Scrapbooking

Scrapbooking este un termen imprumutat de la americani, iar primele dati am vazut astfel de albume in copilarie, cind priveam filme americane. M-au cucerit. Imi pareau atit de colorate si de unice, incit ideea de a-mi crea propriul album mi s-a intiparit in minte inca de atunci.

Dar au trecut mai multi ani pina cind sa-mi reamintesc de aceasta dorinta. Am inceput primul meu album sau scrapbook cind eram in SUA din mai multe motive: a) faceam sute de poze pe saptamina si nu doream sa le pierd, b) gasisem o multime de materiale colorate si c) aveam atitea sa povestesc. Astfel am descoperit un nou hobby.

Dupa ce am terminat cu amintirile din SUA, am completat albumul cu amintiri din anii de liceu si experientele mele de voluntariat. Am reusit sa creez un scrapbook destul de bogat. Am pastrat acolo cele mai pretioase amintiri. Ma emotionez de fiecre data cind il rasfoiesc. Probabil aceasta este menirea principala a albumelor foto. Sa te readuca in trecut.

Pentru mine pozele printate sunt foarte importante. Da, suntem in secolul 21 si evolutia tehnologiei este uimitoare. Dar, nimic nu se compara cu momemtul cind esti intins pe canapea si rasfoiesti cu dor filele unui album. Oi fi eu mai demodata, dar sint sigura ca voi continua sa fac acest lucru inca mult timp inainte.

Acum am inceput sa fac un alt album, dedicat in intregime lui Oliver. Uneori am impresia ca exagerez cu pozele, pentru ca primul an din viata micutului a fost foarte frumos, iar noi aveam grija sa imortalizam fiecare moment important. Faceam poze de citeva ori pe zi. Dar cred ca asa fac toate mamele. Deci avem 1000+ poze cu Oliver care doarme, maninca sau se plimba. Cu toate acestea, fiecare poza este importanta pentru noi.

Acum sa trecem la partea practica.

 Cind realizam un album de gen scrapbook?

Nu este o regula. O facem atunci cind simtim. Daca aveti o persoana draga pe care doriti sa o surprindeti puteti sa ii daruiti un album personalizat, care sa includa  cele mai frunoase amintiri traite impreuna. Sunt sigura ca va fi un cadou apreciat.

 De ce avem nevoie?

 Din fericire, acum putem gasi o gama vasta de materiale pe care le putem folosi. Se gasesc online sau in magazine de crafting, iar preturile variaza. Eu le-am comandat online la un pret accesibil. Iata citeva lucruri care cu siguranta o sa va fie utile la inceput:

- un album sau o mapa cu inele
-foi colorate
- Poze ( preferabil de diferite marimi)
-litere
-abtibilduri
-washi tapes
-colturi pentru poze
- plicuri mici si colorate

Cum incepem?

Nu exista o regula anumita. Incercati doar sa va gasiti o tema generala ( ex. Album de familie, calatorii, ani de liceu etc.) Astfel va fi mult mai usor sa generati idei. Va sugerez sa navigati pe diverse site-uri inspirationale. Veti ramine uimit de cite posibilitati exista. Cu toate acestea, fiecare album este unic!

Va doresc mult succes! As vrea sa stiu daca mai este cineva care iubeste scrapbooking-ul la fel de mult?

Cu drag,
Alina

Did you know that? Italy

Hello everyone 😇, Italy is the country that has adopted us. I have been living here for almost 4 years now. It has its ups and downs but as a grateful daughter, I will not talk about any negative aspect here. This post is about the interesting facts you probably didn't know about Italy. I didn't know some of them either. And it was fun enough to discover it now. So here they are! Did you know that: 1. Italy has more volcanoes than any other country in Europe. It hosts all 3 of Europe's active volcanoes; 2. Pizza was invented in Naples. And it has recently become UNESCO's patrimony. Not the pizza as a product but the process of making pizza; 3.

Letter to Oliver

Dear baby Oliver, Why do you hurry  to grow up? Don't understand me wrong, I am glad and proud every time you do something new. Your noisy laughter melts my heart. The tender way you look into my eyes is just priceless. When you gently hold my hand it reminds me of all the times I have been thinking of you and waiting for you. Why don't you want to stop the time just for an instance? I wish I could keep the innocence in your eyes forever. I wish I could protect you from the bad. I want to see you growing a strong boy with a loving heart. I don't want you to get hurt in any way! Thank you for making me worth being called a "Mother". You have thaught me what patience is. You also help me understand that not everything should be about me. Your presence in our lives has made us better people. We can talk without saying any words. You are little but your heart is bigger than ours. There is room for everyone! This week you turned 8 months. 8 months of Joy, Love

Tips on how to improve your English

Hello English lovers! I dedicate this post to you! I am glad that we have something in common. English language has become my 2nd favourite language in time (after my native Romanian of course). Unfortunately there is a sad thing about foreign languages: if you don't practice you can easily forget them. Not everything, but most of the words and phrases. Since I don't have the possibility to speak English as often as I would want to, I have decided to work on my own. Therefore I found some interesting sources, where anyone could improve his English. Today I am sharing my list with you. I hope you like it. 1. Pot vorbi engleza/ I can speak English This  FB page  has been created by my FLEX friend Nicoleta Dvornicov. Although it is a course oriented mostly on beginners, I like to watch the video Nicoleta posts regularly. They are very accurate and informative ( with perfect English pronounciation). If you think this is too easy for you, than at least send this link to y
