Božić za pamćenje

Posljednja za ovaj Božić... Pinku drugačija od prethodnih, ali ipak nekako u istim tonovima. ... Sličnim, barem? Ova mala vila u meni uvijek budi strah. Strah od tanašnih udova i strah od razlijevanja crvene tinte mac van linija. Ovo su bile zadnje božićne zvijezde na zalihi - nisam vjerovala da ću uspjeti ijednu božićnu čestitku ove godine napraviti bez kupovanja novih ukrasa. Ali, eto, iznenadila sam samu sebe. :)
Božić se bliži, nema vremena za razglabanja i filozofiranja - treba očistiti kuću, ispeći kolače, zamotati poklone i zato... Pozdrav do iduće godine!

Sretan vam svima Božić i Nova 2018. godina!

Hark! The Herald Angels sing

Here we go again... 😁 'Mama.' 'Reci, ljubavi?' 'Šta si ovo napravila? Ove tri čestitke su ti iste. A rekla si da ti radiš samo unikate.' - moja kći, naravno. Ali ona ne zna da je sve to s razlogom. Sve zato da pašu uz poklone. Crveno-crne poklone s crvenim i crnim ukrasima. Namjerno. Za tri posebne osobe. Kartoline su jednake, jer su mi jednako važne u životu i izuzetno cijenim njihovo prijateljstvo. Ali su i različite, jer su i one totalno različite osobe. Svaka od njih stvarno je posebna, a tako sam im birala i poklone. Duboka, bogata, topla crvena na tamnoj noćnoj pozadini. Znate na koji film me podsjeća? 'Ljubav zapravo'. Odličan, zabavan film.... Mogla bi ga pogledati opet. 😉
Enough said - predstavljam vam Brynn kao posljednju iz tria!

Deck The Halls

Nakon Flynna, koji je otvorio sezonu. stiže na red i slatka Wynn! Da... dio je nečeg. Oboje su, točnije. Iako se to mojoj kćeri baš i nije svidjelo (o tome više u idućem postu), meni jest - ova kombinacija, ova ideja. Uskoro ćete vidjeti zašto. 😉
Ovog sam Božića htjela nešto novo. Koliko god da volim sve one stare ilustracijesve me vuklo ka nekoj promjeni.  koje sam već toliko puta obojila (i ponovno bih), sve me vuklo ka nekoj promjeni. Na kraju krajeva, Djedice, bila sam jako dobra curica i gotovo ništa nisam čitave ove godine potrošila na kupnju novog materijala. Ne znam, jesam li išta uopće! Koristila sam razne ostatke, sve iz 'arhive', kombinirala, divila se sama sebi kada bi uspjela... Mislim da sam zaslužila nekoliko novih ilustracija. 😀
Anyways - nemam samu kartolinu što danas puno objašnjavati, a danima se nisam naspavala kako treba, pa vas sad svih pozdravljam do idućeg posta!

Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful

Volim ove stare božićne tradicionalne pjesme i taj jezik... Gotovo koliko i kombinaciju hladne crne sa vrućom crvenom. Ne znam otkud taj moja nagla opsjednutost crvenom bojom, ali ne nestaje. I ne smeta mi. 😊 Crveni ruž, crvena olovka za oči, crveni novi kaput, crveni šal i kapa, crveni nokti, crvena majica, crvena udobna dekica... Osjećam se tako lijepo okružena crvenom, obučena u crveno. Predivna topla boja koja me grije...
Možda će neki reći da je crna prejaki kontrast ovdje, ali meni baš tako paše, jer odražava sve što se vrti trenutno u meni - neke teške misli zbog kojih pretjerano filozofiram danima i puna kanta ljubavi koju još mogu dati.
Inače i nije moj stil pri kraju bojanja dubinu pojačavati crnom, ali osjećala sam potrebu pa sam probala po uzoru na neke velike koloristice u ovom svijetu od kojih moram izdvojiti Francescu (Franz). I sviđa mi se kako je ispalo! Ali i dalje volim i mekše tonove kojima sam dosad bila vjerna, a vidim da im se i ona nekako u zadnje vrijeme okreće. 😉 Eksperimentirati i gurati sebe izvan udobne zone je fora i neopterećujuće... Preporučam i otvaram kratku božićnu seriju na ovom blogu!

