James 1:12
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
I managed to make cards today. These cards used a lot of embossing, stamping, buttons and cutting. I also used faux stitching at most of these cards. I like all these elements combine altogether. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for my Christmas stamp set to arrive and can't wait to play with it. :))
'You're a hoot'- This card accidentally turned out with Christmas color theme.Does it looks weird when the owls with these color combination??
'just because I care'- I embossed the hearts with clear embossing powder and and some faux stitching around the top.
'Jenny'- specially made for my friend, Jenny for her b'day. Hope she like it :)Glued the pattern papers on the chipboard letters and cut it out.
'on another year of Happy togetherness!'- a retro design for this.
Last but not least,
'Hello'- a 3x3" card. Should I take off the ribbon and leave the cute squirrel alone??
Sadly, on Thursday, July 23, 2009, Yasmin Ahmad suffered a stroke and remained motionless, seated, she was resting her head on the table, with her hands cupping her face, while attending a meeting with local artist Siti Nurhaliza and her husband and Media representatives for an undisclosed project at Sri Pentas, TV3. Before the meeting, she spent some time with Media Prima's group creative director, Peter Chin and was reported to be in a jovial and relaxed mood.
She was rushed to the Damansara Specialist Hospital where she underwent a neurosurgery procedure to reduce the swelling in her brain. The operation was a success however her condition was critical but stable. Bernama quoted her brother-in-law, Zakaria Zahari, as saying that Yasmin had suffered a stroke and hemorrhaging in the brain[8].
On Saturday, July 25, 2009, more than 48 hours after the surgery, Yasmin Ahmad succumbed to her injury and was pronounced dead at 11.25pm[7]. On Sunday, July 26, 2009, Yasmin Ahmad was laid to rest at the USJ 22 Muslim Cemetery in Subang Jaya, Selangor. Her husband, Abdullah Tan Yew Leong, their immediate families, hundreds of fans, friends, industry colleagues and personalities gathered to bid her farewell.
Below are some of her fabulous works throughout these years:
#Tang Hong Ming

#Here in My Home
No offense but I didn't know our malaysian Vjs, tv presenter, singers, etc etc can sing that well. Nice songs yet it still deliver its msg straight forward.
#Family
#Funurel
I cried (almost) when I watch this. Darling, I won't complain anymore even though you snore while I'm still awake. At least, I know you're still alive.
Usually, people use pork mince for rolls but I want try something new. I used beef instead of pork mince. I mixed it with water chestnut and carrot. Guess what?! My nori beef rolls turned out way too salty. Goodness :( I added way too much of salt. Seriously. I was so disappointed. but yeah... I try to be careful next time when I adding the salt.
Steam it for around 8 minutes. After that, slice it then pan fry each of them. I still got one whole plate left over. I guess I have to use this and make it to another dish. Nori beef rolls + white cabbage +soup. I think this way can take away the saltiness of the rolls. I'll try it tomorrow.
Before I jump to my comfy bed with my hugee comfy blanket, I would like to share the cards that I made just then and last night with my fellow readers. My progress on making cards are getting super slow after a long holiday. I was able to make 2-4 cards in an hour time but now no more. I think is because before a long break, I used to draw sketches to have an idea on how to do the cards. Without sketches, it really slow down my speed a lot.Anyway, these are three cute cards that I made with Taylor's Beary Special stamp set. It's a sweet thing to play with. My sister claimed these cards are too cute. ><>
missing some glitter. I'll apply once I able to get some glitter glue
A cute bear is inside a pinky bag
Do you guys like the outcome? I spent quite a lot of time to decide which pattern paper to use, the layout..arghh. It's time for me to do sketches again before I start making it. Seriously, the speeed is sloooowing down a lot :( can't think.can't decide
Last minute added in the glitter flowers at the bottom of the bear. Or else, it will kinda empty
I think that's the update for cards. I made few but didnt manage to take photos of them before I sent it to friends. SOrry. I promise I'll try to update more on my blog. Good night for now on. Sweet dreams!
Some of friends knew I'm working and they don't believe it. YES! I'm working at Mamak, Sydney and I'm enjoying it. The team who I'm working with are awesome and yet the food~ Ohhh.. SUH-WEEET!I've been working here as a waitress since May and my duties are take orders, clean the tables, deliver orders, etc. Not too bad. I still can handle it. Mamak was actually closed down for 3 weeks for renovation at end of June. It just reopened recently. In less than 3 weeks of reopen, you will be able to find people/ customers blog about Mamak and our foods. You can click here, here, here, here and here to read some reviews that found on the net.A MUST-GO's place if you like satays, roti canai (all sorts of roti), fried noodles, ais kacang, currys (chicken/fish/lamb/vegetables) and lots more. You can come with groups of friend and share the food, it's a nice place to hang out. Besides, you can also share the bill with your mates and yet you still get to taste different kind of foods. It's a pretty good deal. I got both photos from Chocolatesuze .

Finally, one month holiday is about to finish. I just got back from Melbourne this afternoon. I went to baby-sitting my two very cutie nieces. They both are very smart girls.
From lest to right: Caris ( Younger) and Caelyn
Uni start tomorrow. Anyway, I'm going to post about the gifts that I receive for my 24th's birthday and some cards that I made during past few weeks.
Sweet gifts from Li-Ya and she made me a big birthday card too :)
Puzzle set and Guess's clutch from the boyfriend :))
Ear rings from mummy :D
More gifts from Marlene. Yes!! This time is a bit different because she designed two stamps for me. Show it to you guys next time. Hehehe
I didn't manage to do much cards this month. It's been a crazy month for me. The bf came to visit, Hillsong's conference right after the bf left, few days to rest, then flew down to Melbourne for a week. That's about it.I used quite a bit of button on these cards and I like the outcome.
I made these cards before I fly to Melbourne. I used the wrong paper from the front. Too light and that's why it's not very solid :(
'You're a hoot'- This card accidentally turned out with Christmas color theme. Does it looks weird when the owls with these color combination??
'just because I care'- I embossed the hearts with clear embossing powder and and some faux stitching around the top.
'Jenny'- specially made for my friend, Jenny for her b'day. Hope she like it :) Glued the pattern papers on the chipboard letters and cut it out.
