A lovely card for today for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. With one of my new stamps.





Thanks for stopping by and good night.

And for today I have a sweet card for a very sweet girl.


I'm just in love with this hand stamped polka dots background.

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.

Azi Michell in Boise a organizat un blog hop pt a nu uita ca octombrie este luna mondiala a cancerului de san.
Faceti o runda si veti vedea ce minunatii au pregatit aceste doamne talentate.

O zi frumoasa si multumesc de vizita.

Blue, red and green.

Hello world.

Today I manage to make a new Christmas card for which I used the color combo from Basicgrey Challenges Colour Combo 2 and is a tall card as required by the Caardvarks Challenge.

I love the polka dots background stamped with white ink on my red cardstock and the almost spring green ribbon.



Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.

Azi am facut o felicitare de Craciun folosind culorile de la concursul Basicgrey Challenges Colour Combo 2 si este o felicitare inalta asa cum cerea concursul Caardvarks Challenge.

Am o comnada pt cateva felicitari de Craciun si is foarte ocupata sa fac cat mai multe din care sa pot alege.

Sper ca va place aceasta felicitare vesela. Fondul e obtinut prin stampilare cu bulinute albe, iar pamblica am ales-o foarte verde, un verde primavaratec, dar care consider ca se potriveste bine cu rosul fundalului.

Multumesc de vizita si o zi buna.

Green, red and blue.

A new card for today. A Christmas card with the color combo from BasicGrey Challenges Color Combo #2.





Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.

O noua felicitare pt concursul de la BasicGrey.

Red flower.

For my friend Alina. She has some very hard times, but sheis strong, smart, independent and beautiful. She is a perfect mother and friend. She is a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For this card I made a very nice 3-D flower using the tutorial from Just Us Girls.



Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.


Aceasta felicitare am facut-o special pt prietena mea Alina. Care are acum o perioada foarte grea, dar pe care o va parcurge cu bine. Pentru ca este o femeie puternica, desteapta, independenta si frumoasa. O mama buna si un om de nadejde.

Am folosit metoda prezentata pe blogul Just Us Girls de catre Mona Pendelton. Am folosit alta hartie, ca nu am din cea de matase, dar fac eu rost de o bucatica, in curand.

Sper sa va placa. O zi buna.

Rosa Christmas!

A small card for the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #41.

I love the red and white hand stamped papers.

I hope you like it to.

And here is my beauty:
Have a nice day and thanks for stopping by.

Ultima creatie. O cartulie mica pt craciun. Numai buna sa o prind de un cadou pt cineva indragostit de roz.

O zi buna

Pink and grey-2.

A new card for a birthday. I used the colors from Embellish Magazine Challenge.




Thanks for stopping by and have a nice week end.


Azi dimineata, ca tot nu aveam somn, am facut o felicitare pt o onomastica. Sper sa va placa.

O zi buna.

Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #18

What an interesting color challenge today at the Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #18. And this is my card, a Christmas card. I'm in the Christmas card period.


I love the very fine background stamping, the richness of the cream with kraft branches satin ribbon. It's an almost flat card. Like I planed.

I'm wondering which kind of envelope are necessary for the lovely cards with very rich ribbons and 3-D embellishments????

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice evening.


Deci aceasta e cea de-a treia felicitare pe ziua de azi si se incadreaza in categoria: felicitari pt sarbatori cat mai plate, ca sa nu atraga atentia asupra plicului, ca le voi trimite in Romania.
Am folosit culorile sugerate de Dawn in Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #18.

Sper sa va placa. O seara placuta si ma bucur de vizita. Un mesaj m-ar bucura tare mult.

Pink and grey.

For today I have a lovely card for the Embellish Magazine Challenge.

I just love it.
It's so simple, but took me the entire morning to make it.

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.




Azi am facut doua felicitari, una pt o fetita dulce, la care sper sa ajunga cu bine si una pt Embellish Magazine Challenge, pt care trebuia sa folosesc roz pal, roz aprin si gri inchis, plus ceva sclipicios.

Am muncit mult la ea desi pare asa de simpla. Mai ales pana m-am hotarat unde si cum pun stampilutele si cum le aranjez in pagina. Is incatata de cum e iesi, desi ii lipseste funda. dar cumva nu se potrivea.

O zi buna va doresc si multumesc de vizita.

An orange Christmas card.

For today I have a card with my favorite stamp. It's a Christmas card in orange for which I used the Clean&Simple sketch.

And here is m beauty.

