Art dnevnik/Art journal

S prijateljico, ki sem jo spoznala na forumu atcsforall.com sva se dogovorili, da si bova izmenjali art dnevnik. Jaz sem njenega že kar nekaj časa nazaj dobila, ona pa je morala na mojega čakati nekoliko dlje. Ampak na koncu mi je le uspelo in dnevnik že veselo potuje proti lastnici. Listi so akvarelni, prva in zadnja stran pa sta iz škatle, ki sem jo spravila. Za vezavo sem uporabila navadno bombažno nitko in dodala nekaj perlic in ključ.

I did a swap with a friend that I met on atcsforall.com. We decided that we will do an art journal swap. I got her art journal some time ago, but it took me some time to complete it and send it to her. I used aquarelle paper, the front and the back is made from a box that I saved and recycled. For binding I used a cotton thread and added some pearls and a key.

Da ne bi bil dnevnik preveč dolgočasen sem vanj dodala tudi tage. Ob ustvarjanju dnevnika sem zelo uživala in se nisem obremenjevala z  izidom. Uporabila sem razne tehnike in načine in vsaka stran je drugačna.. no skoraj vsaka :)

I didn't want the journal to be to bored so I included some tags in it. As I was working in this journal I enjoyed it. I used a lot of diffrent technikque and every page is different... well almost all are different :)

In še presenečenje :)  kadar sem naredila album, ki je imel več strani in bi jih bilo težko poslikat in tudi slike ne pokažejo veliko, sem razmišljala, kako fajn bi bilo narediti video in vam na ta način bolje pokazati podrobnosti albuma. No, pa sem se lotila tudi tega projekta. Morem priznat, da sem si predstavljala, da bo vse skupaj bilo težje in bolj zakomplicirano, a najtežje pri vsem tem je bila uporaba in nastavitev stojala. Upam, da boste v video uživali in komentarji so dobrodošli.

And for a surprise :) Always when i did an album I wanted to share with you how it looks and I couldn't take a picture of every page because it would be to many pictures and I always wished I could do a video to show the album to you. So guess what? I did! It wasn't so hard as I thought it would be, it is really easy. The biggest problem I had was with the tripod. I hope you enjoy the video and any comments are very welcome.

  

Vile/Fairies

Pred kratkim sem naletela na to objavo, ker rada recikliram in se mi je ideja zdele super sem še sama preizkusila risanje vil na rolice od toaletnega papirja.

 Not so long ago I saw this I love to recycle and I love the idea so I decided to make my own fairies. 

Obraz sem prvo skicirala s svinčnikom, nato pa sem ga pobarvala in senčila z akvarelnimi barvicami. Nato sem pobarvala še lase, krono in ozadje, ter dodala podrobnosti.

I draw the face with a mechanical pencil, I colored it and shaded with aquarelle pencils. Then I add hair, crown and the background.

Tej vili sem še okrasila krono. Vse skupaj mi ni vzelo več kot 15 min. Je zelo hitro in zabavno ustvarjanje na malo drugačen način.

To his fairy, I added some pearls on the crown. it didn't took me more than 15 minutes to do one fairy, It is a very fun and interesting craft.

Mixed media platno/Mixed media canvas

Zelo sem vesela, da se je moja ustvarjalna muza vrnila. In ker sem v Tediju že kar nekaj časa nazaj kupila platno, sem se odločila, da se poigram z mixed tehniko. Rada ustvarjam, ampak mixed media in art journaling pa sta moja najljubša načina ustvarjanja. 

I am very happy that my craft muse is back. Some time ago I bought some canvas, so I decided I will play with some mixed media. I love to craft and art, but my favorite crafting is mixed media and art journaling.

Za ozadje sem uporabila papir,  na katerem razmažem odvečno akrilno barvo, notno črtovje in štampiljke.

