December Challenge on Beccy's site - AFEC - Ziua 23 - A shiny space for a tree Un spatiu stralucitor pentru bradut

This project is my entry for the next challenges:

'December Challenge' on Beccy's place;

Adventul Fotografic al Exploratorului Creativ (AFEC) gazduit de Niko.
Exista o galerie de imagini si o galerie de ornamente, unde putem introduce creatiile noastre.

I did this card for two projects. The tree is Beccy's creation, from a Christmas tree set.
The shiny background and the sentiment were offered in the Niko's game.
Felicitarea am facut-o pe cartonul stralucitor oferit de Niko, utilizand un bradut
din setul de Craciun al lui Beccy. Textul a fost tot din ziua 23.

The image was printed, shaped and bonded on the shiny background.
For coloring I used watercolors, acrylics (for external dots), shiny markers
and liners for globes.

Imaginea este tiparita, decupata si lipita pe
fundalul stralucitor. pentru a o colora am folosit
acuarele, acrilice (pentru punctele exterioare),
markere stralucitoare si un liner pentru globuri.

The next images are for the AFEC game:

AFEC - Ziua 22     Multumesc pentru joc, Niko!

Beccy's Challenge - Day 30   Thank you for the game, Beccy!

Update:
The whole journey for the challenges of 2024, on Beccy's site!

AFEC - Ziua 9 Felicitare de Craciun

Niko este din nou gazda jocului din decembrie:
Adventul Fotografic al Exploratorului Creativ (AFEC).
Exista o galerie de imagini si o galerie de ornamente, unde
putem introduce creatiile noastre.

Am facut poza zilei, dupa ce incepusem sa colorez!

Trebuie sa marturisesc ca felicitarea este pe un alt fundal. Aceeasi culoare, insa
am folosit un carton un pic mai gros.
Felicitarea este simpla. Doua laturi sunt acoperite cu benzi realizate in stil bargello,
din perioada felicitarilor lunii noiembrie.  Am adaugat trei stickere si o geometrie
circulara pe care am lipit fir sclipicios. Scrisul si stelutele sunt facute cu marker alb.



AFEC - Ziua 8

Beccy's Challenge - Day 28 - Letter Y A lot of shiny yellow

The Day 28  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
 Ziua 28 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

For this project I created an yellow page with adhesive tapes, different types,
again for the bargello technique. I used it for a frame on a white cardboard.
Inside, all the pieces are from a wrapping paper.
Supplementary, the background is painted with yellow watercolor and I added
stickers and some glitter drops.
With a glitter pen I did small circles in some areas.

Pentru acest proiect am creat o pagină galbenă cu benzi adezive,
diferite tipuri, din nou pentru tehnica bargello. Am folosit-o pentru o
rama pe un carton alb. În interior, toate piesele sunt dintr-o hârtie
de împachetat. Suplimentar, fundalul este pictat cu acuarelă
galbenă și am adăugat autocolante și câteva picături de sclipici.
Cu un pix stralucitor am făcut cercuri mici în unele zone.

Day 27 - X

Beccy's Challenge - Day 27 - Letter X Reflexii in oglinda (171) A shiny frame around a dendrite

This project enter in the next games:

-The Day 27  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
 Ziua 27 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.
- Carmen a redeschis  Jocul Reflexiilor, preluandu-l de la Sorin.

I used another sample in the dendritic style, with three colors, but this time it
was the second cardboard over the colors, meaning that there are smaller
white spaces and the colors are not formed very high. The dendritic forms
are more delicate.
Around the colored space there is a frame created with X Tras adhesive foil.
The little squares are the remaining pieces after I cut the strips.
In addition, I added some stickers.

I'm glad I started to use the samples. There are so random, that is difficult to
decide how to go on with them...

The next images are for the reflexion game.
Urmatoarele imagini sunt pentru jocul reflexiilor.

Day 26 - W

Reflexii (170)

Beccy's Challenge - Day 26 - Letter W A huge white snowflake

The Day 26  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 26 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

The background  is white, even it looks... pale!
I was very upset because the huge white snowflake should have been with
small cutouts. But I still can not use correctly a small cutting machine.
So I did it incomplete. The areas are only marked and I colored them.
On the laterals is a holographic tape.
'Merry Christmas' is a sticker. My writing is far away to be good. 😊
The small trees are punched in a shiny adhesive material.
I added small shiny dots on the background.

Pe un carton alb am lipit un fulg facut incomplet cu o masinuta,
pe care inca nu o stapanesc. De aceea in loc de decupari, au fost
doar amprente. Acolo sunt culorile. Pe laterale este o banda
adeziva holografica. Scrisul este un sticker. Iar bradutii sunt
perforati intr-un material autoadeziv. In fundal este si putin sclipici.

Day 25 - V

Beccy's Challenge - Day 25 - Letter V A strange collage around the velvet

The Day 25  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 25 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

The base of this project is a cardboard with an winter pattern.
Around a pentagon shape, on double sided adhesive tape, I put
velvet powder, different colors. Also, there is one area with glitter
poured on the tape. For creating the collage I added:
punched geometries, pieces cut from a pattern transparent paper
with baubles and those spirals and the two gold trees, from a
wrapping paper.
 

