Growing up is optional

Hi everyone! Hope you haven't missed me too much as i missed last week's upload when i went on a holiday to Bangkok! It was an amazing trip apart from getting sick when i got back and my boyfriend got food poisoning. Haha... we ate the exact same things except........ i don't like fruits so i didn't get tempted to eat his sweet (yet contaminated) honeydew. That's why he got food poisoning while i had sore throat and flu. If you people haven't been to Bangkok, it's all about shopping and eating there! Thai food there are so much nicer than the ones sold in Singapore. Not forgetting, it is really cheap to shop and eat in Bangkok. I bought kind of my 1 year supply of clothes (LOL!) and i can't wait to fashion parade in them. :p


So anyway, here's the card this week! Very fun and bright color for someone's birthday! I used Bo Bunny's Alora Collection paper pad for the entire card. Bo Bunny always has nice pattern papers but they are always so busy and (to me) kinda hard to coordinate and layer. I had to use an edge punch to make the layers look separated or it will blend together. Colored my favourite Mimi from Penny Black using Prismacolor Pencils. Sentiment from Amy R Birthday Sentiment rubber stamp set - which is so true! Be young at heart everyone!

Till then, see you next week!

Bright Fun Colors

I've got a colleague who loves the Hedgehog from Penny Black and thankfully, i love them too! So whenever she orders a card from me, i have a different hedgehog to present!

Whenever i do up a card, i will look through my 6x6 paper pads and see which are the once i haven't used for a long time. The papers used here are from Lawn Fawn's first paper pad - Bright Side Collection, and their designs don't get out of style! The bright colors are so pretty and i coordinated the colors of the present that the hedgehog was sitting on.

Till then, keep creating and follow me on instagram to get insta updates!

All About Cats

You have seen how the process goes! So here's the end products of the Cat cards I am suppose to make. 20 cards in total, 5 cards for each theme. Theme: Birthday, Thank you, Christmas and non-sentiment cards.

Wanted to keep the cats looking the same throughout the 20 cats, so i picked Penny Black's cat to work on it. Saved my time too, cause i can stamp a bunch and color all the way while working out the layouts in my mind.

There is a pull out tag behind the glassine bag. The sender can include a picture behind the tag!

Stamp a few paw prints inside the card to finish off the card.

Hope you got inspired to color some cats!
