Not an ATC.


It's fun to work on bigger formats than ATCs for a change. Here's a card for all the moms out there -- "I couldn't possibly take time off, says mom."

From my secret ATC friend / SATCY2



It's been snowing and snowing here since last night and when I finally got home (by foot), there was the most woderful envelope waiting for me! You can see a glimpse of the decorations above, together with a lovely card, and amazing goodies that came in the envie!

Kamala lumituisku senkun jatkuu ja olin kotiin tullessa aivan läpimärkä ja vihainen, mutta SATCY2-kierroksen eka yllärikuori pelasti päivän! Upeasti koristelu kuori, hauska kortti, ihania leikekuvia kauniissa pikkukansiossa ja superkivoja taustapapereita paketissa, jonka kääreen käytän keti askarteluun lankoineen kaikkineen! Kiitos vallan mainiosta paketista salainen ystäväni!

Pressure.



"I have felt this pressure in my chest".

Kid art.


DD made an ATC. My kid! The card is called Butterflies and a tulip.

Ah.


Combining Basic Grey with my fav. stamp cannot go wrong. Lucky me.

Thank you.


This one's for my sister, who spoils me and my DD. See, I used stickers!! / Siskolleni, joka lähettää ihania paketteja minulle ja pikkulikalle. Oho, mie käytin tarroja!

Updating my Flickr.

Put some new cards on Flickr. Available.

Ear infection.

Got myself an ear infection. No wonder it's hard to hear (let alone understand) what people are saying. I'm going to clean the kitchen first and then make some cards, I wanna try out moos :) But in the meanwhile, why don't you go and enjoy a cuppa!

Somebody loves me.



Old book page, aged with inks, stamps from Finnstamper.

Muse.


Vintage music sheet with a bit of inking to add aging, lovely lady from Finnstamper and text stamp by MaVinci. Ah, keeping it simple!

Scraps.


I have a bowl on my desk where I put all bits and pieces that are left over from bigger projects, and also stuff I get as extras with swaps. This little fella was there, too :)

Good housekeeper vs. bad housekeeper.


Decide for yourselves, which is better, to be a good housekeeper with a bit of spark or a bad housekeeper with a very glittery life (and head, had a bit of an accident with the glitter pot...). Or is it really the other way around?

Buried in Papers.

For the past two days I've been buried in papers. Unfortunately not the pretty patterned kind, but in articles and books that I need to read to finalise my Master's thesis. Something I decided a very long time ago not to do, but of course had to change my mind a couple of times... I have set myself a goal for today and once I've reached it, I will take out a box of crafting goodies and do something fun!

Wish me luck!

Final mail from secret friend, Satcy.

One of the things we did during the round of secret ATC friends was send materials for three cards and receive the finalised cards.

You can see what I sent to Piia here, and out of the very green materials she made these pretty cards:

Helmetti sent me the materials in this post and this is what she got in return:




Eli nyt se on ohi, hauska ja inspiroiva Satcy. Kiitos Sandylle, kiitos Helmetille, kiitos Piialle, kiitos kaikille. Oli kivaa!

Package of Joy.

EDIT: Both packages are spoken for / molemmat paketit varattu!

I received a huge box of goodies from my dear friend Anja. It was called a package of joy and it's meant for sharing -- I get to pick out those goodies I like and add good stuff that I don't use from my stash. My favourite kind of recycling!

I will probably split the package up to two or three smaller ones, so if you are interested in getting one, please drop me a line at moonunit36__AT__gmail.com.
********************************

Lisäys suomeksi: Eli sain saksalaiselta ystävältäni "paketillisen askarteluiloa", jossa oli kaikkia upeita materiaaleja skrappaukseen ja korttiaskarteluun. Tarkoitus on, että otan mitä haluan, ja lisään tilalle omista materiaaleistani hyviä, mutta tarpettomia. Aion kuitenkin jakaa tuon laatikon sisällön ainakin kahteen, että postikulut pysyvät aisoissa. Jos haluat osallistua, ja saada siis minulta kuoren täynnä askartelujuttuja (enimmäkseen koristeita, myös skrappaukseen sopivia), josta voit ottaa mieleisesi ja lisätä omista tavaroistasi tilalle, niin laita viestiä moonunit36 miukuumaukuunaukuu gmail.com :)

Secrets revealed / Satcy paljastuu...


I had so much fun during the first round of Satcy, Secret ATC Friend! I received amazing goodies from Helmetti, and got to spoil Piia myself!


Kiitos Satcy-kierroksen uskomattoman ihanalle ystävälleni Helmetille, jonka henkilöllisyyttä en arvannut, vaikka bloginsa tuttu onkin! Kiitos tuhannesti kaikesta, ja ensi viikolla saat sitten ne kolme korttia, joiden ainekset lähetit :)

Itse sain ilahduttaa Piiaa, joka olikin uusi tuttavuus! Alankin hetimiten ehdottelemaan korttivaihtoja sekä Piialle että Helmetille :)