Nato sem okoli papirja še namazala z akrilno barvo, da se je vse skupaj nekako povezalo. Iz ostankov scrapbook papirja sem izrezala hiške in jih nalepila z mod podge-om. Izrezala sem tudi nekaj rožič in jim navila cvetove, da sem dobila 3d učinek. Nato sem še tu in tam dodala washi tape.

For the background I used the drop paper from my acrylic paints and some music paper and stamps. Then I used some acrylics so that the background come together. I cut some house from scraps of scrapbook paper. I also cut some flowers and curl the petals so I got a more 3d effect.

Reciklirana embalaža/ Recycled packaging

Včasih ko kaj kupim in je del embalaže tudi lepenka, si vedno mislim, kako dober tag bi bil tole, posebne oblike že izrezan, samo okrasiti ga je treba. No, največji problem pri tem je odstraniti plastičen del embalaže od lepenkastega, saj se velikokrat zgodi (vsaj meni), da se lepenka raztrga. Sedaj pa sem ugotovila, način kako ju ločiti in obdržati tag cel. Pomagam si s craft nožkom in zelo počasi napredujem. Dobro je tudi če je lepenka bolj trdna saj vse skupaj lažje nadzoruješ. Tudi če se majhen del tag-a raztrga, ga zlepim nazaj z belim lepilom, če ne uporabljaš barve za prekrit tag-a bi verjetno lahko uporabili tudi lepilni trak.

When I buy something, and the part of the packaging is also a cardboard, I always think it would be a nice tag, it is cut and special shape. The biggest problem, is how to separated the cardboard from the plastic part. I discovered, it can be done, very slow and with a craft knife and it helps if the cardboard is sturdy. Even if a part of the tag gets tear, I glue it with white glue, you can even use tape, if you won't use paint on it.

Nato sem uporabila barvo in jo s pomočjo kartice razmazala po lepenki, to naredim na tisti strani, kjer ima lepenka barvo in napis, da to prekrijem uporabim temnejše barve. Zelo mi je vseč oblika vijoličastega tag-a.

Then I use some paint and I paint it with a card, I use paint on the side where the colours and words are. I love the shape of the purple tag.

Na drugo stran pa sem z lepilom v stiku nalepila papir, na katerega bom pisala. Za enega sem uporabila črtast in za drugega karo papir. Sem človek, ki rabi črte, da lepo napišem, drugače je vsaka črka drugje. Mi je pa karo papir vsekakor lepši/ljubši od črtastega, če vas je morda zanimalo :)

On the other side I used a glue stick and glue some paper down. For one I used lined paper and for the other graph. I need lined paper, or else my alphabets are everywhere. But I prefer graph paper, if you were wondering :)

Tretji tag pa sem okrasila z papirjem, ki sem ga pobarvala s kavo.

This tag I did with a paper that I coffee dyed.

Perle iz blaga/ Fabric beads

Izdelovanje perlic iz ostankov blaga je odlično sprostitveno opravilo za večer pred televizorjem. Izdelava perl je super zabavno in ob tem porabiš še perle, ki so se ti razstresle ali pa od polomljenega nakita. Ne vem, pa kaj se je zgodilo s sliko, da se vidi odsev perl.

Doing beads from fabric is a great relaxing job in front of TV. Doing this kind of beads is super fun and you get to use all of the beads from the broken jewelry. I don't know what happened to the picture, there is a reflection from beads.  

Toliko različnih barv in barvnih kombinacij je možno narediti. Blago, ki sem ga uporabila sem dobila v poklon ali pa od starih oblačil.

So many color combinations and so many colors. The fabric that I used, I got it from a happy mail or I used it from old clothes. 

Za enkrat mi je uspelo narediti le dve zapestnici, Uporabila sem memory žico in še nekatere druge perle, ki sem jih našla v škatli s perlami, tako da je zapestnica res raznolika, od plastičnih, fimo, lesenih in iz blaga perlic. Zapestnici so bile komaj končani, ko mi je zgornjo zapestnico že zaplenila sestra, spodnja pa bo moja,

For now I only did two bracelets. I used memory wire and some other beads that I found in my box, so the bracelet is really diverse, I used plastic, fimo, wood and fabric beads. I finished the bracelets and the one on the top my sister took it and the one from the bottom is mine.