Proiectul  este realizat pe un carton cu model de iarna.
In jurul unui pentagon, am utilizat banda dublu adeziva
pe care am turnat 'catifea' pudra mai multe culori si pe
o parte am turnat sclipici. Restul elemetelor sunt o parte
perforate, taiate dintr-o pagina transparenta cu model, iar
bradutii aurii apartin unei hartii de impachetat.

I am curious if you know another way of using this powder.
Thank you for other tips!

Day 24 - U

Beccy's Challenge - Day 24 - Letter U My Unicorn

The Day 24  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 24 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

For this letter I used again a unicorn. The image is from a coloring book.
I printed the image and bonded on a white cardboard. I created again a pattern
in bargello style, in blue, using it for a frame around  the unicorn.
Top and bottom is shiny watercolor. On the image I used glitter pens, crayons
and foam snow. Some glitter is also around the image.

Imaginea cu unicornul provine dintr-o carte de
colorat. Am tiparit-o si lipit-o pe carton alb.
Am creat o rama in nuante de albastru, stil
bargello, sus si jos este acuarela, iar pe imagine
am folosit, pixuri stralucitoare si zapada spuma.
De jur imprejur am mai pus niste sclipici.

Day 23 - B&W+1

Beccy's Challenge - Day 22 - Letter T Triangles with trees

The Day 22  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 22 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

I was not sure about the final look.  In the first one I have the impression that the
time has stopped. In the second one it passes.😊
It's a simple project: On a white carboard there are bonded two triangles with
a Christmas pattern, a gear element and a holographic tape on two laterals.
For coloring I used  watercolors in the center, a gold marker near the triangles,
shiny pens for lines and some glitter.

Este un proiect simplu: pe un carton alb am lipit doua triunghiuri
dintr-o pagina cu model tematic, o roata dintata si o banda
adeziva holografica. Pentru colorare am folosit acuarele,
marker auriu, pixuri stralucitoare si sclipici.

Day21 - S

Beccy's Challenge - Day 21 - Letter S A napkin with snowflakes

The Day 21  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 21 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

This time I use a napkin with many snowflakes and I tried to use the ideas
from the tutorial presented at day 16.
It was much better in relation with the 'wrinkles'. Not perfect, but I think
because of me. I should have been wait to dry before appling the second layer
of glue. But I did not wait enough.😊
Still, it looks nicer the experiment. In addition I added stickers with hearts
and baubles and some pink glitter.

Am folosit tutorialul din ziua 16 pentru a lipi un servetel
cu model de fulgi de zapada. A fost mai bine in ceea ce
priveste cutele. Putea fi si mai bine daca asteptam sa se
usuce inaintea celui de-al doilea strat de lipici. Am adaugat
stickere inima si globuri si niste sclipici.

Day 20 - R

Beccy's Challenge - Day 20 - Letter R A tree in red

The Day 20  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 20 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

On a white cardboard painted with a shiny pale red, are bonded:
a frame in the bargello style, a shaped tree from a pattern transparent paper,
stickers and a punched snowflake.
On the bottom is foam 'snow.  I added some glitter in the snow and as dots
on the background.
The transparent paper was sufficient thick. I wanted to embossed it as you
can see, but this was a mistake, because the edge bended, cauzing problems
when I bonded it. It was not the proper material for embossing.
Now I know!😊

Pe un carton alb pictat cu rosu deschis si stralucitor am lipit:
o rama in stilul bargello, un copac dintr-o pagina cu model,
transparenta, doua stickere si un fulg perforat. m adaugat
zapada spuma si niste sclipici in zapada si sub forma de puncte.
Am embosat pe langa copac, insa hartia fiind groasa, marginile
s-au indoit si am avut probleme la lipire.

This is my simple project in red.

Day 19 - Q

Beccy's Challenge - Day 19 - Letter Q A star in a quilt style

The Day 19  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 19 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

I like a lot the quilt projects with paper or on paper, even they are far away
from materials. So on a white cardboard, I drawn a star in the quilt style.
For coloring I used pencils and markers. Punched elements were added and
on top and bottom is a textile shiny material.

Pe un carton alb am desenat o stea pe care am colorat-o
in stil quilt. Am utilizat creioane si markere. In plus am
adaugat elemente obtinute cu perforator, plus doua fasii
din material textil autocolant, pe marginea de sus si de jos.

The negative is quite interesting!

Day 18 - P

Beccy's Challenge - Day 17 - Letter O Abstract around an octagon.

The Day 17  for the November Challenge on Beccy's place.
Ziua 17 a provocarii lunii Noiembrie, pe site-ul lui Beccy.

This time I used a red cardboard, stock size. The central element is a sticker
snowflake inside an octagon. On two laterals is a red holographic adhesive tape.
The patterns are transfered from some stencils. For coloring I used glittery pens,
markers (gold and white) and a shiny acrylic in different areas.

Pe un fundal rosu, am centrat un sticker fulg de zapada
in interiorul unui octogon. Desenele suplimentare provin din
sabloane. Pe doua laturi este o banda rosie holografica
autoadeziva. Culorile provin de la pixuri stralucitoare, markere:
alb si auriu si acrilic stralucitor in mai multe locuri.

This is my abstract card for letter 'O'.

Day 16 - N
