Malo drugače

Že nekoč sem malo raziskovala spletne strani, ki ponujajo elemente za digitalni scrapbooking, pa se mi je zadeva zdela nekoliko "sterilna" - sem namreč takšna oseba, da mi pri ustvarjanju in končnih izdelkih zelo veliko pomeni otip, gladkost ali hrapavost, mehkoba, relief, otip naravnih materialov, satena, različna tekstura papirja. Zato se mi sama računalniška izdelava voščilnice ali strani v družinski spominski knjigi ni zdela nekaj, česar bi se lotevala tudi jaz (pa še malo kičasto in osladno se mi je zdelo vse skupaj).

Ampak...

Pred dnevi sem naletela na podobno stran, ki me je takoj pritegnila z dizajnom svojih elementov (http://www.shabbyprincess.com). Ker imajo nekaj zbirk papirjev, črk, trakcev in okraskov zastonj, sem rekla, no, pa poskusimo - saj ne more biti tako težko.

Objavljam en rezultat tega poskusa; ker se držim svoje odločitve, da ne objavljam naših družinskih fotografij, sem naredila en primerek z modrimi cvetovi (vse sva fotografirala moj mož ali jaz).

Dobra stran takšnega ustvarjanja je, da lahko to počneš kjerkoli, da ni treba pred tem k fotografu po natisnjene fotografije, pri prejemniku ne zaseda prostora, če tega sam noče, in da ne ustvariš nobenega nereda. Ampak jaz ostajam pri škarjah in lepilu :)

A BIT DIFFERENT

Some time ago, I spent some time exploring websites that offered elements necessary for digital scrapbooking, but I found the stuff somehow "sterile" - namely, I'm the kind of person to give a great meaning to the sense of touch when it comes to creating and final products: smoothness or coarseness, softness, relief, the feeling of natural materials, satin, different textures of paper. Therefore, creating a card or a family memory page on the computer didn't seem to be something I would do (and it even seemed a bit kitchy).

But...

A few days ago, I came accross a page that attracted me instantly with the design of their elements (http://www.shabbyprincess.com). Since they have some free collections of papers, letters, ribbons and embellishments, I said, well, let's try - how hard can it be?

I'm posting one result of this experiment; it has been my personal decision that I don't post our family photos, so I made one example with blooms in blue (all photos taken by my husband or me).

The good part of such creating is that you can do it anywhere, you don't have to go to the photographer's studio to have some photos printed out, it doesn't take up any space if the person who gets if doesn't want it to, and you don't generate any mess whatsoever. But as far as I am concerned, I stick to scissors and glue :)