Emmin san

Bome, ovako nekako ja svaki dan... Vrućina me ubija... Ne diže me više ni guarana ni kava ni čaj. Samo preživljavam dan u krepalina modeu i čekam večer, hladniji zrak, šetnju gradom, sjedenje na terasi. Jedva čekam da isplovimo na naše tajno mjesto za odmor, preživim ljeto i napunim baterije. 
Zadovoljna sam kako je ovo ispalo, jer, naravno bilo je poteškoća sa bojanjem. Nešto se čudno počelo događati s Copicsima i rekla sam sebi da je vrag odnio šalu, pa ih više ne držim u okomitom, nego u vodoravnom položaju, kao i ostali, normalni svijet, pa će se tinta sad valjda pravilno rasporediti. Nadajmo se...
Tek kad sam pripremila isprintanu ilustraciju, shvatila sam zašto u posljednje vrijeme ne radim horizontalne čestitke - nemam baš više neki izbor velikih papira (12x12), ali svejedno sam išla kopati po ostacima i čak  ću priznati da kombinacija ružičasta-zelena, koja mi baš nikad nije bila nešto, tu i ne izgleda tako loše, je l' da? Bože, što ja volim točkice... 😁
Do idućeg puta - 😎.

Zaljuljaj me...

Eh, da barem ja imam jedno stablo... Veliko stablo da na njega postavim ljuljačku za klince. ... I sebe. 😋
Ljeti mi je pojam terapija bojanjem na balkonu uz ADFD ilustracije. A ovu još nikad nisam imala prilike oživjeti, pa sam baš bila sretna da ju je netko odabrao i to još za tako lijepi događaj kao što je rođenje bebe. 😊  Volim ja kupanje i barku i preplanulu boju, ali me toplina inače pretvara u žvaku, pa sam bezvoljna i bezvezna... Zato mi je zakon ovakav dan u kojem vjetar lagano puše, sunce se skriva iza oblaka, a ja sretna sjedim na balkonu uz kavu, knjigu ili boje. Mir. Moj svijet. Neprocjenjivo.
Da želim da je haljina žuta, znala sam odmah, a onda i breskvasta krila. Ali kosa... Ah, vilinska kosa i moja ljubav prema pastelnim bojama. Najdraža mi je, naravno, ljubičasta, ali to mi nije nikako išlo uz ostalo, pa sam dobrih 20 min gubila vrijeme kombinirajući druge nijanse. 😒 Onda završim cijelu čestitku, sve je na mjestu, ja sretna odem od stola... Pa se vraćam nakon pola sata - Hm. Tu nešto fali. Ajme, meni, šta ću sad? Šta fali? Fali li nešto? Zanovijetam muža: 'Ljubavi? Fali tu nešto?' 'Ne.' 'Tu dolje?' 'Mislim da ne. Ok je.' 'Hm...' Nakon par minuta: 'Odlučila si da nećeš ništa dodat?' 'Ne, dodala sam.' '? Gdje?' 'Ovu malu šljokicu tu uz ovu bijelu!' 😅

U svom svijetu

Nedavno sam na Instagramu uz neki profil pročitala: When someone told me that I live in a fantasyland, I nearly fell off my unicorn. To me tako nasmijalo i podsjetilo na mene. Apsolutno me nije briga što ljudi misle da sam pukla, jer volim bajke, mitska bića i legende i ne namjeravam prestati. Nisam nerazumna osoba, ali volim ostaviti mjesta ideji da negdje, možda, postoji svijet, mimo svih znanstvenih dokaza, skriven, ali neodoljivo blizu nama. Svijet pun boja i čudesa, gdje svi posjeduju vlastitog zmaja, jednoroga ili neko drugo zgodno biće. I smatram se sretnom, što dio mene nije i nikad neće odrasti u potpunosti. 😉
Sviđaju mi se boje koje sam odabrala za njenu haljinu - prvi sam ih put koristila: BG70 - Ocean Mist, BG72 Ice Ocean i BG75 Abyss Green. I ja bi jednu u takvoj boji... Papiri su se tako dobro uklopili u priču, te se čini kao da je sve zajedno dio neke dječje knjige. A to se može samo sa ADFD pečatima... Definitivno su mi najdraži.
Pečat koji sam izvukla, ono, iz prašine, nekoliko sam puta isprobala na starom papiru i sve je bilo ok, kad sam krenula otisnuti ga na već praktički gotovu kartolinu... off course...  Jasno je meni da je grunge stil, ali ne baš tako da su slova duhovi na pola... Ok, spasila sam stvar dobrim markerom za cd-e, vjerovali ili ne i ispalo je savršeno - greška se ni ne vidi. 😁
Sad je točno vrijeme da se dignem i djeci pročitam neku priču (trenutno smo na Pričama za djecu Oscara Wildea!).

