Talking about addiction,  my should be "take five" was prolonged, spent hours trying out so many possibilities hehehe..  I even make washi tape out of this stamps, lucky it is calorie free and fat free

I used the washi tape to make the frame

 

flipped and cropped

 

punched and tied :p

FSFS February 2013 - Picture Inspiration with a twist

well, well, well... it's that time again. time for a new challenge in From Scrappers For Scrappers' blog.  this month's challenge hosted by Maya.  

Create a layout, a card or a project based on this picture however you must included the twist as I stated below:

*Use at least 3 colours from these; red, silver, copper, gold, black & white.

*For base, you can use either black or/and white.

*Must have sparkly, rhinestones, pearls & metal charms.

*Choose at least 2 from these elements; ribbons (bow), heart, lips or camera.

(thats a lot of twist, eh?! hehehe...) 

 

so, here is the picture

and here is my take

I bought this dress form  a long time ago and when I see this month's challenge I decided to do something with it.  The dress form has no leg so I used a tissue roll but it kind of short.  I paint it with black pain and dab lightning black ink, the black lace was my mother's shawl.  Next I put a little bit of everything according to "the twist".

Now it's your turn. For more inspirations (pssst... our DTs have submitted dazzlings projects for your inspiration) hop on to From Scrappers For Scrappers blog.  Closing date 13th March, 2013.  Winner will be pick randomly.  And the great news is - We'll be having 2 categories, one for adult scrappers & one for Junior scrappers (which are age 12 & below)

Good luck!

You're the sweetest

I think I'm addicted to this challenge.  the sketch is so simple and easy to make.  I can make them in minutes, something to destress me from my piling tasks.

i {heart} sketches #4

this year I'm trying to craft and blog more.  yep, the hardest part is "to blog more".  I like to browse internet for ideas and inspiration and been meaning to join a crafty challenges hosted by so many crafters out there.  I will print them or draw or just write down notes on them but I never (almost) get around in making them :p

today I happen to see this sketch challenge from (i {heart} sketches) and it looks easy and delightful indeed  (minus the digi stamps) so I made this card with leftover papers I can find in my office table drawer.

so here is my take.  I love how simple and clean it looks.  Maybe I will make another card with this sketch. maybe...

happy crafting... o_O
