Dve cvetlični / Two with flowers

Ker je ravno poletje in rože cvetijo v vsej svoji veličini, objavljam dve enostavni cvetlični.

Since it is summer and the flowers are in full bloom, I am posting two simple flowery cards.

Levček / Little lion

Tega levčka sem naredila za malega Leona, ki je praznoval svoj četrti rojstni dan. Motiv leva sem narisala ročno in ga izrezala, idejo za grivo pa sem našla na Pinterestu.

*****

I made this lion for little Leon, who celebrated his fourth birthday. I draw the motif, cut it with scissors and I got the idea for lion's mane from Pinterest.

Zahvalnica / Thank you card

Življenje včasih prinaša vzpone in padce - ko nam gre dobro se tisti, ki nas imajo radi veselijo z nami; ko pa pridejo temačni dnevi nam ti isti dobri ljudje podajo roko in nas vodijo iz teme. Ni iz trte izvit pregovor: "V nesreči spoznaš prijatelja." Ta zahvalnica je nastala za posebno osebo, ki mi je nudila pomoč, ko sem le-to potrebovala.
Poigrala sem se z Distress blazinicami in pričarala modrozeleno ozadje. Za piko na i pa sem dodala tri cvetove v kot. Prav tako sem okrasila notranjost, ki predstavlja zahvalo.

Life brings ups and downs - when we are doing well our loved ones rejoice with us; and when darker days come, they give us their hand and lead us out of the darkness. The proverb "A friend in need is a friend indeed" is not trumped-up in these cases. This thank you card was made for a special person, who helped me in time of need.
I played with distress ink pads and made a blue-green background. To make the card more coloured, I added the flowers in the corner. I also embellished the inside of the card, which expresses thanks.

My dad was celebrating his birthday this month and I made the following card for him. I have found the motif on the internet and coloured it with Promarkers. The cat represents our white shaggy cat at home, with whom they are good friends.

Pentlja / Bow

Tudi ta voščilnica je nastala že kar nekaj časa nazaj. Na osnovo sem zalepila potiskan papir z vrtnicami, le-to pa sem okrasila z večjo pentljo in gumbkom.

*****

I made this cad some time ago. I used the patterned paper with roses as a background, which I embellished with a big bow and a button.

Moška srajca / Men's shirt

Pri ustvarjanju moških voščilnic imam pogosto težave, saj ne vem kako najbolje skombinirati vseh delov, da bi izpadlo čim bolj nevtralno (brez rož, metuljčkov in bleščič). Drugače je za tematske voščilnice, te so po navadi lažje. Pri prebiranju blogov ostalih utvarjalk sem opazila, da nisem edina, ki se spopada s tem 'problemom' ali bolje rečeno izzivom :)
Idejo za spodnji voščilnici sem našla na Pinterestu. Na ovratnik sem želela nalepiti prave gumbke, a so bili vsi gumbki v moji ustvarjalni in mamini šivalni shrambi žal preveliki. Izdelava voščilnice je zelo enostavna, zatorej sem naredila kar dve, na zalogo.

While making male cards I often encounter problems, as I struggle how to combine all the parts in order for the card to appear neutral (without, flowers, butterflies, and tinsels). It is different for thematic cards, these are usually more simple to make. While reading blog post of fellows crafters, I noticed I am not the only one dealing with this 'problem' or better to say, challenge :)
I found the idea for the following card on Pinterest. I wanted to glue real buttons on the collar, but all the buttons in my crafting and my mum's stitching store were too big. The process of card making is very simple, therefore I made two, to keep in stock.

Modra sova / Wise owl

Ta sovica je nastala na hitro, saj se mi je zelo mudilo. Motiv sem našla na spletu in ga pobarvala s Promarkerji. Dodala sem še nekaj okraskov, a ne preveč, saj so prejemici všeč preproste stvari, po načelu "manj je več".

*****

This owl was made in a hurry. I have found the image on the internet and coloured it with Promarkers. I added also a few embellishments, but not too many, as the recipient prefers simple things, with the principle "less is more".
