Angel card 2 / Felicitare cu inger 2

Salutare din nou!
Iata acelasi fel de ingerasi pe carton mov si alb :)
Cred ca mov e o culoare neobisnuita pentru Craciun dar ador culoarea asta asa ca nu m-am putut abtine!

Hi there!
Here are the same golden angels on purple and white :)
I consider purple an unusual color for Christmas but I love purple so I couldn`t help myself!

Angel card / Felicitare cu inger

Buna dragi prieteni! V-am spus ca o sa postez mai des zilele acestea pentru ca am facut cateva felicitari de Craciun.

Am folosit hartie natur si niste ingerasi quilling aurii. Sunt tare dragalasi! O sa revin cu alte culori :)

Hello again! I told you I`ll post more often these days since I made a few Christmas cards.

Golden quilled angels and natur paper! I just love this combo! I`ll come back with other colors :)

Hugs,

Imbratisari,

Winter card / Felicitare de iarna

Dragii mei,
in ultima vreme am neglijat blogul. Asta nu pentru ca nu am facut quilling, dimpotriva am facut sute de flori si multe alte minunatii, insa au fost mai mult creatii de serie.
O sa incep acum o serie de postari cu felicitari de Craciun. Cu timpul, pentru ca procesul sa fie mai rapid, am inceput sa repet un tipar, insa ma incapatanez sa nu fac doua felicitari la fel.
Pentru azi, iata niste fulgusori albastri pe un fundal alb, cu emboss care imita lemnul. Sunt tare delicati si frumusei, poate, poate vor aduce si zapada!

My dear friends,
Lately I neglected my blog. That`s not because I abbandoned quilling, on the contrary I made a lot of flowers and all kind of wonderful things, but they are creations of series. 
Today I`ll start posting some Christmas cards. Even I repeat the general design, I do my best and I try to put something different on each one. 
For today, a blue snowflake on white embossed background that looks like wood. They look so delicate!

I wish you wonderful days this time around Christmas,
Sa aveti parte de zile minunate acum, in preajma Craciunului,
Anca

Everyday is a Journey

Fara quilling azi :) Sunt niste felicitari care asteapta sa le public asa ca nu le mai pot tine ascunse. Acest mesaj ma face sa ma simt atat de bine de fiecare data cand il citesc. Si imi place din ce in ce mai mult sa ma joc cu aceste bucati printate. Imi place sa combin mesaje tiparite impreuna cu alte elemente astfel incat la final felicitarea sa aiba un aspect hand-made.

Pentru acestea am folosit tus distress, sfoara, stampile, nasturi si margele. Ca intotdeauna, imi ador creatiile! Si incerc sa imi imaginez cum se simt oamenii cand primesc felicitari ca acestea.



No quilling for today :) I have some cards that are waiting to appear here so I can`t let them wait anymore. This message makes me feel so good everytime I read it. And I enjoy more and more playing with these printed pieces of paper. I like to use printed messages together with other elements so that the final card will a have a clear hand-made touch.

For these ones I used distress ink, hemp, stamps, buttons, beads and brads. Like always, I love them all! And I imagine the way people feel when receive cards like these ones.

Love, love, love

Va spun inca de la inceput ca nu sunt fan Ziua Indragostitilor! Mie imi place dragostea si punct. Dragostea pura. Si consider aceasta sarbatoarea (sau traditionalul nostru Dragobete)o ocazie minunata de a-ti impartasi sentimentele pentru persoana iubita. Intotdeauna cand gasesc scrisori vechi de la iubitul meu (actual sot) ma simt tanara, ca o adolescenta, fericita si indragostita! E asa de fain s agasesti felicitari vechi si mesaje de dragoste prin cutia cu amintiri. Asa ca incurajez pe toata lumea sa daruiasca de ocazille speciale persoanei iubite o felicitare cu multe cuvinte de dragoste si pretuire. Ca si vinul bun, felicitarea va deveni si mai pretioasa cu trecerea timpului.

I want to make it clear from the very begining! I`m not a big fan of Valentine`s Day. I just love love. Pure love. And I consider this occasion (or our local holiday from February 24 Dragobete) a great occasion to share your feelings. Everytime I find old letters from my boyfriend (now my husband) I feel so young and happy and in love! So I encourage everyone to give on special ocasions to the dear ones, a card with many beautyful deep words. Like wine, the card will become more precious with time.

