Happy birthday to you.. Happy birthday to you!

How fun to give this colorful rainbow card to somebody and make their day, right? 

Well, you can make one of your own too, because I have a step-by-step tutorial on how to make this card. :) Click HERE for the tutorial.

Here, I am using the "Watercolor distress block stamping technique" and the cute rainbow stamp is by Unity Stamp "Sending happy your way". I've put some purple vellum as the background and handwritten the "Happy Birthday" all around the image.

Have a colorful weekend ahead! :)

Recently, I have this obsession for cars.. Yes, cars!! So today's post is dedicated to all the car lovers (and surfer dudes + cyclists too!).

I made this kombi for my hubby - in his favorite color from the SVG Cuts Surf Shack kit - using the German Bus. FYI, this piece of decor doubles up as a gift box! :)

Noticed the bicycle behind? I added that on with the surfboard on top. CUTE right? :)

This is the side view. I added some metal railings on top :)

Oooh, and a personalized license plate too :)

If you're interested to order your very own customized Kombi, feel free to drop me a mail! :)

Unity Stamp's Stamp of the Week is awesome because every week there will be a brand new stamp and you can get it if you sign up for it HERE.

Here's this week new stamp!

I paper pieced the fruit slices to have that extra pop and added some "bubbles" coz it reminded me of a fizzy glass of lemonade!

Have a great week ahead ... *SQUEEZE*!

It's a GOOD time to SMILE BIG and PROUD because Unity Stamp is celebrating it's 20,000 Facebook Fans!! *woo hoo*!

Today is a LONG post and an exciting one as we have 20 AMAZING new releases!! Can you believe it? TWENTY?!!

So FIRST up, here are some SUPER CUTE new itty bitty! I LOVEEE these and I made some for my Project Life album. Perfect for 3x4 journaling cards!

Look at this DONUT.. How can anyone resist? :)

And what goes perfectly with donuts? COFFEE! :)

Next up, I've created a mini layout with yet another new itty bitty called "Smile Big and Proud". The camera is just amazing don't you think?

This stamp set would be perfect for a new baby, a new home, new job, new pet, graduation, promotion.. WOW! The possibilities are endless!

And Finally .. a fantastic image by Suzi Blu called "Gypsy Warrior"! How cool is that right? 

The sentiment/border is from Nov 2013 KOTM "Strength and Dignity". 

I really enjoyed coloring the flowers in her hair. Just so pretty!

It's Inspiration Time at The Cutting Cafe and today, I have a flower block for you :) A cute little box perfect for a gift hidden inside!

The box is from the Block Set. This set is way awesome as it contains 4 different block sets when you purchase just 1!

Here I did a little mix-and-match with some others kits.

The chevron zig zags is from Egg Goodie Box and the huge flower on the lid is from Layered Flowers

Here's an aerial view of the flower which I have added a flower resin in the middle. 

Thanks for visiting. Now, go shop and get the most awesome cut files from The Cutting Cafe :)

Tomorrow is a friend's wedding and I've made this dainty box with some bling and bow, to go along with a card I made some time back.

The sentiment used is from the beautiful kit "Generations" by Unity Stamp

YAYYY!! It's finally the time that I reveal that I am officially on Cutting Cafe's DT! Do you know that Regina makes just the CUTEST cut files?

Today I made a fence tulip card using the Tulip Card Set for Mother's Day which is just next week. 

Doesn't the tulips looks so PRETTY?? I misted the embossed fence with Heidi Swapp's Gold color shine for that extra shimmer and added those cute little bows too.

Make your own awesome customized cards today using Cutting Cafe's cut files. I'm sure your mommy would love it :)

Guess who's having a workshop? Little ol' me!! :) It's my 2nd time teaching at www.Scrap-n-Crop.com and this time, I wanted to do something really different. I've always wanted to make a shadowbox for our home - so why not teach you how to make one for yourself too?

Here are the details for the class

----------------------------------------------

Date: 24th May 2014

Venue: Scrap.Abode [Link to Address]

Price: RM180

What you will learn: Create a shadowbox with 3d elements using Tim Holtz Distress Paints, Prima flowers and embellies, Graphic 45 papers and much more!

Email admin@scrap-n-crop.com if you would like to join before all seats are taken up! HURRY HURRY! 

So, it's time to say "See you again". It's never easy to say that to a DT team - but Jenn, Trish and the rest of the DT ladies had been such an amazing bunch of ladies --- which made this even harder.

I've been on Sister Act Card challenge DT since July 2013. That would be almost a year now. 

** I've challenged myself "digitally" by making cards with digital stamps but it turned out fun!! 

** I've met new friends (Please keep in touch!) and very talented ladies.

** I've made a card every Friday since July 2013 (Oh yes, my stash of cards is HUGE!)

And most importantly, I learned and grown through the year.

***

So here's a card for your ladies on SACC DT.. Thanks for being so sweet to me!

Thank you ladies and it's not goodbye. It's See You Again! 

Much love.
