How About a Masquerade? (Ce ziceti de un bal mascat?)

For those who are wondering why the status on my Yahoo Messenger, here is the reason. I am working on some new masquerade ball invitations. No, not for princess Emily again, but for her friends, princess Ana and princess Clarisa.

I can't wait to share the finished invitations with you. I really love how they came out and I also had a lovely afternoon sunlight for my photo shoot.

**********************

Pentru cei care se intreaba ce e cu statusul meu de pe Yahoo Messenger, iata motivul: tocmai lucrez la niste invitatii noi pentru 2 baluri mascate. Nu, nu pentru printesa Emily. De data aceasta sunt pentru prietenele ei, Printesa Ana si printesa Clarisa.

Abia astept sa vi le pot arata. Sunt foarte multumita de cum au iesit aceste invitatii si am avut o lumina incantatoare pentru sedinta foto de dupa-masa.

Late Sunflower Wedding Invitation (O floarea soarelui tarzie. Invitatie de nunta)

My creative self says I must break the monotony of the purples, wines, lilacs and burgundy's I have been filling my blog with lately. So here it is, the only invitation that I made for 2 weddings this year. The others were all unique designs for unique weddings.

Eul meu creativ imi spune ca trebuie sa rup monotonia creata de nuantele de violet si visiniu cu care am umplut blogul in ultimul timp. Iata, asadar, singura invitatie pe care am facut-o anul acesta pentru 2 nunti. In rest au fost doar invitatii unicat pentru nunti unicat :)

Sneak peak: What's the French for "Feather"? (Cum se spune "pana" in franceza?)

......it is ........... LA PLUME!

What's with me and the French, right?
Well, I have always had a weakness for Versailles and all the people who used to live there (described by Alexandre Dumas, of course!) I used to recite entire passages from The Three Musketeers.

Ce tot am eu cu francezii, nu?
Paaai... am eu o slabiciune pentru Versailles si personajele din romanele lui Alexandre Dumas. Obisnuiam sa recit pasaje intregi din "Cei trei muschetari".


French royalty novels is exactly what inspired these invitations that are finally leaving stage (my work table that is). All I can tell you for now that these are the most intricate and extravagant invitations I have ever made (took me an entire week just to design them). The picture above is just one of the many combinations I have tried.

Invitatiile al caror design tocmai l-am termiat sunt inspirate din romanele cu monarhia franceza. Acestea sunt cele mai extravagante invitatii pe care le-am facut pana acum. Doar designul mi-a luat o saptamana intreaga. Sa fie oare o avanpremiera la ce urmeaza ..? :)
