Oh my, an unsheduled post, that is!

Hello everyone! I hope you are all good and enjoying the summer! First let me say a big thanks to all of you taking your time and checking my blog and commenting while I was gone! I have only one more left, next Friday and I so so so hope it will go well, because it's the hardest one from this session, and being last doesn't really help. And then I will proceed checking my Feedly (so long, Google Reader. Now it's official) - it's a bit scary just thinking of it, I bet it will be more loaded than my email when I checked it, lol!

Anyway, I did some crafting and reading during the session till now, because else I'd go nuts. So now it's report time! Themealicious report time!

This year June was again Jumanji. I announced that I will try to work on the beaded penguins, and quite surprisingly, I did. My mom also asked me to make something for a friend's daughter who is graduating and we agreed on a Margaret Sherry's Archie Bear. being a bear, it's an animal too, so it counts!

Just few rows on Penguins, one of the bad things with stamped images is that progress doesn't show as much as when you're working on blank canvas.
The theme for this month is
Jubilee July

It's time to celebrate! What are you celebrating this year? Stitch on your holiday-related projects, OR find some WIPs you know you'll never finish and set them free.

I will go on with Archie - I have to finish it till 15th, and graduating is most def a cause for celebration. I may  aslo pick the Hogfather along the way

Also, earlier in June, Lynn (aka The Grumbling Gargoyle) let me know she has received her little package. She likes pidgeons and writes beautiful dark poetry, and I also wanted to manage something related to the 12 days/Young 80 stories, so this is waht she got

I'm so glad she liked her little present!

Well, this is for now! If I'm luck, I will report on 15th with no exams and a finished Archie!
have a fund and stitchy week everyone!

Може и да не ви се вярва, но след цял месец от предварително написани постове, ето един съвсем новичък! Първо едно голямо благодаря на всички, които продължаваха да надничат и да коментират. На мен ми остава още само един изпит - другия петък, и ако всичко мине добре, след това се завръщам в света на живите блогъри. Фийдлито ме чака (сбогом Гугъл Рийдър. Вече официално), което е малко страшничко, защото си представям, че се пръска по шевовете, както и електронната пощенска кутия, когато най-сетне я проверих.

Във всеки случай, между четенето за изпитите досега, все пак поработих и почетох, защото иначе мозъкът ми съвсем щеше да си стегне багажа и да замине. То той и сега е на стадий "колелото се върти, но хамстера умря".

Във всеки случай е време за доклад по Темалишъс! Темата за юни беше Джуманджи - в превод животинки всякакви. Като чуе човек Джуманджи, обикновено си представя амазонски джунгли, и Робин Уилямс, естествено, но аз се заех с два по-други животински вида. Бях планирала да поработя върху Пингвините, и доста учудващо, го направих. Макар че прогресът не си личи чак толкова. Едно от лошите качества на щампите е, че напредъкът не се набива на очи така, както когато работиш върху чисто поле.
Освен това мама ме помоли да направя нещо за дъщерята на колега, която се дипломира. Спряхме се на Мечока Арчи на Маргарет Шери, който, въпреки че е академичен, също е живинка, и съответно става за Темалишъса.

Темата за Юли е Юбилей - или разтълкувано, разни неща за празнуване. Със сигурност значи ще продължа с Арчи, едно защото трябва да го свърша до 15,  и второ - дипломирането със сигурност е повод за празнуване. Ако остане време, ще видя какво прави Дядо Прас.

И последно преди да се оттегля в света на мъртвите хамстери, Лин (Гаргойлът) ми изпрати съобщение, че си е получила малкото пакетче, което ѝ пратих. Лин обича гълъби и пише красиви, по гаргойлски мрачни стихове. Освен това исках подаръчето да е свързано с историите на Марджи 12 дни /Млади 80. Мисля, че се получи, а също така и че ѝ харесаха, за което много се радвам.

