Tissue paper flower :)

I was blog-hopping or blurfing earlier and saw a tutorial on how to make flowers using tissue papers :D
They were so beautiful but I forgot to bookmark the page I went to...sigh... thank God I remembered the method (it's quite easy actually).

A friend of mine wanted me to make a card for a special friend of his. He wanted the colours red, white and pink and a flower (ala the purple flower I made some time ago) on the card.

I made this... Hopefully he likes it. I based this card on 2S4Y's sketch #36. I used Text Style over the PP and distressed the sides using chamomile and chai ink. Then I sewed the edges to give it more interest. The 'ribbon' strip was made using Retro set :) I stamped it over white cardstock. Looks like a strip of ribbon, ey? :)

Can't stuff it in an envelope, though. It'll totally ruin the flower... Still thinking of how or what to put the card into.... any suggestions? :)

Halloween-themed Bday Card

My dear friend ordered another card from me. This time she wanted a Birthday card with Halloween theme.

At first I thought of making one with witches and ghouls but that would be too scary for a Birthday card, no? :P Well, I would have drawn cute ones :)

Then my PTI stamps arrived and this idea came to mind :) I based the card on Pam's Super Sketchy Sunday Day Day 218 and bingo, here's my card! The colours are based on Halloween and so is one of the 'embellishment' :)

I am loving it more each time I see it. Hope that she will like it too :)

I distressed the edges of the curves, embossed the sentiment and added glossy accents to the stamping :) It really pops in real life!

This week began great here!

Firstly I celebrated WCMD with lotsa cardmaking, chatting with Cindy on MSN, getting things up and ready on my blogshop and then.... I find out that I won some stamps over at Get Sketchy and then I am one of the Top Trio on 365Cards this week!

How else can a week be better for a person who absolutely loves making cards?  :P

Will be busy these few nights with some orders and data analysis :) Hope to share my cards with you soon! :)

PTI WCMD Challenge #4 : Australia

The last of PTI's WCMD Challenge :)

Inspiration #4 is Australia. The challenge is to use dots or masking technique... you know, like how the Aborigines does it in the caves?

Here's my take on it :)

Quite tiring dotting all the images.. should have chosen masking... :P
