Per i due progetti che vedrete tra poco, in particolare il sacchetto, ho deciso di usare vari toni del marrone.
I decided to use some shades of brown for these two projects, in particular for the bag.
Mi piacciono molto le etichette e in generale le cose in miniatura, perciò l'altro giorno mi è venuta un'idea per una nuova tag piuttosto ricca di elementi.
Qualche giorno prima mi erano arrivati due pacchetti dagli Stati Uniti e in uno di questi c'erano, tra le altre cose, uno stencil per riprodurre i mattoni di un muro, e una fustella per tagliare un manichino.
Non sono un'esperta di mixed art, anzi, non ne so proprio niente, ma negli ultimi tempi sto osservando con attenzione le creazioni che trovo in giro in vari blog per imparare nuove tecniche e formarmi uno stile personale. Ho preso in due negozi alcuni barattolini di paste di vari tipi e colori, una spatolina e altri stencil; uno di questi l'ho utilizzato per scrivere il numero 25 sull'album per le nozze d'argento (25th wedding anniversary) che ho creato alcuni giorni fa.
Alla fine ne è nata questa tag. Inizialmente avevo pensato a un progetto abbastanza complesso, ma poi ho preferito restare su dimensioni ridotte per il mio primo esperimento. Nei prossimi giorni magari mi dedicherò all'altro progetto e, se ne sarò soddisfatta, lo pubblicherò.
Per questa tag ho scelto un cartoncino più o meno dello stesso colore della pasta ruvida, color rame. Ho creato l'effetto mattoni, poi ho tagliato, vestito e "ingioiellato" il manichino. A proposito della gonnellina del manichino, quello che vedete è un pezzetto di una manica di un maglioncino leggero per la mezza stagione (che, come si sa non esiste più, ah ah...). Le maniche erano troppo lunghe e avevano un leggero elastico che non mi piaceva. Così l'ho fatto modificare dalla sarta e, come sempre, ho conservato le due parti che lei aveva tagliato via.
Alla fiera degli hobby creativi di marzo avevo preso, tra le altre cose, dei piccoli rocchetti di legno, così uno mi è finalmente tornato utile in questa creazione.
I used the bingo mix 'lace, pearls and diecut' for Bunny Zoe's challenge.
Questa tag la abbino a un sacchetto kraft che ho decorato con della juta, dei fiori marroni e dei bottoni di legno.
I decorated this kraft bag with a piece of burlap, some brown die-cut flowers with wooden buttons and a sentiment.