И с това приключвам отчета за свършеното миналия месец. Ако имам късмет, ще докладвам пак на 15, със завършен Арчи, и с никакви изпити повече :)

Finished biscornu and yet MOAR martcnichki

I just couldn't help myself - I bought some more today
Don't know if you can recognize it, but it's Sailor Mercury up there XD Totally messed up the dress, but I still thought it's cute, so I got this one for myself! And I think the small beads in the background are a very nice touch, representing her bubble attack! I don't know if I mentioned it, but right now I'm watching Sailor Moon, and I'm soooo into it XD

Cat, your lil package is ready for the post tomorrow ^^ And Missy, I'm waiting for your and your sister's address, so I can send it to you too!

Now for the biscornu wip I showed you last week - I finished it today.

Hooray for the "just off the loop"look >.>
Now the finished form...

frontand back

It's wrapped in paper now and ready to be given tomorrow! Hope she likes it!

Не можах да се сдържа, и днес накупих още малко мартенички. Но досега никоя година не съм оставала с нераздадени мартенички, едва ли ще стане и тази! XD

А завърших и бискорнюто за подаръче :) Вече даже е опаковано и чака да бъде подарено утре. Дано се хареса!

YAYAYAYAYAY! YAY!

It arrived!!! The stuff from the giveaway! Thank you sooo much, Cat, all the stuff is AWESOME!!!

The fabrics are unique - how did you get them coloured so good! *love* But I think my favourite part is the angel

And as you can see, I'm already using the new TUSAL jar!

In your card (which is just as amazing as the rest!) you ask me to enjoy it! Lol, be sure I do!!! I'm still in happiness shock actually, so I can't explain how gratefull and everything I am! :DDDD

I took my sister with me, because she wanted to go and buy herself copic markers and she wanted me to show her the shop. And.. it's not like I left the shop without buying anything for myself, either.



The last set of stickers are Rub-ons and are present from the shop :P I love the panda-cream! There's a cat-cake somewhere above too. The nurse bunny is love too. There were two of them, now one is on the cover of the folder with my organic chemistry themes.


Fimo. Something I always wanted to try.


Felt, ribbons and brads. Can't resist.

Those are form the Armstrong Centre. I've been to this place before, but actually didn't know they had some of this stuff. This is because the shop is divided and the funny part is hidden away! Good thing I found out!


This is from the sewing shop. From the moment I saw this in the latest issue of the magazine, I knew I had to have it. I love this design and CAN"T WAIT to be able to stitch it. So tempting... (sob sob sob)

In the shop they didn't have pretty pins. That's why I made an order and just got an email that it should be in the post tomorrow afternoon. With all of this, you can say that I behaved very very badly. But my punishment is that I'm not allowed to touch all of this for more than month from now. Cruel... I'm putting all of this in a big cardboard box and waiting for all the madness to come to an end.
Talking about the madness, this is what is filling my time lately:

Actally this is the chemistry and those days I've been studying more biology. No good, I'm behind >.<"""" And as I journal-ed in DA, I got my diplome. Apart from the slightly annoying average grade of 5.94 of 6.00 (not fair - 5 years I've been getting 6.00 on 18 subjects and just because of the matura... grr however, lol)Apart, I'm very happy about it - and it's so blue and pretty ^^ The other sheet is certificate for excelent results. The diplome has an extra sheet for the personal characterization - lol, we had loads of fun reading what the teachers had written about all the points - preserving the nature, team work etc. ;D

P.S. I got the stuff I ordered from BGArts
I stubled by chance on this site and fell in looove with the ribbons - and the pins. A month ago I went from one sewing shop to another to find some pretty pins for embelishment, but alas. Those were perfect ]:D



I'm so seeing some of this stuff on a biscornu. One of the pins seems crooked, but no big deal, I think I can fix it.
This was actually my very first time ordering stuff from the Internet - but as I said, I fell in love and couldn't miss the chance. the delivery and everything from the site was super fast :D I think I can get hooked to this - lol!

Lol this is it! Sorry for the extremely picture heavy post! And thank you again, Cat, for everything! And not on last place - for the excuse to blog! Have a great week everyone :D

Tatty Wonderland

As I mentioned in the previous post, yesterday was also a classmate's birthday - and exactly this one I was making the card for! So this is what she got from me.



