Beccy's Challenge - Day 6 - Letter F
Fabric on a card

The Day 6 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 6 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.


For this card I used a piece of a fabric adhesive film, with a beautiful
pattern, on a cardboard, stock size. 
After the bonding of the fabric, I colored as you can see, using textile
acrylics and some glitter.
I discovered that my brushes are not very good to paint on fabric, even
they are thin, or I do not know the trics for such an operation...

Pe un carton alb am lipit un film textil autoadeziv,
cu un model foarte frumos. Dupa aceea am colorat
cu acrilice de textile si am mai pus niste sclipici.



The image is brighter in reality...

Beccy's Challenge - Day 5 - Letter E
An embossed star

The Day 5 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 5 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.


The base of the project is a white cardboard stock size, painted in a light
yellow neon. On the edges is a tape with small stars.
As central piece  is a red star from a transparent paper with a patern from
little snowflakes. I embossed the edges of the star and the center.
The dots, the trees and the bird are punched. The other  corner elements
are stickers. In addition, I added shiny watercolors.

Pe un carton alb colorat in galben deschis neon, am pus pe
laterale banda adeziva cu model. Steaua centrala este din
hartie transparenta cu model, embosata pe margini si central.
Cercurile, bradutii si pasarea sunt perforati. In celelalte colturi
sunt stickere, iar culorile adaugate sunt acuarele stralucitoare. 



This is my project for letter E!

Beccy's Challenge - Day 4 - Letter D
Happy Trees with dots!

The Day 4 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 4 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.



This project is based on the same technique used at letter B, bargello,
with different types of strips, including ones with mirror effect and shiny pattern.
The strips have different widths, but 2 cm is maximum.
Even if the strips are apparently random, they creat some triangle spaces.
There are a few areas with small circles. I am not sure if I can  interpret these
as doodling... Two triangles are filled with pieces with mirror effect:
on the left border and on the right top corner. Here it looks black but it
has a gold look.
The other triangles are filled with dots from acrylic colors, as symbolic trees.
On the top is a sticker - snowflake.

Acest proiect este realizat prin tehnica de la litera B, bargello,
utilizand mai multe fasii de hartie, inclusiv unele cu efect de oglinda si
cu model stralucitor. Benzile diferite ca latime, dar nu mai mult de 2 cm.
le-am lipit astfel incat sa formeze zone triunghiulare. Mai sunt niste
portiuni acoperite cu cerculete, un fel de doodling. Triunghiurile
sunt acoperite de puncte de culoare, formand braduti simbolici.
In partea superioara este lipit un fulg de zapada'.



The image is abstract and complicated, but it was funny to work it. 😊

Beccy's Challenge - Day 3 - Letter C
Christmas Tree between circles

The Day 3 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 3 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.


This is a simple card. I passed the cardboard through an embossing tool,
creating a pattern with circles. I painted the background with a light yellow
neon. The Christmas tree was obtained by heat embossing, using a stamp.
In three corners are heat embossing dots.
The used colors are: watercolors and gel markers.
The snowflakes are stickers.

Felicitarea este realizata pe un carton trecut printr-o unealta
de embosare cu cercuri. Fundalul este pictat galben pal neon,
celelalte culori provin din acuarele si markere cu gel.
Am adaugat si trei fulgi stickere.

This is a simple story for letter C.

Beccy's Challenge - Day 2 - Letter B
A special bauble

The Day 2 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 2 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.


I discovered in the 'inspiration' list for the letter 'B', an unknown technique: 'Bargello'.
I had a few samples of colored papers previous created, I cut them in strips and bonded
them on a normal paper. Even I wanted something else, I changed my mind and
using a circle, I made a bauble. The strips where too wide for this subject, but at least
you can see three, inside the circle.
Left and bottom the cardboard are two strips from the same page.
Above the bauble is a very symbolic fir tree branch. 😊
On the white backround is a light shade of gold acrylic. The ribbon is also
painted.  I added three stickers and some drops of shiny glitter.
It's not the perfect image for this technique, but I like that can be used
remaining strips, from different projects.


Cu ocazia temei 'B', am descoperit existenta unei noi
tehnici: bargello. Pentru ea am folosit niste teste pe care
le-am taiat fasii, lipit pe hartie si apoi am decupat cercul
ce va deveni glob. Pe doua laturi sunt fasii din aceeasi
pagina. Am pictat simbolic o crenguta de brad, am lipit
cateva stickere si am adaugat cateva puncte de sclipici.



This is my project for letter 'B'.

Beccy's Challenge - Day 1 - Letter A
A start with an abstract

The Day 1 for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 1 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.


For the first card in this new challenge, I chose again an abstract concept
with an angel inside.
The colors  are sprayed through a small tool created from a paper roll.
with six circles getting smaller and smaller, bonded in a bottom location.
After that, in the corners I added acrylics, five punched snowflakes, an angel,
and some pieces from a shiny gold paper.

Pentru prima felicitare am ales tot un concept abstract.
Culorile sunt pulverizate printr-o mica unealta creata din
rola de hartie, avand sase cercuri din ce in ce mai mici, lipite
in aceeasi pozitie. Apoi am mai colorat cu acrilice prin colturi
si am lipit elemente perforate: fulgi si un ingeras si in
plus cateva bucatele stralucitoare din hartie. 



Have a fine and inspired November Challenge!

Provocari Verzi (42) -
Reflexii in oglinda (169)
Tablou cu piatra

Lucrarea participa la provocarea de pe site-ul lui Rux:
Provocari Verzi - Salvam papusi III -22 Ora de pictura: piatra animata.
Si la  Jocul Reflexiilor gazduit de Carmen, care l-a preluat de la Sorin.



In colectia mea de pietre aveam ceva special. O piatra pe care exista o formatiune
incolacita, ce recunosc ca nu stiu ce e si cum s-a format.
Are 7 cm dimensiunea orizontala maxima.
Aveam o rama mai adanca  si mi-am propus sa o folosesc.
Piatra am incastrat-o in spuma, cum am mai facut cu alte prilejuri.



Am vopsit cu acrilic verde metalizat partea de jos, inclusiv pe piatra.
Partea superioara este un albastru deschis. Am dat si pe piatra, generand un fel
de luciu, insa nu se mai vede.
Am facut asa pentru ca am vazut un fel de caine format de serpuiri. Ba chiar
am accentuat cu negru cateva elemente.
Am pus spuma in rama si mi-am rugat mesagera sa participe la sedinta foto.
Din fericire nu s-a speriat de creatura din spatele sticlei.

Completez reflexiile cu niste imagini:

Un loc inedit pentru perechea de bascheti...


O luna noiembrie pe placul vostru!
