Hi Beautiful… Happy Birthday Card

Hi hi, it’s July and it’s my birthday month. Today, I decided to make a card for a special colleague who birthday is a day after mine. She has undergone a major surgery last year, has recovered and back to work. Not only are we born in the same month but same year too. So for some reason, I feel a special connection with her.

I started off with the inking of the background with distress oxide. Then, I die cut a circle with mama elephant die on the inked background. I cut out a small piece of pattern paper 3”x3” from my scrap paper and partially die cut it with the same circle die. 
Thereafter,  I stamped the adorable girl from Mft ‘Flutterby Friends’ inside the card and coloured it with fabercastell colour pencils. I also stamped and coloured the butterflies. 
 I decided to use Mft Happy Birthday Circle Frame die-namics and die cut it twice. 
Finally, putting everything together and adding the sentiments on the card and inside the card. A little final  touch with Honey Bee Stamp cupcakes rhinestones.
Yay!  It’s done! Wishing her a blessed birthday and good health! 
I going to submit this for Mft Wednesday sketch challenge- Sketch 548.

3D Display Card 1

Hey all, it has been a while since I last updated my blog. Busy and having fun creating all these 3D display cards. Once again, I would like to thank Jennifer McGuire for the inspiration. I have many people asking about the dimensions of the card so I’m going to share it today.  I created my own template using the rainbow arch from Mama Elephant slim scene scape rainbow add on. Check out the dimensions below.  Next, I die cut the slopes using Lawn Fawn stitched hillside borders and created a path.  For the background, I stamped, embossed and inked it.   Lastly, I stamped the adorable Christmas-themed critters, coloured and assembled them.   Thanks for dropping by and hope you like it. 😊  

Simply watercolour

  My first encounter with watercolour was at 17. My JC Art teacher introduced it to me. Back then, I didn’t really like it as I find it difficult to control. Overtime, with practice, I fell in love with the medium. In the recent years, I have attended several watercolour classes under artists in Singapore. Now, I really enjoy painting with the medium.  Today, I am going to paint a stamped background, ‘Country Roads background’ from Hello Bluebird. I started painting the tree first. Then the grass and leaves. I used a water brush instead of my watercolour brush for quick painting. The set-up is really easy and stress-free. Just the palette, water brush and tissue.  Here a look at the completed background. I’m happy with it. 😉 Looking at the painted background, I decided to add the girl and butterflies from MFT ‘Flutterby Friends’ stamps set. To make the girl stands out, I painted the dress orange.   As the background is already quite detailed, I decided to include on...

Sending You a Double Scoopsof Birthday Wishes

  Hello, today I’m sharing a birthday card created using MFT products. I bought many stamps and dies from MFT in July to pamper myself.  For this card, I started by colouring the stamped image with reference to a colour palette I came across on Pinterest.    Then, I inked the background with the watercolour stencil and distress oxide.    I added a rectangle frame as a border for this card. Lastly, I arranged the elements and stamped the sentiment.  Just in time to join MFT Color Challenge. 😉
