Venice and Life

I`m home again... Venice is old and fragile, but in love with life. Many people, sometimes too many, hunting for that special something that makes Venice special.

I believe Venice is like life, you want to see and live everything in a single moment. But... from many things that both (life and Venice) have to give, you have to choose the ones that were designed specially for your soul.

I also have something new I`ve worked, but now it`s late and the light it`s not my favourite, tomorrow I go to country to my parents (no internet there)so my new work will become famous Monday.

Thank you for your visit and time,
Anca

La Serenissima

Venice, this is our destination. Departure: tomorrow!
So I`ll use only a few words.
I`ve chosen two quilling cards for this post.

Quilling, and stamps, and music.
I feel them very close to me and to my style.

Maybe a gondola would have been more appropriate.
I`ll try to make one when I get back.

Spreading the music of my soul,
listening the music of your souls,
Anca

Time for goodies

It`s june, yeei, we can eat as many cheries we want (and can)!
I used fruits as inspiration... some cherries, some strawberries.

I love the summer, I love the sun and the good weather... I love to climb cherry trees and eat all those little red, beautiful and deliciuos fruits.

May you have the most beautiful days of summer,
Anca

Options

All around people are in a hurry, having all kind of tasks and deadlines. I feel the same. This month I had a lot of things to do but even so I tried to make some cards. I miss them so much!

With every new day I discover what a challenge is to establish the way I spend my time. I asked myself why are we all so busy? I believe we all are busier because we all have dreams to fulfill, and they become more and more accessible to accomplish.

Selling cards was a dream an year ago, now I have to choose if I go on or not. Sooo... busy or not, the choice is in our hands.

I'm curious what are your dreams about... and

I'm glad you stopped by,

New inspiration

My dear ones,even if I haven't posted for so long I want you to know that I visit your blogs from time to time, and I admire your new creations. And... I`m here, like always waiting for your oppinions and comments.These weeks I attented a special workshop and new inspiration came to me.

The course was about mandala, which means a circle that has to be filled with something (usually all kind of drawings, shapes and colors). So... quilling is about circles and colors and shapes and I thought why not? This is my first quilling mandala which I named ~beauty, color and life~.

If you are looking on the internet after some children mandala you'll find all kind of shapes and patterns inside a circle, waiting to be colored;  those fit perfect with quilling. Also, there things more profound beyond the beauty of Mandala, that just wait to be discovered.
Hope you like my new creation,
thank you for your visit,

Flower details

Hello my dear friends! I`m home again!
Because I was gone I haven`t made quilling. So I`ll show you some flowers I made weeks ago, as details on my Easter cards.

Here is my favourite one, blue and green, and my classy acrylic stamps.

This one is made from different blue coils that gathered in my box as they didn`t match in other place.

This flower is restored from an old card.

Here I tried to make a flower I saw on other quilling blogs, it turned out different, but yet beautiful.

I love the way they look with this full center type.

I usually read on other blogs about people who take a pause from blogging. Now I feel strange to anounce the same thing: that I`ll have a break from making cards and other quilling works, also from posting. There are some projects I`m working on and I need all my time for them.

Somewhere, deep inside, I hope this is not true, and that I`ll steal some time I`ll use for quilling... Only time will show the truth.
Warm hugs,
Anca

Happiness

Here I am again. But now, that place called ”here” is not my home... Well... That place is now another country, Germany, and another town, a huge one: BERLIN.
Some of you maybe already know how much I enjoy life and traveling. Now, I am very, very happy, I feel my body too small for such a great happiness.

Even if I prepared a lot of cards for Easter I didn`t post them because I had to finish so many things last week.
For this post I`ve chosen some bunnies. I think I made around 10 different cards with these beautiful, paper rabbits.

I choose this card for Scrapper in Romania challenge, it fits perfectly. The girls told us the Easter Bunny story... and I loved it!!! This is the challenge.

You can see the flower-like button and the string. I like the way they go together. I also love this combination of the wood, paper and natural string beige with light blue. I consider it so soft and refined.

I like to imagine my happiness spreads like a scent all around and brings more light and joy to this world.

Thank you for your time and visit,
