Work Time Wednesday (on a Thursday again) # 19

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I had a crazy week so yesterday kind of slipped out of my mind. I'm sorry. It's a holiday in Slovenia today so I have time to catch up. Since we are in the middle of wedding season I thought I could dedicate a few Wednesdays to that topic. Today I have a butterfly die cut and embossing paste over pattern paper sample for you. Pattern paper has some glitter accents and I think embossing paste over it looks great and adds some dimension without adding the bulk. Congratulation die is from Najlepši par.

Še dobro, da je ta teden malo krajši kot običajen, ker je bila prva polovica povsem nora. Tako mi je včeraj nekako uspelo, da sem padla v posteljo brez objave na blogu. Še dobro, da je danes praznik, da lahko malo nadoknadim. Ker smo na sredini sezone porok, sem se odločila, da par objav posvetim tej temi. Danes imam za vas pripravljeno verzijo z izrezanimi metulji in embosirno pasto preko vzorčastega papirja. Papir ima nekaj bleščečih poudarkov, embosirna pasta pa neredi nekaj dimenzije brez dodane debeline. Efekt mi je zelo všeč. 

I love butterflies for wedding cards. What do you think?

Obožujem metulje na poročnih voščilnicah. Kaj pa se vam zdi? 

Have a great day and thank you for coming here even if it's a day late.

Želim vam super dan in hvala za obisk tudi ko je objava en dan prepozno.

Try It Out Thursday # 2

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

There was no Try It Out Thursday for some time, but I'm back with another experiment. I bought Ranger Sticky embossing powder to try and use it instead of Flitter glue by IndigoBlu for the Metallic Flakes. I used Flitter glue before and it's a bit messy and my stamps were sticky even after I cleaned them like you are supposed to. Sticky embossing powder sounds much easier so I tried it.

Že nekaj časa ni bili takšne objave v četrtek, ampak danes sem nazaj z manjšim eksperimentom. Kupila sem Ranger Sticky embosirni prah da bi ga uporabila namesto Flitter lepila, ki ga je IndigoBlu predvideval za uporabo z metalnimi lističi. Delo s tem lepilom se mi je zdelo malce preveč "lepljivo", saj so bile štampiljke lepljive še nekaj časa, čeprav sem jih očistila tako, kot je rečeno v navodilih. Lepljiv embosirni prah se mi je zdel malce manj zapleten, tako da sem želela poskusiti. 

 

I used Versamark and Sticky embossing powder like any other but when I heated it up it got sticky. I pressed the flakes on top of that and the rub it away with the sponge. The flakes are still a bit messy, but they stuck on top of the image. 

Prah sem uporabila tako kot vsak drug embosirni prah z Versamark blazinico. Ko sem ga segrela se je spremenil v lepljiv odtis na katerega sem pritisnila metalne lističe. Vse skupaj sem dobro zdrgnila z gobico, ki je namenjena temu. Lisiči so še vedno precej nadležni, saj je na koncu njihov prah povsod, ampak končni rezultat je vseeno zelo lep, tako da se splača. 

My thoughts? Sticky is convenient as far as cleaning your stamp goes and al the stickiness left behind, but I think that Flitter glue captures more detail and the surface is a bit uneven. Flakes still sparkle beautifully so I think it's a good alternative. I can't wait to try this with glitter.

Moje mnenje? Sticky prah je zelo priročen kar se tiče čiščenja štampiljk in ukvarjanja z lepljivimi pripomočki, je pa res, da Flitter lepilo ohrani več podrobnosti odtisa, površina odtisa pa je precej bolj gladka kot pri uporabi prahu. Lističi se še vedno zelo lepo bleščijo, tako da mislim, da je Sticky embosirni prah vseeno super alternativa lepilu. Preizkusiti ga bo potrebno še z bleščicami. 

Thank you for coming over and have a great day.

Hvala za obisk in želim vam čudovit dan.

Work Time Wednesday # 13 (on a Thursday)

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni! 

I'm a day late... I apologise... I had a huge exam on Tuesday. I'm officially a teacher now and it's an amazing feeling (I just need a job now). But that means I was studying like crazy and completely caput yesterday. Absolutely no energy to work on a card. But today I got to play a little and I decided to play with my last bought things from Najlepši par. I made a wedding or a classy birthday card today since that sentiment says Congratulations. I took inspiration from one of my orchids that are white with purple spots. I cut pieces of orchids from watercolour paper, wetted them and dropped some Distress ink in Seedless Preserves on them with a brush. 

Zamujam en dan... Se iskreno opravičujem, vendar sem imela v torek popoldne strokovni izpit in sem bila včeraj povsem brez energije. Sedaj sem učiteljica z vsemi izpolnjenimi zahtevami, samo še službo je potrebno dobit. Po 14ih dneh intenzivnega učenja sem bila včeraj resnično povsem kaput. Danes pa sem se uspela spraviti k ustvarjalni mizi in se odločila, da bo moj fokus za par tednov moj zadnji nakup pri Najlepšem paru. Naredila sem poročno voščilnico, ki bi lahko bila tudi zelo elegantna rojstnodnevna voščilnica. Inspiracija za barve je bila ena izmed mojih orhidej, ki je bela z vijoličastimi pikami. Cvetove sem najprej izrezala iz akvarelnega papirja in jih zmočila, nato pa sem s čopičem prenesla nekaj Distress blazinice v barvi Seedless Preserves in pustila, da se je barva razlezla po svoje. 

I hope you had a less stressful beginning of this week and thank you for waiting another day for this card. 

Upam, da je bil vaš začetek tedna precej manj stresen in najlepša hvala za potrpežljivost.

Voščilnico dodajam v galerijo Najlepšega para za mesec maj.

Work Time Wednesday # 8

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

I have another card with amazing Painted Flowers by Altenew. I used those roses with some masking this time and made a wedding/anniversary themed card (sentiment says Day of most wonderful dreams). 

Danes imam za vas novo voščilnico s čudovitim setom Painted Flower proizvajalca Altenew. Te čudovite vrtnice sem uporabila z masko v obliki srca in naredila voščilnico za poroko ali morda obletnico poroke.

Thank you for coming over and have a great day!

Hvala za obisk in želim vam čudovit dan!