The orange paper is hand stamped with a lovely snowflakes stamp and red ink. And for the red band I used another snoflakes and white ink.





Azi am realizat o felicitare folosind stampiluta mea favorita: furtuna de zapada. E pe portocaliu, o culoare nu prea folosita pt felicitarile de craciun, dar care imi place teribil cum a iesit.
Acum is in plin activitate pt a termina felicitarile de Craciun pe care vreau sa le trimit in Romania. si deoarece mi-e groaza ca se vor "pierde" pe drum, le fac extrem de plate. Nu prea multe fundite si reliefuri ca sa nu atraga atentia prin plic.

Sper sa va placa. O zi buna.

A new Christmas card.

The Just us girls has a wonderful color combination for their challenge. I just love it.

And this is my card for this challenge.




Deci aceasta e a doua felicitare pt azi. Am folosit culorile de la competitia "Just Us Girls" si sunt incantata de rezultat. Prima incercare a ajuns direct la gunoi. asa ca is destul de amarata.

Sper sa va placa. O seara placuta si multumesc pt vizita.

Halloween colors in a non-Halloween card.

I love stamping. And today I've made a card for the ColourQ Challenge using some Halloween colors. But not for a Halloween card.



I hope you like it. I love it.


Deci azi am reusit sa gasesc timp sa fac o mica felicitare. Am folosit culorile de la ColourQ Challenge pt o felicitare cu urarea: insanatosire grabnica.

Sper sa va placa, mie imi place teribil de mult. Modelul a fost stampilat cu portocaliu si mov folosind o superba stampila.

For a sweet girl.

A new week, some new projects and new cards.

The card for today is for a baptism. For a sweet little girl. I used a slightly modified sketch from Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 40.

A very nice sketch which I'm planing to use tomorrow for another card.



Thanks for stopping by and have a nice evening.


Deci azi am fost destul de neproductiva. Dar am reusit sa fac felicitarea pt unul din cele 2 botezuri pe care le avem sambata. Am folosit modelul sugerat de Karen Giron pt SSSC40,
dar adaptat ca eu nu am perforator rotund, e pe lista cu ce mai vreau sa cumpar, in curand.

Sper sa va placa, mie imi place tare mult.

O seara placuta.

Blue like my mood.

I'm in the blue mood. That means I'm not too happy, actually even nervous and sad. But, the show must go on. And here I'm referring to life.

Ok, so here is my card for Crafty Creations Challenge 37.



And blue is the color. White is just a very very very pale blue. ;-)


Deci sunt nitel cu fundul in sus, ca planurile mele nu merg cum am stabilit. dar..................e doar o zi, asa ca trece iute. Si poate reusesc totusi macar o parte din ce mi-am dorit sa fac maine.

Asa ca provocarea de la Crafty Creations Challenge 37 s-a potrivit perfect. O felicitare albastra.

Ok, e si cu alb, dar stiti voi albul e doar un albastru foarte pal.

MI se pare tare eleganta.

Sper sa va placa.

Christmas tree, again!

Hello world!

It's almost snowing. Cold and rainy. I have a lovely jazz CD on and I'm making Christmas cards.
The first one is a "copy" of my Christmas tree (Saturday Spotlight with Hiden Potential 02 .) and fit perfectly in the Stamp Something Challenge .

I use a new snowflake and a small star for the top of the tree.


I love it.

And this is my second card for today. I used for this one the very nice sketch from CPS 137.



Thanks for stopping by and have a nice and warm day.


Deci la noi e o vreme urata, urata si iar urata. Rece, undeva in jurul lui zero si bureaza. Oribil. Sa nu scoti nici macar varful nasului afara.

Asa ca profit de putin timp liber si ascult niste jazz si fac felicitari de Craciun.
Prima e o "copie" a unei felicitari facute acum cateva zile. Am folosit un nou model de fulg de nea si am pus o steluta aurie in varful bradului. Mi se pare perfecta.

Si a doua felicitare pe ziua de azi. Tare simpla (mi-am cam omorat ochii colorand imaginea!) si de efect.


Sper sa va placa si o zi frumoasa va doresc.

Black and red!

I never bought a card with this colors. Black is for funeral; that's the rule. And ................now I use this color for cards. Life is strange.

So, I made a new card today, maybe because tomorrow I'm very busy and not at home.

It's for Penny Black Saturday Challenge.

And here is my beauty.

Of course the picture is bad. :-(((((



So, the idea of the trees is from here. Of course for me was impossible to follow the tutorial from Sandi Maciver. Because I don't have the tools. But I improvised, like usual.

