…compilation of tutorials
Doesn’t this ‘A’ look great?
And where the ‘A’ comes from, you can find muuuch more :)
I don’t know yet what I will do with it apart from very personal Birthday cards, but I’m sure that I’ll come up with some idea ;-))

Entries with the tag ‘card’
I found a tutorial for very nice favour bags which are seemingly very easily to make from common printer paper.
Perhaps I will use them for my next birthday (because I won’t marry in the near future ;-)).

When I saw the knitted video for the first time, I was sitting there with my jaw dropped.
That didn’t look very beautiful (me, not the video! ;-)).
Anyhow: I’m toootally amazed about.
And I won’t never, ever try to knit such a thing by myself ;-))
(I know, I know, it is machine knitted.
Even so ;-))

I find the Japanese name translator really great, I simply let output the name Susann in all possible fonts ;-)
I’m not yet sure what to do with them but nothing could be easier than to turn them into filet crochet/cross stitch embroidery charts and then we’re really going to get started with knitting, crocheting, embroidering, knotting, stencelling etc ;-))
Or I print them as signature next time on a greeting card.
Or I cut a stamp from it.
Do you have more ideas?

I find the idea to make a photo of your children, to make a silhouette stencil from the photo and then to print it on a t-shirt great – but a too narrow approach ;-):
Why not making a t-shirt with your own name in Japanese?
Or using the silhouette of a well known building (i.e. the Eiffelturm)?
And why only on a t-shirt, why not on a linen bag, a greeting card or quite large on the wall?
And why as a stencil, why not simply as a self-cut stamp?
Or as fabric appliqué?
Well, I really must think about what else can be done this way ;-)
If you have a good idea I’d be happy if you commented about (if not, I’d be happy about a comment, too ;-)).

Your name in Japanese
Note: I wrote an entry about your name in Japanese but I rescheduled it thoughtlessly to another date because of the World Wide Knit in Public Day 2009 (WWKiP Day).
I’m sorry, it will still take some days (I don’t dare to reschedule everything again ;-().
Now I can offer you the right link to your name in Japanese ;-)
But there you can see it: all hand-made ;-))
Some time ago I presented the Tartan Generator, now comes ‘his brother’, the stripe generator.
There you can let easily and fast let make striped backgrounds.
I will surely need it, i.e. when creating a birthday card.

I found another wonderful toy: the kaleidoscope for photos.
I made the picture with the given flower photo (I used the pink ‘umbrella’ at the left top) and post-worked it a little.
I like it!
You can make beautiful greeting cards or the like with this.

Today there’s no tutorial, but I liked the aerial image greetings so much that I wanted to share.
Click on the picture to enlarge and to see better what this is about.
But the picture is only the result, the whole message is revealed letter by letter.
Have fun sending love to good friends!

Your work becomes really personal if you can use your own design.
The Palette Editor gives you the opportunity to upload your own picture and enter certain bead producers and not only to get a bead template back, but also to get the appropriate bead product numbers (or the similar).
Because I’m using mostly no name beads I can’t ‘savour’ it to the full, but the picture alone is already a great help.
For the picture at the top I simply used a tile that I had made with Kali.

When there comes the time again where you can sit on your patio and dine with friends (ok, ok, it will still take some time, but a woman can dream ;-)), the candle lit photo stands can make a romantic atmosphere.
In the instruction they print their own photos on vellum and glue them on, I preferred my favourite gift wrap.
Besides you should also be able to use the topmost layer of the used paper napkins (possibly glued on vellum), then everything matches even better.
