A friend is like a good bra...!

Made something fun today, planning to send this to special friends who get my jokes. It's not hard to find a friend but to find a friend who understands you and won't get offended by your goofiness requires some luck, fate and effort. I'm grateful I have some close friends who accept me for who I am. People who first know me will take me as a quiet and very serious person (thanks to my introverted personality) but once you get to know the inner me, I like to tell jokes too and laugh hard. Life is too short to be serious all the time, don't you think? I used to be very responsive in conversations and make people laugh with sarcastic reply but after living in the States for a long period of time without these close friends around to have fun with, I kinda became even more serious and less humour in me (lack of practice I guess). I miss my friends back home, miss their company and laughter. So here it is, I dedicate this silly card to you Chin Ling, Oi Wun, Ivy Cheng, Li Yong, Qiao Shuang, Chew Fah. Thank you girls for your support and love all these years, wish I could hug you right now!

P.S: Sorry for my old rusty brain if I missed your name, please know that you have always been in the deepest part of my heart! :)

Happy Birthday Card Using Tri-Blend Markers

Is anyone crafting in this cold weather?! I don't feel so good today, not a big fan of cold weather. But instead of resting in bed I decided to color this cute bunny (I know it's not Easter yet although I wish it was). It's just too adorable to not color it and using the Tri-Blend markers it's even easier to color the flowers in the pot.

I don't usually use grey on my card but I want to try something different so I will experiment using colors I wouldn't normally use in my future creations. I hope you like this card!

Twinkling Trellis With Pretty Peony

My first card using both the new Create-a-Card Twinkling Trellis die and the Sara Signature's Pretty Peony paper crafting collection. This adopted the shaker card concept because there is no sequins in it even though I added a layer of clear acetate for the dimensional look.

The background was created using the Gemini FoilPress machine, the stamping plate used is called Grande Dot. This foiling machine is the best, it makes no errors, every foiling is perfect. The flower is a stamp from the Pretty Peony collection, it comes with a coordinating die so you don't have to fussy cut them. The stamped image is colored with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers.
