Another sneak peek...


To get your layout done in a jiffy, just put whatever you can grab and have fun. That is what I did this morning before I am off from the house. While waiting for my other half to get ready I did the above, I only have to add title and may be a few embellishments later on.

Thank you for looking. Hugs

Metal Art ATCs

After attending the metal art class by Catherine last two weeks, I immediately get hooked to do metal art. Since I have a few rolls of colored foils in my studio, I quickly grabbed them and started working. For this month ATC swap with Liza and Amelia, we have a theme - to create metal ATCs.

I did a couple from the metal tape and also from the colored foils. The techniques I used included rub and buff, sand, stamp, and some embossing. You can try, it is fun and the technique and way of doing this metal art is endless, it is totally up to your imagination and this time my technique are quite simple, very easy and straight forward. Sharing some ATCs I did last week using colored foils.


To the rest of my ATCs swap partners, my apologies these metal ATCs are not included in your swap. I have put aside a different type of ATCs for you guys, if you want one of the above - next swap perhaps ;)

Thank you for the lovely comments I have received in my previous post and thanks a bunch for dropping by. Hugs

It is so easy, you can go here and here to see the tutorials on how to do the "snippet roll". Thank you to Carole, Alice and Camilla for sharing the tutorial. Have fun creating...

Charity for Japan


I managed to join the Charity for Japan organised by Tomoko and I did 4 cards, not able to do more than that as I have so many WIP to be done on my craft table. I am totally not a card person, hence my cards are just simple.

I have something to share on my next post and thanks for dropping by.

The Color Room Palette # 50

I have created a layout last week for the above challenge at The Color Room. The above palette totally not my colour and I find it hard to play with, totally. However, I managed to get this layout done..."I see you in me" enjoy the pictures and would love to hear your comments.


I added a punchanella on top/right side and love it and I also used my soft drinks bottles caps (top & bottom part of layout)
You can see I added a few Pink Paislee, Artisan Elements and I "mist, rub and buff" them with different shades of blue colours.

The Jo Sonja's, French Blue is totally the right colour for this palette and lucky me I have it in my drawer.
The blue background paper is from my Studio Calico. Can you spot the swirl rope next to the blue lace? That one was inspired by Finnabair layout TCR # 49.

Since this layout is fulled with embellishments, I decided not to use any "thickers" I wrote the title instead and I used my antique vintage typewriter for the journaling and I love the font.

I have something to share as I have lots of mojo came and visited me over the weekend.

I managed to do 3 aprons out of 1 meter canvas (I sewed all of them), I did 9 pin cushions, 7 ATCs (6 are metal ATCs). I will be swapping metal ATC with Liza & Amelia this Saturday, cool!

Have a good week ahead and thanks for dropping by. Hugs
