the last day of January...

Wow! The end of January! What happened? I quess good times went by fast... Anyways, happy saturday! I made this card with Pretty Hat Anya for a good friend of mine. Just Perfect!

Have a great weekend!

Look back on yesterday...

It was Unity Hip Hop Day! I always like to take advantage of Thursday Hip Hop, at least do a challenge and make something with Unity. I haven't get the whole science down on Hip Hopping... I'm just slow and don't really know anyone... but I do like to pop in, at least to check out what's going on. Finally, I inked up one of my favorite stamp from Unity, got candy? I love candies. Hehe!

I did this for the Bright and Bold challenge! As usual, I went out of control with spica pens, glitter, and stickles. LOL!

Happy Friday!

more...

Happy Thursday! More on these papers, I just don't know what to do with them. So, I found a binder which I had for a long time ago... I painted it with distress crackle paint (frayed burlap), distress it some more with Tim Holtz distress ink vintage photo, add paper, Ian and a few flower. Not to shabby!

Here is what inside... I used the new Tim Holtz idea-o-ology mask and airbrushed.

And I made a Ghirardelli Box, there was a great tutorial on SCS, oh what fun!

I don't know what to do with that paper!

Okay, here is the scoop... I belong to a club called to the Paper Gang at my LSS (a club which meet monthly, and we tries out new techniques and products), it's a fun group, everyone is very nice. Plus, it take me out of my comfort zone. Go Challenge! So, for the month of December, I got shrink film, rub-on, and these paper. I sat there and starred at them for many nights... Just don't know what to do with these paper. Finally, here is a card that I made for the mft sketch challenge with the leftover paper. It didn't turn out bad at all. I like it.

A better day...

Today is a better day! Work was horrible yesterday, the computers kept on crushing... It's amazing how much we depends on modern technology. Plus, someone decided to share their cold with me (I don't know who, but just want to say thank you very much. LOL!) Anyways, no more complaining. At least, I have a day off, have some chicken soup and just taking care of the cold and resting. When I checked my mailbox today, how exciting... I recieved this beautiful card made by my friend Rose... Thank you, thank you. You are the best! I feel 280% better, hehe!


Since I feel LOVE, I made this card with my Dress Me Anya. I used my new Koh-i-Noor colored pencils. I love them too... I added some *bling* design on her top with my gel pens (copper). And I can't resist the hearts.
love, {hugs}

Kung Hei Fat Choy!

It's Chinese New Year! The year of the Ox. I wish everyone good health, great fortune, and prosperity.

So, what am I going to do? It's past 11pm, I want something yummy... There, I grab a Skinny Cow and start thinking what to do. I wanted to ink up some more of my new valentine stamps: Milkshake and Dessert first, both stamps were calling me.. (yeah, how am I doing? my stamps are calling me! Just kidding. Don't worry, I'm okay. LOL! See, this is what happened what I want dessert... haha!)

Just a very simple card. I used the scallop punches, copic marker, glaze gel pens, liquid pearl, and I colored the straws fuchsia. :-D

one page at the time!

Woohoo, I did another page. I am so proud of myself. :-D I only have been sitting at my craft room all day! I organized a bit, watch some TV, did this and that, everything else other than scrapbooking. LOL! At least, mission accomplished! Maybe tomorrow...

Kennebunkport, ME. Such a cute little town. Beautiful waterfront and a town center full of unique shops and restaurants. My hubby and I had a great times there. Wonderful memories!

Finally...

I haven't scrapbook for soooooo long... I'm so behind! My trip to Hong Kong 2005. These pictures are taking from the famous Flower Market in Kowloon. At the Flower Market, dozens of flower shops, all different variety of flowers and plants... you named it, they have it. My personal favorite bamboo and orchids. I kept this page quite simple, no stamps/blings/flowers. I figured to start simple with a no brainer page. I am hoping this weekend, I can get a few more pages done.

HHH Friday!

Yay! I just received my January KOM, I love this set, the stamps are huge.... And he is my favorite... He is super cute and it's just screaming for bling and glitter! Stickles, here I come. Hehe!