Januar Tag

Živijo moji blog prijatelji. Vem, da me dolgo ni bilo, ampak sem si vzela malo oddiha od ustvarjanja, vseeno pa so ideje kar prihajale, vse sem si zapisala, zato je skrajni čas, da začnejo rokice spet malo migat.

V eni od FB skupin imamo izziv narediti 12 tagcev v letu 2015, vsak mesec en tag, ker mi je ideja  všečna, sem se odločila sodelovati. To je moj januarski tag. Je recikliran, saj sem ga naredila od ostanka škatle, z ustvarjalnim nožkom sem odstranila zgornjo plast in dobila valovito lepenko, nato sem lepenko samo še oblikovala v obliko, za vzorec sem vzela tag, ki mi je ležal doma. V strukturnoo pasto sem dodala akrilno barvo in z njeno pomočjo nalepila fasadno mrežico.

Hello my blog friends. I know it was a long time since I post anything here, I took same break from crafting, but I had a lot of crafting ideas and I wrote them down on a piece of paper.

In a FB group, we have a challenge that we do a tag every month, I found the idea very interesting, so I decided to participate. This is my January tag. I recycled some box, I took the upper layer with the help of a craft knife down and I got the corrugated cardboard. Then I design the cardboard in the shape that I wanted. In the structure past I added some acrylic paint and I glue the mesh with it.

Odločila sem se, da bom na vsak tag napisala pod katiri mesec spada. Na papir sem naredila nekaj luknjic in ročno sešila. Dodala nelepke in washi trak.

I decided I will write on every tag which month it was made. I did some holes on the paper and I hand stitched, added some stickers and washi tape. 

 

Da pa ne bi bil zgornji del preveč pust sem dodala še sponko, ki sem jo naredila sama in vam jo v tej objavi tudi pokazala.

I didn't want the top to be dull, so I added a paper clip that I did it myself and shoved them in this post. 

Junk dnevnik za recepte/ Recipe junk journal

V FB skupini Junk Journal Junkies sem sodelovala pri izmenjavi junk dnevnika, tema dnevnika je bila recepti. Čeprav ne kuham/pečem veliko, sem se vseeno odločila da bom sodelovala in si zapisala recepte, ki jih uporabljam, nekaj pa jih bom še poiskala, seveda, bom vse to naredila ko mi moja partnerica pri izmenjavi pošlje junk dnevnik, ki ga je ona naredila zame. Zelo na hitro vam bom pokazala, nekaj strani iz dnevnika. Dnevnik vsebuje 26 strani in je velik 12x17cm. Za vezavo sem uporabila 32mm obročke. Posebnost junk dnevnikov je v tem, da so narejeni iz ostankov papirja in dodatkov, za junk dnevnike se naj ne bi uporabilo nič novega papirja, ker nisem imela tako veliko ostankov, sem malo goljufala in uporabila tudi nekaj novih še neuporabljenih papirjev. Najbolj všeč mi je obesek in pa papirji, ki sem jih pobarvala z instant kavo z okusom vanilije, sedaj pa papirji božansko dišijo.

In the FB group Junk Journal Junkies, we have a swap and the theme is Recipe junk journal. Although I don't cook/bake a lot I decided I will do this swap and write in my junk journal recipes that I use and find some more. I will show you some pictures from the junk journal. It has 26 pages and it is 5x7 inches big. For the binding I used binding rings. The junk journal should be done with junk and scraps material, but I didn't have so big papers of junk so I also used new papers. Most off all I like the charm and the paper that I coffee died with instant vanilla coffee and it smells very good.