Imbratisari,
Hugs,
Anca

1st anniversary card / Felicitare pentru o prima aniversare

Acum ca este pentru copii neaparat sau pentru alte aniversari secrete, nu va pot spune cu exactitate. Dar se refera clar la un an de ceva aceste felicitari cu cifra 1. Poate fi si pentru numarul unu al inimii mele, sau pentru cel mai bun la ceva, sau, sau, sau...
De acum pana la ziua indragostitilor gasesc cu greu teme pentru felicitari, florile mi se par cumva un vis in perioada aceasta.

Now if this is only for children or for other secret anniversaries, I can't tell you exactly. But these cards with number one, refer clearly to a year of something. Can also be for the number one of my heart, or the best at something, or, or, or ... From now until Valentine's Day I hardly find good themes for my cards, flowers seem so far away during this time.

Iata asadar o felicitare mai feminina.
So here it is a more feminine card.

Iar aici una mai baietoasa.
And here a boyish one.

Si stiu ce este pentru mine acest numar unu. Prima zi de munca, un nou inceput. O prima zi de munca plina de flori, de culoare si de baloane. Asa vreau sa fie toate zilele mele de lucru :).
Va doresc si voua ca in acest an zilele de munca sa fie colorate, si vesele, si infloritoare.

Now I know what these cards mean for me. The number one is for the first day of work, for a new beginning. A 2013 first day of work full of flowers, and colors, and ballons. This is how I want to be all my working days :).
And I wish, this year, all your working days be colourful, cheerful and flourishing.

Felicitare cu fulgi quilling / Quilling snowflakes card

Stiu, uneori ce-i prea mult e prea mult. Dar am promis 10 zile cu fulgi si vreau sa ma tin de cuvant. Felicitarile acestea doua fac parte dintre preferatele mele de anul acesta - imi plac culorile, imi place forma si designul si mai imi place si hartia albastra cu aspect perlat. Stiu ca e zapada peste tot acum, dar nu ma simt vinovata, toti facem fulgi in perioada aceasta, nu? Adica nu cred ca fulgii mei au adus ninsoarea.

I know, too much is too much! But I promised 10 days of projects that include snowflakes so I want to keep my word. These cards are from my favorite - I love the colors, the shape, the design and also the pearlescent blue paper. Our country is covered with snow but I do not feel gulty, we all make snowflakes around Christmas!

Felicitari All White / All White Cards

A very special day today! St. Nicholas brought in my shoes me a Sabon cream with lavender and roses. And other beautiful gifts. Also a snowy day.
So here are these cards I made some weeks ago. My mother in law helped - she did the snowflakes. A good teacher (me :D) and a good student (she).
I`m curious to see if people will love these cards (and buy them) beacuse I love so very much this delicate design, also the combination white on (almost) white. The paper is more likely silver than white, it looks like silk.

O zi speciala azi! Mos Nicolae mi-a adus o crema Sabon cu lavanda si trandafiri. Alte daruri minunate. Si o zi cu ninsoare. Asa ca iata niste felicitari pe care le-am facut acum cateva saptamani, in acelasi sentiment al albului. Soacra mea m-a ajutat - ea a facut fulgii. Un profesor bun (eu) combinat cu un elev bun (ea).
Sunt curioasa daca oamenilor le vor placea aceste felicitari si daca le vor cumpara. Mie imi plac foarte, foarte mult - imi place designul si imi place combinatia alb pe alb (aproape alb pentru ca hartia are nuante argintii, arata ca matasea).

Hope St. Nicholas brought you sweets and fruits,
Sper ca Mos Nicolae va adus dulciuri si fructe,
Anca

Felicitari de iarna handmade / Handmade winter cards

Buun. Pana acum am avut 5 zile cu fulgi liberi. Acum urmeaza 5 zile cu felicitari cu fulgi. O sa incep cu preferatele mele, tot fulgi albastri, designul meu - adica i-am creat din minte, nu am urmat o poza de pe net sau asa ceva. Asta nu inseamna ca altcineva, intr-un alt colt de lume nu ar fi putut crea ceva asemanator, sau chiar identic.
Sunt frumoase si delicate si mai ales imi place forma aceasta dreptunghiulara care se deschide pe orizontala.
Si imi mai place foarte tare fulgul mai mare care e cumva fragil ca si firisoarele de gheata.

