Few cards for few challenges

17:08 9 Comments
I am back with another post of the day. Like i mention in the other post. i am simply want to take a break today from doing colouring images or if possible stamping also but still make cards. Just some kind of off day for my paper stumps, my sansodor and watercolour pencils ^_^. Unfortunately my glue still working hard..lol. so today card is pretty simple- well honestly to say it isnt easy to make simple card, but it is a good thing for me to different type of card making. I have learn one thing actually..to make the work faster and efficient i have to work with the same pattern paper brand. like below cards, all the pattern papers are from three bug in a rug paper pack.When you want to buy pattern paper pack, my suggestion try to choose the one with die cuts in it, not only stickers.stickers tend to be small size than die cuts.
so no futher talk....here are the cards that i created within 1.5 hours. 30 minutes each card..is it consider fast?
i guess yes for me (^_^)

Supplies : three bugs in a rug-last year collections (i love the black dotted paper)
prima marketing flowers (i guess this is collections 2 years a go and probably nw discontinue)
Maya road branch-sprayed with adirondack ink and colour it again with color box
EK success punches- moroccan border 
Glitter star dust

Supplies : same as above
Velvet ribbon, Pearls,ek success puncher-scallop


supplies : same as above

i guess that is it for today
thanks for looking
have a nice day and hugs

Simple xmas cards to share

16:36 5 Comments
Hello everyone..how was your weekend? Time flies very fast isnt?it does scared me sometimes for i havent done a lot of things.For that thought, yesterday and today, i feel simply want to do some cards that doesnt require colouring, doesnt require stamping if it is possible and definetely must use my very old stock. Dont you feel relieve or feeling happy when you finally can slowly  " get rid off" your old pattern papers, stickers or probably rub on? as for me yes. I still have 2007 pattern paper..OMG..and lots of 2008,2009. will be adding 2010 soon. so to welcome my new " baby"- newly pattern paper...lol...i have to use up all the old one.

here are the lists of the pattern paper brand that mostly i am crazy about :

1.October afternoon-
 top favourite..must have everytime there is new paper pack coming.

2.Cosmo cricket-
Is compliment with october afternoon as they never create any white colour background! it is always vintage white same like october afternoon. the flowery design and classic pattern simply goes well with all my cards.

3.KnCo-
nothing much to say than Beautiful collection all the years. My paper packs 12 " 12 " stacked highly from this brand

4.My minds eye
 always come in very unique design and if you know this brand, the paper texture is my fave.

5. American Craft-
love the basic design like checkers, polkadot and the strong colours that they have.it is definetely brighten my day!

And this are the newly added fav brands
5.Jilibean-
the latest design are very versatile and definetely my colours

6.Girls paperie-
 love the pinky colours that they have. Most of the collections come in pastel colours

7.Echo Park!
yeah this newly company produced such lovely stuning and unspeakable collections! from the summer to the xmas..another pattern paper pack that suite me well. i guess it will take over october afternoon soon!love this one..now i am waiting for their xmas series- there are 2 types and the halloween. OMG dont make me wait to long..please send to Singapore soon...lol

New purpose of my paper stash

16:53 6 Comments
Hi everyone (i bet all of you still in dreaming land!-for US friends..lol)
Have you ever get irritate by the pile of paper stash? well i will try to help you today.
as i am doing a super duper small cards sales in my country (well actually between friends ^_^), i have been thinking want to create my so call business card for my super duper small business. I have did research on some etsy seller that doing personalize business card till personalize stamps but it is so costly. so i decided to make my very own name cards.Handmade name card isnt even more personalize?

So here are some of the handmade name cards that i created use my paper destash
Blue series

Pink series- love this soo much but i dont have the paper anymore T_T


Red series

Because of this now i dont event dare to throw a single strip of papers-oh no..suppose to reduce the stash but become more. The reason is because i still can use even a small amount of paper
like this


see the stip of paper on the left?

and this

the cross design on the bottom left is left over from the punched border

by the way i cant call myself stamper if i dont even stamp anything on my "business card"

stamp from hero arts.i stamp the butt of the business card

hope this will inspire you
hugs
yenni
