Workspace Wednesday - A simple Layout

Drum Roll pls..........

Introducing my first layout of 2017. I had accidentally printed out an extra copy of this photo and thought why not create a layout.

So yay. Happy accident. :) I used both My Mind's Eye and Crate Paper for the embellishments.

Loving the gold accents.

A little bit of sewing with gold thread. Its a fun way to spice it up.

Finished the layout with a chipboard accent and a date stamp. I'm second guessing the date, its either Dec or Jan....hmmmm. Oh well.... LOL. 

Whats on your desk today? :)

Eye Candy

All these things still make my heart flutter.

I thank God for gifting me with creative talents.

*Smilling to myself*, what a long way I've come since 2006 when I discovered the world of scrapbooking. There is so so much joy in creating.

Some cards I created recently. Still loving the minimalist approach to crafting. :)

Enjoy your Thursday evening. I hope this posting will help you to create something beautiful today.

Continuing July inserts with Mei Li Paperie

Hello Hello,

Here I created a simple 2 page spread with this simple 4x4 pocket design by Becky Higgins. I used Mei Li paperie's Sweet Little You printables, you can download and print them...easy peasy. Jen created this printables for her new born but it is so versatile that you can use it for any occasion or projects.




For this first spread, I trim down the 4x6 'Hip Hip Hooray' card using an instagram die, and just printed two instagram photos. I was going for the minimalist look, so I didn't want to embellish much.




For the second spread, I used the 3x4 'Hi' card and trim it down to look like it was part of the photo. Decided to go with B&W photos with a hint of orange. I think it turned out alright. ;)

Check out Sweet Little You printables, and a blogpost over at Mei Li Paperie featuring the different use of this printable. 

Good news, if you use my link http://rwrd.io/4j9qmcj , you are entitled for 10% off your total purchase. YAY! So what are you waiting for? head over to Mei Li Paperie and restock some goodies.

Cheers.

Reorganising my frequently used sequins box, these are the ones I go for most of the time. It fits perfectly in my drawer and stays neatly organised. Although I've already maxed out the entire box, I would probably need to get another one. I bought the box from Daiso, very affordable and good quality. Yay, indeed a good score!

So while my instagram looks really neat and nicely organised, the photo below is usually the condition of my desk. LOL. Aha a whole lot of mess.




Trimming cardstock pieces for the tags.



And after using my big shot, a whole lot of tags. Just preparing for the Pop-up market this weekend.

How is the condition of your desk this wednesday? :)

Etsy Updates

Adding on to my etsy shop this simple and elegant wedding congratulations card. Loving how simple and clean this card is.  The lettering is glittered, so its really pretty. 



Different background paper produces slightly different feel. 


Which do you prefer? Im liking both. Maybe it depends on the couple's personality yea?

I also added this cute yet elegant gold inked tags. They are the perfect size for wedding favors, bridal showers, baby showers or even party packs.


Im digging the navy and gold together. :)


Head over to my Etsy to check our more items. 

Pop Up Market // Hin Bus Depot

Hello Friends,

My second Sunday at the pop up market, this time they provided the table cloth and I was handling the stall on my own (aaron was out of town). It was a good experience setting up, tearing down, lugging items and handling everything solo. Although having another partner or friend is much more convenient (& more exciting) , going solo forces you to mingle around with other vendors. I had a very friendly neighbour selling beaded bracelets, so all good. 



I get all excited when I see familiar faces, Tina & I used to be in the same department in my MNC days. So of coz I have to take a photo to document it. 



And and the market would not be complete without a cup of artisan latte. All in all it was a good weathered day, somewhat breezy with good visiting crowd. 

Cheers to another great Sunday at Hin Bus Depot's Pop Up Sunday Market.

Come say hello next Sunday from 11am-5.00pm. Yay!!

Pop up Market / Craft Market

I must apologise for not blogging the whole of last week. I was really busy preparing for my first craft stall. Yes my first, so you can imagine my excitement and also some uncertainty of what to expect. So after many many years of dreaming and wishing that I'll be brave enough to participate in a craft market, that day finally came.

The timing was perfect and I had a blast. The feeling was just so right, just a strong knowing that I'm at the right place. Thank you Jesus. 



I had a really simple set up, no frills....just wanted my handmade cards to shine. As for now, the cards display is working but I would need to brainstorm for something that can hold more. Btw, I'm loving the natural lighting in this place. 



Thank you Emili for purchasing some cards. It was so good to see you and baby Kai.  Happy camper. Yay! 

If you are in Penang, do come by on Sundays to Hin Bus Depot from 11am-5pm for the pop up market. Lots of homemade food too, so come by for lunch or tea. 

Monochromatic Love

So satisfied and happy with the above minimalist and monochromatic cards.

At first I thought it was way too simple and lacking some embellishments. When I completed the cards it was pass midnight, so I thought I'll sleep over it. This morning when I saw the cards again, I just loved it and decided to keep it as it is. I'm a happy girl. 

Happy Mid week peeps. :)

Made this over the weekend.

Gold and white theme for both frames. Simple and classy. :)

How do you like my cute little succulents? They made it to the first week, YAY! really hoping that they will keep growing....am cheering them on to hit the first month. I don't know why but they make me really happy. Anybody has the same connection to succulents?

Have a beautiful week ahead friends.

Today I will be featuring some handmade mini envelopes which I've added to my Etsy shop. They come in very cute designs and colors. 

They measure 4.2"x 3.1", perfect for a 3x4 card. It also comes with a blank card in each envelope. 

It is definitely a great go to for gift cards, baby showers, love notes or even wedding favors.

Do check out my Etsy shop if you're interested, or PM me for more details. 






















Wishing you an awesome mid week. Ka-Pow!!