Tako izgleda obesek. Imam kar nekaj ketne iz katere si nameravam narediti verižice ampak za enkrat mi še ni uspelo. Ketno sem pripela na obroček, nanj sem z majhnimi obročki dodala perlice, ki sem jih pred tem dala na žičko. Čeprav naj bi glossy accents držal perlice gor in se naj ne bi ločile in spustile, pri meni nikoli ni tako, zato sem morala dodati na konec štoparje. Če ima kdo nasvet kaj sem počela narobe bom zelo vesela.

This is the charm. I have a lot of chain because I want to do a necklaces, but don't have time to do them. I added the chain to the binding ring, and with jump rings I added the eyelets on which I put some pearls. I used glossy accents to hold the pearls on place, but the pearls keep falling down, so I used some stopping bead at the end. If anyone has some tips, what I did wrong, I will be very happy.

Tako izgleda platnica junk journala, platnica in zadnja stran sta večji od preostalih listov. Na obročke sem zavezala čipko, da se ne bodo uničili papirji. Nato sem dodala nekaj ostankov papirja in prtiček, washi trak in kartico, kjer se lahko doda napis (uporabila sem kar nekaj printanih zadev, ki so zastonj in linke bom objavila na koncu).

This is how the first page looks like. The first and the last page are a little bigger from all of the rest of the pages. On the binding rings I add some lace. Then I added some scraps paper, washi tape and some journaling card. (I used a lot of free printables, I will put the links at the end)

Naredila sem majhen žepek za dve kartici na kateri lahko napišeš recept. Zelo mi je všeč napis na žepku: Kuham z vinom, včasih ga dodam tudi k jedem. :)

I did a little pocket and add two recipe cards. I love the saying on the pocket: I cook with wine, sometime I even add it to the food :)

Ker sem doma našla stare knjige  recepti sem nekaj strani iztrgala in jih uporabila v dnevniku. Polovico kroga sem prilepila, drugo polovico pa pustila, da lahko za krog zataknem kartice. Na desni strani pa lahko vidimo črtast papir na katerega lahko zapišemo recept.

I found some old recipe book, I tear some pages out and use them in the journal. I glue half of the circle and under the other half you can tuck the journaling cards. On the right side, I put some lined paper.

Na levi strani je ponovno veliko prostora za zapisovanje receptov. Na desni pa sem ponovno naredila žepek, kjer sem zataknila kartice.

On the left side there is a lot of room to write down the recipe. On the right again there is a pocket for recipe cards. 

Na levo stran sem prilepila kos torte. Desno pa sem dodala kuverto v katero lahko spraviš recepte, ki jih izrežeš iz revij.

On the left side I glue a piece of cake. On the right side I added an envelope, in which you can save recipes that you cut out from a magazine

Tukaj imamo spet žepek na levi in črtast list za zapisovanje.

On the left there is another pocket and on the right a paper to write a recipe.

V junk dnevnik za recepte sem dodala tudi karo papir in barvne kartone, na katere lahko nalepiš ali napišeš recept.

In recipe junk journal I also added some graphic paper and some color cardstock on which you can glue or write a recipe.






V junk dnevniku za recepte je kar nekaj prostora za zapisovanje in shranjevanje receptov. Kako se pa vam zdi? Imate kakšen dober recept, ki si ga lahko zapišem v moj dnevnik za recepte?

In the recipe junk journal, there is a lot of room to write or to save recipes. What do you think about the journal? Do you have any good recipes for me to write in my junk journal?

Mini klobučki/Mini hats

Enostaven in zabaven projekt, kako lahko iz vsakdanjih stvari, ki so v bistvo odpadki, recikliramo in naredimo male luškane klobučke. Potrebovali bomo, ostanek škatle, pokrovček, lepilno pištolo, akrilno barvo in dodatke.

Easy and fun project, how can you from everyday things that we throw away, recycled and make small cute hats. We will need, a box, lid, glue gun, acrylic paint and accessories.

Iz kartonske škatle sem izrezala 6 krogcev. Za vsak pokrovček dva kroga. Kroge sem skupaj zlepila z belim lepilom, da sta se kroga dobro zlepila in da sta ostala ravna sem krogce za nekaj časa postavila pod kup knjig.

