My name is Dawn and I am an American living in Norway. I love working with my hands. I make cards, dog collars, knit, and crochet to keep my hands busy. I'll primarily have cards and collars on here, hence the name, but will occasionally have pictures of other handmade items. We are an international family so you can send questions in either

english or norwegian.

~About the cards~

All cards are made on a 250gsm card base with decorative papers, stamps, inks, and embellishments to create a custom theme. All cards are unique and can be personalized. It's somewhat rare for me to put any sentiments or text inside the card. I think something handwritten and straight from the heart is what works best for people to know you are thinking about them and care. :)

~About the collars~

Most are 1" wide. The details will be listed under each photo. Most collars fit medium-sized dogs, i.e, Border Collie. I started making collars because I couldn't find cute and simple collars in Norway. Since I have 4 dogs, it's much easier to just buy the raw materials and make them myself. But I found myself enjoying it so, now there are lots of extras. :)

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek.! Dawn

Jeg heter Dawn og jeg er en amerikaner som bor i Norge. Jeg er en hjemmeværende mamma for min unge sønn, . Jeg elsker å jobbe med hendene mine og noen av mine favoritt aktiviteter er å lage kort og hundebånd eller å strikke / hekle. Av det jeg lager så finner du først og fremst kort og halsbånd her, derav navnet. Men jeg vil også legge ut bilder andre håndlagde gjenstader etter hvert som jeg har dem tilgjengelig. Siden vi er en internasjonal familie så kan du sende meg en melding på norsk eller engelsk.

~Om kortene~

Alle kort er laget med 250 g/m^2 papir som grunnlag. Og dekorative papir, stempling, fargelegging er brukt til å lage tilpassede tema. Alle kort er unik og kan være personlig. Jeg synes at noe håndskrevet og rett fra hjertet er det som fungerer best for folk å vite at du tenker på dem og bryr deg, så derfor er kortene blanke inni. :)


~Om halsbåndene~

De fleste er 2.5cm brede og passer til mellomstore hunder (ca. Border Collie storellse). Du finner mer detaljer om de enkelte halsbåndene i teksten under bildet. Jeg begynte å lage halsbånd fordi jeg ikke kunne finne søte og enkle halsbånd i Norge. Siden jeg har 4 hunder så var det mye lettere å kjøpe råvarene og lage dem selv. Og jeg syntes at det var artig, så nå er det mange eksemplarer og statister. ;)

Takk for at du kommer innom og tar en titt.

I was talking to a friend the other night (actual voice talking, I'm so old school but modern because it was a video chat?) and decided to color something random to keep my hands busy (iykyk). I ended up coloring this piece and thought it could be used for a night sky, which it became today. Have a great weekend!

After a very long hiatus, I figured I'd post a little of what I've been up to. I got back into my office about 2 weeks ago and made some new Perle art for my son's room. He's been very into games on Switch so I decided on the major'ish Mario characters and 2 from Kirby. He has informed me he wants all the 'evil bosses' as well so I guess I'm not done with perle yet.

I expect to get back on track in the next week or so with streaming, Copics, and watercolor projects. And an occasional perle project as well, apparently. 🙃

If you're new here, welcome! This is where I post all of my art and projects. If you've been here for a while, you'll know that I post somewhat inconsistently but that I will be posting more often. 😊

Thank you, all of you, for the wonderful support throughout the year! I really appreciate you more than you know. ❤️
I will return in 2023, hopefully energized and inspired to create more fantastical things. It may be in a different way than you're used to, so you're not surprised. I'm having a small crisis of creativity and have some figuring out to do on how to continue growing myself and offerings. That sounds bad but I promise it's not. 😊
If you've made it down this far, please accept my warmest wishes for this holiday season! A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours!
God jul og Godt nytt år! ❤️

This Kinder Maxi book is one of my favorite new items for this year. I custom made it to fit a dozen Kinder bars and be durable enough to have as a holder of secret items on a child's dresser or a beautiful addition to a Christmas table. Come and see it for yourself at the Julemarked at .showcase.
