Another Hand Letter Design that I want to share with y'all

This one using lyrics from a song called "LIFE" by Hillsong United from Wonder Album.

I love how the design turned out but I am not entirely happy with the colouring. 

My pen has ran out on me and I have to use black colouring pencil which not the best

option for this one. 

Hope you enjoy this and catch ya later...

saying Hi...

Hi all....

thanks for visiting here eventhough it's been a lil' while since i updated my posts. It's been a hectic couple of months. Also made a short trip back to Indonesia for 2 weeks for some personal engagements. 

Anyway...I will be sharing some of my handmade items. I will be featuring them 1 on each post during the month of November and December. Some of the item i don't have any photo of it. Most are being done in a rush and no time for photo.

Shall I start with one in today's post and hope you like it...

This one I made for a friend baby shower. The funny thing is she had a premature labour on her scheduled day for baby shower celebration. She gave birth to a beautiul baby boy on early morning and we gathered around 11am for the baby shower instead we celebrated the birth also. The awesome thing is she released from the hospital for 1 hour to come to her own baby shower....LOL

This one is a plain onesie i bought and using my Silhouette, created the sentiments...

 Also made diaper cake parcel. The theme for her baby shower is mustache and cookies. I made the cupcake from singlet+baby socks.

Thanks for looking and catch you again, soon!!

Flowery Birthday Blessings

Another time...another card...

Welcome back and so glad to have you here with me!

This card is made for a friend who will have birthday coming up. She loves flowers and I used this old (retired) stamps from SU!

I love the PTI "The Sweet Life" Stamp Set but I remember a retired SU stamp (A Rose is a Rose) that I was initially thinking to sell was sitting nicely inside my stamp cupboard. Why buy a similar one where you can achieved same beautiful results with your old stamp?? I was doing a happy dance with that light bulb moment. 
Now....I am definitely keeping this set for sure!!

Using Crumb Cake as card base; Colour combination: Pink Pirouette, Certainly Celery, Old Olive, Rose Red; Background using Paper Smooches Set; Sentiment using Verve Stamps

Thanks for looking...

Uplifting

I don't know what to put for a title on this post. But i know for sure that i needed some uplifting since i was so sick for the whole week. 

Colours definitely gives a great effect to uplift any situation. In my case...these 2 colours i used on my card are the ones that have deep impact on me to get / feel better. Whenever i am under the weather, am tend to eat more greens (haha...) and orange somehow always gives me the refreshment feeling that i needed. With that said, i am using those 2 colours as the main colours for my card.

 I would love to enter this card to play at Make It Monday #27 Papertrey Ink Challenge (Custom Stripped Ribbon) inspired by Nicole Heady (thanx Nicolefor the inspiration). I don't have copics marker to make the custom ribbon so i used SU! markers instead. It works great! Following what Nicole did to her kraft CS and inking my kraft(Crumb Cake) CS too with white ink.

Stamps: For the Graduate, Studio Style (both PTI)
CS: Certainly Celery, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake (SU!)
Inks / Markers: Whisper White Craft ink, Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery(SU!)
Other: Certainly Celery GG Ribbon(SU), Apple Green Divine Twine, Green Rhinestones (Kaisercraft), Sizzlits Lots of Tag Label 1 (SU!)

and oh.....this card is going to 1 crafty friend of mine...(hope she likes it!)

Have a fresh great weekend,

Another Bday Card for a friend

Hi again...

Another Bday Card that i made for a friend who lives overseas. Hopefully by now she has received the card. 

I did a bit of hand stitching for the front of the card. It's been a while since i add a stitch accents on my creation. If i remember correctly last time i did any stitching was on my scrapbook layout. I used to stitched up on most of my scrapbook page and now i am back to my old fave and incorporate it to my cardmaking.

