WOW! 

Can you believe that it's almost the end of 2015?

Well, there's still time to share this card with you -- which I have made for my DT post at the Unity Stamp blog.

I have used the KOTM 11/15 "Best Year Yet" -- which is filled with so many pretty images and sentiments!

I used the lamp shades image and colored it in with my Copics, then fussy cut it.

I created my background with a Heidi Swapp stencil and some Viva Decor Modeling Creme for that added texture.

It's Boxing Day and time to open up the presents! :)

But before you do, I'd like to show you my final project for Trendy Twine as a Little Sister DT using the Holly Berry twine to make a cute winter hat ornament!

I saw the idea here, and thought to try it out with twine instead and it turned out so cute! Looked like I knitted it right? hehe.

Thanks Lesley for having me as a Little Sister! I enjoyed every bit of it.

Now, go have fun and open up all your goodies! 

Have a wonderful day.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Oh yes, it's finally here. 

A beautiful day to ...

.. celebrate Jesus.

.. spend time with your loved ones.

.. be merry and jolly.

.. and eat until you cannot stand! :)

Here's a card I made, which was inspired by Kristina Werner.

I hand-painted the plaids with my Gansai Tambi watercolors and created the background.

I lined the white lines with my Sharpie -- then added some embossed gold foil, stickles and flowers!

Have yourself a merry little Christmas and a wonderful new year ahead!

Hello! :)

Today Unity Stamp is one of the sponsors for this extra special hop and I am glad to be a part of this!

Advent Calendar Extravaganza is -the- festive event of the season!  This ‘hop with a twist’ was dreamed up by Taheerah Atchia and features surprise destinations each day! Joining in the fun with Taheerah are over 60 special guests – each serving up some fantastic Christmas inspiration! Just like an Advent Calendar, you’ll never know where you’re going to be visiting next until you ‘open the door’!

So for today's Christmas project, I made a card using Unity Stamp's Reason for the Season stamp set - which is just perfect for the season don't you think? :)

I created a nativity scene with Mary & Joseph with Baby Jesus and some sheep :) I handcut some cardstock to mimic grass since I do not have any die cut for that. I colored everything in using my Copic markers and added some Distress Glitter on the star for that extra shine.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

Thanks for stopping by and have a joyous holiday with your loved ones!

Happy Monday! :)

It's just 4 more days to Christmas and for The Cutting Cafe's Inspiration Time -- I have made a pop up card.

With the fun Assorted Pop Up cards template, I have made this Christmas presents pop up card using some pretty DCWV papers.

I also added sequins and some Christmas word stickers to decorate the card.

And to finish it all up, a red bow at the top! :)

Do check out The Cutting Cafe's Christmas section HERE for more kits available.

Happy holiday crafting!

Happy Monday!

Today I have a fun Z-fold card for you. 

It's my first time making it coz I wanted something special for my boss who's leaving -- so why not a Z-fold card?

I used some DCWV paper from the "Happy Day" stack and added some paper flowers at the top to look like a garden. 

I then gold embossed this sentiment from Unity Stamp SOTW "Here's to new beginnings", which I think is perfect for the ocassion. 

Here's how the card looks like when I lay it out flat!

Have a happy week ahead :)

Happy weekend!

The Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers blog hop has started and I am hopping in with my card :)

Although there is no winter where I am, this stamp by Unity Stamp "Beauty comes from being yourself" KOM 10/15 kit -- has sent me into the holiday wintery mood! :)

I colored her in using my Copic markers and just using some pretty DCWV Christmas paper with glitter to finish the card up.

Thank you for stopping by and wishing all of you a merry jolly holiday this season.

For my first card, I stamped the beautiful dressform & sentiment (from the Dec 2015 KOTM kit "Crazy, tragic, magic life) onto some white cardstock. Then I created my ombre strip using some Mama Elephant pigment inks {rainwater, sweet lilac, tutti frutti}.

For my next card, the pretty girl image and sentiment is also from the Dec 2015 KOTM. 

Seriously, this kit is filled with so many pretty images --- you may just want to sign up to grab it!

Click HERE for more info.

So for this card, I stamped the girl and sentiment onto some white cardstock. Then I stamped the girl AGAIN onto some scrap cardstock -- fussy cut it -- and adhered it as as mask!

Then I used TCW stencil "mini daisy clusters" and lots of Tim Holtz distress inks {scattered straw, spun sugar, shaded lilac} to blend it all in.

And for my FINAL card for the day, it's FUN coz it's time to PAR-TAY!! :)

I created the background using Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real brush pens and then creating the bokeh effect using Mama Elephant pigment ink {buttercup) and my mini ink blending tool. 

I also added some new gold-foiled glitter washi tape I just bought on the sides of the card.

OK, now for the PRIZES!!!

Happy Sunday!

I am sharing with you a fun card I made for my Little Sister post over at the Trendy Twine blog using some Holly Berry Trendy Twine

Christmas is just around the corner and since I had these felt mittens in my stash, I thought it would be fun to make a mitten garland! I glued the twine to my card and adhered the mitten on top of the twine. For the ends, I used separate pieces of twine to tie the bow, then adhere it to make it look as if it was one long piece! :)

I then added some punched snowflakes from some gold glitter cardstock to add the extra bling.

For the background, I embossed it and stamped a Merry Christmas sentiment with my Unity Stamp.

Need some Christmas twine? This is just my absolute favorite!
