    Hello! nice to see you again :)
    hope you're in a good health!

    Today is Thursday, it means another new challenge is coming at AI Factory! yipeeee... the theme for this week is Bright as Day! and am using Ella in the clouds image. I really love playing with this super cute Ella!! 
     

    And here's my card

    This time I'm creating a sliding card.. I folded the paper into a pocket then  made a window in the center (a bit to the right :P), I edited and printed out the clouds images on microsoft word, I created a sentiment "There's always a smile waiting behind every clouds". And since it's a sliding card (and I'm only using on side of the card) so I made a small space for a note on the left side, this way, you can still write down messages. I put the image on the back of the cloud so that when you pull the cloud out, Ella will appear with her cute smile :) Lastly, I put small beads on top right side of the card to make it a bit sweeter hehe.. Ella was colored with Faber-Castell coloring pencil and a bit of copic marker for the skin.

    Check out other DT blogs to find inspiration from their wonderful creations! Go to AI FActory Challenge to find out the details for this week's challenge and to upload your project. There's a very cute freebie image waiting for your creative touch :) And as always, you have one week to submit your project, deadline is by midnight 11:59EST, Wednesday, April 6th.  It is not a requirement for you to use the AIF images but if you do, we’ll be happy to see the outcome! :)

    Happy creating everyone! Hugs

    I'm still not feeling very well today but glad I managed to finish my card ;)

    Theme for this week's challenge at AI Factory is Under the Weather. I'm happy to use their image Little Doctor. They are oohhh sooo cute!! doctor, nurse, tablets, thermometer etc. these images are so perfect a get well soon project!



    here's my card
     

    It's a very simple card and very easy to make. well, I wish I could make a better one though :P I cropped the ambulance image and make a card from it. Inside I only printed out the sentiment and colored the background with Colorbox inkpad and draw some flower images too.. but the picture quality is not very good that you can't see the shadow of floral I made :P

    Hi Everyone!! Hope you had a great day today!

    huffhh today i was absent from work and my language course due to heavy migraine and to take care of few personal things at home :P It's been very long day and exhausting too..  But somehow, I can't leave my sketch book so I continue what I had started yesterday, after taking some rest this evening I transferred my pencil sketch to the laptop..

    I should have made it few weeks ago but I just didn't have enough energy :P So I'm wanting to enter my digi drawing on the CDAC Digital Drawing Contest this March and the theme is SPRING. If you like drawing or doodling, you can enter this fun contest by the latest March 31st. The winner will be picked by their members and have two levels, one is for professional and another is for amateur.. well, I choose the amateur seems perfect place for me :)
    So here's my digi drawing for the contest inspired by my beautiful cats..


    Well, I have to go to sleep now whilst I still have few hours to get rest before facing another hectic day tomorrow! Will write more soon, okay! Missing you all! Warm hug..

    Helllooowwwllll everyone! :)
    Hope things are doing great for you!

    Welcome to this week's challenge at AI Factory and the theme is Things with Wings. I'm using these colorful and Cute Owl Circle Tags!!! They are oohh soo cuutttteeee and I love them all!


    my Owl notebook cover



    some pages inside


    On this challenge, I'm using my scraps papers which have been piled up in my room :P and turned them into a simple A5 notebook. I cropped the owl images one by one and did image editing as well as notebook lay out on Microsoft Word coz it's the easiest way for me :P Then I put these images on some of the notebook pages.. For the notebook cover, I printed out one of the owl image and the "Hellowl" sentiment! :) For the finishing touch and to make the notebook looks sweeter ;) I only attached a small sheet of dusty rose scrap paper embossed by print dots folder from Cuttlebug and also did the same embossing beneath the sentiment.
    Go to AI Factory Challenge Blog for more details and to upload your projects. Don't forget to check out those wonderful "wow" creations form the DT to give you more inspiration! You will have until next Wednesday, 23 March, 11:59EST to upload your creations. You are not required to use images from AIF but if you do, they would really love to see it!

    So spread your wings and happy flying!! :D

    Hi everyone! Hope you’re all having a great weekend!

    Myself, I had a good time cleaning up my house this weekend and glad I got a help from my hubby  :) and now I’m just preparing myself for work day tomorrow! Yep, I’ve got tons of things to do on my list but before the morning comes, I'd like to upload my post! :)

    Glad that this weekend I had a little time to make a small gift box from my scraps papers and double tape container (I’m not sure what to say in English, I hope it’s correct). I’m using sunflower seed shell (now I hope I’m writing this correctly too). I like eating sunflower seed for snack and love it too much that it had succeeded drying my lips :P Not only I like the taste but I also like the shell too, eh, not for snacks. I like the shell because of its uniqueness and also because I don’t have the heart to throw it away :P



    sunflower seed shell and acrylic paints

    double tape (scrap container)

    So to make these shell and scraps useful, I made this small gift box using the sunflower seed shell which has been colored by acrylic paint (I don’t have oil paints but I’m sure it will work better), scrap light blue card paper, green satin ribbon, and colorbox inkpad for the leaves images. If you don’t have sunflower seed, you can also use macadamia nut shell or something similar with it that you may find on your kitchen or garden..

