While creating this tag I imagined a person sitting on a park bench and reading some old yellowed love letters. There are some leaves around the bench and along the paths. The wind makes other leaves fly away. Also the page of a newspaper flies away, maybe another reader in the park lost it.
Per prima cosa ho timbrato il testo della lettera manoscritta e ho tagliato questo cartoncino e quello di base della tag. Le lettere, la scrittura a mano e gli alfabeti sono una delle mie passioni, come potete vedere in molte vecchie creazioni. Poi ho invecchiato i bordi, ho incollato il nastrino di pizzo e i fiorellini.
First I stamped the handwritten letter and cut this cardstock and the tag. I am really fond of letters, handwriting and alphabets, as you can see in many of my old crafts. Then I distressed the edges, I glued the lace and the tiny flowers.
Ho tagliato un cuore lungo e vi ho avvolto attorno del filo di rame.
I punched a long heart and wrapped it with some copper wire.
Ho tagliato a mano la bustina e tagliato le farfalle. Queste ultime poi le ho ricoperte con della pasta che poi diventa trasparente e che lascia solo un velo glitterato. Ho tagliato a mano la bustina.
I handcut the envelope and punched the butterflies. I covered the butterflies with a paste that then turns transparent and glittered. I handcut the small envelope.
Ho tagliato a mano due piccolissime tag e le ho decorate usando uno stencil a fiori e della pasta color rame.
I handcut two tiny tags and decorated them with a mask and some copper paste.
Ho perforato delle foglioline, le ho invecchiate e ne ho tracciato le venature. Poi le ho incollate su un filo di rame. Ho ripreso la tecnica che avevo usato nella tag La vie en rose.
I punched some leaves, I distressed them and made the veins. Then I glued them on a copper wire. I used again the technique I used in La vie en rose tag.
Ho riciclato e invecchiato un pezzetto di giornale.
I recycled and distressed a small piece of newspaper.
Per questa tag su un amore perduto mi ha ispirata anche una bellissima canzone degli Abba, "SOS".
This tag reminding a lost love was also inspired to me by a song I love so much, 'SOS' by the great Abba.

RispondiEliminaCarole Robb Bisson
Thank you so much, Carole! You are always so kind! I like creating a story in my mind and then creating the scene with paper and colours. It is like looking at a place, looking at people walking in the street, and then stopping time, like in a movie, taking a photo or a quick portrait to remember forever the scene you have seen. Like stopping blowing wind in this case and looking at what people were doing in that moment...
EliminaHugs,
Mariangela ^___^
Great tag, I love how your tag has tags! Thank you for playing along with Crafty Boots Anniversary Challenge.
RispondiEliminaDionne
This is fantastic! I love the way the leaves look like they are blowing away. Do I see texture paste? Lovely. Thanks for joining us at Alphabet Challenges.
RispondiEliminaYes, Jennifer, it is texture paste. I love just this one because I love copper colour in general (paste, metal wire, etc.). Thank you for your comment!
EliminaMariangela
Very beautiful.
RispondiEliminaThanks for joining us at Alphabet Challenge Blog.
Mari
The tag is lovely. Thanks for showing how you created it!
RispondiEliminaThanks for playing along with us at Stampotique Designers Challenges!
¡Me ha enamorado esta etiqueta otoñal, Mariangela! Es preciosa y tan a tono con el tiempo que tenemos ahora por Madrid. El otoño me encanta, y tu etiqueta mucho más aún. ¡Buen trabajo!
RispondiEliminaUn beso fuerte
¡Gracias, Puri! Aquí no se entiende si estamos en otoño o todavía no, pero, bueno, no hemos tenido realmente el verano este año. Pero las hojas ya se caen no sólo en mi etiqueta, sino también en las calles y es muy lindo. Si te gusta el paisaje otoñal vuelve a verme porque en los próximos días voy a publicar otra creación de pleno (!!!) otoño.
EliminaBesos,
Mariangela
Ciao,e' proprio bella questa tag!Bravissima,mi piace molto ti auguro un buon fine settimana ciao.
RispondiEliminaGrazie, Malida! Nei prossimi giorni appena avrò un po' di tempo pubblicherò un'altra creazione moooolto autunnale...
EliminaBuona domenica anche a te!
Mariangela
A beautiful tag! Love how you put it together! Wow, it must take you a long time to add it to so many challenges..... Anyway, thanks so much for joining us at A Vintage Journey!
RispondiEliminaGorgeous tag with awesome details. Love the tutorials. Thank you for joining Artistic Inspirations, good luck.
RispondiEliminaPopping by to say thank you for joining us over at Scribble and Scrap! Good luck!
RispondiEliminaJill S&S DT
Ciao Mariangela, questa card e' la migliore che ho visto sul tuo blog fino ad ora! Bello che tu abbia aggiunto un tutorial con le spiegazioni passo passo. E che dire delle farfalline, del pizzo e del filo di ferro intorno al cuoricino? Non so dirti quale dettaglio mi piaccia di piu'..... ti sentivi romantica?
RispondiEliminaCiao, Alex,
Eliminagrazie mille per i tuoi complimenti! Sono molto incoraggianti!
Come dicevo più su a Carole, mi piace immaginare una scena e fermare l'istante, come una pellicola cinematografica. Immaginare cosa c'è nelle vite delle persone che restano bloccate lì, in quella scena, mentre camminano, mentre leggono, mentre parlano con qualcuno. Le foglie degli alberi, un foglio di giornale, un cappello volati via e sospesi in aria. Queste persone dove vanno, cosa leggono, con chi parlano e di cosa? Ecco, ho immaginato una scena di questo tipo. E anche in un'altra creazione che pubblicherò appena possibile e che è sempre in tema autunnale.
Io sotto la scorza dura (^___^) sono mooolto romantica, malinconica, autunnale, direi, anche se vivrei in una eterna estate, se potessi.
Un abbraccio!
Mariangela
This is really beautiful, I love how you imagined this working. I felt as if I was in the park on the bench myself!!! So pretty!
RispondiEliminaThank you so much for entering the Crafty Calendar Challenge this month, your card really depicts our theme of Leaves and Lace. Lots of luck.
Hugs to you Sue Pxxx DT
Favolosa e curatissima in tutti i suoi tanti piccoli dettagli! La tag riflette molto bene la storia immaginata ed è molto romantica. Mi piacciono tantissimo le foglioline con le venature e la distressatura (si dice così?) con gli strappi "alla Gabrielle Pollacco"! Complimenti, sei bravissima!
RispondiEliminaCiao, Alice,
Eliminagrazie mille! Sì, più su ho spiegato bene ad Alex cosa avevo immaginato. Comunque è stato molto divertente. Mi appassionano soprattutto le cose piccole, i dettagli minuscoli. Passerei ventiquattro ore al giorno a fare solo quello, senza stancarmi mai...
Ti mando un abbraccio!
Mariangela

Hello, Melanie,
Eliminathank you for your nice comment! I supposed that a paste to use with a stencil to make a relief could be considered embossing, but if you say so, it means they are different. Thank you for pointing out this, so I won't mix the two words in the future.
I will join again, of course! I love your challenges!
Hugs,
Mariangela

Hi our rules clearly state 15 maximum challenges to be entered. I have therefore deleted your entry!
RispondiEliminaDear Lin,
