gorgeous sketch by Suepup, also included:

This will be my last month as designer for Scraps of Darkness. I have really enjoyd playing with the kits and will for sure miss it.

So here is my take on the sketch, with our oldest daughter at her graduation day earlier this year.

This is also very much inspired by the mood board at Scrap around the world.

I just loved the bold black! So inspiring! Just look:

Will be back with more projects with this kit soon.

Pure life - DT Scraps of Darkness and Art Anthology

Hi again folks :)

Today I'm back with a layout made with the fabolous August-kit "Rustic" by Scraps of Darkness and also Colorations by Art Anthology. Perfect match!!

I have used papers by Authentique (from the "rustic-kit"), some Gesso, different stamps and Colorations "Peacock feather" and Timeless by Art Anthology.

The photo is a tower of bells, placed in our lake Mjøsa. Each hour the bells start playing different melodies. You can hear it from a long distance.

Altered box - DT Scraps of Darkness

I had really fun altering this box (previously a box for Whiskey). I used lots of stuff from the August-kit "Rustic" by Scraps of Darkness.

Here is the box before I started and also the papers I used , Kaisercraft Base Coat II collection

First I covered the box whith Gesso and also used distress ink on the edges.

Then I started to decorate the box, on all sides top+bottom (I plan to decorate the top a bit more)
Used the stencil included in the kit with Shimmerz TextureZ (included in a previous kit) random places on the background.
I also added inks and paints on the lace.

My black Gelato is my best friend and here I've used it on the apple chipboards included in the kt: (also used it several other places on the box, where you see black - it's the black Gelato ♥ )

I have been playing with this kit for several projcets and two of them ready to show you today:
First, a layout of myself again, almost vintage but a bit "Rustic" (as the name of the kit)

Last month I was published in a Norwegian scrapbooking-magazing, Et Trykk.
Had lots of pages showing several of my work, layouts, canvases, cards and journals.
Will be showing some of it a bit later.
Anyhow, I had to take a picture of the magazine with the photo of me and of course, had to scrap that as well!

The next one I'm showing is a couple of mixed media cards.
Our yougest daughter is playing soccer and her coaches will get a small gift after season and I was asked to make some cards for them.

Maybe hard to see, but I actually used the papers by Kaisercraft Basecoat as a base here, but they are inked and misted a lot. Also added some texture with molding paste and stamps.