Dobro jutro, malena!

I to koje predivno, proljetno jutro je danas bilo! Ma cijeli dan je bio divan, kao i vikend iza mene - neka taj zen potraje. :)
Iako se čini kao da se ovaj blog pretvara u Uspavanu ljepoticu, ne dam ga još. :) Vikend je bio insppirativan, vratila mi se volja za stvaranjem, iako sve više i rađe vrijeme provodim vani. Ali i to se da spojiti - bojanje na terasi - otvorimo sezonu! Woo-hoo! Ok, sad stvarno pretjerujem s uskličnicima, ali zbilja sam imala fenomenalan dan. :)
Sugar Nellie i nije baš često na mom repertoaru, iako su pečati vrlo slatki. Baby boje su se uz ovu vilu preslatkog lica tako lijepo uklopile, kao i enamel točkice. Volim pastelno i volim boje, pogotovo u proljeće. Ne mogu vjerovat da sam ponovno imala priliku negdje nakeljiti ove hortenzije, koje sam valjda kupila pred mali milijun godina. Također ne mogu vjerovati da mi je ostala još možda jedna i da mi je zbog toga žao. :) :) :)
Iza ilustracije skriven je mali džepić od paus papira, koji se može izvući. Neat, ha? To isto dugo nisam radila, a da nema pravog razloga zašto...
Nadam se da ćete i vi uživati na suncu ovog proljeća što više i puniti se energijom. Pozdrav!

Dok svi spavaju...

Recimo da su pripreme za Božić pri kraju, iako slutim da je to daleko od istine, pa da objavimo i zadnju kartolinu za ovu 2016. godinu. Jaki kontrast, nasmijano lice, vesela zvonca, božićne boje i sjaj. To je to za kraj, ne? Dugo nisam die-cuttala na način da dio ilustracije izlazi van okvira, pa mi je trebalo dok se nisam podsjetila, ali mislim da je vrijedilo.
Ovaj je malac baš veseo i ja sam bila skupa s njim, jer se niti jednom crvena boja nije prolila - woo-hoo! :) Ali bojala sam se da bi crna pozadina mogla biti too much za božićnu čestitku. Non the less, iskoristila sam ga jer mi se činilo da izgleda cool. Podsjeća me na kredom ispisane ploče ispred kafića koji te pozivaju da uđeš na toplo piće i skloniš se sa hladnih ulica u toplo, ukrašeno veselim blagdanskim ukrasima. Znate na što mislim?
Bilo kako bilo, eto moje posljednje za ovu godinu. Želim Vam sev najbolje za Božić i nadolazeću Novu Godinu. Vidimo se 2017.! :)

Božićna zvjezdica

Pa neka bude i jedna ružičasta! Pa šta? Glavno da se šljašti. Da, jesam, riječ sam pokupila iz crtića Wreck-It Ralph i odonda mi ne ide iz glave. :)
Zadovoljna sam kako je ispala ova kartolina, iako nisu tradicionalne božićne boje na njoj, a najviše od svega mi se sviđa kako je ispala haljina. I to što sam iskoristila ovu čudnovatu pahulju, koju sam, vjerovali ili ne, davno slučajno pronašla. Najveći mi je bad bio kad sam ostala bez mini perlica kojima sam zamjenjivala dosadne žute tučke ovim božićnim zvijezdama. Ali - kako se sve ionako već šljaštilo, dobila sam ideju da upotrijebim kristaliće, koji ionako besposleno čuče u mojoj kutijici s tričarijama. I eto vam moje predzadnje božićne čestitke: lagane, vedre, smrznute, šljašteće i zveckajuće (praporac)! :)

