Did you see my mojo? Anyone??

Well I guess we all know what the hell am I talking about but just to be on the same page, let’s see what wiki.answers.com has to say about it. :)

"Mojo means "finding the magic in what we do". To have "lost your mojo", refers to a loss of inspiration or creative genius; a loss of that special spark. The word has been around for almost 100 years, one source cites its use to as early as 1926.

I so lost my magic and I can find it anywhere! I feel so bad about it and I thought I would only last for couple of weeks but now it’s just taking soooo long and I still miss old me.

And if you are still wondering “What the hell is she talking about???” CRAFTS! Not that long ago I made a card almost every day, since I was in lot of Design Teams. But after a while I needed some time to fully commit to my Jewelry. And here I am – few months later, committed to my Jewelry and no sign of committing to anything else – especially not to paper craft things. Oh no. There is no sign of that – at all. No matter how much I try – there are just no results at all.

So few days back I was looking to my old blog post and I found some beautiful things that I made. And I just have to show it again, since I have nothing new to brag about. :D But I will do my best to get my mojo working as soon as possible. And if you have any idea at all what should I do about it – LET ME KNOW!!! I am as desperate as I can be. I am officially a desperate housewife – well with no husband – just a boyfriend, no kids – just my sweetie pie Luna, no house – well I have my parents house and I don’t cook that well. Could I still call myself a housewife??? :))) I guess not, ha? But we won’t go there … not today. I feel enough bad about myself. ;)

So here they are: CLICK on the IMAGE or on the TITLE to see the WHOLE POST about it:

And if you would like to see some more paper craft things just take a moment and look back to my older posts. There is sooo many things to see. ;)

Best wishes,

Whiff of Joy #98 - Paper piecing

Whiff of Joy ima tokrat za vas super izziv, na katerem morate sodelovati! :)) Gre za tehniko "Paper piecing" ali v dobesednem prevodu "papirni kosi." Kaj pa to dejasnko pomeni? To pomeno, da morate en del odtisa izrezati iz kakšnega scrapbook papirja in ga prilepiti na "original" odtis. Torej gre za nekakšno kombinacijo kolaža in barvanja odtisa. Če se po tej razlagi ne znajdete najbolj, mi lahko pustite svoje vprašanje v komentarjih ali pa mi pišete na manuelina.ustvarjanja@gmail.com in pomagala vam bom. :)

Hi there! It's been exactly 14 days since we show you our last Whiff of Joy Challenge. So it's time for another one and this week we would like to see some Paper piecing on your creations. This is always a fun thing to do, right? :) So be sure to check out amazing DT cards and join us at our challenge.

This time I didn't do a card, but a Post-it notes holder. :) In there I put 2 Post-it notes and it's useful, since you can easily glue new one in, once you are out of this one. ;)  And you can see that I went a bit crazy with all that tearing apart, can't you? :) What can I say? I love it, so I did it and I like the final result too. It looks so messy. :))) And I just had to do another “dictionary flowers!” That old dictionary has a loooottt of pages so I thing these are not my last ones. :)))

Tokrat nisem naredila čestitke, ampak "ovitek" za 2 Post-it blokca. To vedno pride prav, mar ne? :)

Moj "papirni kos" so pravzaprav hlače. Namenoma so nevpadljive, ker sem želela da postanejo del celote in ne da izstopajo s svojo celoto.

Can you see my "Paper piecing?" Look at her legs. ;)

Challenges:

♥ A spoonfull of Sugar - Anything but a card

♥ Everybody Art Challenge - 3 papaers, 3 flowers, (1 ribbon - it's optional)

♥ Our Creative Corner - Cut it out

♥ Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Spring Flowers everywhere

♥ Stamps & Fun - Anything goes

Ne pozabite torej sodelovati na Whiff of Joy izzivu! :)) Slovenske izdelke je vedno lepo videti med vsemi ostalimi sodelujočimi. ;)

Oh I just need to show you one photo… :)

This is my cutie-pie walking herself. :))) She loves to carry around her Flexi leash! And when she drops it on the floor she just keeps walking and dragging it behind her. :)) She is such a funny little thing!

CRAFT-alnica #20 ~ Simboli sreče

Tokratno temo na CRAFT-alnici je izbrala Simona, odločila pa se je da se malce poigramo z različnimi simboli sreče (saj veste – prašički, pikapolonice, deteljice, slončki, …). Sama sem se odločila kar za pikapolonico in jo nalepila na lep pikčast papir. :) Vse skupaj pa potem na blokec, ki bo zagotovo prišel prav, ker blokci vedno pridejo prav. ;)

 

Hi there! Thank you for stopping by today. We are having another great challenge over at CRAFT-alnica ~ Symbols of luck (or lucky symbols) – like Ladybug, Pig, Elephant,…. It’s such a sweet challenge don’t you think so? :) So here it’s my little notebook with polka dot paper and this cute Ladybug. 

