Scatolina-libro e Micro album Bambole giapponesi - Japanese dolls Book-box and Tiny album

Buongiorno a tutti,
oggi vi mostro un regalo che ho preparato per un'amica che ha una forte passione per l'opera e per il Giappone. In particolare, ha una bella collezione di kimono giapponesi e di recente un amico comune tornato da una vacanza a Tokyo gliene ha portato uno in regalo.
Io non sono mai stata in Giappone, ma trovo che il loro abito tradizionale, insieme al sari indiano, sia il più elegante al mondo. Ammiro la delicatezza e l'eleganza del design nipponico.
Per tutti questi motivi ho deciso di creare un piccolo dono a tema Giappone per questa mia amica.

Good morning, folks,
today I show you a gift I made for a friend of mine. She is deeply keen on opera and Japan. She has a beautiful collection of Japanese kimonos and a common friend who has recently come back from a holiday in Tokyo brought a kimono to her as a gift.
I have never been to Japan, but I think their traditional dress, along with Indian sari, is the most elegant all over the world. I admire the delicacy and elegance of Japanese design.
For all these reasons I have decided to craft a small Japan-themed gift for my friend.








Ho creato una scatola-libro e un micro album con immagini tradizionali giapponesi. L'unica carta colorata che ho usato è quella rossa della copertina della scatola. Tutte le altre le ho colorate e decorate io ed erano in origine semplice cartoncino bianco.
Per decorare la scatola e l'album ho usato timbri e fustelle. L'intarsio che vedete sulla copertina del libro l'ho creato con una bellissima fustella a cornice, che ho colorato con gli acquerelli oro.

I have created a book-box and a tiny album with traditional images of Japan. The only pre-coloured paper I have used is the red one of the cover. I have coloured and decorated all the others, that were originally white cardstock.
To decorate the box and the album I have used both dies and stamps. I made the inlay you see on the box with a great frame die and I coloured the die cut with golden watercolour.









Ho creato l'effetto nuvole con uno stencil creato da me con delle fustelle per bordi. Poi ho fustellato il ramo e i fiori da cartoncini colorati con i Distress.
A destra vedete una cornice di fiorellini che ho timbrato e colorato con i pennarelli acquerellabili.

I made the cloud-effect with a stencil I myself made with a border die. I coloured a white cardstock with Distress inkpads and I die cut from them the branch and the flowers.
On the right you see a frame with small flowers I stamped and coloured with watercolour markers.





Dentro la scatola, ecco il micro album. Ho timbrato questi caratteri giapponesi sulla pagina che ho deciso di usare come copertina. Ho rilegato l'album con la Cynch.

Here's the tiny album inside the box. I stamped on the cover these Japanese characters. I bound the pages with the Cynch.





Ho nascosto il punto in cui ho incollato il nastro con la timbrata di un vaso che ho embossato e colorato con un pennarello rosso e gli acquerelli oro.

I hid the place where I glued the ribbon with this pot I stamped it and coloured it with a red marker and golden watercolour.




Alcuni di questi timbri li ho usati nelle scatoline e segnalibri giapponesi.

I used some of these stamps to make Japanese mini boxes and bookmarks.



Alla fine di questo post vedrete la fustella con cui ho creato questi mini ventagli.

At the end of this post you will see the die I used to make these tiny fans.



 Anche queste bamboline le ho create con una fustella.

I made these dolls too with a die.

















Ecco come ho fatto la cornice della scatola.

Here's how I made the frame of the box.






Questi sono i timbri che ho usato per il vaso e per i caratteri giapponesi.

These are the stamps I used for the pot and the Japanese characters.





Ecco la fustella con cui ho creato le bamboline. In Giappone realizzano delle piccole bambole, tradizionalmente di legno e senza braccia, che si chiamano kokeshi. Sono dei portafortuna e normalmente vengono regalate a persone speciali.

Here's the die I used to make the dolls. In Japan they make small dolls people name kokeshi. They are usually made from wood and they have not arms. They are lucky charms and people use to give them as a gift to a special person.




Per fare le nuvole ho creato uno stencil con le stesse fustelle per bordi che ho usato nel biglietto Unicorni.

To make the clouds I first made a stencil with the border dies I used for the Unicorn card.



Per il cielo giapponese ho usato una carta per acquerelli.

For the Japanese sky I used a watercolour paper.










Spero che questo lavoro vi sia piaciuto!

I hope you like this craft!
