    Hello friends,



    So this is what happens whenever I buy fruits, most of the time some parts of them ended up in my crafts room :D They are actually Melon fruits skin which I peeled, cleaned up, and sun-dried. When they seemed to be ready to use, I dyed them with liquid food color and soaked them for a few days. After that, I removed them and put them under the sun for a few more days. The skin is quite stiff to be used but they would look crinkle and crisp :D

    Anyway, I tightened them together so they would look like a flower bouquet and added some floral hand drawing doodle and sentiment stamp "Precious One". Well, even trash can be precious sometimes :)

    This card is my entry for the following challenges:

    The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge - Flowers as the focus

    Lemon Short Bread Challenge - Anything Goes #147

    Thank you for reading my post. 

    Take care! :)

    Hello friends!

    What a sunny day today, perfect to upload my bright card :D

    I think this is the very first time that I ever made a greeting card with bright colour especially using combination of orange and yellow :) Turns out I like the result hehehe.. I used a simple star embellishment in metallic purple colour, sentiment stamps and recycle paper scrap.





    This is my entry for below challenges:

    Allsorts Challenge Blog - Anything with Happy Bright and Sunny Colours
    Love to Craft Challenge - LTCCB #58 May Anything Goes
    Polkadoodles Craft Challenge - Week #21 Anything Goes
    Through The Crafts Room Door - Anything Goes 18 May 2021


    I hope this card can brighten up the days of whoever will have received it!
    See you all soon! :)

    Love, Ika

    Hello friends,

    I'm sure many of you crafters out there are must have piles of leftover papers :) That includes myself too ahaha.. As we know, most of the time they are very useful, correct? :D  Just like the cards that I'm posting today, I used leftover pattern papers. I don't like to throw them away because the colours and patterns are so lovely.




    I don't put any embellishment 'coz I think the pattern already stand out so you can focus on admiring the beauty of each one of them :) You can use this card for any occasions. 

    This card is my entry on below challenges:

    Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper - May 2021 Challenge

    Hellooo, 
     
    Hope everyone is in good health! 
    Today I want to upload one of my card with "cold" theme.



    I know this is not winter time.. But the reason I made this card simply because I found these dry pine leaf just laying on my drawer for years :D Then I put them all on a blank white card stock. I thought it would looked good with white background. So I decided to colour the leaves using Posca marker and put some dots on the card which made it looked like snow :D

    I put a lyric from a song (which I googled :D) which I thought would fit in with the card theme. Well, it's so simple design but I think I like the result though hahahah..


    Anyway, this is my entry for below challenges:

    CASology Week #309 - Outside
    Crafts Galore Encore  Challenge #87 Anything Goes
    A Perfect Time to Craft  Challenge #5-2021



    Thank you for reading my post. See you soon everyone! :)

    Hellooo peeps :)

    Today I want to upload my new handmade greeting card. Another simple style, of course, hehe...

    I made an envelope inspired by the CAS Challenge this week, and I used a pink color inspired by the Card Concept Challenge (below is the photo and link to the challenge).

    Just so you know, I made the envelope out of my remaining tea bag, which had been dyed with food coloring. Instead of throwing it away, I just use it for my craft projects. As for the sentiment and the insert message, I only use my handwriting and draw simple doodles. That's all :)



    Color inspiration from the Card Concept Challenge


    So the above card I made is for my entry at the below challenges:

    #383 Envelope - CASology
    #148 Sweetheart Sweets—The Card Concept
    #489 Anything Goes—Penny's Challenge
    #2-2021 - A Perfect Time to Craft
    #84 Anything Goes - Crafts Galore Encore
    #55 Anything Goes - Love to Craft Challenge

     Watch how I created this card in the below video:



    Thank you for stopping by! Take care and stay healthy :)

    Hugs, Ika
