MGC's Love Station

I wanted to contribute something to my hometown's church, Miri Gospel Church (MGC). What sort of things that I can contribute in? A-a-HA! Love station! where people can get lovely cards that created by Marlene. She been creating lots of amazing design in the past few months. So now I am joining her in this fun work:) So, I went to get the measurement and got started not long after she replied my message. Very efficient. I created 3 designs with different theme. I took out some of my old designs and modified the size and design. After few minutes, I decided to create a mini/medium size of version from previous design.

I embossed the baby shirt with polka dot background stamp but it doesn't really show in here. Pink and purple color for babies.


I stamped my own pattern paper with floral stamp and inked the edge of the card.


The finish products: 28 cards (mix colors) and it's ready to post

After I finish making all these cards, I created a small/slimmer version of christmas tag for one of my close friend. I'm excited how she/he (to be annouce) will react when she receive this. Hehe

shimmer all the way~

'To and From' at the back

That's all for tonight. Good night, peeps!! :)

Baby/Christmas's Days

For past few days, I can feel that I'm totally in baby/ christmas's mood. All my cards are all about baby's theme :) I think it's because my very own nephew is on his way to this wonderful world. I can't wait to see and hold him :)

#1 card: I embossed the background with the entire stamp set with VersaMark ink; and I also got the idea of combine two different colors of ribbon from other designer.
'Little Star'- close up

#2 card: Coordinate colors. I stamped and cut the elephant out. I drew the bubble out by myself.

shimmer at the bottom

#3 card: I sketched out the moon and cut it. I got this idea from a scrapbooking magazine. I like the outcome except the piercing is not in the straight line if you notice it. :p
#4 card: a 3x3"; boy version of angel. I gave him a blush-blush face as well.

'Fa-lalala'- close up

#5 card: a medium size Christmas's gift tag. Colorful brads and more shimmer on the tree. :)

'Bling-bling tree'- close up

I kept the ribbon long because people can either you can cut it short or tie it at gift's ribbon itself.

#6 card: I love the smiley sun, I love the scallop edges. Love it. And again, I embossed the baby shirt with dots background stamp by using VersaMark ink. Great idea for baby shower/baby's birthday invitation card.

#7 card: I'm playing with my new stamp set. I got this idea from another designer as well and modified it a bit. I wanted create the bite's edge, but failed. I will try again next time.

For the last card (#8 card), it's disaster because crystal effect glue fall off when I try to open the cap. Some of the glue just fall over the card. grrrr- . It's just... a disaster.


Finally, I managed to upload all the new projects/cards that I did. As usual, please feel free to drop me any comments or suggestions. It's time for bed. Goodnight, everyone! xoxo

Glazed Lime Cake

(I added a scope of ice-cream on the top and spoon the lime syrup over the cake)

Another baking's period within a week. Yes. I love baking cake. The cake did not turned out perfect. It turned out oily when it's still warm and worst part was the middle of the cake 'sink'!! :( I was so upset. I wanted to bake this cake as my friend's birthday present, but I changed my mind.. ummhmm.. I can't afford to embarrassing myself in front of bunch of stranger...hehe

the 'sink' :( need more practice. Surprisingly, when the cake cool down a bit (overnight), the cake doesn't taste so oily and yet my sister and cousin said this cake taste better than the blueberry crumb cake. I'm like huh'' really now...

If anyone try with this recipe, share with me :) no matter it's successful or fail, I still like to hear from y'all. Ohh... last but not least, for dinner, I baked pumpkin soup with puff pastry with everyone's name on it. Something special!!

This was my sister, and mine...err..I forgot to take photo of it. ///sowiee :p

Happy belated Mid-Autumn's Festival

This is how I celebrated this special day with my family. The rain was pouring heavily during that night and we had to queue for 15mins to get seats. The service was good, the food was good. Overall, we had a good good night :)

The appetizer

All of us were hungry and once we got our seats, I just ordered what attract our attention the most. Hehe.. We ordered barbecue grill set. Our table was running out of space to put all our foods on. Haha..

Seafood kimchi soup

After that, I suggested we must get at least one mooncake to celebrate the festival. So, after dinner, we went to a chinese grocery store near by to get a box of mooncake.

We didn't get to carry our lantern because of the heavy rain. So, yeah. We all had a great night :)

Happy belated Mid-Autumn Festival, peeps!! :)

Post It Note Organizer

I've been thinking what can I make for my cousins in KL. So, I came across the idea of post it note since they spend most of their time in office. This is what I did in one night. Great ideas and fun color combo to work with. I spent quite a lot of time on design (other than that, it's easy to make tho) but I'm very happy with the outcome:) Hope they will like it.

Specially made for my cousin brother. He requested to have his name at the front. So, here you go, Quan. Hope you like it :)

Post It Note Organizer #5

more shimmer (p/s: if you notice it, the 'i', is spoiled :( I'll try to fix it up)

For all the organizer at the above, it's open up-wise. For the following two, it's open side-wise.

Post It Note Organizer #6

bright color

the inside

Last but not least, the last one of post it note organizer that I made last night.

For your information, I'm kinda screw this up because I put the note pad and the pocket at the wrong side. So, whoever get this, please forgive me because you might have to write at the uneven surface. Sorry. I tried to take it off, but it won't allow me. Else, it will destroy the whole thing. :( sorry


I'll update the measurement tomorrow. I'm off to bed now and day saving is begun. So, for those in Australia, clocks forward 1 hour. Goodmorning/ goodnight, everyone!*yawn

.......................................................................................

UPDATED (5/10/09):
The measurement for the post it note organizer is approx 4"x 5" and for the hippo is approx
3 1/2"x 5"

I made mistake at Post It Note Organizer #4. The correct spelling is 'Qao' instead of 'Qoa'. I already fixed the problem at the card. Sorry, Quan :p
