Another SAD DAY

2010-01-09T20:42:00.004+08:00

Losing a loved one is really sad...and losing your own child must be the worst thing that can happen. Years ago, I shared the same grief when a friend lost her baby, only after a few days of birth. Till today, I can remember every single detail of the funeral and how tough it must have been for the family.Just a week ago, someone I know went through the same fate. While everyone was looking

Gift Wrap Ideas

2009-03-07T22:28:00.011+08:00

If you run out of time to wrap a gift like a book with a nice cover or something, try nice ribbons and a tag...I think it is presentable and nice. I hope the birthday girl likes the gift as well as the "wrapping"! If you think the tag looks familiar...I recently made this and posted on my blog earlier. Looks much better with the added brown color ribbon and matching the color of the book cover

The use of Basic Grey Praline and Cherry Cordial patter paper is matched for this piece, layered over a pink card stock. Matching ribbon is also used across the card to distinguish the very different look of the two pattern paper. A little flower

Here's the final accordion card for this season. This is a very floral design piece. The front is layered with this dark brown leafy print pattern paper. I have also included a 3D tag that says "celebrate". I used the same pattern paper for the back of the accordion card so that the design flows through when opened at the back. Next is a close up of the greeting page that says "JOY" as well

Works of junior artists

2008-12-05T16:00:00.009+08:00

Here are the original works by two junior artists (my two lovely nieces).One of the card is mainly paper cut-outs in different shapes, layer over one another to give a more 3D effect, while the other has less paper cut-outs and with more drawings. I love both pieces as they showcase originality, pureness and basically...art through the eyes of children.

Christmas 2008

2008-12-05T12:39:00.020+08:00

Using vintage flourish printed pattern paper, I have matched with a simple striped paper. Using a simple matching ribbon, I have decorated this card with a metal buckle. All materials are made of heavy card stock and good quality pattern paper. I really love this piece as it gives a very mysterious victorian feel and because of the colour tone, it has a very distressed effect as well.

Christmas 2008

This is a very special pattern paper I managed to purchase specially for my Christmas card collection 2008. It's pale green flourish print has a contrasting oriental brown print. Not only that, there is a shiny bronze strip across. I didn't want to add on too much additional embellishment and only added the pale blue ribbon to make it like a gift.

Christmas 2008

2008-11-16T11:15:00.009+08:00

A combination of scrapbooking and stamping technique for this piece. I have stamped the holly leaf and the word 'joy' on a tag using a chalky stamp ink. The effect is blurry, misty, subtle and soft looking. I have also used this green fibre on the left of the card that gives a very dreamy look. I have included some shiny clear gemstones on the card as well to add some sparkle. I hope you

This is the joy of stamping. I have only used plain card stock and have stamped my "Happy Holidays" sentiment all over the background. I then stamp a tree, cut it out and embellished it with crystal jewels! Simple, elegant and it's really appealing to me. I hope the recipient loves this piece.

A very simple yet elegant card in neutral tone. I have embossed the cream coloured cardstock with flowers with sparkle embossing powder, so the effect is a subtle floral print on the paper. I have also used a strip of black paper to make it look a bit lacy, layered with ribbon. Included a tag that says "Happy Birthday" as well.Measures 6" X 4".
