So's arts and crafts

Hello, As I was saying in my previous post...the COPIC markers story continues. This time it's a young lady going shopping. For the contour I used a stamp I received some time ago with a card making magazine I bought. Being the first card done using this stamp, I colored it exactly as on the stamp cover...but I think I am going to try other variants of colors and patterns.

Hello all, This weekend was one of the most productive in a long time...Yesterday I bought my first  COPIC  markers (after many weeks of reading and researching about them), so, I couldn't stop drawing and coloring...:) I heaven't drawn so much since I was a kid... Here's one of the cards I actually finished: For this card I used a stamp from Stamperia, and COPIC markers to color the stamped image. The card in 10x15 cm. To be continued... with the COPIC story...:) Daca va place, o gasiti la magazinul  Lavly  in Timisoara...:)

Hello all, This weekend I finally got around using some hand painted paper I  bought last year from Rome. It has a very interesting pattern, and a great mix of colors. I added some quilled circles in the tones of the painted paper. Here's how it looks like:

Hello, I heaven't posted for some time... we have a very hot summer in Timisoara, so I felt like doing nothing...:) Well... almost nothing... :)) here's a teapot full of flowers dedicated to you all, and especially to my good friend Cristina, who received it for her birthday. Have a great summer!

Hello all, I just finished this project I've been working on, for some weeks now...It is a wood box, decorated with quilled vegetables on the lid, and some decoupage vegetables on the sides. I found the idea in  Elizabeth Moad's book: Thrilling Quilling This box will be a gift for a dear friend...and so, because I have to part with it, I think I will make another one..:) Update: As I was saying...I made another one...:) This one has a sunflower on the lid...on the exterior and on the interior too. This was a special order...for a birthday present.

Hello all, In my previous post, I told you about "Street Delivery"...here's what I learned to make from the teenagers from  Camarila Culturala Whoever came to see the stand, had the opportunity to create their own little book necklace, starting from a A5 sheet of paper. We also used various beads to ornate the necklace. For mine, I used some paper beads I made some time ago, and some wood beads. I had sooo much fun making it, and being together with all those wonderful people...:) I can't wait for the next event!

Hello all, This weekend we have in Timisoara a festival called "Street Delivery". It takes place on the street, and hosts various activities...from dancing and music, to arts and handmade goods presentations. To celebrate this event, here are some paper beads I made, in the colors of summer. The patterned papers for the long beads, come from  Artby Jean . Here you will find a fabulous collection of cliparts.
