(A Late) Happy Mother's Day!

I know it's already the 9th, but I've just finished my card for tonight and I couldn't let this day (actually yesterday already...) to pass without telling all the beautiful and crafty women I know here in the blogosphere a sweet, truthful and well-deserved  

"Happy Mother's Day!"

As a gift for all my lady readers and followers ( in fact, all talented crafty women are ladies, because the art will always ennoble us) I will share with you a card I've done last night, as a request from one of my college colleagues, who wanted this for her mother. It's been the first time I've quilled with this palette of colours - chocolate, cappuccino, mild beiges and yellows, khaki, pale greens and a touch of burgundy. I've had the papers for a long time, loved the colours when I had bought them but never had the chance to work with them. But I must admit I like the way they blend together on the ivory card stock, although they might look more like "autumn-y" rather than "spring-y" :) 

I truly hope that the celebrated receiver of my work enjoyed it. Do you? I'll wait for your opinions and comments below, but,

Until next time,

The 2011 Spring Collection :)

So, last night I was telling you I have so much new work to show you! These cards were made for my brother's teachers, during my intersemestrial holiday (one week), for the Martisor , a traditional national spring celebration. You can read more about this Romanian tradition by clicking on the link here. So, if you see the red and white filament in the corner of some of my next cards, you have to know that this is because of the Martisor. The reason why you won't find it on all of my cards is that I didn't manage to glue them all until the moment of the photo shooting. The photos were taken by my sweet little brother. Thank you, bro'!

I hope this post will reward your long waiting and my so longer absence! Enjoy and stay around because I plan on adding new stuff ASAP!

Until next time,
Behave And Quill!
