Challenge, pagina #4

Azi dimineata, am facut, dintr-o suflare, pagina #4, dupa ce m-am gandit destule zile la tot felul de variante tehnice.  Aceasta pagina trebuia sa contina o litera. Eu am ales litera "V" care vine de la Valentina, numele mamei mele. Pagina aceasta este un omagiu pentru mama mea...

This morning, I did, in one breath, the page # 4, after the days before I thought all sorts of technical options. This page should contain a letter. I chose the letter "V" that comes from Valentina, my mother's name. This page is a tribute to my mother ...

Experimente cu heat tool

Mi-am cumparat de pe eBay o unealta pe care mi-o doream demult. Este un heat gun de putere 300W, adica un pistol cu aer cald, un fel de uscator dar cu fasciculul de caldura mai concentrat, mai putin divergent decat la un uscator de par. Cu acesta se pot face multe lucruri.

I bought on eBay a tool that I wanted a lot time ago. It's a 300W power heat gun, is a kind of dryer but more focused beam of heat, less divergent than a hair dryer. With it I can do many things.

Iata primele incercari...
Here are the first attempts...

Deformeaza, increteste, prin incalzire, un material plastic, in acest caz niste bucati de perdea sintetica. Materialul este destul de gros si necesita mai mult timp aceasta operatie.

Pe un material textil, ca baza, am asezat bucati din diferite materiale. Deasupra am pus o bucata de material sintetic si am facut niste cusaturi la masina de cusut. Apoi am alterat/deformat aceasta "constructie" cu heat gun-ul care topeste materialul sintetic....

Aceste piese de surface design vor intra in constructia unor obiecte textile si pot fi impodobite cu alte elemente prin diferite tehnici, etc...dar asta, altadata...
These surface design pieces will go into the construction of some textile items and can be embellished with other elements, etc ... but another time ...

Challenge - page #3

De data aceasta, Sara ne-a cerut sa asezam sub bucata de feutru  o hartie printata, apoi sa adaugam niste cuvinte "scrise" cu free motion.
Iata ce mi-a iesit mie...

This time, Sara asked us to put a printed page under the felted piece. Then add some words "written" with free motion.
Here's what came to me ...

Letitia Oprisan - armonie si culoare

Am fost fericita sa pot vedea expozitia de pictura "Solfegii caniculare" a doamnei Letitia Oprisan, deschisa la Sala de expozitii Dialog de la Primaria sectorului 2, Bucuresti.....dar si sa o intalnesc acolo.

Cuvintele sunt de prisos, priviti doar...
Mai multe fotografii se gasesc pe pagina de Facebook a doamnei Oprisan.

I was happy to be able to see the exhibition of paintings "Hot solfeggios" of Mrs. Letitia Oprisan, open to "Dialogue" Exhibition Hall of the City District 2, Bucharest ..... and also to meet her there.

Words are useless, just look ...

 Multumesc, doamna Letitia pentru aceasta incantare!

Challenge, page #2

Pentru pagina #2, trebuia sa fac o fereastra intr-o bucatica de feutru de 7cmx10cm, prin care sa se vada, prin suprapunere, prima  pagina. Peste feutrul initial, de culoare alba, am adaugat lana colorata si fire angelina, fixate cu vliesofix, peste care am facut niste cusaturi decorative si am adaugat margelute. Pe dos am pus tulle.

In the page # 2, I had to do a window in a piece of felt of 7cmx10cm, through which to see the first page by superposition. Over the white felt I added colored wool and angelina threads, fixed with vliesofix (bondaweb), over which I have put some decorative stitches and beads. 

On the back I put tulle.

pagina #2

Iata cum arata cele doua pagini suprapuse. Mie imi place mult ce a iesit!
Here are the superimposed pages.  I like them a lot!

Initial pentru pagina #2 am facut altceva....
Initially I did the page # 2 in this manner ....

Coperta de carte...

Uitandu-ma pe blogul lui Beth, mi-am adus aminte ca am facut si eu, cu ceva timp in urma, o coperta de carte. Beth mi-a trimis un raspuns tare dragut la comentariul meu.

Looking back on Beth's blog, I remembered that I did, some time ago, a book cover. Beth sent me a very nice response to my comment.

Iata coperta mea....nu sunt sigura ca nu-i voi schimba destinatia, poate devine o gentuta....

Here's the my book cover .... I'm not sure, maybe I'll change her destination. Maybe becoming a handbag ....
 

Challenge...

Azi, am sarbatorit 1 Mai prin munca. M-am inscris, acum cateva zile, la un Challenge "Booklet feltalong", organizat de Sara Lechner din Argentina. Urmeaza sa realizam niste mici pagini (aprox.7cmx10cm), care vor fi stranse intr-o carticica. Vom primi, in fiecare luni, instructiuni de la Sara.

Pentru inceput, o pagina pe un background feltat. Nu am lucrat pana acum in aceasta tehnica desi am studiat problema, dar nu s-a ivit ocazia....
Asa ca, am inceput prin a face o bucata de feutru prin tehnica wet felting.

Today, I celebrated May 1st by working. I signed up in a Challenge "Booklet feltalong" organized by Sara Lechner from Argentina. We will do little pages (aprox.7cmx10cm), that will be collected in a booklet. We receive every Monday instructions from Sara.

For start, a page on a felt background. I did not worked until now this technique although I studied the issue. So I started by making a piece by wet felting technique.

Dupa ce s-a uscat, am taiat o bucata  de feutru si am trecut la decorarea lui. Crearea compozitiei este problema cea mai dificila, mai ales cand iti vin mai multe idei. Pana la urma, a iesit asa...

Once dry, I cut a piece of felt and I went to decorate it. Creating composition is the most difficult, especially when coming to you more ideas. Finally, it came out ...

Pentru dos, am folosit un material vopsit in albastru la care am facut deasemenea un embellisment cu fire angelina si free motion. Apoi l-am fixat de partea din fata cu o cusatura in jurul partii feltate.

For back side, I used a blue colored material that I also made a embellisment with angelina fiber and free motion. Then I set him by the front side with a stitch around the felted part.

Iata ce a iesit in final...
The final is this ...
