Roses on Paper Challenge #24

Good morning fellow stampers! Well this is my very first Roses on Paper Challenge card, for the record. :) I've seen this challenge upon visiting a fellow stamper's blog. And what a perfect timing as I've just finished a Christmas card using Tilda (by Magnolia) and it qualifies on the said challenge (to make a card with Christmas theme)! Yay!

Here's my card:

This lovely dsp is from My Mind's Eye. Very non-traditional colours yet gorgeous to look at and those were the colours that I used to colour in my Tilda (which is a RAK image I received from an online pal). Sentiment is from CC Designs AmyR Christmas Verses stamp set. I finished off the card with these cute snowflakes created from Spellbinders' Create a Flake 1, sponged with Soft Sky ink then sparkled with Martha Stewart Crystal Fine Glitter.

Thanks for visiting and let me know what you think with my first Roses on Paper challenge card. ;-)

Have a blessed day!

Colourful Christmas Take TWO!

Good morning to you all! Today is a very lovely day here in Sydney where I am. Ths sun is shining bright but the the weather is just fine, not too hot. ;)

I have a take two on my colourful christmas card which you can be seen on this post. The first card was seen by a friend and asked me to make her a card using the same colours and materials. Well, honestly, I don't or I never made two cards completely the same in my entire stamping career! LOL! I don't know, I'm not just so comfortable doing that. So, since it's a request, I had no choice but do it. :) I used the same materials but of course made some "twists" to make it somehow different from the first one.

Here it is:

And a closer shot...

As you can see, I used a different lay out here and a different sentiment. And this is more sparkly than the first one I think. This lovely dp is from My Mind's Eye Colourful Christmas "Falling Flakes". Gorgeous colours! Too bad I only had a page of it. (Note to self: buy papers in twos next time!)
Thanks for the visit and I'll see you on my next post. Off to stamp now.
God bless us all.

Thank You Card

Happy Monday everyone!! Thank God for another Monday! And right now, I wanted to share with you a "Thank You"card that I made as requested by a churchmate. He asked me to make this card to be given to a couple who will get married on Dec and his services (he covers weddings and such on videos) were chosen and so he wanted to say "thanks" on a card. I borrowed the invitation from, him so I could somehow have an idea with regards to the colours or theme used.

Soon as I saw this invitation, I told myself to get the same materials that they used and just made a twist for the thank you card.

Here's the card that I made:

What do you think???!! I was actually about to do a gatefold but changed my mind and used a traditional style instead. I also did not do paper tearing but used a pearlescent cream cs to complement the paper used. There's no ribbon but I did dry embossing using my Cuttlebug Textile folder which I believe complemented the specialty paper. :)
Thanks so much for the visit and let me know what you think by leaving a comment or two when you get the chance.
Have a blessed week!!

BIRTHDAY Cards

Happy Friday everyone! Sorry, I was MIA (Missing In Action) these past few days. I had migraine for 3 straight days and I was so unproductive during those times. :( I'm always like this whenever there's a change in the weather and the early days of this week was so hot and that triggered my migraine. Hubby didn't go to work last Wed to look after me and the kids and he accompanied me to the doctor as well to have a check-up. Thank God, I'm well now.

Anyways, I will just share to you two of the birthday cards that has been ordered from me.

The first card has autumn colours. :) The card base that I used is a 290gsm cs which I bought on clearance in our LSS. The dp is from My Mind's Eye and the flower image is from Darkroom Door. Sentiment is from Jemac stamps.

This one's yummy! LOL! I used my Inkadinkado Cupcake stamps which I haven't been using for quite awhile now. Cupcake stamps were one of my first collections as they're so gorgeous and easy to colour with. The dp is from Basic Grey cupcake.
Be back with more cards to share. Thanks for the visit!

Sweet Birthday Wishes

Hello everyone! It's soo hot in here atm and we're having it at 38degrees!! That's why my migraine is slowly coming back again (I've just recovered this morning, gosh!)

Anyway, here's a card I whipped up as part of my orders which I have already delivered last Sunday! Yay! My churchmate ordered 15 cards, 10 Christmas and 5 Birthdays. I still owe him 2 of the latter though. :)

I didn't put too much embellies on this one as I want to take advantage of the beauty of the paper. I stamped the sentiment directly and just added pearls on each side of it.


Tilda was coloured with a combo of Copics and Prismacolor pencils with odourless solvent. I just took the colours from the dp (which is from Basic Grey Sultry) and adhered Tilda onto it.

Thanks for looking! Gotta grab some late lunch here.

GOD bless us all.

Birthday Card

Good evening from the land Down Under! This is my 2nd post for the day so kindly scroll down for my earlier post. I whipped this card about 3hrs before our Church Service yesterday as my friend requested me to make her one to be given for her sister's birthday.

This very encouraging verse is from ODBD Scripture Collection 1. It's stamped with SU! Old Olive (loaded with Versamark first) then heat embossed with clear ep. Cut with square Nestabilities and matted with a very thin SU! Groovy Guava (retired) then matted again with the square scalloped Nesties. The lovely dp is from K&Company Beyond Postmarks which I bought from Windsor Cottage Botanicals. I finished off the card with Prima flower and a paper rose flower plus 4 chocolate Kaiser pearls in each corner.

God bless everyone!