    Thank you for visiting me here and happy crafting and working! :)
    Love you all!

    Hello all! Wooww, it’s already Thursday again! How time flies by sooo fast!  
     Let’s hope today is much better than yesterday  :)

    And here’s new challenge for this week at AI Factory, the theme is Luck of the Irish or any green projects or St.Patrick’s Day. I’m using below image framed girl She is like the Wind II from AI Factory.


    And here's my card:


    To be honest, this picture quality is not very good today as I took the picture before I went to office so the lighting, position and all are just wrong for me! But however, I hope you can still see the card and find an inspiration you need! :P On my card, I’m using green card stock, dark green satin ribbon (top and bottom), green paper ribbon    (centre), border embossed from Cuttlebug, dried green leaves and dried grass (for the small ribbon). For the coloring, I’m using bit of copic marker for the skin, a bit of colorbox inkpad to soften the image border and the rest is using Prisma and Faber Castell coloring pencils.

    You can check out other DT blogs to find inspiration from their wonderful creations! Then go visit  AI Factory Challenge Blog to find out the details for this challenge and upload your project. Don’t forget to check out their adorable freebies here! As always, you have one week to submit your project, deadline is by midnight 11:59EST, Wednesday, March 16th.  It is not a requirement for you to use the AIF images but if you do, we’ll be happy to see the outcome! :)

    Hi everyone and helloo new followers! 
    Thank you so much for following my site :) 
    Hope you're all doing fine!

    Today is Seclusion Day or Saka New Year 1933 to Hindu people in Bali. Having been living in this island for few years, I find it always interesting to celebrate Seclusion day. All the lights in this island must be turned off from today at 6.00am until tomorrow morning at 6.00am. People are not allowed to get out of their houses. All television channels are also executed. Offices and Airport is closed and tourists are staying at the hotels. Ofcourse if you're ill then an ambulance can pick you up and bring you to the nearest hospital. So Bali will be dissapear from the map for one night :)

    But all these are to make sure that every Hindu people can do their prayers peacefully. Myself,  as a non Hindu, I don't celebrate Nyepi Day but have always loved it. All I have been hearing since this morning is the sound of the wind and rain :) It is sooo peaceful!! And actually apart from the religious reason,s it is a time where the energy are saved! Well, at least for one day, millions people in one island altogether turning off their lights every year!! I'm not good at math :P but I believe it really saves lots of energy! :)


    Anyway, I'm presenting this card for those who celebrates the Silence Day. iI's all black :) I'm using Canson black drawing paper, black ribbon, I draw small dots with silver pen, I made silhouette of  two temples, I printed out the sentiment on silver paper and cut it into clouds and gave some colorbox ink pad then I embossed the card with textile and organic flourish from Cuttlebug.

    Well, I can't write much here as this is already 5 pm and 
    I have to hurry to finish my posting before it gets dark :)

    And to all my Hindu friends,
    I'm wishing you a peaceful Silence Day and Happy Saka New Year 1933!

    Hugs

    Hello everyone! How’s everything in your life? 
    Well, this is the first week for new DT to start their assignments. And we are all so excited! The theme for challenge this week is A Drop in the Bucket or Water themed and here, I am using Ella under the sea digi stamp.

     

    I’m using a soft pink paper card with background embossed by Asian bundle CB. I draw and cut the waves and made a small frame using real sand beach which I took from Sanur beach nearby my house :)  I also draw the clouds and cut it then put a word “hello” from Stampendous. Actually I put a bit of glitter there on the water and the waves but unfortunately the picture doesn’t really clear. Anyway, as for the coloring, I’m using Faber-Castell classic color pencils, Copic marker for the skin only and a bit of corbox ink pad for the clouds.

    If you need more inspiration, go browse around other DT blogs and see their wonderful creations. So now, it’s your turn to show us your creation :) Visit AI Factory to upload your project and find out about the details for this challenge. Also check out their adorable freebies here! You have one week to submit your project, deadline is midnight 11:59EST, Wednesday, March 9th.  It is not a requirement for you to use the AIF images but if you do, we’ll be happy to see the outcome :)
