TGIF...

Hello hello and TGIF!  Are you ready for the weekend?  I sure am... Not sure what I do yet?  Maybe just being a coach potato and craft all day... hehe!  Well, I was totally in the mood for a little of mixed media action, but I kind of want to make a card too!  So, I took out my Dylusions ink pad, Heidi Swapp color shine, Faber Castell gelatos, stencils, and create away... And viola!

I used this gorgeous stamp from Sweet Pea Stamps, it's from the Ching Chou Kuik's collection called the Serene Night.  So so pretty, love her!  I also decided to play along the Sweet Pea Stamps One Sweet Challenge, this month's theme is see some spring colors. 

Hope you like it and have a great day!

Early Mothers' Day card!

Hello hello and how are you this lovely day?!  I have a day off today...  To start out, I had Chinese dim sum with two of my good friends, then I went to the scrapbooking store to pick up a few things (yes, just a few, I behaved, hehe!!), then went clothes shopping with my dear friend, and the best yet... I got a chance to craft a bit!  Yeah!

Here is a simple shaped card that I made with Sweet Pea Stamps Ching-Chou Kuik Carnation of May, since Mothers' Day is coming up really soon, I figured this stamps is just perfect!  And why not to play along with Sweet Pea Stamp challenge blog, One Sweet Challenge, the theme this month is to use a shape card.

Thanks for stopping by and blog you later!

Weekend...

Hello my friends and happy weekend!  I have a card to share using the beautiful stamp called Black Rose Fairy from Sweet Pea Stamps.  I wanted to try out using some dark colors...  I guess it's okay for the first try... but I had lots of fun creating the background paper...  I used some Distress stains in shabby shutter, broken china, and milled lavender to color the watercolor paper, then I used the script background stamp from Impression Obession, then I used the a stencil and dabbed it with purple acyclic paint.  I added a few more things...  Viola!  Hope you like it!

A CAS card...

Howdy and how are you? Any plans this weekend? I'm just chilling at my craft space. I was sitting at my craft space twirling away... I was having a dumb "craft" moment... So, why not do some blog hopping. I hopped over to the Crazy 4 Challenge blog, and they mentioned today is National Chocolate Chip Day!!! Woohoo! I decided to use the color brown just to celebrate. Hmmmm.... CHOCOLATE!

I kept the card simple, but I has been insane about creating background lately... So, I distress the white cardstock with distressing ink pad in mustard seed, wild honey, and tea dye. Then I stamped beautiful script background stamp from Artful Illusions with Versamark, covered with Perfect Pearls. The main image is from Sweet Pea Stanps ching-chou kuik's inner tender.

Copics: E000, E00. E04, E11, E23, E 27, E29, E30, E33, E35, E39, E 53, E99, R11, Y23, YR23

Inking business...

Happy weekend, hope you are having a great weekend.

Sorry I was slacking on Friday, no crafty blog post. I'm sooo addicted to my new toy.... playing all the silly games on my iPad2. But, my craft table was calling me and I was dying for some crafting time. So, I decided to do some major inking... I took out all the TH distressing goodies (Tim Holtz stains, ink pads, embossing powder, and perfect pearls mist) and just played away. I used this gorgeous stamp from Sweet Pea Stamps. Viola!

Hope you like it! Off I go again, hehe!

Sweet little bears!

Awww... aren't they so so sweet and cute? I love these bears from Sweet Pea Stamps and this is one of the Elaine Cox collection, sheet 16, plate 102. Bear hugs to these cuties!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Happy 4th!

Happy 4th everyone!! Just want to pop in and say hello. And how about celebrate some with crafty colors of red, white, and blue! Hehe!!! Sorry, I did cheat a little bit with light blue instead. My bad... should of match up with some cardstock before coloring away.

This is one of the new set from Sweet Pea Stamps Samantha Rawling's Little Sweethearts sheet1. She is so so cute!!! Hope you like it!

OMG!!!

What a challenge!!! I was chatting one day... my friend of mine told me she needs a calendar to put on her fridge.... and of course, I said no problemo, I can get you one! So, I asked her what color does she like? She said: "Crayola GREEN". I was having sooooo much trouble. I can't find any design paper that l like... then which bling do I want to use? What about flowers? What color to use? Then it's too yellow... then too green...

Well, here is the end result! I hope she likes it, if not... I quess I'll make her another one.
