Craft box- review

Hi friends!

I can´t wait to show you my special scrapbooking "box". I bought it for a special price, but these pieces are absolutely stunning.

Look at it!

Where to start? :D Well, I just love these flowers. They are probably the most beautiful flowers I´ve ever bought. I usually don´t buy flowers, ´couse I make them, but time to time I buy some pieces.

And there were these flowers and butterflies to cut in the "box" too. So you can use them to embellish your project.

And now to the paper pads. There were 2 styles in 2 sizes:

Floral Memories

6x6 inch is perfect for cardmaking. There is a little magic in there.

12x12 inch - super cute designs. I just want to see my finished layout.

In My Garden

6x6 inch - absolutely lovely designs

12x12 inch - the same designs as 6x6 inch, but you have more space to create ;)

In 6x6 inch pads there are 20 designs in each pad, each design just once. Papers are one sided. So you get 20 papers.

In 12x12 inch paper pads are 20 designs, each just once, but the papers are double sided. So there is 10 sheets of paper.


Ok, so this is my little happy hour :)
Thank you for visiting.
Hope to show you my new project using these cuties soon :)

And here is the link to the shop: Craft box


See you soon!

Some news

Hi friends!

It´s a while since my last post here, I know. But the life brings changes every day :) And you have to fight!

So now, I´m here to say I´m going to posting again. Hope this time it will work a little bit better ;) And what can you find here? Inspirations, tutorials (yes, I´m going to bring them back again), reviews to craft supplies and so on.

So let´s begin with an inspiration today.

I would like to show you one beautiful "wedding card" - exploding box.

It´s very nice way how to congratulate to the wedding couple, original way to give money in pockets and it´s still a nice keepsake.

This one has 3 little pockets decorated with a paper laces and wedding wishes on the sides... 

...and a cake made of cardstock and handmade flowers in the middle of the box.

Names and date of wedding on a lid.

Mixed media Tag

Hi, all!

Today I would like to share my new tag with you. 

It´s made in mixed media technique. 

I have used white gesso, structure paste, stencil, 2 embossing powders, to make the background. Than I colored it with turquoise and vintage brown inks. Than I added 3 flowers and some other embellishments. Final touch with pearls and glitters.

Now I see there could be some stamps or writting too, but maybe next time ;)

Thank you for reading and for your comments.

Have a nice day!

Recipe book - vintage style

Hi friends!

The mothers day is comming soon and I would like to show you my original beautiful recipe book. 

It would be a very nice gift ;)

The main subject is the tea-pot and there are few cards fit to this style. 

Cards have destroyed and colored edges to make a vintage look. 

There is nice unusual chipboard R in the corner. 

On the inside of the cover there are 2 pockets. 

The cover is decorated and colored chipboard, corners are protected by metal corners. Inside the recipe book there is 100 one-sided sheets for recipes. Size A5 (it means 15cm x 21cm)

It´s available in my Etsy shop.

Thank you for stopping by :)

Have a nice day!

Diary vs Board

I can´t believe it´s 2 months since I wrote my last post in this blog.

I must better organize my time. And I realized that diary is perfect, but not for me. You know, I like my diary, I need to write down all duties and so, but I´m not the person who is all day in her diary. I need to see my duties all day, so I guess I have to make a new board. It will be upon my work table.

TO DO:

* house works
* creating
* post office (sending creations)
* blog post (writtting, creating,...)
* looking for some new stuffs (I always need something)
.
.
.

I´m sure I will be using my diary too, but I see the board is necessary :D

Hope to see you soon ;)

Bye!

Receptáre / Recipe books

Pozdravujem všetkých!

Prezerala som fotky na dnešný článok a nakoniec som v druhom foťáku našla fotky, ktoré som myslela, že som ani nestihla urobiť :D Tak Vám dnes ukážem receptár z minulého článku  a jeden nový, ktorý som teraz čerstvo dokončila.

Hi all!

Today I would like to show you my recipe books I made. The blue one is finished today.

Hope you like it :-)

Teším sa na Vás opäť nabudúce ;)

Prajem pekný deň.

Vianočné darčeky/ Christmas gifts

Určite to poznáte.... každý rok si poviem, že začnem s vianočnými pohľadnicami a darčekmi skôr, aby som ich včas stihla a môžem začať úplne hocikedy, aj tak ešte posledné dorábam úplne tesne pred sviatkami. A ak to má ešte aj cestovať, už sa proste nestíha poriadne fotiť. Lebo, povedzme si pravdu, odfotiť vec je niečo viac ako len cvaknúť ju na stole ako leží.... Ale keďže som nestíhala, z mnohých darčekov mám len fotky z procesu výroby alebo len narýchlo cvaknutý záber.

Hi all! I make christmas cards and gifts every year and I´m always late... Not too late, but I usually can´t take photos. So I´ve got just photos of process.

Jedným z takýchto mojich počinov je tento exploding box.

Here you can see some of my creations:

Ten vyzerá ešte celkom dobre, ale zo skicára som stihla odfotiť len prednú stranu :D (ešte bez zviazania)

A mám aj receptáre, aj keď neboli robené celkom na Vianoce, predsa som ich nestíhala fotiť... asi mám hlavu v oblakoch alebo čo :D

Recipes

Tento šedý je dokonca len nachystaný ešte pred prilepením ozdôb :D  Nakoniec som ešte pridala kde-tu z tých malých ružových perličiek. Receptáre nezdobím veľmi do priestoru, aby sa dobre používali...

A ešte som stihla takýto album, kde som ale zdobila len obal, vnútri sú biele strany.

Photo album (just cover inside and outside decorated)

S polotovarmi už síce veľmi nepracujem, ale myslím, že je aj tak album pekný :)
No nič, na dnes fotiek stačilo, ďalšie swapy Vám ukážem opäť nabudúce ;) A bude tam aj špecialny pocket letter, takže sa máte na čo tešiť ;)

That´s all for today. Next time I will show you some swaps I made with my friends :) And you can look forward to a special pocket letter swap too :P 

Majte sa krásne :)
