Še ena

Malo v stilu monogramov - poskušala sem narediti nekaj preprostega, univerzalnega, brez napisa, pa vseeno malo elegantnega in svečanega.

ONE MORE

In a monogram style - I tried to do something simple, of no explicit purpose, with no sayings, and yet still a little bit elegant and festive.

Gremo naprej

Kupček rdeče zelenih prazničnih voščilnic je gotov, papir sem porabila, kot sem si obljubila, nekaj jih bom še objavila, zdaj pa naprej - nekaj modrega, belega, srebrnega, nekaj snežakov in nekaj snežink.

MOVING ON

The pile of red and green holiday cards is done, I've used all the paper as I promised to myself, I'll post a few more cards, but now I'm moving on - to something blue, white, silver, to some snowmen and some snowflakes.

Ko bom velik

... bom hranilnik. :)
V resnici pa je kovanec zraven za lažjo predstavo o velikosti.
(Ja, FIMO je tudi moja obsesija - še nekaj stvari bo v naslednjih objavah.)

WHEN I GROW UP

... I'll be a piggy-bank. :)
Actually, the coin is there to give a better idea of piggy's size.
(Yes, FIMO is my obsession too - there will be some more in the next few posts.)

Zakaj ni nič novega?

Pridejo dnevi, ko morajo tudi najbolj predani izdelovalci voščilnic delati za položnice in ne samo za dušo. :)
Saj bo bolje. Do takrat pa tile medvedki - eni se jih še mogoče spomnite... (kdor še ima katerega od njih, naj mi pošlje kakšen mini mail).

WHY ISN'T THERE ANYTHING NEW?

There are days when even the most dedicated card makers have to work to pay the bills and not just to satisfy their creativity itch. :)
Things WILL get better. Until then, these little bears - some of you might even remember them... (send me a tiny note if you still have one of them).

Rdeča, zelena, zlata

Ne morem stran od tega papirja. Očitno ne bom delala drugih decemberskih voščilnic, dokler ne uporabim čisto vseh slikic. Neki snežaki pa že stojijo v vrsti in čakajo na modro, belo in srebrno... (Potrpljenje, fantje, potrpljenje!)

RED, GREEN, GOLDEN

I just cannot get away from this paper. Obviously I won't be making any other December cards until I've used the very last of these little pictures. And some snowmen are already standing in the line and waiting for blue, white and silver color... (Patience, guys, patience!)

Spet ena preprosta

Samo trakec rdečega papirja in dve nalepki, pa nastane takšna precej nevtralna voščilnica za različne priložnosti. Hitro, enostavno in učinkovito.

ANOTHER SIMPLE ONE

Just a strip of red paper and two stickers, and there you have it, a quite neutral card for various occasions. Quick, simple and effective.

Kar cel komplet

Včeraj sem kar ostala v mojem kotičku - malo sem spremenila vogalčke, potem pa je nastal kar komplet desetih. Običajno se bolj posvečam ustvarjanju vsakič nove voščilnice, ampak včasih pa kar prija, če si lahko pripravim papirje in trakce in okraske, potem pa jih preprosto sestavim po vzorcu, ne da bi vsakič morala presojati, ali gredo barve in motiv skupaj, ali bo trakec spodaj ali zgoraj, kaj bo pisalo... In medtem v mislih že kombiniram novo voščilnico.

A WHOLE SET

Yesterday I spent quite some more time working on the cards - I changed the corners a little bit, and then I ended up with a set of ten. I usually dedicate most of my time and effort to creating unique cards, but sometimes it feels good to be able to prepare paper and ribbons and embellishments, and simply assemble them without having to judge whether the colors will match the motif, where the ribbon should be, what kind of saying will be appropriate... And in the meantime, I'm creating a new card in my mind.

Je bil že čas...

...da tudi jaz začnem z letošnjimi voščilnicami za december! Ker bosta ta dva meseca tako hitro naokoli. In za letos imam neko prav posebno veselje... Bom še objavljala, kar bo nastajalo.
Zdaj grem pa naredit še eno za pojutrišnjem.

IT WAS ABOUT TIME...

...that I started making this year's cards for the December holidays! Because these two months will fly by so fast. And I can feel I'll be creating with some particular delight this year ... I promise I'll post every new card I make.
And now I'm off to make one for the day after tomorrow.

Za moje bivše sodelavce

Te medvedke iz FIMO mase sem naredila za poslovilna darila mojim sodelavcem, s katerimi sem delala več kot deset let. Danes pa je ravno pravi dan, da jih malo pozdravim in jim zaželim prijeten naslednji teden. Napolnite si baterije, dragi moji, in lepo se imejte!

FOR MY EX-COLLEAGUES

I made these little teddy bears of FIMO polymer clay as a farewell gift for my co-workers, after I had worked with them for a little bit more than ten years. And today is just the right day to say 'hi' to them and to wish them a pleasant next week. Refill your batteries, folks, and have fun!

Danes pa ni voščilnica

Saj je bil že skrajni čas, da objavim še kaj drugega! In glede na to, da mi gre zaloga "objavljivih" voščilnic proti koncu, za nove pa še zbiram ideje in materiale, so zvezda današnjega dne te majhne torbice - obeski za ključe. Spletene so iz pisanih ostankov volne, dodani so najrazličnejši gumbki, perlice in okraski, in seveda obroček za ključ. Preprosto, majhno in luškano, vem pa, da sem še zeloooo daleč od takihle "frajerjev".

IT IS NOT A GREETING CARD TODAY

It was about time to post something else apart from cards, wasn't it? And considering the fact that the pile of my "postable" cards is getting smaller, and I'm still gathering ideas and material for the new ones, the star of today's post are these small handbags aka key rings. I knit them using wool leftovers, then I added all kinds of buttons, beads and embellishments, and the key ring of course. Simple, small and cute, but I know I've got a loooong way to go to make such great little guys like these.

Povabilo

Sicer je danes malo bolj mrzlo, ampak kdo pravi, da mora biti piknik ravno zunaj?

AN INVITATION /Take the basket, let's have a picnic/

It's a little bit colder today though, but who says one should have a picnic outdoors?
