Simply red =)




A simply red birthday card that I made for my younger sister=) Red is her fav colour by the way. And there's also the picture of the card with her birthday present. Hehe.














For the wordings, I used the cool material, foam in red colour. What I really love about the foam is that it's flexible and I can twist and turn it while cutting out the alphabets without leaving marks. Especially when normally I didn't draw the words first if it's really small because it would be really hard to follow the line. I simply cut it with the shape figured in my head.













Inside I inserted a beige soft paper for writing my personal wish. And again I'm using a transparent handmade envelope. Happy birthday Uda! (^_^)

Two souls with but a single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one.
~Franz Joseph von Munch-Bellinghausen


Hmm..sweet words. Meaningfull eh? Hehe. With so many wedding taking place, I'm in such a romantic mood=p This is yet another design of wedding card that I made for my fellow friends. The cards are the same except for the theme colour. The blue card was given to Mariyatul as she really loves the colour blue (how delighted she was when she received the card! ~o^_^o~ ). While the sweet pink one was given to Suraya as it really suits the petite and cute girl she is=)


The cards were done in a hurry so they might looked kind of bare. I simply punched flower shape on the front cover to expose the colour of the paper inserted inside. Just a simple trick to make your card more interesting=p The wordings were computer generated and pasted double layer on white patterned paper and shining kind of knead paper. But what I really like is the butterflies which I had to sew on the card. They looked really sweet..two hearts, two souls=p Wish I'd done more with the stalk though. Hehe.

And so this is how the cards looked like in their sweet transparent handmade envelope=)

Thank you En. Ali!=)

Finally found the time to post this! Been traveling during the weekend. Hehe. This is a thank you card I made recently for our clinic's PPK who got transferred. I got the idea of drawing glittery eye on the front card from a long long ago dinner programme/address book that I'm entrusted to make for my senior's final year dinner. Last time it was in purple. But to make this card more presentable for a male receiver, I chose blue (still prefer purple though=p)

The card I used is actually embossed with rose flowers. Sweet huh?=) I have it in a few other colors which I hope to explore with other design.

Here I used my new stamping equipment to stamp the letters on white shimmery stock card before pasting it on cut-out silver paper. They were then pasted one by one on the soft beige paper I inserted inside. Notice you can see the glittery eye from inside? That's because they were hand drawn on transparent paper and I cut out the centre of the card. Hehe.

So this is how the card looks like in it's transparent hand-made envelope. Hope En. Ali won't find it too girly=p