Veseli mali Božić

I posljednja u nizu Sugar Nellie groznice. Uvijek se iznenadim kad uspijem iskoristiti neki papir koji je već bio na putu do smeća, jer me beskrajno nervirao svojom bezveznošću i neuklapanjem nigdje. Divno sročeno, znam, ali podnesite me, jer mi sad već kronično nedostaje sna.
Božić mi se prišuljava, a ja sam ponovno neorganizirana, utopijski raspoložena uz prevelike 'to do' liste koje me deprimiraju. Znam ja posložiti prioritete, ali su one stvari koje nisu hitne uvijek nekako zabavnije. I lakše za obaviti. Eto, recimo, lakše je sada tipkati nego peglati. Mrzim peglanje. A u tim listama tako se lako izgubiti i ne računati na sve. Jutros kada su mi spomenuli zornice, totalno sam se izbezumila! Zar već? I opet nisam išla? ...
A vi? Jeste li vi spremni za Božić?

Vrijeme radosti

Iskoristiti nešto reciklirano nekada je bio moj osobni pečat na kartolinama. A onda sam se pogospodila i zanemarila taj touch, koristila samo kupljene tričarije. Obično vrlo, vrlo skupe tričarije... E, sada sam odlučila povratiti taj običaj barem s vremena na vrijeme. Na prethodnoj sam iskoristila svoju staru naušnicu, a ovaj ukras skinut je sa stare svečane torbice koja se raspala. Živjelo recikliranje! 
Ful sam se brinula kako ću ove godine obojati odjeću ovoj slatkoj vili, a da bude zgodna i originalna. Eto... Ispalo je ovako i rekla bih da nije loše. Hit su mi boje na tajicama, a sa crvenom sam, pogađate, bila vrlo oprezna. Toliko oprezna da nisam disala dok sam ih koristila i stalno čekala gdje će i koja nijansa prokrvariti. Ali nije! Niti jednom! :) Hura!

Najljepše doba u godini

Da. S ovom je čestitkom sve počelo. Tragedija u crvenom. Stvarno ne znam šta je s tim crvenim markerima, ali istih sam problema imala i sa Spectrum Noir i sa Copicsima. Crveni markeri pate od inkontinencije. Samo crveni. I iznenade te kad se najmanje nadaš. Želiš. Trebaš. Dakle, sve je već bilo obojano, samo je suknjica ostala za kraj - zadnji potez uz sam rub kod krila, a onda se mrlja slonovskih razmjera raširi po krilima i svud. Aaarrrrgh!! Slijedi hvatanje za glavu, čupanje kose, tiho psovanje i protestiranje bez smisla. I onda pada odluka: E, ne printam nanovo, ne režem die cutom ponovno, prikrivam i basta!
Uklanjam mrlju najbolje što znam blenderom i na kraju obilno posipam prahom za frantage. A, eto. Zamelo ju malo.
Svejedno, nije uvijek svako zlo za zlo, pogotovo ako se izvuče naravoučenje iz njega: Nikada ne ostavljaj bojanje crvenom za kraj i ne izrezuj die cutom prerano. ;)

Sanjajući snijeg

Dakle, mislila sam da bi jedan Božić možda mogao proći bez Halle, ali to je bilo vrlo budalasto od mene. Iako sam ove godine više za tople i tradicionalne boje Božića, htjela sam obojati i jednu "ledenu" kartolinu, pa... eto je. :) A kad se već danas smrzavam nekako cijeli dan, logično je bilo objaviti baš nju sljedeću u nizu.
Našla sam se, doduše, u problemu kada sam ju krenula sastavljati, jer sam ostala bez ledeno-zimsko-frozen-hladnih papira, pa sam improvizirala s onime što imam. Rekla bih da je ispalo baš ok. Jedino se Halla malo previše kvarcala, te sam nakon ove čestitke na ostalima kožu bojala za nijansu svjetlije (vidjet ćete uskoro). Ipak je zima, a ne ljeto. Nadam se da to ipak nije ubilo čaroliju zime koju sam pokušala dočarati. :)
Jako volim svoje Stickles, ali za njene grijače i pompone koristila sam glitter u prahu, čija se količina drastično smanjuje. A i Sticklesi su već pri kraju, a ja nisam cura koja može živjeti bez svojih svjetlucavih stvarčica. Uskoro ću morati u nabavku. ;)
