A Pocketful of Stamps

Monday Madness # 22

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

It's been a long day but I did some colouring and you can see a sneak peek on my table :) Come back on Wednesday to see how it comes together.

Za mano je precej dolg dan, tako da sem se lotila malce barvanja za relaksacijo. Majhen delček lahko vidite na moji mizi, za celotno voščilnico pa se vrnite v sredo, ko vam pokažem končen rezultat.

Have a great week!

Želim vam en super teden!

Friday Fun # 18

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

I don't know about you, but I have some difficulty with masculine cards. I have to try really hard to make it work. I think I need to remember this colour combination for next time because I think it works. Colours and geometric shapes and I think I got it :)

Ne vem za vas, vendar jaz imam vedno probleme z moškimi voščilnicami. Moram se kar konkretno potruditi, da naredim voščilnico, ki mi je všeč in je primerna za moškega. Za naslednjič si moram prav gotovo zapomniti to barvno kombinacijo, ker očitno deluje. In če jo kombiniram z različnimi geometrijskimi oblikami, dobi kljukico :)

Thank you for coming over and have a great end of the week.

Hvala za obisk in želim vam super konec tedna.

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.

Monday Madness # 21

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

I'm prepping some card bases today so I have them at hand when I get 5 extra minutes to work on some cards. I like to do that. I usually put on a YouTube video to keep me company. I must say that for now I really like the Fabriano cardstock I bought for my card bases a few weeks ago :)

Danes sem si pripravila nekaj osnov za voščilnice, da jih imam na rezervi za takrat, ko jo potrebujem na hitro. Običajno prižgem kakšen posnetek na YouTubu in medtem naredim kaj koristnega. Za enkrat mi je zelo všeč Fabriano karton, ki sem ga kupila nekaj tednov nazaj :)

Have a great week!

Želim vam čudovit teden!

A Blog Named Hero Challenge - Sketch

Hello everyone!

Lepo pozdravljeni!

We have a fun sketch for the challenge today at A Blog Named Hero and it was designed by amazing Chari Moss. Thank you! :)

Danes imamo na izzivu A Blog Named Hero za vas pripravljeno skico, ki jo je oblikovala Chari Moss. Hvala, Chari! :)

I flipped the sketch 90° used hexagons instead of squares and embossing paste for the strips. I also coloured one with a Q-tip and ink over the stencil when my embossing paste was dry. I also added butterflies on top of my "squares" and some sequins for the bling.

Skico sem za svojo voščilnico zasukala za 90°, uporabila šest kotnike namesto kvadratov in embosirno pasto za narisane trakove. Eno vijugico sem preko stencil šablone pobarval s pomočjo palčke za ušesa in barvnih blazinic. Na svoje "kvadratke" sem dodala še metulje in prilepila nekaj bleščic.
