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

wish list

it's a new year.... 2013. My last post was about my goal to create more, which I did. I've made lotsa flowers, projects, minibooks/album, layouts. Yes, I did a lot of crafting since but I didn't update my blog. this year, my goal is to create something everyday. the problem is not about creating. but my biggest problem is updating this blog *sigh* so, in order to update as frequent as possible, my wish list of this year is (I mean are): 1. a new camera 2. a new laptop that is personally my own *wink* well... hope this year brings me all the goodies and freebies (hahaha LOL)the whole year through. Eat. Pray. Love

It's 2012

my...how time flies at its top-est speed, I supposed. It was ages since my last entry. I have welcome new year with few calendars (that I gave away) and a diary (which will be filled for the first week of January only - as always)
this year I am so surprised to find no craft magazines offer free diary. did I miss something??

this month I've been busy with lots of projects.  to kick start this year I finished LO challenge by From Scrappers For Scrappers

it is my goal to have PEACE in my life, including scrapbooking in peace *wink*.  I'am not a neat person, I've been forever wanting a peaceful place for my hobby, but until today my scraproom still in a messy state.  these pics I got from pinterest to motivate me to tidy up and organized. What I did instead, bring out my scrap tools and papers and clutter my dining room, tv room and praying room. and my daughter's been complaining that she found my things all over the place hehehe.. guilty as charged.

I hand made 50 invitation cards for my brother, welcoming our new family member Lana

cute eh?! hehe... but I change the blue baby suit to a pink baby dress :D very un-brunie-an like, this card *lol* well its a new year and a new baby, a lil bit out of the box wouldn't hurt *wink wink*

and I made plenty of projects for my sis Sweet Garden Tea Party, yesterday. From tickets to bunting and plaque and all and everything paper. will show those pics someday.
