Obletnica poroke / Wedding anniversary

Ta mesec sem na Facebook strani priredila nagradno igro za vse moje sledilce. Nagrada je bila izdelava voščilnice po naročilu. Žreb je srečo prinesel Marii, ki si je zaželela voščilnico za obletnico poroke svojih staršev. Zaupala mi je, da je to njuna 49 obletnice poroke, vse ostalo pa je prepustila moji domišljiji. Odločila sem se za pastelno rumeno in belo barvo v kombinaciji z zlato. V osrednji del voščilnice sem postavila obok okrašen z rožam, skozi njega pa stopa par - želela sem ponazoriti njuno skupno pot skozi življenje. Kot znak ljubezni pa sem na vrh dodala še dva zlata ptička.

This month I organized a prize draw for the followers of my Facebook  page. The prize was a custom-made card and the lucky winner was Maria. She desired a card for her parents' 49th wedding anniversary. I decided to use pastel yellow and white colours in combination with gold. In the central part of the card I put the arch embellished with flowers and a couple walking underneath - I wanted to illustrate their journey through life. As a symbol of love, I put two golden birds above.

I enter the card to the following challenges:

Beležka za Kalido / Notebook for Kalida

V tej objavi vam pokažem kako sem okrasila beležko za punčko. Platnice sem polepila z živahnim papirjem z rožicami, na naslovno stran pa sem dodala motiv punčke z gugalnim konjem (štampiljka Gorjus, motiv pobarvan s Promarkerji). Na naslovno platnico pa seveda sodi tudi ime prejemnice. Ker je ozadje že samo po sebi zelo pisano, nisem uporabila veliko dodatnih okraskov.

In this post I want to show how I embellished a notebook for a girl. First, I stuck the covers with patterned paper with lovely flowers. On the front cover I added an image of a girl with a rocking horse (stamp by Gorjuss, coloured with Promarkers) and a label with the name. Since the background is very lively I did not use too many other embellishments.

Medo / Bear

Prejšnji vikend me je poštar razveselil s prav posebnim paketom. Ko sem občudovala Vladkine motive pobarvane z barvicami, se nisem mogla upreti, da to poizkusim tudi sama. Naročila sem set 36 barvic Faber-Castell (Polychromos), saj mi je bilo všeč, da imajo zelo veliko pigmenta. Na akvarelni papir sem natisnila motiv medvedka is serije štampiljk Fizzy Moon, ki je bil v moji shrambi že kar nekaj let, a nikoli uporabljen. Na začetku sem malce oklevala, potem pa je kar steklo, čeprav sem za barvanje motiva porabila kar nekaj časa. Medvedka sem potem umestila med meni ljube rožnate tone in dodala zgolj še pentljo v rahli srebni barvi, saj je motiv glavna zvezda voščilnice.

Last weekend I got a special delivery. After I admired how Vladka coloured the images with coloured pencils, I could not resist to try it myself. I ordered a set of 36 Faber-Castell (Polychromos) colour pencils since I liked their rich pigmentation. I took a Fizzy Moon stamp motif of a bear, which was in my storage for years, but never used, and I stamped it on the watercolour paper. At first, I was a bit hesitant with colouring, but then I slowly got into it, although it took me quite a while, to colour the whole image. In making the card I used patterned papers in my favourite pink colours and added just a light silver ribbon since the bear is the main focus of the card.

To voščilnico sem izdelala ko se mi je malce mudilo. Še največ časa sem porabila za izbiro usklajenega papirja in trakcev, ter za zavezovanje pentelj.

I made this card when I was in a hurry. I spent most of the time selecting the appropriate papers and ribbons and of course, for making the little bows.

Še ena okrogla / Another milestone

Po objavi prejšnje voščilnice me je kontaktirala znanka. Za sestrin 40. rojstni dan si je zaželela podobno voščilnico. Ohranila sem podobno postavitev, le papirje sem izbrala v bolj ženskih, rožnatih tonih in dodala slavljenkino ime.

After posting the card in the previous post, I was contacted by a friend. She asked me if I could make a similar card for her sister's 40th birthday. I used a similar setting but chose different patterned papers in more female, pink tones and added the birthday girl's name.

This card was made for my brother in law's milestone birthday. I used different cuttings in matching colours and put the number in the focal part of the card.