What happened to my date (with my craft table)? I got called in to work :-( Oh well, at least I got to make one card... Maybe tonight!

I have a DATE!

Ian is just super cool!!! I made this for the SCS color challenge last week. I used the cuttlebug number collage & the scallop punch from SU, and dressed up Ian with this "cool" outfit. I love the colors! Doesn't he look great?

I just got the new Unity January KOM, tgf Angel and Mermaid Anya, and the Koh-i-Noor pencils... I'm so excited! Later, less talking/blogging, I have a date with my new stuff. LOL!

Until Friday.

more issue with CHOCOLATE

I can't get over with all of chocolate/dessert sayings from the new Amuse release stamps. They are totally awesome! I am totally insane... I got Bernice for this one, it matches perfectly.
Stay tune... I need to ink up more of these new stamps.

Face off...

The Greeting Farm (tgf) vs Amuse !!!

My two favorite stamp companies (not to mention that I love a few more...)


Ok! tgf Geisha Anya, say no more. She is just gorgeous! So elegrant. I love pink and burgundy red, but never thought of putting them with olive green. Thanks for SCS color challenge!

And this awesome quote from Amuse. "Man cannot live on chocolate alone, but women sure can. -author unknown". Hehe... So true! So true!!!

Need to make more...

... addicted to the new released stamps, need to make more..... zzzzz! Need to got to sleep, work, maybe clean up all the SNOW.... we got almost 10 inches today! I need to move to Hawaii. LOL!

Another one that I made for my friend who just brought a new 'love shack', so excited for them, a new home and a new baby coming soon (in May), tons of good news. I love it!



Do you like my little car? hehe.... I used the car w/tree stamp, I cut out the tree! SWEET!!!


Have a great Monday!

You TICKLE my fancy...

I love these little boutiques/shops from Amuse. This is my newest one Lingerie Shop, ohhhh... sexy!!! LOL. I used a technique that I learned from Jenn's class, I inked my floral vines with the essential glue pad, then covered with pewter ultrafine glitter, except my cat is wearing the left over glitter. :-D I like it... so simple, but yet very cool!

It's a GIRL!

Welcome Baby! One of my good friend had a beautiful BABY GIRL on Thursday! Here is a card that I made for them. I love this paper from imaginisce Baby Powder Bouncing Baby Girl, and this cute Clothesline stamp is from Amuse. So simple, but yet so sweet!

Congrats to a sweet baby girl and her "new" parents!

I love my Smileys...

Oh what fun! I want to say a BIG thank you to the wonderful Amuse ladies (Jen and Michelle) for sharing a super cool smiley website. YOU'RE DaBOMB!




Here is another card that I made! I ruff u.... Ohhhh, just too stinkin' cute, I love this new release Valentine stamps. Hehe... Hope you like them and Happy Friday!

Finally got my *new* Amuse stamps

Woohoo! I got my Amuse valentine *new* stamps, they are soooo stinkin' cute! I am so excited, I made this simple card for my mom for Chinese New Year. Off I go, need to make some cards with these awesome stamps.

Very classic...

A very classic and pretty outfit for our beautiful Anya.

Aloha!

Aloha! Here is a very sweet card that I made for tgf Anya Fashion Show entry. This winter has been yucky. Snow, snow, and more snow. Aloha Anya is just perfect. :-D She is so pretty with her coconut tops (covered with Tim Holtz distress stickles in walnut), I added more bling here and there with my spica pens, and I didn't forget about her pretty jewelry.

Aloha!

Going purple...

Just for you! I made this card for someone special who is in love with the color PURPLE. So, I figured to add a purple ribbon, blue-ish purple hair, purple eye shadowing, purple dress, purple tiara, and purple wand.

Have a very PURPLE day!

My $1 Pocket Planner

...front

..back

From $1 pocket planner... Now, it's priceless! I will carry this little pretty book for the next year. Haha!!! The paper is from the Landry Line Coastal Comfort, Hello Ian and Pretty Hat Anya from the Greeting Farm, the fancy border is from CTMH. And can't forget my pretty flowers.

P.S. I love Anya gold-ish pearl necklace, and seriously I think I have a thing with the red shoes!!

