TWO CARDS

Happy Saturday everyone!! Wohoo! I just can't believe how quick the time flies! Just a couple of sleeps more and it's already December!!! And I'm so looking forward for our holiday in the Philippines as we can get to see our family and relatives (and friends. of course!) back home!! We'll celebrate Christmas and New Year there! YAY!! How's that?!!!

Anyways, let me share you some cards that I made lately. I have received my Whiff of Joy stamps from Bec few days ago and Charlotte is so gorgeous that I couldn't help but ink her straight away and use her on these cards!

The first card is a Christmas card but I used the colours from the recent CC246 challenge.


The next one is very Christmasy and I used the Out of the Box technique here. (Charlotte's hair passing outside the frame). This challenge is from TLC247 challenge last week. (talking about being late here, lol!)

That's it for now and I'll try to post more later after doing my Saturday chores! Hubby's home early today so that means "badminton" for the family later! Wohoo!!

God bless us all!

TWO CARDS

Whiff of Joy Challenge over Bizzy Becs

Hi everyone! Hope you're all feeling better and doing well wherever you are right now. We're having another very cooolllddd autumn here in Sydney atm and I guess winter came too early.
My friend Bec is currently having a Whiff of Joy challenge over her blog and me and the rest of the DTs made some inspiration cards for the said challenge. Here's my WOJ Willow card:



Aside from using Whiff of Joy image, part of the challenge is to use a lace on your card. For the full mechanics you can visit Bizzy Becs blog so you can also see the candy that's in store for the winner of this challenge.

I coloured my image with Prismacolor pencils and odourless solvent. And while the cs is still in the die, I used my chalks for the background. I did like the outcome eventhough it's my first time to use chalk on my project. My lace which is a bit peachy and yellowish in colour is from Spotlight and check out my smallest flower. It's shimmering isn't it? Yeah, I got my first ever Shimmerz (Butter Cream) and used it on this one and I soooo liked it!

Here's a closer shot..

Look at that! It's so stunningly shimmery!!! I ordered this one along my ODBD stamp set from US and it's amazing how this Shimmerz adds a beautiful touch on anything. Guess I need to have the other colours as well, LOL!

Thanks for looking and for leaving lovely comments on my work. Just want you to know I appreciate it a lot! Thanks heaps! Gotta go now as I have to prepare for our Bible study tonight.

Blessings to all!

Night of Navy, Kraft and Sage Green - CC201

Good Morning from Australia! Hope you are all doing fine. Today I want to share with you a card which I finished at 3am. Yes, and I only had 5hrs of sleep because of this. lol! I was really into making this card for the Colour Combo Challenge at SCS (CC201) that's why eventhough I started late, I still pursued to put it all together.




This image is Willow from Whiff of Joy. It actually came as a surprise when I received a parcel from Bec and she stamped me some images including this one. I coloured her with my Prismacolor pencils with Odourless solvent using blending stumps. There a lot of firsts in this card, actually. It's the first time I used my Cuttlebug Floral Sceen embossing folder (for the middle panel). I've purchased this a month ago and decided to use it for this card. Another first is the Cuttlebug Vintage dies which I've just received yesterday. Bought it from ebay last Sunday and delivery was super fast! It's also my first time to colour a "Willow" image and to emboss on my Labels One background. And yeah, first Kaiser Pearl Chino to use (for my Prima center).

I'm still finishing 2 cards more which hopefully, I will be able to post this afternoon before DH arrives from work. I can't squeeze in to make cards when hubby's already here as we normally go out just after a few minutes of him taking a rest to buy stuffs or just drive around. Soon as I finished my laundry (the machine is on the move atm, lol!), I will start stamping.

Let's all thank God for another day that He has blessed us. Praise Him for everything!

Hugs to all,

Night of Navy, Kraft and Sage Green - CC201

My FIRSTS: Whiff of Joy and Hanna Stamps

Blessings to all of you my blog readers and fellow bloggers. Hope everything's doing well with you and your families. I wasn't feeling well yesterday especially during afternoon and I really feel so blessed because eventhough my husband was tired from work, he took over my kitchen duties and prepared dinner for the family. He's really a blessing!

When I got a bit well, I managed to finished 3 cards (yes, 3 cards and I'm still a bit unwell lol!). I was able to inked up my FIRST Whiff of Joy stamp which I won on a blog candy I think, more than a month ago.

Here's Charlie and his dog on a card patterned after SC120 and CC172 challenges over SCS.



Here's another Charlie card I created using my DCWV Christmas stack as background. I purchased this stack last year, I think and has been my favorite eversince. (wishing I could use it on everyday cards lol!)

Oh, and have you noticed that I made a "snow scene" on these cards? Hahaha! Finally, I plunged into sponging and making a "scene" lol! But for now, it's just snow scene until I master it. ;-) I used my Soft Sky ink pad for sponging which I bought just last week. (well, I actually bought it for that reason..sponging and making snow and sky scenes).

The card below is just a simple card which I was able to make using my leftover cardstocks and supplies. This turned out to be simple but cute (IMO lol!) and a good way to use those leftovers so nothing would go wasted.

And of course, here's my other FIRST ..Hanna! I bought this more than 2mos ago (if I'm not mistaken). I just didn't know what happened why it took me so long to ink her up. Well, maybe I'm just waiting for the "right" timing..I believe this happens to you as well. Like, you have purchased a stamp or stamp set and wouldn't be using it for a couple of weeks or months until your Mojo tells you to use it on a certain project, right? I know, I'm not alone hehehe!

I coloured her with the colours on my background patterned paper (Dena Designs Christmas collection). I Cuttlebugged the bluish cs from DCWV mat stack and pop dotted the main image. See, I used the "snow scene" again?!!!

Thanks for looking and will post more later after I finished the rest of my chores.

God bless you!