Sooo... 5 days with free quilled snowflakes. From now on 5 cards with quilled snowflakes. I`ll begin with my favorite ones, blue snowflakes, again, my design - meaning that I`ve made them by myself, without looking on the internet for these 2 designs. I know it is possible that someone else from this huge world had the same idea.
The cards are beautiful and delicate and I love this rectangular, horizontal shape.
I also love very much the bigger snowflake that looks somehow like fragile ice.

Va multumesc pentru comentariile minunate, pentru vizita si pentru ca faceti si voi lucrusoare MINUNATE cu propriile maini!

Thank you so much for your wonderful comments, for your visit and for the fact that YOU create WONDERFUL things with your hands!

Chandelier card / Felicitare cu candelabru

Imi plac la nebunie mastile acestea mici din quilling. Le-am facut din joaca intr-o zi si sunt tare mandra de rezultat. A fost ideea mea - adica vreau sa spun ca nu m-am inspirat :D

Si printul cu candelabru imi place asa de mult! Si imi place si combinatia de culori.

Asa. Se pare ca sunt intr-o faza de marketing de imi tot promovez si laud lucrarile, dar chiar imi e foarte drag de ele.

I just love so very much these little masks I did using quilling. They came up just like that (I was playing around with those shapes) and I`m so proud how they turned out. They were my idea - I mean that I had no inspiration source :D

I also adore the chandelier print! An also love the color combo.

It seems that I`m in a marketing era from my life since I compliment so much my works, but I really love them and I have such a warm feeling for them.

Hugs and smiles,
Anca

Recycle

Buna tuturor! Postarea de azi este despre reciclare. Intotdeauna am crezut ca este suficient pentru toata lumea pe acest Pamant si ca sunt multe lucruri care se arunca in timp ce altii sufera din lipsa lor. Am cumparat un palton vechi de la un second cu 3 lei si am facut felicitari. Sunt asa de frumoase!

Hello everyone! Today`s post is about recycling. I always thought there is enough for everyone on this Planet and there is a huge amount of wasted things while others suffer of not having those things. I bought an old coat from a second hand with 3 ron (1$) and I made some cards. They are so beautyful!

Am taiat multe inimi din paltonul de care va spuneam, le-am cusut si am pus un nasture. Am folosit stampilele (pe care le ador!) si iata-le gata pentru Valentine.

I made many hearts from this coat, I sew them and put a button. I used my stamps (love them sooo much!) and they are ready for Valentine.

Si nasturii sunt de la camasi second pe care le-am gasit in cutii cu 1 leu bucata. Cand eram mica mergeam la o croitorie si ceream resturi de materiale. Acum as vrea sa incerc asta la un magazin cu tapet.

The buttons are also from old shirts that I found in boxes with 1 ron every piece. When I was a little girl I used to go to a tailor`s place and asked for pieces of tissue. Now I want to try my luck with a wallpaper store.

Reciclare e un cuvant greu si poate prea comun. Dincolo de placerea de a gasi lucruri de folos intre cele inutile, povestea aceasta este despre a nu risipi, despre respect si grija, despre abundenta si suficienta care ar trebui sa distruga iluzia ca "nu este destul".

Recycle is a big word and maybe too common. Beyond the pleasure of finding useful things between the useless ones, this story is about non-wasting, about respect and care, about abundance and sufficiency that should destroy the illusion "there is not enough".

Va invit sa vedeti acest film scurt. Sunt foarte curioasa ce parere aveti.
I invite you all to watch this short movie. Please let me know your opinions.

Happy Birthday

V-am spus ca am multe surprize in seria ce am creat-o pentru iarna. Mi-ar place sa primesc de ziua mea asa multe cadouri si un urs de plus urias. Particip cu aceasta felicitare la Charisma Card Challenges. Cred ca numai eu am facut o felicitare cu quilling. Daca stiti bloguri cu provocari quilling va rog as-mi spuneti si mie. Am gasit unul si ma pregatesc pentru el, dar despre asta in alta zi.

As I said, I have surprizes for you from the winter collection. I wish I really get so many presents on my birthday and a huge bear. I participate with this card at Charisma Card Challenges. As I saw, my card is the only one with quilling. If you know blogs with quilling challenges, please let me know too. I found one and I am working for it`s challenge, but about this some other day.

Tema este Happy Birthday.
The theme is Happy Birthday.

La Multi Ani, Charisma!!!
Happy Birthday, Charisma!!!

I also submmit this card to :
- one stop craft challenge where the theme is a card for a child
- gingerloftchallenge where the theme is celebrations
