Pocket Art Card - my process

PAC: Use underpaper

The Documented Life Project - The UnPlanner #May

Hello creative people!!! As I said in the previous post, lately I had not the time that i wanted to dedicate myself to this project. Time passed and I stopped in the last week of April!!! (an you believe!!! OMG)
Today, contrary to what is usual, I will do a view of the month.  I decided to just make the PAC's and document the most important aspects of the month with words and some photos.

Olá gente criativa!!! Tal como disse no post anterior, ultimamente não tenho tido o tempo que eu desejava para me dedicar a este projeto. O tempo foi passando e eu fiquei na última semana de abril.
Hoje ao contrário do que é costume, vou fazer um apanhado do mês. Dado o meu atraso, decidi fazer apenas os cartões (aka PAC) e  documentar os aspetos mais importantes do mês.

This is the PAC for the last week of April. The prompt was choose a color that you usually avoid.

Este é o cartão da última semana de abril, em que o desafio era usar uma cor que normalmente evitamos.

This is my May divider. I will talk a little about my process on the next post. 

Este é o separador do mês de maio. Falarei um pouco sobre todo o processo no p´roximo post.

As you already know for my UnPlanner the main paper that i use is brown paper bags that i save from bread.  Inspired on the last post from Anna Friesen where she share with us a tri-pocket to fit the PAC's, i made one with my paper bags.  In there I put the 4 PAC's of the month. In the next posts I will share with you my all process on the PAC's.

May was a month of more work, but we find time to go out  in family, and was the month of my birthday celebration. This was also the month that our garden give us the first fruits from this season. So I documented all this beautiful moments on my planner.
I made also some flower embellishments, inspired on Rae Missigman video. This flowers were a gift from the beautiful friend Susana, and i wanted that they go into my planner.

Se acompanham este meu projeto, sabem que escolhi como papel principal para o meu UnPlanner sacos de papel castanhos que guardo do pão. Inspirada na ultima postagem da Anna Friesen, onde ela partilha connosco um bolso para três cartões, eu também fiz um para colocar os cartões do mês. 

Nos próximos posts irei partilhar todo o meu processo também.

O mês de maio, foi de mais trabalho, mas deu para passear em família e foi o mês do meu aniversário. Foi o mês em que se começou a ver alguns dos frutos da nossa horta. Todos estes momentos, foram registados no meu UnPlanner.

I was missing this planner so much!!! I love this project and the freedom that I have to myself to create on it! it's like a junk artfull journal, like a lab where i explore art ideas. I'm almost finishing my second planner so far. I have two group of rings full of yammyness art. :)

Tinha imensas saudades deste projeto, de trabalhar no meu UnPlanner. É um jornal onde me dou total liberdade para criar. Adoro a mistura de papeis de cores, texturas, o registo de memórias do ano. Adoro!!! Tenho quase o segundo volume completo!!!

Glittered Hearts

We are almost on valentine day and i love to celebrate the day, despite my life leaves around love all of the year!!! (Is my energy)

I used very simple materials. Cardboard and brown paper from gift paper bags. 

On cardboard I used the punch to have forms of hearts and on brown paper I doodled some hearts. Then I put UHU glue in some parts of the heart and glued glitter.

So simple and so cute! :) Hope you enjoy!!

Usei materiais muito simples. Cartolina e papel pardo de sacos de papel. Nas cartolinas eu usei o furador para ter formas de  corações e no papel pardo desenhei alguns corações. Depois coloquei cola UHU em algumas partes do coração e colei glitter.

tão simples e fica muito giro! 

ART Card - my process!

Today I want to share with you a little bit of my process on the making of a little Art Card from my Planner. This little art cards are, as the name suggests, little bits of art that you can add as embellishments to your art journals, planners or offer as a gift tag for instance. 

As they are little pieces you can make them in few minutes. They are great for you to make art every day even if you don't have much time for that.

 I started with a page where I add some scrap paint from cleaning the brushes from other projects!!

Add some strips of magazines and newspaper.

