Something Elegant

RIC's inspiration photo for this week made me want to create something that symbolizes soft shapes and  is  an elegant dress-like.


So I created a nice "dress" for a bottle of wine and paired it with a glassine bag filled with bonbons as its attendant. LOL


In the end I made an extra something for little bath bombs. Perfect as a gift for a couple you're visiting after a long-long time! ;-)

Supplies: Neenah solar white cardstock, Memento - Tuxedo black ink, HA - pale tomato ink, HA & BG - Konichiwa stamp set, Dymo label maker, glassine bag, red washi tape, baker's twine

Just a Quick Hello

...to my best friend again, just to keep her entertained while resting for months. :)


It's quite simple this time with a tiny glitter on the flower...and I've just realized that I might have smashed off a tiny piece of the washi tape. LOL Oh, well... anyway, all that matters is that I keep my friend's confidence that she (and her little miracle) can do it.

Friendship

I needed a card for my best friend who'd be resting for about another 6 months waiting for her little miracle. As we don't live in the same town I think I might mail her a card in every couple of weeks - besides our regular calls and some visits of course. I wish I could do more for her.


It's hard to see in the photo but I also put some glossy accents on the darker hearts.

Supplies: HA - orange soda and pale tomato ink, Memento - tuxedo black ink, Simon Says - Sunnier Days stamp set, EP - Happy Day 6x6 pad

Challenges:
Simon Says Stamp - April Showers And/Or Spring Flowers
Pinspired Challenge 7













I really wanted to take part in CAS-ual Friday's Chevrons and Flowers challenge but I've just missed it by a day. And I used a Paper Smooches sketch for this week but didn't use any PS stamp in the end (totally forgot). Thank God it's Friday!

Happy Easter! / Boldog húsvéti ünnepeket!

I made these Easter origami boxes for D's little nieces and nephews. Since I don't have a die cutting machine, I had to make baskets with my own hands. I saw this box first at Kristina's (see on the right among her most watched videos).

Ezeket a kis origami kosarakat D unokaöccseinek és unokahúgainak készítettem. Mivel nincs vágógépem, ez tűnt a legegyszerűbben elkészíthetőnek. Kristinánál, a fenti linken található egy angol nyelvű videó is az elkészítéséhez.


The felt embellishments were made by my godfather's wife. She makes some embellishments occasionally and then gives it to me as birthday or Xmas gift. :-)

A filc díszeket keresztapám felesége készítette. Néha készít nekem különböző díszeket a képeslapokhoz, aztán megkapom ajándékba valamilyen alkalomra. :-)


The grass is made from green washi tape...finally I could use it!

A füvet dekortapasszal készítettem...végre tudtam ezt a színt is használni megint.


I also still have some 12 x 12 textured cardstock left and these are perfect for these boxes (except that I have to be very careful because they are quite thick). I don't really use them for cards.

Még van egy rakás 12 x 12"-es alapkartonom, amit képeslapokhoz nem nagyon használok, ezeknek a mérete tökéletes az origami dobozkához (azon kívül persze, hogy nagyon kell vigyázni a hajtogatásnál, mert elég vastagok és könnyen megtörnek).

There are some Easter challenges around so I'd like to enter these baskets into the following ones:
Just Add Ink - Just Add Bunnies
CAS-ual Fridays - CFC95 Funny Bunny (I know there's a small card/tag in it, but it's not only a card... I hope it still qualifies)
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes (I just missed the Easter-themed one:)

És végre egy magyar kihívásba is beszállok, méghozzá Pippinél, ahol csak annyi a kitétel, hogy nála vásárolt összetevőkből legyen az alkotás. Nos, a kosár abból van. :-) Bővebb infó ITT. A lájkokat majd FB-n dobjátok a fényképeimre Pippi oldalán, ha kedvetek tartja, nemsokára felkerülnek.

I'm dying to show you my Easter project for the little kids... It's just the camera's flash...again.

The Tricky Vellum + Silver Embossing Combo

The vellum - silver embossing combo was really hard to catch in a photo but I swear it looks really cool in real life. :) Since this week the challenge is 'Make a cute angle' at Daring Cardmakers, I'm entering this card into their challenge. By the way, this card had to be somewhat classy and masculine as it'd go to my bf's dad in April.

Happy Bunny

Though it is the most awful weather outside in the whole time of this winter/spring, Easter is still coming. So after our skiing vacation I thought it was time to create something with a bunny. And I went for some inspiration to the uber-talented Julie Ebersole, the GD this month at CASE Study.




I did some inky mistakes in the upper right corner unfortunately but I think the small carrots cover them up perfectly.

I'm entering this card into the latest CASE Study challenge.

Bday Card for Grandpa

The basic idea was that I have to make a card for my grandpa's bday next week as I'll be abroad at the time. It also had to have a smile... that turned out to be green...and interactive!

On this day... 

...you have every right to smile!

Keep Calm and Drum On

When I got my Happy Father's Day set from Lawn Fawn I wanted to try out the armchair stamp in the first place. Then I fussy cut it and it was laying around on my desk for weeks. I knew it'd become handy soon because quite a few birthdays were around the corner to which I was not supposed to give girly cards. :) So I kept it simple and masculine just as the latest challenge of Addicted to CAS requires it.


This one goes to one of my colleagues in April. He's a father of three, he's always there for his family, for us and keeps working every single night. Above all of that he plays the drums in a folk band... and he keeps drumming on his chair behind me at work, too. :))

As always, thanks for stopping by!
