Konnichiwa

Recently, my daughter's school had some student exchangees from Japan and she was chosen as one of the ambassadors to welcome these students.

She wanted to make a card to depict the Malaysian spirit and yet something unusual. So I helped her with the idea.

This was what we came out with. :) I must say, i was pretty pleased with the outcome.
Hope you enjoyed visiting here! *hugs*

The Paper Players Challenge #115

Now this is one very unusual challenge I have ever seen so far! :) I love Tic-Tac-Toe and this adapted onto cardmaking...it's brilliant! Thanks for the fun Anne Marie! 

Well, something just caught my eye when I read this:

(For the record, I will give HUGE props to anyone that takes on the diagonal challenge of Christmas, Wedding/Anniversary and Birthday ALL together on one card. Any takers?? Ha Ha!!) 

Tee hee! You have a taker here! Ha Ha! :) I just had to try this one out. A real fun challenge...so here it goes.

I thought long and hard and almost gave up then...I had this fun idea! I wanted to make a card from the perception of a guy wanting to propose to his girlfriend/ fiancee on her birthday. :)

So, as you can see, the front says "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" but when she opens the card, its a PROPOSAL! :) For the "CHRISTMAS" part...I incorporated the background to give the Christmassy feeling.

Hope everyone had an enjoyable time viewing my card! *hugs*
Have a blessed day!

Sparkles Creation Christmas Card Challenge #44 and Dynamic Duo DD#22

I am so excited! Christmas has always been the best time of the year for me. It's not so much about the shopping and all, it's more about the excitement of meeting my brother and his wife from Singapore, and the gathering of everyone.

I just love Family gatherings!

Well, you can imagine how excited I was to find a Christmas card challenge. Just so timely! :)

For this challenge I wanted to do something different. Instead of the usual, snowman, reindeers, christmas tree and all, I wanted to depict something that I love.

I love ballet. And when I think of Christmas, the Nutcracker always comes to my mind.
Since I have this Ballerina Chipboard which my mum got me when she went for a Craft show a few years back.. I have decided to use it and put it to good use! :)

So, as you can see, my Ballerina is dancing for Joy for this Christmas season! And I hope you have also enjoyed my card! *hugs*

My craft materials are limited so I used whatever I could get my hands on. Its SIMPLE...but its beginning to look a lot like Christmas! *hugs*

Have a blessed day!

Colour Splash Challenge

Colour Splash Challenge #146

Color Splash Challenge

This week, we are asking you to create using . . .

Black...White... and a 'Splash' of Lime

I had quite an interesting time doing this card. First and foremost, LIME is one of my favourite colours! I love all colours but somehow, LIME always gives me a very refreshing feeling each time I look at it. 

Make my heart filled with LIMERY LOVE. :) 

So, when I first thought of the colour LIME, somehow, PEAS just stucked in my head. Thats how I came about the Twin Peas in a Pod.

I have twin boys and during then, you hardly get any cards for Twins. So it was great doing the card! Hope you enjoyed your visit here.

Have a blessed day! *hugs*

CR84FN61 Week 2

I must say, I really love this theme combination. It just reminds me so much of the Warm Beaches.

For this challenge, I thought of making a CD Birthday Card using some of  Ursus and Bo Bunny's papers. My materials are very limited. So most times, I'll have to simply cut out the patterns (like the 'swirl') ad hand written the words.

Please excuse the little mess here and there and the bad photography. :) Working towards a better quality camera! Hope you had an enjoyable visit here. 

Have a blessed day! *hugs*

Happy Birthday word was handwritten.

Butterflies and  little flowers are punched out.

Swirl is cut out.

Retro Sketches #26

Retro Sketches #26

I love the simple sketch but as simple as it may seem, coming up with a simple design wasn't so simple after all! :)

I love Ladybugs alot. I find them so cute and adorable. So I didn't want to miss the chance to put them on here for this design.

I hope I didn't miss any part of the sketch! :) And as I am limited in my materials, I always try my best to make do with whatever I have. Please excuse the roughness in the finishing. 

All in all, I had an enjoyable time doing it!

Hope you enjoyed your visit here too! Have a blessed day! *hugs*