Hello Lily!

Lily the fairy, it's too cute. She is from the Pink Cat Studio. It is a super cool challenge, no stamp necessary, you just have to download Lily from the website, print it and GO! Here is the link http://pinkcatstudio.blogspot.com/2009/01/lily-fairy-contest.html. The deadline is Jan 13. You still have time!

Here is my entry. I am quite happy with it. I love the color (anything not green and red is good, LOL!) I found this paper with my stack of CS, it caught my eye. I used my nestabilities, I love those things, super cool. Then I colored, colored, and colored. Lily has a polka dot dress (I colored her dress with copic marker RV14 and dots were created by the colorless blender) And, I used my spica pens and lots of stickles. Hope you like it!

WHat? Bag Lady!

Who? Me! Nah... okay, I love my purses... totally a purse and shoes girl. I don't see anything wrong with this. LOL! So, when I saw this stamp set from MFT at my LSS, I must buy it. Hehe... I submitted this card for the MFT guest designer challenger for February, I might get lucky. Hehe... As usual, I went crazy on airbrushing. What do you think about her top? Not bad, huh? I was reading my January and February issues of Lucky magazine, I quess the watercolor floral is huge this season (I want to do sequins, but I don't think glitter will show too well on the picture), I also went BOLD on her shoes and purse. Oh la la! And the purses at the window, I quess "nude" color is the next big thing, so I sticked with the earthy brown purses.

Hope you like it!

No time!

No time for anything today! Don't you hate those days... but anyways, still need to get my "fix" (I meant cardmaking, LOL!) Here is my entry for SCS sketch challenge, a very cool layout. So, I stamped a few cute bunnies, colored them, added some Stampendous dot sparkles, doodles more dots, add a couple of flowers... can't find 2 brads to match, I used 2 yucky yellow brads and I covered them with lavender stickles. I was so proud of myself. LOL!

It's all about the challenge?

Another great challenge from SCS, such cool colors. So, not me! But I kinda like it. I missed using my Unity stamps. Tada! A strange little card made with the December KOM... A few punched flowers....

Happy Wednesday!

Glitter everywhere...

Today's try a new technique at SCS, super cool... Glitter, glitter, and more glitter! Hurray!!!
I just can't pass out this opportunity to use glitter. I used tacky tape to create horizontal lines, then I go sparkle glitter everywhere... Yippee! And I colored image with my colored pencils (OMGosh, I didn't use my copic markers). That's BIG!!!

Later...

I don't have a title today! LOL!!

Happy Monday! I don't have a title today.... I just sat here thinking for a title, my mind was just blank.... So no title, just sweet adorable Ian thinking about you! {hugs}

Sparkling red heels!

Happy Saturday! It has been really crazy at work lately... I need some therapy! The doctor called for a Dorothy Anya. A simple design is what the doctor prescribed, no extra buttons or ribbons. Just a natural color cs, 2 simple flowers, a bit of coloring, and her lovely *bling* red heels.

Enjoy! Off to play some Wii.

Love my...

Cooties!!!

Aren't they the cutest! Just too funny... I was just in Michaels the other day, checking out Christmas clearance sale. And all their rubber stamps were 40% off, so I decided to check them out. This "cooties!" stamp from All Night Media caught my eye! I love it! Got to make a card with them. Hehe!

Have a great "cooties" weekend!

Congrats to The Greeting Farm!

I hope everyone had a great New Year Day! As for me, I have been really tired from work... I didn't do much partying, but I did relax :-D Finished my homemade calendar (my friend's late Christmas gift. LOL.) and check out the new digi-stamp from THE GREETING FARM...

Here it is.... Pink Poison is now THE GREETING FARM! If you don't know about it, you must check it out! http://thegreetingfarm.com/ Super cute stamps, and they now have digi-stamps too. I used mine today! Riding Hood Anya! She is just too sweet, and I used all my favorite things... Glitter and flowers!

Happy Friday!

Welcome 2009!

Happy New Year!

Rockstar Anya is just perfect to start out the new year.

What a great card sketch from SCS yesterday. Great challenge! Have a wonderful New Year Day!