Anyway...anyway....here is my card. Do you see the pinwheel? oh...i am in love with this pinwheel...my newest fave thing atm. Too bad this designer paper is retired. The Tea Party collection from SU! is fun and kinda shabby. My fave paper that i used a lot. Lucky that i did stock it up.

June CCC

Hi there peeps...

It's been a while (feels like it) since i do any challenge. This card of mine will be joining June CCC over at Lily Pad Cards. 

I initially plan using a clothes line theme. Half way through i just realized that i actually needed to send this card to someone. Unfortunately i created a card for baby shower with my friend's coming baby shower in mind. Anyway...i then save the card in a safe place to continue later and starting on a new card for CCC. 

I am trying hard to stick with clothes line theme and finally i decided to combined it with friendship theme as well. Hopefully it makes sense to y'all....ahahaha...

Here is my take and hoping that whomever received this would be delighted with my card. 

Here is the inside look. Just a simple one to leave space for writing.

Excuse the pics....as you can see i took the pic at night time but it will do for now....LOL!

Supplies used:
CS: Pretty in Pink, Crumb Cake, Whisper White (SU!); DSP: Raspberry Tart (Retired SU!)
Inks: Early Espresso, Crumb Cake (SU!)
Stamps: Text objects (Verve Stamps)
Others: Pretty in Pink Taffeta Ribbon, Pearls, Scalloped Circle Punch (SU!), Inverted Circle Nesti, Blossom Twine (The Twinery), Flower Rub-ons {bought it ages ago in Indonesia. I think the brand is Stick It}

Happy Long weekend for downunders...

Make a Wish..

Yes....Valentine is over and i am not going to post anymore Val's theme card. I think y'all had enough of it. hahhahaha...

This card is made for a friend of mine. She is a fellow crafter living in Jakarta. Her actual birthday is in January (on Australia day to be exact...ahahahaha) but then i haven't make a post for it. I thought that it will take a while for the card to arrive there so i am scheduling this post to be up on mid february.

anyway....here is the card and the inside look of it.

As i was about to writing down a message inside the card, i froze to remember that i haven't took a picture of it. So i cover my handwriting(luckily i only got to "dear____ part")

I have used retired SU! colour as well with concord crush and peach parfait. On the card front, the concord crush are embossed with Lattice Square folder (SU!) This embossing folder are my fave as it was love at first sight (LOL!) Those butterfly are cut with SU! embosslits (cut and embossed). Sentiments are PTI's. 

Hope the crafty b'day gal likes it. Til' next time..

Happy Valentine's day, friend.......

Love is in the air....It's Valentine's Day! Hey there, beautiful...

I found out that my friend (Tane) were going back to Indonesia like couple of days before she went. She came from a town called Cirebon in west Java. I got thinking that i could probably ask her to bring a little something for my crafter friends back in Indonesia. Fortunately, one of my Indo's crafter friend (ka' Dwita Siregar) lives in the same town as to where Tane is going. by the way...I asked Tane and she said she is willing to bring those goodies back with her. (YAY...thank you so very much, Tane!)
oh...i almost forgot to thank ka' Dwita.Thank you ka' for your help in picking up those goodies from Tane and bring it to Jakarta for the get together.

Some of my Indo crafter friends are going to get together on the 15th of Feb right after Valentine's day. I was thinking to make them a valentine's day card and lil' goodies for them. 

Since i got very lil' time to make something, i grabbed cards that i have already made before that can be use for valentine's theme. I need approximately like 9 of those. Some of you might recognised the card from my Fundraising collection for Breast Cancer. Lucky for me it is can be re-use and match perfectly as valentine's day cards. Anyway...here is the cards:

And i can't think of something better to accompany a cardmaker other than "Embellishments". So i went and grab my newest stash and share the love with my friends. Here is what i packaged for them (not much just a lil' something)

I hope they had an awesome time getting together and sharing. Hope they like what i sent them. Happy Valentine's Day, My Friend!! and Happy Valentine's day to y'all!!
