Card: Love You

I created a shaker card with sequins and ovals in pastel colors.


This card was inspired by the sketch and inspiration titles from 3 challenges:

1)               The sketch was from the sketch badge of Sparkle & Shine Challenge TWO: Sketch sponsored by Winnie & Walter;


2)             The color combo was from Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge March 15 Jelly Bean;


3)             The oval loves was inspired by Jusk Add Ink #255 “Eggs or Ovals” and Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge March 15 Jelly Bean.





I die cut two stitched ovals to make a heart shape. Then, I added another small shaker heart shape onto the big heart. 

Some of the sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh - Sparkling Clear. The oval stitched tag is also from Pretty Pink Posh. The stitched rectangles are from Simon Says Stamp.

Card: Hello Spring!

It was in the middle of the night. The kids just slept. I sat in front of my craft table and came out with this card. Oh, It seemed like I'm saying Hello to Spring!



The color of the card was inspired by the inspiration photo of Waffle Flower Challenge – March 9-22. 



For the sketch, I used the sketch badge from Sparkle & Shine Challenge TWO: Sketch sponsored by Winnie & Walter



I made it a 3-layer card in order to create dimensions by using screen print and form squares. I used Waffle Flower's Rock My World stamp set and Rock My World die set. I die cut the flowers, inked the flowers with dapper and stamped the outline of the chalk-like painting flower. I adhered some of the flowers to the base, some on the screen print using foam squares. 



For the sentiment, I used mini rock and chalk-painting stroke from the Rock My world stamp set to create a butterfly. Then, I stamped the 'Hello' onto it. Can you spotted the rocks? Isn't it lovely? Aw... I love this Rock My World stamp set! 



Of course, the sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh - Sparkling Clear. The oval stitched tag is also from Pretty Pink Posh. The scalloped stitched die is from Mama Elephant.

Layout: Hello Cutie

This is another layout that I created during my stay at my in law's place. 



Same as the layout in previous post, it was inspired by Jot Magazine's March Mood Board and Elle's Studio Sketch Thursday 03.05.2015. 



This time I sprinkled the paint instead of spraying. I hand-stitched the grids.

Layout: Hello Mr Punk

At the very last minute, we changed our plan to go back to my Hubby Jay's hometown earlier. Without much time, I packed my craft bag in a rush. Because of that, I left out my photo to scrap at home! :( 

Here's what I created during my stay at my in law's place (of course I added the photo after I reached home):





How I get inspired? 

First, the color combo. They are from Jot Magazine's March Mood Board. I got to know about Jot Magazine through Instagram and I browsed through their website. There and then, I came across their March Mood Board... chosen by Jot Girl, Anna Allan. 



Aw... I straight away fall in love with it. Such an inspiring and gorgeous piece! Isn't it?

The color of the mood board reminds me the paper collection of Elle's Studio - Cameron. This was the first thing that I packed into my craft bag.

For the sketch, I was inspired by Elle's Studio Sketch Thursday 03.05.2015.

Layout: YUM Let's Eat!

What is so yummy? 

Raw broccoli!!

Huh?! Yes, my Little Hang just can't wait for us to cook the broccoli! He grabbed and munched. Really #tamchiak ! So, I made an layout about that. 

This layout was actually based on Elle's Studio Thursday Sketch 02.19.2015. The sketch was so inspired and beautiful!





I used Elle's Studio products except for the washi tapes and twines. And it was quite fun to try out diagonal shapes in the layout, as well as hand-stitched even though it was just a straight line.

I was the randomly selected winner for this sketch! :)

Card: Live Laugh Love & Enjoy the day!

That's the end of Chinese New Year (15 days of celebration). Lots and lots of visiting and gathering with family and friends. Tired but enjoyed! Memorable!

Aha...! At last I could sit in front of my computer and had some 'me time' after my kids on their bed. I came across Waffle Flower Challenge – Feb 23 to March 8.


The pillow is so lovely!!! I love the watercolor effect, layering, geometry ... 'Ding'... It just got me inspired and made two cards with just one Waffle Flower stamp - Rock my world. (By the way, I don't have much Waffle Flower stamps and wish to win some :p )

Here's the first card:


I CAS the colors, shapes and little geometry drawing in my card. I did some layering on stamping. I added some TEAL mist. I hand stitched a triangle on my card. I am so in love with hand stitched recently. Should say all the while but never take the initiative to stitch till recently. ;) Then, I added brad, enamel dots and button. 

How about my second card? Here it is:


I stamped the mini rock repeatedly by using 3 different colors. Then, I stamped this wishes, "Hope that you slept like a ROCK Enjoy the day!" . Oh, I seriously love this wishes. I inked the edge of leftover triangles from die cuts and added them to the card. Enamel dots were added to the triangles. Done!