I love designer paper but I don't have too many so................I use one of my 3 :-(( Penny Black stamps and made the model and then I used my color pens from Faber Castell ( I should buy some more colors) to get some colors. And voila, a new "designer paper".

I love the small pearly button with the organza ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice evening or morning.

Deci azi am fost tare harnica. Aceasta fiind cea de-a treia felicitare azi. Si as spune ca e favorita, de azi - cel putin.

Cum bugetul meu e mai mult decat restrans si cum am fffffffffffff putine hartii speciale, am improvizat. Deci am luat o hartie crem si am stampilat randuri cu o stampila de la Penny Black, folosind cerneala rosie. Apoi am colorat cu noile mele "carioci - pensula" (ceva profesional cica, la cat costa ar trebui sa fie!) modelul. Imi place teribil de cum a iesit si imi bateam capul unde sa folosesc hartia si........din multitudinea de idei am ales-o pe cea cu braduti.

Normal ca nu am putut sa ii fac asa cum i-a facut in tutorialul ei Sandi Maciver pt ca nu am sculele necesare. asa ca, am folosit pur si simplu o foarfeca. Asa ca nu sunt ei perfecti dar arata superb. Mai ales de tin cont si de faptul ca i-am stricat o tura. Adica prima incercare de a-i lipi a esuat. Am scapat un cubulet de lipit peste unul din ei si s-a stricat un punct mic pe un brad. Asa ca i-am dezlipit si retaiat ceva mai mici si am aranjat marginile cu putina culoare rosie folosind pur si simplu tusiera. A doua incercare de a obtine un aranjament fain, a decurs apoi fara incidente majore.

Is innebunita dupa nasturasii mei de sidef. I-as lipi pe orice, dar............tre sa si potriveasca o tara.

No, sper sa va placa noua mea felicitare.

Christmas tree!

One more card for today. This one is for Saturday Spotlight with Hiden Potential 02 .

I love the way the small decoration of the tree moves when you shake the card. And the soft glitter on the side of the picture.



Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day.

Azi am fost tare productiva. Dar gata cu distractia ca am de lucru.

Felicitarea aceasta e evident pt Craciun si am folosit cateva noi trucuri invatate de la profesionisti. Imi place teribil cum arata peisajul din calc si marginea cu sclipici fin care sclipiceste doar asa putin, exact ca zapada iarna cand e proaspat nins.
Decoratiile bradului sun margelute fine montate pe un fir de metal, am pus mai putine ca sa se poata misca liber si astfel sa dea un element de surpriza felicitarii.

Sunt tare multumita de cum a iesit.

O zi buna va doresc si multumesc ca ati intrat sa vedeti ce mai mesteresc. De va place puteti cumpara sau puteti lasa un mic comentar.

A new day, a new Challenge!

Hello!

Today I made a lovely card for Stamping with Us Challenge (I use their colors) and for Penny Black Saturday Challenge (my Hello stamp is a Penny Black stamp).



So, I used white and light blue card stock, an old olive satin ribbon and button, white organza ribbon and blue ink. The stamps are from Penny Black and Artemio.

This is a card for my friend. I hope she would like it.

Thanks for looking by and have a nice day.


Deci aceasta e felicitarea de astazi. Am folosit culorile sugerate de concursul de la Stamp with Us si conditiile de la Penny Black Saturday Challenge (sa folosesc panglici si nasturi si sa includ cel putin o stampiluta Penny Black, am doar 3 stampilute de la ei si au niste stampile superbe. Musai trebuie sa imi iau si eu cateva cu imagini. Sunt adorabile.)

Sunny day in my heart!

Hello!

My card for the Our Creative Corner - Sketch Challenge.


Thanks for looking, and a nice day.


Deci aceasta e felicitarea pt concursul de la Our Creative Corner - Sketch Challenge.

Sper sa va placa.

Iar aceasta e o felicitare din cele pt orice ocazie pe care le fac sa le duc spre vanzare.


Ador panglicile. La prima nu am nici o panglica si mi se pare goala. Inca ma gandesc sa vad unde si cum pot prinde o panglica, desi mi se pare completa asa si de aceea nu am pus o panglica. Ma mai gandesc.

Imi place teribil aceasta hartie Heyda imprimeul e asa de faiinnnnn, cu putin sclipicel, superba. Trebuie sa o mai folosesc la un proiect.

O zi frumoasa va doresc si ma bucur de orice comentar referitor la munca mea.

Card for my heart

Hello world!

