Thank You card

I love browsing thru everything Donna has created in all her collection and I find them very interesting especially her choice of colors. This time round, I wanted to play with the butterfly die called Wonderful Wings (drop dead gorgeous) and while browsing the papers, I came across (again) this pretty paper in the Spring In Bloom collection. That paper is filled with butterflies at the corner and immediately I knew what to do... a thank you card! Imagine the light bulb above my head. Lol.  

The rose creations die is one of my fav flower from Donna's dies. The new Smooch color is perfect for the flower... swoon!

Hope you enjoy today's card :)

Friendship Layout

It always feels good to be back at this blog. Love what my co-DTs have been creating lately HERE. Today, I am going to show you what I created. This time round I got to use the add-on kit called Meadow Lark. I love the fall colors in this kit but too bad, Malaysia doesn't have fall. So I decided to use the colors for a friendship layout. I love it!! (at least to me. lol)

That beautiful mom-to-be, Cindy is one of my good friend and I am glad that we met in this creative industry. She is sweet and very down to earth gal who loves eating! My kinda gal *giggles*

Hope you like today's post and I'll be back again (real soon)...

Have a good week everyone!

For Cindy...

I love any type of wooden products simply because I can alter them!! A couple days back I decided to alter this cute sushi tray that also acted up as a shadow box. Perfect for a special friend called Cindy Lee who loves butterfly to bits! 

Created this using the Studio Calico Oct "Field Guide" kit :) The sides of the frame is covered using washi tape. Pretty cool eh?! Totally loving the colors too, pastel and pretty... and everything nice!

Do check the store for new arrivals and other pretty things. Till then, we have special guests in the house! So catch ya later alligators....

Mix'd Media Background Tutorial

Since young, I was taught to express my gratitude or simply to utter the word "thank you" to those who helped, encouraged or inspired me! I know Thanksgiving is around the corner & what perfect way to document my gratitude to the one I adore and love everyday... well , besides God! 

So I decided to create something fun + inspired by Fall colors using Donna Salazar's new Mix'd Media Inks & Smooch Spritz too = a mixed media background. Yaays!

Here we go...

First, get a cardstock and turn the Mix'd Media Ink around and start to stamp randomly.

Next, get a toilet roll and use Smooch Spritz to spray to create more circle.

Next, continue it with applying some gesso on the brayer. Roll it on the cardstock.

Tip: to give subtle look to the gesso, you can spray water over the gesso before rolling in on the cardstock.

Here is how it will looked like :)

To create more fun to your background, you can do some bubble stamping!

I love a lil Smooch dripping on my layout, so I took out Zutter's clear acrylic to use as a tool. I spritzed Smooch + water on it. 

  

Tilt the clear acrylic & allow it to drip it to your background. 

Tip: Spray water to dilute the Smooch.

To paint the branch & leaves on the artistic collection, I used a paintbrush along with Mix'd Media ink + Smooch to paint :)

Here's the finished layout....

This is my Mr.Handsome who never fails to love & provide for me from the moment we met. I love him dearly!

I am back...

Hey peeps!! I am back again at my blog and it feels good :) Of course what's the point of coming back without photos and updates rite? Hehe. Today I wanna share with you what I created for Scrappin Studio using Studio Calico "Glee Club" kit & also a sneak what I did for my first assignment for Basic Grey :)

Hello... my name is Jessy and I am a foodie or also known as food face. lol. I love good food & of course good drink too! When I was in Singapore last month, I got to try this awesome drink called "Koi"... oh snap, it was so yums! The whole drink was filled with pearls (edible ones ok?) and I truly enjoyed it! Pretty similar to bubble tea but it is special in its own way! So this time I decided to document this special-yummy-drink :)

Heart the Basic Grey : Out of Print collection :)

Alrighty, for Basic Grey I have a created a layout based on a layout by Pia Lopez. The DTs were asked to scraplift Pia's layout & personally, I had a blast with this one ...
