Monday Madness with new projects

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I attended a calligraphy class not too long ago and I have a special project in mind so I had to buy gold ink meant for calligraphy. I need to try it out and I might share my impressions and ideas for cards using this ink :)

Ne tako dolgo nazaj sem se udeležila kaligrafske delavnice v Rayher Ljubljana. Trenutno moram na hitro preizkusiti svoje pridobljeno znanje, vendar sem morala za to kupiti zlat tuš. Malo ga moram preizkusiti, pa se morda spomnim še kakšne ideje za uporabo na voščilnicah in jo delim z vami. 

I wish you a great week!

Želim vam super teden!

Friday Fun with Painted Flowers

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

Sometimes you just need to stamp and have some fun. That is not hard with this stamp set from Altenew :)

Vsake toliko časa moraš preprosto odtisniti kakšno stvar in se pri tem zabavati. Ta set štampiljk od Altenew je kot nalašč ravno za to :)

Have a great weekend!

Želim vam en super vikend!

Work Time Wednesday Watercolouring

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I just can't get enough of Flora and Fauna 2 stamp set from Wplus9. It's the perfect set to watercolour and so I did just that. I used Distress ink and made my own palette.

Ne morem se naveličati Flora and Fauna 2 seta štampiljk od Wplus9. Motivi so idealni za akvarel in točno to sem danes naredila. Za barvanje sem uporabila Distress blazinice. 

Thank you for coming over and have a great day!

Hvala za obisk in želim vam super dan!

Playing with Hero Arts Background Technique Pieces

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

Last week I made a couple of background pieces and I used Distress Ink and blended lighter shade on a piece of cardstock and then clear heat embossed Hero Arts background stamp over that. After heating it I used the darker shade and blended it all over the background. For this one I used Squeezed Lemonade and Abandoned Coral. I made two cards by cutting a circle out of the background piece. 

Prejšnji teden sem naredila dve ozadji s pomočjo Distress blazinic in štampiljk za ozadje Hero Arts. Najprej sem senčila kos kartona s svetlejšim odtenkom Distress blazinice in nato preko s prozornim embosirnim prahom odtisnila Hero Arts ozadje. Celotno ozadje sem nato senčila s temnejšim odtenkom Distress blazinice. Današnje ozadje sem naredila s Squeezed Lemonade in Abandoned Coral Distress blazinico. Z njegovo pomočjo sem naredila dve voščilnici, saj sem iz osnove izrezala krog in tako uporabila negativ in pozitiv. 

I have another background piece and I will show you what I did with it next week.

Na zalogi imam še eno ozadje, končni izdelek pa boste videli naslednji teden. 

Have a great day!

Želim vam super dan! 

Monday Madness All Over the Place

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

It's not just my desk that is all over the place, it's also my head :) Weather is finally geting warmer and I like it :)

Ni samo moja miza v totalnem neredu, enako je v moji glavi :) Temperature so končno malo višje in več je sončka, kar mi je izjemno všeč :)

Have a great week!

Želim vam super teden!

Friday Fun in Blue

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I love the look of pattern paper. When other people use it. I forget to use mine :( I need to work on that. I used it to make an onesie out of it today.

Zelo mi je všeč vzorčast papir. Sploh ko ga uporabi nekdo drug. Na svojega prevečkrat pozabim :( Danes sem ga uporabila za dojenčkov bodi. 

Thank you for coming over and have a great weekend!

Hvala za obisk in želim vam super sončen vikend.

Work Time Wednesday Watercolour Bleaching

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I saw a video by Kelly Latevola on Simon Says Stamps YouTube channel and wanted to play with that technique she called Watercolor Bleaching. I used three different Distress colours instead of one colour in different shades and made a few highlights by bleaching the ink and then added some Stickles and Liquid Pearls all over the card. 

Pred kratkim sem videla posnetek Kelly Latevola za YouTube kanal Simon Says Stamp, tako da sem se želela malo poigrati s tehniko, ki jo je uporabila in jo poimenovala watercolor bleaching (beljenje akvarelov oz. nekaj takega). Namesto ene barve v več odtenkih sem uporabila tri različne blazinice in odstranila nekaj barve s pomočjo vode. Na koncu sem dodala nekaj Stickles bleščic in belih Liquid Pearls pikic. 

This card is similar to one I did a few weeks ago, but it's a different technique that I wanted to experiment with. I hope you like it and I wish you a great day!

Podobno voščilnico sem že naredila nekaj tednov nazaj, vendar sem uporabila povsem različni tehniki. Upam, da vam je moj eksperiment všeč in vam želim fantastičen dan!

Voščilnico prijavljam v CRAFT-alnico Distress Ink blazinice (uporabila sem Abandoned Coral, Seedless Preserves in Mermaid Lagoon).

Monday Madness # 51

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

It's been too long :) I hope I'm back full term and I felt I needed to clean my space before I get started. Is it in human nature to work better with clean workspace? I don't know if you feel the same but if I have a few minutes I will clean up first. I don't always have time/will/energy to clean after but I feel better if I clean before I start. 

Res je že zelo dolgo odkar sem nazadnje pisala tukaj :) Upam, da sem resnično nazaj tako, kot je treba in zato je bila prva naloga pospraviti mizo. Res ne vem, če je v človeški naravi, da bolje delamo s pospravljeno okolico, ampak me zanima kako je to pri vas? Če le imam nekaj minut, rada najprej pospravim svoj prostor. Po ustvarjanju nimam vedno časa/volje/energije, da bi pospravila, se pa počutim bolje, če pospravim vsaj preden začnem. 

I hope you are still here somewhere waiting for me to come back :) I hope you have a great week! 

Upam, da ste še vedno kje v bližini in čakate, da se ponovno spravim k ustvarjanju :) Želim vam čudovit teden!