Here is my card for the Sweet Sunday Skatch Challenge 38.

I used my lovely Tilda paper stack.






And this is a sweet card for Kate. If you want to know more about her, just read HERE. She needs us now.





Thanks so much for stopping by and have a sunny week end.

So, inca doua felicitari. Prima e pt concursul Sweet Sunday Skatch Challenge 38. Am folosit pt aceasta felicitare scumpa mea hartie de la Tilda (scumpa si la propriu si la figurat) si sunt tare incantata de rezultat.

Cea de-a doua e o felicitare pt o fetita dulce si bolnava de cancer - Kate. Jennifer McGuire a organizat o colecta de felcitari si nu numai pt ea si familia ei. Iar acum organizeaza una si pt Eric, un baietel bolnav. Pt detalii intrati pe blog-ul lui Jennifer: http://jennifermcguireink.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/08/hello-cardmakersif-you-are-like-me-you-love-any-excuse-to-make-a-card-and-it-is-even-better-when-it-can-be-given-to-someo.html

Asa ca am facut un mic pachet cu cateva felicitari pt Kate, Eric dar si pt parinti sau frati si care sper sa ajunga cu bine. Din pacate posta era inchisa la 3, asa ca ma duc luni sa pun pachetul.

A lost Challenge!

My Japan card. For the WCMD Challenge 1.

This is how I fill Japan. Clear and simple.

I love this card. The picture is very very bad, but you can see the muster of the cream paper.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The second challenge is Mexico!!!!!
I love Mexico. We have been there in our honeymoon. And it was perfect. And Mexico is a such a beautiful country. It's amazing and so interesting.
I hope to go once again. As soon as possible. Tomorrow, it will be perfect.
I just need to wait until my daughter is big enough for the long trip.

I need to make a card. Let's see what I get out of my hands.

So, that's it.
For the WCMD Challenge 2 - Mexico.




And India. I love the food, and the colors and the beauty of the women dresses. I have a sari, but I need a new one. With exactly the same colors as my card for the WCMD Callenge 3 - India.




The picture doesn't show the very nice and very gold motive of my hand stamped paper.

And the last card for the WCMD Challenge no. 4 - Australia.
I love this card. It's dusty and I made it with wax pencil. It's perfect for me.

Mojo Monday, again!

A new card with the sketch from Mojo Monday. The background is stamped with my new stamps (I just bought them yesterday and they are gorgeous).

I must wait for a sunny day to take a better picture. The red pieces are embossed and glitter nicely.

I hope you like it.

Deci aceasta este ultima felicitare. E inca calda si ciufulita. Abia am terminat-o si sunt tare incantata de cum a iesit. Ca model am folosit modelul concursului de la Mojo Monday. Au niste idei tare faine si de cateva saptamani tot incerc sa tin pasul cu ei si sa mai invat una alta.

Fondul, adica hartia lila, are modelul obtinut prin stampilare. Ieri am gasit la Thalia 2 stampile superbe si aceast model e facut cu una din ele.
In fine, ar mai fi 2 modele de stampilute care mi-ar place, dar sunt la buget restrans. Asa ca ma multumesc cu astea doua si poate saptamana viitoare mai cumpar una.

Mesajul e stampilat cu una din cele 3 (!!!!!!) stampilute cu mesaje pe care le am. Ups, is 4 modele, dar cel pt Happy Birthday e asa de incarcat ca e mai mult un desen, decat un mesaj.

O zi frumoasa va doresc.

Boo!

A Halloween card for the Saturday Spotlight Challenge!!

I love it.

And now I just discovered that it has the colors for the Pink Elephant Color Challenge.

I really love this card.

Deci aceasta felicitare am facut-o pt ziua baietelului unui amic. Noi nu o sa ne ducem la petrecere, dar m-am gandit ca o mica atentie ii va face placere.

Aceasta fiind decoratia pt una din fete. Pt copii, de obicei, decorez cel putin 2 din cele 4 ale unei felicitari. Mi se pare mai interesant asa si cred ca si pt ei e mai deosebit.

Inca sunt un pic socata ca am facut-o pe negru. Ca negru la o felcitare te duce cu gandul la felicitari de condoleante. Dar tema concursului la care am inscris-o era Halloween si mi s-a parut potrivit.

Imaginea ursuletului a fost stampilata cu o stampiluta si pt ca nu am inca atatea tusuri pt stampile am folosit pur si simplu acoarele. Iar apoi, cand s-a uscat, am pictat-o. A iesit tare draguta.