From cardboard boxes I cut 6 circles. For each lid two circles. I glued the circles together with white glue. I put all three circles under a pile of books so that the circles would glue good together and that they remained flat.

Nato sem pokrovčke nalepila na krogce iz kartona, uporabila sem lepilno pištolo, po vsej verjetnosti lahko uporabite kaj drugega,ampak meni se je ta način zdel najhitrejši.

Then I glued the lid on the circle. I used glue gun, but you can probably use anything else, I just wanted something that will glue fast.

Nato sem zmešala akrilno barvo. Odločila sem se za črno, pink in rahlo rjavo, ki pa je na koncu izpadla kot temno marelična barva.:)

Then I painted everything with acrylic paint. I decided for black, pink and light brown that turn out not the way I wanted :)

Na črni klobuček sem okoli nalepila mini perlice, dodala 3 večje perle in pikapolonico, ki mi je ležala na mizi in se mi je zdela idealna za tale klobuček.

On the black hat I added some pearls around the hat, three bigger pearls and a cute ladybird, that I had on my table and I thought it was perfect for  this hat.

Okoli pink klobučka sem dodala črne polperle, nekaj večjih perlic in eno veliko črno perlo ter dve majhni beli rožici.

Around the pink hat I added some half pearls, and some bigger pearls and one big black pearl and two little flowers.

Ker mi barva zadnjega klobučka ni bila všeč,sem se odločila, da ga oblepim s prtičkom lepih svetlih barv in metuljčkov. Dodala sem nekaj velikih perlic ter pestiče (hvala Ne-ja ;)) Se opravičujem za sliko, nisem opazila, da se je fotoaparat tako zaljubil v metuljčka, da se mu je pogled povsem zamegli.

Because I didn't like the color from the last hat, I decided to glue a napkin on it. I added some pearls and stamens. Sorry for the bad photo, I didn't know that my camera fall in love with the buterfly, that it completely blurs its view.

Tako pa izgledajo vsi klobuki skupaj. Kar ne morem se odločiti kateri mi je najljubši, vse kar si želim, je narediti dve luknjici v klobuček dodati elastiko in jih nositi kot dodatek. Upam, pa da mi vi poveste katere je vaš najljubši.

So this is how all the hats  looks together. I can not decide which I like the most, all I want is to make two holes in the  hat, add a rubber band and wear them as a supplement. I hope, however, that you can tell me, which is your favorite.

DIY Tag

Prikazala bom enostaven način, kako si lahko s stvarmi, ki bi jih vrgli v smeti, naredimo lastne tage.

I will show you how you can make your own tags using things that you would normally throw away. 

1) Tage bomo naredili iz starih škatel. Prvo treba škatlo odpreti, tako da jo razrežemo in obdržimo vse, iz česar lahko naredimo tage, tagi so lahko različnih velikosti in oblik.

We will do the tags from old cardboard boxes. First we must open the box so that you cut and retain all the pieces of which you can make tags, the tags can be diffrent shapes and sizes.

2) Nato na škatlo narišemo pravokotnik poljubnih velikosti. Jaz sem se odločila za 10,5 cm x 5 cm.

Then we draw a rectangle in any size you want your tag to be. Mine was 10,5 cm x 5cm.

3) Da sem dobila obliko taga, sem si na tegu prvo poiskala sredino, nato sam si označila cm v vsako stran, nato pa se od navpičnih stranic 1cm, in dobljena trikotnika sem samo odrezala.

To get the tag shape, I search for the middle on the tag and I marked 1cm in each side. Then I marked from vertical sides 1cm and then I just cut the  triangle.

4) Tagi so lahko tudi drugačnih oblik. Za to obliko, sem prvo narisala pol krog, oz sem poiskala okroglo škatlico želene velikosti, in nato sem samo potegnila s svinčnikom strani.

Tags can also be different shapes. For this design, I first drew a half circle, with a round shape box and then I just draw lines with pencils.

