8.mart, međunarodni dan žena - Mother's Day card

S obzirom da smo celu proteklu nedelju suprug i ja naizmenično dežurali oko Eme (temperatura preko 39 u trajanju od 5 dana), nisam baš bila nešto predpraznično raspoložena. Ali, kako bih sebi malo skrenula misli, skoknula sam do svojih mi omiljenih blogova i kod mame koja ne radi na repeat pronašla odličnu ideju za čestitku za osmi mart.

Naime, sve što vam je potrebno je:

1. parče hamera u željenoj boji
2. lepak za papir
3. skalpel
4. fotka drage vam osobe (dete ili čak i vi) koja drži ruku ispruženu, a prste skupljene (čik nađite jednu takvu kad vam treba!)
5. cvetić (možete ga i sami napraviti, a možete ga i kupiti kod Kineza, ja sam izabrala drugu varijantu)

Fotografiju razvijte na onu klasičnu veličinu nekadašnjih foto albuma, da bi vam stala čestitka u klasični koverat (praktičnosti radi). Kada birate fotografiju, bilo bi dobro da ispružena ruka ne bude ispred lica, jer je onda cvet nešto teže namestiti. Isecite po jedan mali trougao ispod i iznad savijene šake i kroz ta dva otvora provucite dršku cveta. Sve lepo prilepite na isečeni hamer, dodajte veselu poruku, spakujte u koverat i čekajte pozitivne reakcije! Mi smo poslali po jednu svakoj baki i sutra ćemo predati treću vaspitačicama u vrtiću (malko se ulizujemo, od malih nogu, ali šta da se radi :D ).

Having in mind that my husband and I spent the previous week playing nurse around Ema (a fever of over 39 degrees, lasting for 5 days), I was not really in the mood for the upcoming holiday. But, to take my mind off these things, I opted for reading some posts by my favourite bloggers. I came across this great idea for a Mother's day card on mothers don't operate on repeat  blog.

What you need is the following:

1. a sheet of paper for making cards in the desired colour
2. paper glue
3. a scalpel
4. a photo of a loved one (a child, or perhaps even you) with their hand stretched open and fist closed (I dare you to find such a photo when you really need it!)
5. a paper flower (you can make one, but I bought mine)

Print out the photo in the desired size (compare it to the envelope, make sure it fits). When choosing a photo, it would be better to have the hand stretched out away from the face, it will make the placing of the flower easier. Cut out one small triangle above and one under the fist and pull the flower stem through these openings. Paste everything to the paper, add a nice message, put the card in the envelope and wait for the oohs and aahs.