Have a nice day and “see” you soon!

Lepo se imejte do prihodnjič in ne pozabite pokukati na CRAFT-alnico (ter seveda sodelovati na izzivu), pokukajte pa tudi k  Simoni in Lili, ker sta njuna izdelka izredno lepa in zanimiva. :) 

Rojstni dan ~ CRAFT-alnica / Happy birthday

Se vam je že kdaj zgodilo, da ste izbrisali (ja tudi iz koša izbrisali) kakšno fotografijo, dokument ali kaj podobnega?? In šele potem, ko je že prepozno ugotovili, da je preprosto ni več?! In da kljub petim različnim programom za povračilo izbrisanih datotek ni uspeha, kajti računalnik je bil med tem že na novo formatiran?! No če se vam še ni – Bodite srečni!! Meni se namreč je in občutki so precej mešani – od začetnega šoka, do nejevere, jeze pa do končnega razočaranja, ker druge priložnosti za fotografiranje izdelka več ni…je namreč že neznano kje, razveselil neznano bitje za njen rojstni dan. In tako sem bila prisiljena ubrati drugo pot in namesto moje prvotno mišljene rojstnodnevne čestitke, vam danes pokažam veseli rojstnodnevni blokec s Post-it listi. Kot ste najbrž že sami lahko razbrali je prav to tema tokratnega izziva – Rojstni dan. ;)

Hi there! It was quite a stressful day, since I was searching a whole day just to find one picture on my computer. I had a card, made for this great challenge over at CRAFT-alnica (first and only Slovenian blog challenge:) and then someone delete it from my computer and I wasn’t able to get it back. I tried few different programs (to get your deleted files back) and still nothing. So instead of that card I am showing you this nice red Post-it notebook or something like that.

Hope your day was a bit less hectic and that you are enjoying well this days.

Cold (since it’s freezing outside) and loving hugs!

Lepo se imejte do prihodnjič in ne pozabite pokukati na CRAFT-alnico, ter izdelati svojo Rojstnodnevno stvaritev, pa še pri Simoni in Lili se ustavite, ker sta izdelali čudovite izdelke!

Ne tradicionalno + rdeče / Non traditional + red

To sta dve temi, ki ju morate upoštevati če želite sodelovati na tokratnem izzivu Whiff of Joy – ne tradicionalne božične barve (na božični čestitki, seveda) in pa pri CRAFT-alnici – rdeča barva. Torej tokrat žal obeh izzivov ne boste uspeli združiti skupaj, ker preprosto ne gre. ;)

This week we have two color themes at both challenges – Whiff of Joy ~ Non traditional Christmas color and CRAFT-alnica ~ Red color. So here is what I’ve made:

Have a nice day!

Ne spreglejte tudi izdelkov na CRAFT-alnici, ter seveda blogov ostalih članic ustvarjalnega tima – Lili in Simone.

Lepo se imejte do prihodnjič!

POMAGAJTE!

Prosim pomagajte vsem nam, ki se trudimo z dobrodelno dražbo pričarati nasmeh čim več otroških obrazov. Vsak € je pomemben in le s skupnimi močmi bomo lahko kupili rokavičke, šale, kapice in male drobnarije za naše najmlajše, ki so pomoči potrebni.

Verjamem, da je velika večina že zasledila Slovenski svet ustvarjalnosti, ki ima svojo stran na Facebook-u. Tam poteka dražba raznoraznih stvari, ki jih lahko kupite že za nekaj €. Sama sem zaenkrat prispevala 3 kompletke – Blokec + uhančki. Izklicna cena za en kompletek je 4€! Ne pozabite da dobite oboje – in BLOKEC IN UHANČKE! Povrh vsega pa gre VES DENAR v DOBRODELNE NAMENE! Darila, ki se bodo financirala iz sredstev dražbe gredo v varne hiše po vsej Sloveniji, kar ni mala stvar in je hkrati velik finančni zalogaj!

Blokec št. 1: Vijoličen dinozaverček in uhančki

  Blokec št. 2: Mala muca in uhančki

Blokec št. 3: Sovica in uhančki

Vsak blokec vsebuje črtaste liste, velikosti 15x11 cm.

Tudi tisti, ki nimate ustvarjenega profila na Facebook-u ne uporabljajte tega za izgovor za nesodelovanje na dobrodelni dražbi. :) Zagotovo poznate koga (otroci, bratje, sestre, tete, strici, soseda, učiteljica, župnik :))), ki imajo profil in lahko konec koncev napišejo znesek v vašem imenu. Vse se da – samo malo dobre volje je potrebno! :))

Sedaj pa hitro na  Slovenski svet ustvarjalnosti in oddajte svoj “glas!” Kot rečeno – veseli bomo vsakega €!

Če potrebujete kakršnokoli pomoč/nasvet/namig v zvezi z dražbo mi pišite na manuelina.ustvarjanja@gmail.com.
