Happy 10th anniversary...i love you hubby!

09:00 4 Comments

Hello....good morning Singapore. Happy tuesday. Try to always be grateful for what has God given to you today, simple thing You still able breathe. The more you being grateful the more you will not feel sadness or burden ^_^.

Today i have a card to share based on my friend request. She is celebrating her 10th anniversary! Congratulations debby! May you stay happy together forever. 
She also requested me to have pastel pink and blue colour. Ohhh how i adore this colour combo :)
So here is the card. I have decided to make a Zfold card this time.

Image is Magnolia tilda from Lost and found collections. I have white embossed her and coloured her with distress re inkers. A really very light colour because i want the image blend together with the rest of the embellishment and background.

And here is the close up. Since it is a pretty open concept card whic you can peep the inside part of card, so i will have lesser space to place sentiments. Therefore i decided to tuck in 2 tags For the tags,flowet banner, i die cut use magnolia dies that comes in doohickey club volume 5.

And i decided to put the Happy 10 anniversary on the card. Just love it how it turn out :)

And here is the full picture of the card. She requested to put word " i love you hubby".
For the 4 corners of the inside card, i have white embossed LOTV stamps to add a little details.
And of course for all the edges i have added chunky glitter to give more touch. i am all about glitters :)

Would love to enter this card for the following challenge


Thank you for stopping by :)

Card for Stretch your stamp 2 day 1 homework ^_^

08:00 8 Comments

Hi Hello..Good morning!! have you heard about the stretch your stamp 2 class from Simon says stamp shop?  if you have not you better check it out. I am one of their participant (student) ^_^.
On monday i attended their first lessons and saw there are few videos on the first lesson. found each of the video is awesome!!! worth every cent you spend :). Very inspiring and easy to follow!
 
So inspired by the design team videos, i have decided to do my homework and come out with this card. I know i am late in "submitting" my homework but nevermind, i think the main thing is i have fun isnt?
 
For the today card, i have mixed few of the techniques and design shared in the video into one card.
I do not have stamps that the DT use in the video so i just use whatever i have in my stash.

For the background, i stamped hero arts background stamp and emboss it with white embossing powder on the watercolour paper. i have notice that my white embossing powder doesnt work as supposedly. It doesnt show white colour at all and more to cream colour, secondly i didnt stick well though i use new versamark. I guess my embossing powder expired :P...can this happen ^_^ ?
 Since i do not have other white embossing powder so i went on with the project. Coloured the background with few distress inks. Cut it to smaller pcs (3cm x 3cm) and create window panel. I regret that i didnt put foam dots on the back some of the panel to create in and out look.  Maybe next time ^_^.
 
I made a mistake ! because of i never clear emboss the hot air balloon image and the ink bleed. But i use versafine! which supposedly waterproof? hmmm lesson learnt.
Anyway, i lovee lovee this hot air balloon stamp and dies from Lawn Fawn! a GILTOS (Give Love to Old Stash) item for today.

So this is the side view of the card. For the rain drop i use the negative part of the Hello sentiment from lawn fawn. ^_^ dont waste even the negative part.
 
Would love to enter this card for

So that is it the card for today. Fun Class and i had fun while making this card, most of all i used my old stash on this card.

GILTOS : Thoughts of You sweetie

08:00 4 Comments

Oh Hello there...welcome back to my blog :). Hope you have a good rest last night.
Today i have something fun and lots of work on my card from embossing, die cutting,fussy cutting, watercolour and many more.
Before that i decided come out with my own term which i called GILTOS -GIve Love To Old Stash. I will be using this terms in my blog everytime i use my very old or untouched stash. I feel so happy when i created this card. So lets get started and see what is under GILTOS.

 
First and foremost is embossing powder. I have tons of colourful embossing powder but mostly i never use it. I just keep using white or clear as it is the easiest one. So today i Give some love my Zing embossing powder and use it on my sentiment from paper smooches ( Thoughts of you sweetie).
 
Second things is Stamp. If read my blog previously i always say i have lots of stamps. So i have stopped buying stamps for more than 1 month (i am so elated!) until yesterday there was a big sale in my local scrapbook store, so i decided to grab 3 stamps set. Well to me 3 stamps set after more than 1 month never shop is very good! ^_^. So let t see what is the old stash there. First is the coconut trees from stampendous. It supposedly come with the monkey below but i decided to cover it. Another items are my lawn fawn fox and speech bubble stamp and leaves Paper smooches stamp. Isnt that fox cute! though a little bit odd as fox doesnt goes to beaches.does he? :D
 
Third things is my scattered straw distress stickles to create sandy feel look :)
 
So here a little close up
I have cut few sunshine dies from lawn fawn on watercolour paper and coloured it with distress ink.
inks that i used are mustard seed, peel paint, worn lipstick, pumice stone, evergreen and dried marigold. The first 3 sunshines i stacked it based on the original size.The next 2 sunshines i have trimmed the rays slightly smaller and lastly one will be trimmer pretty short just slightly longer than the brads.

Overjoyed for you

08:00 5 Comments
Hello friends.. welcome back again to my humble blog.
Hope you had a blast weekend. it is sunny summer here in singapore but sometimes there slight rain now and then which is good ^_^.  so inspired by sunny weather in Singapore, i decided to create bright colour card again.

 
So here i am using watercolour technique since this is the trend! so if i dont follow the trend now, i would be outdated :D.
 
I guess the best ink to do watercolour technique will be distress inks.
from left to right, i used worn lipstick, mustard seed, peel paint and dried marigold.
It looks so pretty right ? if you want to achieve this pastel colour, be sure to mixed the ink with lots of water before apply it to the watercolour paper. once it is dry i applied embossing paste use simon says stamp stencil. I LOVE STENCIL!!! ^_^ especially simon says stamp.
 
The cutie twin sister from mama elephant - cosmic star and the banner and tiny cute flowers is from mama elephant sweet havana. The banner i lightly colour with distress ink pumice stone.
Bottom part of the card i cut the cardstock use magnolia dies.
 
Would love to enter this card for the following challenges

for the bottom part flowers i used sweet havana stamp , for the banner i use water bloom dies and stamp. the tiny cute star on the banner i took it from cosmic stars stamps and all from mama elephant.