Deci dupa ce mi-am batut capul cu ce culori sa folosesc si cum sa le aranjez, gasesc, dupa ce o terminasem si inscrisesem deja la concurs, un alt concurs pt care trebuia sa faci o felicitare exact cu aceleasi culori. Adica: negru, alb, portocaliu si mov. Super! Am inscris-o si acolo.

Marea majoritatea a concursurilor sunt doar pt idei, pt a ajuta la cunoasterea celor ca au acest hobby si normal pt reclama la diverse produse pt acest hobby.

Eu inca lucrez modest cu putine materiale si improvizez la greu ca sa suplinesc lipsa uneltelor. Dar e atat de fain.

Deci de va place ceva, mi-ar place sa lasa-ti si un mic comentar.

For friends only!

A new Mojo Challenge.


I love the idea so this is the first card. I made it for my friend.
I hope you like it too.

Round and around!

I love challenges. And I just used the idea for a round card from Embellish Challenge (http://embellishmagazine.com/blog/2009/10/circle-card-color-challenge/) to make a card for a baptism. Not to bad for a very fast card.

Lila is the color!

This is my card for the Get Sketchy no. 7.

A very simple Christmas card. I love my new stamps and embossed the motive is gorgeous.

Some more polka dots

I love the polka dots. And here is a lovely card for Polka Dot Paradise Color Challenge and for Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge (SSSC37).

A card for my love

The Polka Dot Paradise Color Challenge has just my colors (ok, not realy burgundy, but red is my color) and I just want to make a card for my lovely and very very very understanding husband.

I used my neu polka dots stamp wich I got today.

And this is the result.

I hope you like it.







Recipe for my card:
- Cardstok - some lovely light orange (from???)
- Paper - orange and cream
- Stamps - Artemio (www.hubihobby.com)
- Accesoire - Burgundy ribbon from Truba Fashion

Let's start!

So, this is my new blog. I hope to have time to organize this nicelly.
Here are some of my cards:

My hobby and I!

I love cardmaking. And this is one of my cards from my small (but fast enlarging) collection.



Am descoperit un nou hobby. De fapt am facut felicitari de multi ani.
Nu stiu cand am facut prima felicitare, dar stiu ca cel mai mare proiect al meu a fost acum 5 ani, cu ocazia casatoriei.

Aveam nevoie de invitatii si aici costa o avere. Plus ca eu aveam si putini invitati asa ca nu se merita, firmele facand pe comanda de minim 100. Asa ca m-am dus la un magazin de produse speciale pt diverse hobby-uri (e inca magazinul meu favorit, chit ca e la 60 km de mine) si am luat o parte din materiale. O alta parte am cumparat-o cand am fost in Romania si uite asa mi-am facut invitatiile pt cele 2 :-) nunti.
Eu am fost incatata de ele, iar invitatii le-au considerat interesante si foarte frumoase (modesta de mine).

Apoi am luat un mini set de facut felicitari si mai mesteream cate una cand aveam nevoie si nu ajungeam sa cumpar.

Cea mai mare drama am suferit-o cand am mesterit juma de zi la o felicitare si respectivul, a luat-o, a indoit-o frumos :-( in doua si a indesat-o in buzunar. Am murit nitel atunci. Mai ales ca ma chinuisem atat sa o fac cat mai frumoasa si mai dichisita si.............a ajuns direct in cos.

Si acum 3-4 luni o prietena stabilita in America mi-a dat un link cu blogul ei si................am "descoperit America".
Culmea cu cateva zile inainte de asta ma dusesem sa iau niste mici fleacuri de la un magazin de solduri si acolo aveau tare multe materiale de mesterit si-mi luasem niste hartii si paglici si nasturasi ca sa fac niste felicitari pt copilasii prietenelor mele (4 au nascut, si toate fetitele au numele Maria ca unic nume, iar doua dintre ele mai au si un al doilea prenume) si pt prietenele care sunt insarcinate si care vor naste in curand.

Si uite asa se nascu un nou hobby. Celelate fiind lenevitul (timp pt asta o sa am cand ies la pensie :-)) si cititul.


Asa, si la insistentele prietenelor mele, am hotarat sa fac un blog. In felul acesta e mai usor pt mine sa particip la diverse concursuri organizate de specialistele in mesterit cu hartii si stampilute, iar prietenii pot vedea usor "creatiile" mele.

Si am incalecat pe o sea si v-am spus povestea mea si a blogului si hobby-ului meu.

Sper sa va placa munca mea si de va place puteti sa si cumparati.
