Lacking of motivation

In just the past few weeks I've been trying to stay at craft room and make some cards like what I usually do. Each time I realize it's time to make some craft goodies, it always not the case. Lacking of motivation :( Haha.. but I thank you for my friends who make orders for Christmas's card. Before I flew to Melbourne for Laurence (my newborn's nephew) full month celebration, I completed 20 out of 35 cards and I took the remaining 15cards to Melbourne just to do final touch-up. But the worst part was I forgot to take photos of them.. Arghh. So far I only got 1 card to show it to you guys. 1 card!!! I'm such a slacker nowadays. Please forgive me.

I specially made this card for my colleague, Danniel who requested a anniversary card for his 4 years's girlfriend, Charlotte, who also my colleague as well. I'm glad she like it :)

The only thing she commented was the envelope. I'm currently using those post-letter envelope for most of my orders. She would prefer those we normally purchase from gift store or card section. It makes sense. Envelopes does effect the whole quality of the card as well. I really appreciate her suggestion and I probably will change it to those thicker envelope for my future orders :) to look more professional. Anyway, more updates are their way.

Happy Birthday, Marlene

Happy Birthday, Marlene!!

Dear Marlene, I did a little prayer for your birthday, and here's my prayer:

"On this your birthday, I pray for your happiness, of course, but also for a greater sense of fulfillment in work, an ease of communication with those you love, and a sense of satisfaction in all that you have accomplished. Above all, may you rest secure in the knowledge of God's constant love and care for you, personally. Lord, I also prayed that our friendship will grow stronger and last long. In Jesus name, amen. "


So sorry that didn't manage to call you last night. Anyhow, I wish you all the the best and we shall see each others again, soon :). Happy Birthday, once again!!

Lots of love,

Michelle

Fun with craftcardstocks

Hey there! All these cards are made with SU's craft cardstocks and some coloring, cutting, stamping. I made all these cards yesterday in a super HOT day- 37 °C. So, please bear with me if you seen any boring design. Enjoy!



* I have this idea of selling my cards at Esty. I tried to apply at all sort of art market/exhibition but all got rejected. What they said was they already got similar products. hmm.. Should I?

M's Sketch #3

I was chatting with Marlene yesterday and we tried to compete who have the messier craft room. I said mine. I told her that my papers are all around the floor and bed. Seriously. I need to be more organize on this.

She was laugh out loud and told me that I should participate M's Sketch #3 to compete with sweetpeas around the world to see who have the messier room ever. *evil smile . Somehow, I felt a bit funny to show people out there how messy my craft room is *cough I just received my new stamp set from PapertreyInk this morning *wheee. It was so much to play with this cute stamp set. So, here's my card for this sketch :)

I rotated the sketch from portrait to horizontal layout. I added some glitter on the tulips as well after I colored them with my old school's marker pen. After that, I drew some outline with my white gel pen. To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed with my faux stiching on this card. It didn't turn out what I really want and due to the warm weather, I can't really concentrate *blame the weather.. haha Oh well.. Hope you girls like it :)

The tale of Desperaux

     Images taken from here

Now. Maybe some of you have already watch this cute little mouse's cartoon, 'The Tale of Despereaux' last year but I just came across this movie when foxtel shows it recently. This cute mouse with unusually big eyes attracted my attention. Then, I got the chance to watch this afternoon. 

I must say I'm a kid person. Love it. I would highly recommend you guys/girls to watch together with your kiddos or even Big kiddos *wink . I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Unlike so many children's film these days. :)

::here's only 1 thing 2 do, 3 words 4 you - i love you::

I dedicate this song to my darling parents, brothers,sisters, girlfriends and boyfriends out there :)

Lyrics to 1234 :
1-2-1-2-3-4
Give me more loving than I’ve ever had
Make me feel better when I’m feeling sad
Tell me I’m special even though I know I’m not
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
Barely getting mad
I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
Its as easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4
There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you
Give me more loving from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
You’re the best that I’ve had
And I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4
There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1 2 1 2 3 4
There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
1-2-3-4
I love you
(I love you) I love you
