In my huge stash of cards (anyone interested to buy some? :)), I am always lacking in masculine cards. So, here's a fun card I made for my friend's upcoming birthday. Nuts and beers - CHEERS buddy! :) 

I did a gold emboss on the sentiment and added stickles as the foam.

Here's how dimensional the foam is (and yummy?)

So, have an awesome weekend. Keep calm and have a (root) beer :)

Well, it's always summer here for me but SPRING is HERE for my friends in the other part of the world. I made this card using this awesome boots stamp.

I colored them using my Copics and I was inspired by the promo posters today. The colors of spring is so pretty, isn't it?

Here's how you can get this stamp for FREE!!

And here's my FINAL card for today :)

When I saw Sabrina {fashionista}, I knew I had to have her! She's just so gorgeous and with that yummy tiered cake? Oh! She's a must have.

I made this card for a friend who's birthday is coming up soon, and yes! She's a pretty lady :)

I added Pink Glam stickles on her dress and colored her and the cake with my Copics. Doesn't the stickles look so glamorous? :)

This card was inspired by this month's Unity {be inspired} color challenge. Such pretty colors! Come play along :)

I have BIG news !! If you have been following Unity Stamp's FB page, you may have saw this there.

YESSSS!!! I made it to Unity Stamp's DT and I am still kinda in shock. I woke up to this AMAZING news yesterday and am so thankful for the opportunity given to me AND for everyone who believed in me. I just want to say a big THANK YOU to everybody. I do read each of your comments you leave on my blog - and though I don't reply to each of you personally, just know that I really appreciate it and LOVE all of you! THANK YOU again.

I made this for my Project Life (using Unity Stamps of course!) and ... truly, "no one is too old for fairytales"! :)

Have an awesome weekend everybody :)

Hey. It's the weekend and I am off to a baby shower! I have this gift bag for my friends - who are expecting a baby girl this May. I took a plain paper bag and just decorated it with patterned paper, washi, felt flowers and of course a card :)

Here's a close up of the card I made last week :)

Happy Weekend to all of you! :)

Today I had the privilege to play with the Prima Paintables. You can get these at Scrap-n-Crop.com.  On their blog today, I am sharing a tutorial on how to turn these plain (but still pretty) Vintage sheets into beautifully colored sheets with two techniques! :)

My first technique is painting with a tinted gel medium mixture (using Golden's soft gel medium) which will create some texture and gloss.

Here's the close up.

And the second technique is painting with Distress Paints - creating a watercolor look.

And here's the close up.

For the step-by-step tutorial on this, please click HERE.

Today I am delighted to be guest posting on Little Panda Crafts. MJ contacted me and asked me if I'd like to be on her blog - and of course I said yes! Do check out her blog because she makes the cutest things!! :)

On her blog today, I made an easel card for you with some easy step-by-step to make one! It's my first time making one and trust me, it's not as difficult as it looks. :)

Easel cards are pretty for display but when it is close shut, it looks like this. This makes it easier for you to mail it. 

The sentiment is by Unity Stamp {Strength and Dignity KOTM 11/13}. I stamped the flower which is also by Unity Stamp/Webster's Pages {Beauty} in some gold ink.

The gorgeous butterfly is from Prima and I added some Heidi Swapp color shine around it.

For the step-by-step tutorial, remember to visit Little Panda Crafts.

Today, I have a fun project made. A "popcorn" candy treat bag and a cute card. Wouldn't any friend be delighted to get this bag of goodies? :)

The cute utensils stamp and sentiment is by Unity Stamp called "Sit Eat Enjoy". I did some gold splashes on the background with Heidi Swapp's colorshine. (In case you haven't noticed my obsession with gold lately .. haha)

This cute popcorn box, I turned it into a candy treat bag and added a handmade paper bow on the front.

Hope you enjoyed my project for the hop. Now, drop by Chris' blog and leave her some love. In case you get lost, here's the blog hop order again.
