Hi there

Its crocheted in the yarn called RIO, a really soft and great yarn.

Garnet var väldigt mjukt och härligt att arbeta med.

Hi again,

Today its time for another triangle scarf that I made for Mona, here its the yarn Signe that I have used again.

****

Hej igen

Idag får ni se en lite annorlunda triangelsjal som jag virkat till vännen Mona.
Det är återigen garnet Signe jag har använt.
I had soooo much fun doing this one.
I actually made it just after the stitches on my thumb had been removed, and I was still in a HUGE LOT of pain, so I feel really proud of the result.

Now I am really interrested of what You think of it. =)

*****

Jag hade såååå kul när jag gjorde denna, det var många luftmaskor kan jag säga ;-)
Jag gjorde den faktist precis efter att de tagit bort stygnen på tummen så jag hade fortfarande ENORMT ont, så just därför är jag extra stolt över resultatet.

Nu är jag bara nyfiken på vad NI tycker =)

Have been a way from my blog for a looooong time....



I have some news and that is that I from now on will write in this blog in BOTH English and Swedish.

 I am back, FINALLY.
Have Anyone missed me? ;-)

We moved in the end of May last year, and after that a LOT of things have happened, most Hard things I am sorry to say.

One thing that I can tell you about is that I got a bad infection in my right thumb last fall.
That got SO bad so the doctor had to amputate half of my right thumb in the end of May this year..

*******

Nu är jag ÄNTLIGEN tillbaka, hoppas ni har saknat mig?! :)

Vi flyttade ju i maj förra året och efter det har det hänt en massa saker, tyvärr mest jobbiga-

För er som inte sett det på min Facebook-sida, så åkte jag på ett nageltrång i min högra tumme, som sen blev en infektion och till sist blev det benröta-

Detta ledde till att jag tycärr blev  tnungen att amputera halva tummen.

This is How it looks now, not too bad after all.
I am grateful that the infection, that had spred to the bones, hadnt spread further up in the finger...If it had I would have lost the whole thumb.

I still have a meeting with the doctor left, and If all goes well I Will be completely cleared from the infection.
So I hope that you Will keep fingers crossed that all goes well when I meet the doctor again in October.

Another thing I have done since last Summer is crocheting....It is sooo fun.
I Will show you one of the things that I have made today and more in the following days.

*****


Detta är hur det ser ut nu, inte så illa trots allt. Jag är tacksam att infektionen, som hade spritt sig till skelettet, inte hade gått högre upp i fingret ... hade den gjorft det skulle jag ha förlorat hela tummen. Jag har fortfarande ett möte med läkaren kvar, och om allt går väl jag kommer att vara helt friskförklarad från infektionen. Så jag hoppas att ni håller tummarna att allt går bra när jag träffar läkaren igen i oktober. En annan sak som jag har gjort sedan förra sommaren är virka .... det är sååå kul. Jag ska visa en av de saker som jag har gjort i dag och jag kommer att visa mer här från och med nu.


Its a neverending scarf that I made using the yarn Signe that we can buy in a store chain here in Sweden Every now and then. 

Hope you like it.
And I Hope that all is well with you.

Many hugs from Linda 

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

Det är en neverending-halduk som jag gjort med garnet Signe som man kan köpa i butikskedjan NETTO lite då och då.

Hoppas ni tyckte om den.
Och jag hoppas att allt är bra med er.

Många kramar från Linda

I am back....


I am finally back on track after being really sick for a while.
I got the flu and in just 4 days it went into a double sided pneumonia that sent me to the hospital.

They had to give me a strong dose of penicillin straight into the blood, and after that I have been really low, and forced to be in bed for a long time.

Finally I am starting to feel better, but I am still eating penicillin.

I am still struggeling, but there are always someone else that feels worse, so I try to stay optimistic. 


In this period we lost our orange cat, Simba, and its really empty without him.
He was my guardian angel and always let my husband know when I was getting ill....so he was really special to us.



After this we got a new family member, the cute little dog Flisan.
Her previous owner was going to move back to Norway, so we were asked if we would like to have her.
Of course we said yes, and up til now my hubby has been taking care of her...but now I have started to take her out more when my strength has returned,
She is 3 years old and a real doll, and the cats love her. =)

*****

Well, this is my update for now.
Hope to see you all soon.

Guest-DT for Pysseldags - Old love never dies...

Hi there,

Hope you´ve had a great crafty week, wherever you are.

I have had a week with a nasty cold, pain in my knee efter a bad fall last saturday night, and, like if this wasnt enough; toothache.
But I can manage this, I comfort myself with that it could have been a lot worse. =)

Even this week I have made a card in a Love-theme....



I have used the sentiment GAMMAL KÄRLEK ROSTAR ALDRIG (translated: Old love never dies) that you can get both as


I have also used the stamp
HJÄRTAN PÅ RAD. (translated "Hearts on a row")

Even that one is avaliable both as  DIGITAL och som RUBBERSTAMP

In other words, just to pick and choose. =)


The backing paper is (of course) my favorite oaper from IMAGINE THAT! 

As decorations this time, I have used a red cherryblosssom, some white flowers and red Rhinestones.

Now, have a great week, and remember, I LOVE your comments.

Creative Knockouts - A Hug Card

Hi my friends,

I have made another card for


And even this time its a card with the stunning image from the sponsor


I have made a simple, but yet sweet Birthday-card for you as my first project for Creative Knockouts.




I colored the flowers with my promarkers, in blue colors.
Then I used my White Wink of Stella-pen to create some effects.
After a while I realized that the white pen maybe now was the smartest choice, but then I colored the edges of the flowers with some more blue, and I got really surprised with how beautiful the result got.
I will really use this combo in other projects. 

When the colors had dried a bit I painted the flowers with the clear glitter Wink of Stella-pen, but just as the last card its hard to get a glitter to show up good in the picture.
I PROMISE that its even more pretty when you see it live.


As I final touch I added some white and green flowers and some blue rhinestones.

At the moment I wonder if this is too much to be concidered as a CAS-card, so I really need your oppinion here.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges

Well....now I look forward to see what you think of my card.

Creative Knockouts #77 - A Birthday card

Hi my friends,

I have some news for you....I am now a


I am so very happy for this opportunity, and I hope that you will like my cards that I will show you from now on.

This weeks sponsor is 


I have made a simple, but yet sweet Birthday-card for you as my first project for Creative Knockouts.



I colored the bird and flowers with my promarkers, and then I used my 2 Wink of Stella-pens to create some effects.
Its just too bad that its hard to get pictires that give the card justice, I can assure you that the card is even more blingy when you see it live.

I felt that there was something missing, so I took a sponge and made a blue background.

As I final touch I added some red rhinestones.

Well....now I look forward to see what you think of my card.

The beautyful sentiment stamp is a  DIGITAL stamp and its really one of my favourit ones.