5) Za lepljenje papirja sem uporabila lepilo v stiku.

To glue the paper I used a Glue Stick.

6) Nato sem poiskala vse ostanke, papirja, ki jih  tako veselo zbiram in kopičim.

Then I searched for all the scraps of paper that I'm hoarding.

7) Tako izgleda največji tag, ki sem ga naredila, dodala sem ostanke papirja in nato še dekorativni lepilni trak. Robove pa sem obarvala s črno blazinico za štampiljke.

So this is how the biggest tag looks like, I added the scraps of paper and some decorative tape and I distressed the edges with a black color.

Tagi/Tags

Pred kratkim sem rezala scrapbook papirje in ker res težko vržem kakršenkoli  košček v smeti sem se odločila, da bom tudi te ozke špagete papirjev uporabila za nekaj, in mi jih tako ne bo treba odnesti v koš za recikliranje papirja.

Not to long ago I cut some scrapbook paper and because it is really hard for me to throw any bits and scraps in the recycling trash I decided  that although the scraps are very narrow spaghetti scraps I will use them for something.

Tako sem iz risalnega papirja izrezala tag in nanj nanizala obojestranski lepilni trak in začela nizati papirčke nanj. Papirčke sem nizala naključno, ko sem ves tag  prekrila s papirji sem odvečne dele odrezala.

From cartridge paper I cut out a tag and I added the double sided tape. Then I started to add paper. I added paper very randomly and when I was finished with adding the paper I cut of the rest of the paper.

Papirčkov je bilo veliko, toliko, da sem prekrila tri tage velikosti 4cm x 8cm in en manjši tag velikosti 1,8cm x 4,5 cm. Tagi so mi zelo všeč saj se na njih veliko "dogaja".

I had enough scraps to make three tags that measured 4cm x 8cm and one small tag 1,8 cm x 4,5 cm. I like the tags very much because they are very vibrant.

Na koncu sem v smeti vrgla zelo malo ostankov scrapbook papirja, kar me je zelo razveselilo. In tage bom lahko uporabila za projekt katerega pravkar delam. Če vas zanima od kje so prišli ostanki papirja in kaj bom naredila s tagi, pa kar veselo pokukajte v kratkem na moj blog.

I was very happy because I threw in the trash very little amount of scrapbook scraps. And the tags I can use for the project I am doing right now. If you are curies from where did the scraps come and what am I going to do with the tags, come visit my blog again and you will know.

Recikliranje/Recycling

Velikokrat lahko tudi s stvarmi, ki bi jih zavrgli naredimo ustvarjalne izdelke, in prav takšen izdelek vam bom pokazala danes.

Many times you can make art with the things you would normally throw away, and it is precisely such a product I'll show you today.

1) Odločila sem se da bom uporabila škatlo in jo reciklirala. Prvo sem morala škatlo razpret in odrezat vse kar nisem potrebovala./ I decided I will use a box. First I cut of at the things I didn't need.

2) Dno sem razpolovila na pol, tako da je moje reciklirano platno veliko 17cm x 11,5 cm. Prvo sem platno premazala z Gessotom / I cut the bottom in half, so that my recycled canvas measured 17cm x 11,5 cm. First I primed the canvas with gesso.

3) Odločila sem se da bom za ozadje uporabila svetlejšo barvo, saj nisem želela da izstopa. Tako sem se odločila za rumeno barvo. / I've decided that I'm going to use a lighter background color because I did not want to stand out. So I decided I'm going to use yellow color.





3) Nato sem uporabila nekaj šablon, ki sem jih naredila sama. Nekaj jih je narejenih iz škatel ostale pa z lepilno pištolo. / Than I used some homemade stencils, some are made from boxes and the others are made with a glue gun.  

4) Dodala sem ptička. / I added a bird. 

5) Zanimivo misel. / Some interesting quote.
 











 6) In tako je zanimiva stenska dekoracija končana./ And so is the wall decoretion finished.