 Add some stokes of white and doodled a flower! I stamped some flowers in the corner and added some collages with leftover papers! (I collect almost  every bits of paper that left from other projects! They fit great in this little pieces of art don't you think? :))The important is to create texture and beautiful fused layers!!!

You can write some words, or quotes that inspires you.
For the final touches I add some stitches which i love and a little strip of ribbon.

Hope you feel inspired to create. Is a little art card. You can make it in 10 min!! This is an artful therapy!!

Have fun!! Be inspired!!

The Docummented Life Project 2016 - The UnPlanner #Week3

We come to the third week of The Documented Life 2016The UnPlanner 

I wanted this week record some of what inspires me and suggest to all of you to be  inspired. Needless to great things, simple pleasures, small moments, a beautiful nature walk, the ones that we love. After read the prompt and this week work of Rae Missigman I knew that I had to record that on my UnPlanner this week. And that bring me for my word - be inspired (and I'm so grateful for that I have near me what really inspires me) 

This week, my process was, caught on a sheet of paper where I had already some scrap paint and then create my "PAC" and my "List ten". I added strips of magazines and newspapers and joined some of the things that inspires me.

I'm really amazed with this project. I'm surprising myself with creativity. It's been for me like a lab where i can play with all my supplies. 

I read on the facebook group that some girls are feeling lost. Please try again. Dont give up!

My process is: I first read the prompts and the ideas of the creators. I know that i have to create a list, a PAC and document my week. that's all. After that i really do what I want. In my point of view, we have to be ourselves. Take our print in our unplanner. So make just art, document your days, and that's it!!! Have fun!

My Unplanner is getting gorgeous (for me of course). I'm making things that I would not do if i wasn't doing this kind of Planner. So thank you so much for the weekly prompts and the big support on the beautiful facebook group!! :)

Chegamos à semana 3 do projeto - The Documented Life Project 2016- The UnPlanner!. Esta semana queria registar um pouco do que me inspira e sugerir a todos que se sintam inspirados. Não é preciso grandes coisas, o que nos rodeia, simples prazeres, pequenos momentos, um belo passeio pela natureza. 

O meu processo esta semana foi pegar numa folha onde já tinha alguma tinta e a partir daí criar o meu "PAC" e a minha "List ten". Adicionei tiras de revistas e jornais e juntei algumas das coisas que me inspiram.

The Docummented Life Project -The Unplanner is a year long almost free class (what you pay don't pay what you receive from that wonderful people!!) where you are invited to play with your art materials and document your weeks. We receive weekly prompts and challenges with videos and peeks.

Week 1

Week 2

wood little houses

You know how I like a beautiful and easy craft projects. 

I had around here small pieces of wood,those that come with canvas and did not serve me for nothing because don't use them in canvas. I thought that would be a cute project if I build some cute little wood houses.

Sabem como eu gosto de um bonito e rápido projeto de craft. Tinha aqui em casa umas embalagens de pequenas peças de madeira daquelas que vêm com as telas e que não me serviam para nada pois não as usava nos quadros. Lembrei-me de construir pequenas casas em madeira.

Glue two halves of wood with UHU glue and paint with acrylic paint in the colors that mean more to you.

Colei duas metades com cola UHU e pintei com tinta acrílica com cores variadas.

After dry I used black marker and drew the houses. Use your imagination!. Here kids can help. With their hands should be pretty well.

Depois de secas, usei marcador preto e desenhei as casa. Aqui tmabém os pequenos podem ajudar. Com a mão deles devem ficar tmabém bem bonitas.

I used them in two ways. in some of them I glued a magnet and became part of our fridge to attach drawings, notes or reminders!

Lembrei-me de as usar de duas maneiras. Numas colei um íman e passaram a fazer parte do nosso frigorífico para prender desenhos, notas ou lembretes!

And the others will be beautiful embellishments to my unplanner. You can use them  in scrapbooking to!

As restantes guardei-as e vão ser usadas para embelesar algumas páginas do meu UnPlanner ou para Scrapbooking.
É muito fácil de fazer e fica uma ideia muito gira.

Hope you liked and be inspired.
