    Wow, it's almost more than one year I haven't touched my blog. Lots of things have happened in my life especially my marriage. Things that I want to forget forever and also things that I want to treasure. But well, whatever happen you just have to face it and then keep on walking and moving on and up :)

    Now that I am back again and ready to share with you all things about crafts and life ofcourse :) Few months ago I made this simple card to warm up my mood in making cards. It was for the Gallery Idol Contest, although I didn't get to the next round but I'm glad to participate and to enjoy looking at gorgeous creations from around the globe.

    Here's my card and the theme was Washi Tape.

    1. I made the flower from washi tape with quilling technique and add the stem using a leather cord. I used the same washi tape as the flowers on the bottom. Then I stamped a "hello" word and give sequins as a finishing touch.

     

          2.  Another card is made with similar washi tape as the above card. I multiplied the washi tape by cutting and arranging the strip one by one to make a gradation effect. As a finishing touch, I added sequins and a "hello" stamp.


    Well, that's it. I will upload more later and hopefully from now I can be more active and continue on blogging and sharing my creations :)

    Cheers,
    Ika

    Hello! How's everyone doing? Great I hope! :)

    Myself has been having unpleasant moments for the past few weeks. Well, in life there are the up and down moments and so I had that down moment unfortunately :P But hey, why complain, I'm still sitting here in front of my laptop, able to work, able to write whatever I want.. and that's something I should be grateful right? So I'm just trying to enjoy every good moments that I have while I still can :)

    I haven't touched my sketch book for long time. Today, I just want to share a very rough sketch which I made yesterday :) I have to say I really need to learn more.. I drew this sketch from a photo I took few months ago.. I almost forgot that I have this one so then I decided to draw it on a paper.. I actually wanted to transfer it into a digital picture but hmm, I don't know if I have time to do it soon, so maybe later I will. For now, I'm just enjoying the result of my hand drawing.. although I know I still have to learn a lot! :)

    I created the sentiment, it's just seems so simple yet meaningful (at least for me :P).
    This is all for now, I write more later.. Now I'm off for dinner and then continue following up orders at my crafts boutique! :)

    Take care!!!

    Helloo..

    What a busy but relaxed saturday morning: packed some orders, sent them to courier, processed photo for my boss' new passport, accompanied my hubby to a barber shop and now waiting for my hubby to finish some of his office works.. :)

    While waiting for my hubby to pick me up, would be nice to upload a greeting card that I made for my boss' upcoming birthday :) Yeahh yeah yeah, I made two greeting cards for him and asked everybody to sign them!

    We used to buy him a cake but this year his birthday is on Sunday so I think would be nice just to send him flower and greeting cards signed by some of his staff :) Well, I had to hurry running between two offices in one day just to get these signatures and so really sorry coz I couldn't get all the staff to sign as some staff are working in different shift..

    This time I only made a very simple and easy greeting cards with the help of Mrs.Cuttlebug.
    A clock theme embossing folder and a happy birthday stamp from Stampendous, feels complete at least for me :)




    Hmm we're getting older each year but why worry 'coz it means that the older we get, the wiser we become, and that's how it should be.. Because if not then age is really just a number for some people, no meaning at all :P

    Well, happy birthday boss! Hope you'll like the greeting card! 
    As for the wishes, you can find many of them on it :)!
