I love my NOODLES!

Good day! I finally have a chance to ink up my favorite food.... NOODLES!!! I love it so much that I lived on them during college, and our my friend called me the noodles queen who lived in the noodles house. My cabinet was always packed with noodles in it (I still do!). I added vegetables, wontons, eggs, hot dogs, anything would do. I know I'm weird. LOL! And when I found Two Scoops Rice Designs, and I saw these bowls of noodles, I have to have it. Come on, it's NOODLES!

Check out Two Scoops Rice Designs at http://www.twoscoopsricedesigns.com/, they have lots of cute stamps. Since I love food, so I love the foodies. I want the veggie set, filipino food set, sushi handroll set, kakimochi & popcorn set and the donut set. I should just say I want them all. LOL!

I think it's NOODLE TIME... have a wonderful day! Smiley from millan.net

Two simple cards...

From Amuse.... Their motto: "Think Simple, think Amuse!"

I love making simple cards, but they are quite challenging, when it has rule.
This is the Amuse Lounge Challenge #4. We have to use minimal embellisment (one or none)and minimal layer (no more than 3).

I was determined to use this rocking chair... This reminds me of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store. I'm not sure that Cracker Barrel is nationwide? But just in case if you are not familar with Cracker Barrel. Cracker Barrel is cool restaurant which serve great breaksfast and lunch/dinner too... and it's also an old country store. Plus, outside of the store/restaurant, it has a whole collection of rocking chairs. They are awesome, you can sit/rock/chill while you waiting for a table or your friends.
Smiley from millan.netPink Tricycle? Absolutely!!! Pink makes everything better. Hehe... This is for Glenda's Random Amusing Challenge! The theme is green and pink.
Smiley from millan.net Have a wonderful "PINK" day!

Double Dipping?


Happy Birthday Unity! This week is their 1st year anniversary! Check it out at http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/. They are having challenges, games, chats and prizes too. I used the sketch layout from Card Pattern challenge (http://cardpatterns.blogspot.com/), and the colors from the Unity Anniversary color challenge. Sorry, my colors might be a little different. Unfortunely, I don't have any Stampin' Up paper. I tried to match it as close as I could. But, either way... I love this card! Two of my favorite things: candies and stamps! I love it!!!
Thanks for stopping by. Smiley from millan.net

Love Beantown!

Hello, another great day in New England! Yesterday... it rained all day! I quessed it's really April shower which will bring May flowers!

Oh by the way, Happy Earth Day! Millan.net

Just want to share a cute card I made for my DH a few weeks back.
And share some cool pictures with you, DH and I took a day trip to Boston last Saturday, the weather was cool and cloudy. But it was fun, and we had lots of yummy food, and we brought some home too.

So, if you happen to be in Downtown Boston or Faneuil Hall area. You have to look for one of these cart.... This little cart makes the BEST roasted cashews (also peanuts and almonds). You can probably smell the wonderful nutty flavor a mile away!

Nope, they are not paying to say that... it's that good! Smiley from millan.net


Faneuil Hall Market Place... one of my favorite place in Beantown, a BIG HUGE food court.... if you don't know me... I LOVE FOOD. This place has everything! Smiley from millan.netYummy dessert...
Bubble tea... (yep, they look funny! But they are really tasty! The little pearls are tapoica.)
Well, can't be Boston without seafood...


Are you hungry yet? I know I am!

see-ya! Smiley from millan.net

Under the water?

Good day! Today is a Ocean kinda of day! Since you all know that I will work for stamps...Smiley from millan.net One of my friends had asked me to make some samples out of this stamp set for her. And of course, I said YEAH! Why not! Another reason to play and make cool cards! I love it, these "fishies" are too stinkin' cute!

Shocking I know... I love the little sea horse, the sentiment is just perfect for it!

And the card below, I created the "aquarium" effect with hair gel. I learned that from SCS tutorial a while ago, but never tried it.... TADA!

Smiley from millan.net
And this is the inside of the card.
(this is Take 2... I made one, it was perfect, but I stamped the wrong stamps which said, "wading for you".... OUCH!)


Thanks for looking and Have a wonderful day! Smiley from millan.net