Unlike other time, I can state where the scrapbooking elements come from - because I found them just yesterday. I literally spent hours searching the right paper for the card; and I finished making it at 4 am Friday morning XD Paper for the background is from here and Tatty elements from here (different kits)

I love making and giving away presents - it gives a such awesome feeligs. But to be honest, I almost didn't want to give those away, lol! I want Tatties for myself, too! XD

Unbirthday (image heavy post because I like what I see)

Second post today, but oh well. I just could not wait anymore to show the *unbirthday* presents I've been working on lately, even though I haven't sent them yet. But the person they are for doesn't visit the blog (at least I think so) so it's safe I hope! Anyway I can't wait, nyah!

Why unbirthday? Because if you're sending a present through the post services, there's very high chance for the present not to arrive in time. (With me it's 100% sure, since I lost all day making this card - which is weird, I know, or as sis says "Wicked!" - but I like it anyway. mmm, so I couldn't get to the post in time, and tomorrow and Friday are national holidays - Day of the army - so I won't be able to send it. Damn.... >.<) And Very Merry Unbirthday definitely sounds better than Happy Belated Birthday wishes or whatever. The unbirthday theme just goes along with Alice, there's no questioning that. I personally don't like the Disney movie. The book is better, and I have a great deal of quotes I love from there, but still is seriously creeping me out. One thing I like from the movie (apart from the Cheshire cat) is the Very Merry Unbirthday song. so you have this scene from the movie alond with various items form the scrapbooking kits I spoke about earlier. Btw these are 3 papers I arranged like this not one sheet, so you can blame me for the colour combo. Those kits were definitely meant more for digital srapbooking, and I can assure it was a pain cutting the letters. In the inside is the following little poem : Birthdays come but once a year (and some say that's enough)
because you're one year older and not as up to snuff.
But this is an unbirthday card for all the days in store
without adding a single year you get 364


Finally to show my beloves boxes! I'm still stuck with the pink, as you can see. First to say that the pink and white box didn't make it, because in the end there was no place in the box for it. maybe it's better like this, because even though the paper is from the same kit, the other two just feat one another and this stands out. I put the bracelets that were inside in the baggy.

It's stil deserves your attention :P I decided to keep in the paper stars I made (or rather the patethic attempts). I used the Disgaea star paper from Missy Tannenbaum that made the work much more enjoyable! Still making the stars in way harder that the origami boxes! The paper for the boxes I found on Ilovehandmade.ru

The other two. The bigger one has some chocos in
The smaller one - beads/charms

Btw as you see, those three boxes have different patterns (the pattern of the big one can't be seen right, damn, but it's a "wheel") the lighter pink is a "lightning" and the thirs is a "bow", but they're all made form the same units, connected in different ways. I can't wait to try the next serie of units to see what patterns will come out!
No high lighting the cube, you've already seen it. I wanted to send anime stickers, but couldn't find good ones - so let it be 2D bunnies. The thread is not DMC, but Ariadna. It's less common or so it seems, but I like it. And I thought it would be more interesting to send it than DMC or Anchor.


This little purse took me some time to make. Most of it I was wondering "I can do it... no i can't... it won't look good this way..." and so on. The actual work was 2 x Bleach + Disney Robin Hood + Kronk's New Groove. again, I'm happy with result, especially the seams. about two rows above the T is the "invisible seam" and I think I did it right! The little plushie Taurus was love from first sight, I bought it along with even cuter Cancer although I don't know any cancers. And I found just the perfect cross stitch pattern mathing the Taurus with the exact same coulurs , but really didn't have the time for it (or else it would be just in time for the next year birthday!). well maybe I'll really make it for next year!
The whole thing is a total colour way - killer regarding my pink & black theme btw.

And in the inside there is:
You've seen those already, except for the keychain. Yup, it's pink & black, and it's a flying pig. We all know pigs are meant to fly so we should get over it. Again this pig should have had a blue friend, because the original bracelet pattern had them both. Blame the lack of time
The paper clip is here to save the day (the colour way)! and having Mentos as a hair pin is just cool.

P.S. Thanks for the nice comments regarding the end of high school! I can't fully realize it yet, lol... I'll miss many things, that's for sure, but right now it's good to have a little more time to concentrate on the university exam studying. And it would be good if I actually use this time for that purpose >.<""""
