April Showers bring May Flowers

Pozdravljene "frendice"...ali lahko verjamete, da je že maj...čas tako hitro beži....
...danes bi vam rada pokazala izdelek narejen za naš novi izziv pri Our Creative Corner...Shari je gostiteljica ta mesec in izbrala je....

Aprilski dež prinese majske cvetice

Shari želi videti izdelek, ki na kakršen koli način odraža spomladanski dež in/ali spomladanske cvetlice.....(za celoten prevod, prosim uporabi Google prevajalnik na desni strani bloga)....

Ker sem tako in tako nameravala narediti darilo za gospo, ki ima rada rožice, sem združila prijetno s koristnim in naredila male magnete....rožice v svetlih, pomladanskih barvah in kapljice dežja...zdi se, da barve rožic oživijo v vsaki kapljici jutranjega dežja....

Hello friends…can you believe it`s already May….gosh, how fast time passes by…
...today I would like  to share project made for our new challenge at Our Creative Corner…this month host is Shari and  she chose the theme….

April Showers bringMay Flowers

...Or so the proverb goes.  Spring comes late in my neck of the world, in the mountains of Northern Idaho.  In the month of May (with Summer just weeks away), our Spring flowers are still, usually, under a thin blanket of snow, until those Spring rains wash it all away.

This month, the challenge is to create something, a mixed-media project, a journal page, a scrapbook page, a card or tag...Anything, that reflects the Spring rains and/or Spring flowers in your part of the world.

Now, I'm not going to nit-pic your choices of Spring flowers, as the growing season here where I live is short and our Spring flowers don't last very long before the blooms of Summer start budding.  So, if you throw in flowers of Summer into your creation, that's OK, too.

 I had to make gift for a lady who love flowers very much, so I decided to combine fun with useful…I made little magnets with flowers, which blooms in bright, spring colours…there you can also notice few drops of early morning rain.…the colours of the flowers seem to come alive in every drop….

Najprej sem zlepila skupaj dva lesena kotnika (ostanki slikarskih platen), da sem dobila malo hiško. Hiško sem pobarvala s črno akrilno barvo in nato še z belo. Robove sem pobrusila, da sem dobila starinski, obrabljen izgled. Na zadnjo stran sem prilepila magnete, prednjo stran pa okrasila s papirnimi rožicami, bleščicami in raznimi kovinskimi dodatki......

---------------------------------------------------------------

I started with gluing together two pieces of canvas corners, so I got a little house...I coloured it, first with black acrylic paint and then with white...edges are sanded , so I reached old, distressed look. I added strong magnets on the back...front is embellished with paper flowers, glitters, metal gears and tags...

Papirne rožice pokapane s črno tinto, žica in razni kovinski dodatki....

------------------------------------------------

Paper flowers sprinkled with black ink, wire and metal bits and pieces…

Plastične bleščice v ujemajoči se barvi...v moji domišljiji so to kapljice jutranjega dežja.....

---------------------------------------------------------

Plastic glitters in matching colour... in my imagination those are drops of early morning rain …

Kovinski "tag" je narejen iz pločevinke piva, poštempljan in pobarvan.....

------------------------------------------------

Metal tag is made of beer can, stamped and coloured…
