Coming up next on TAC blogazine

Working late night preparing for next TAC's blog post! Guess what's in the making? 

Catch us on 23rd Dec for details! I'm sure I may offer some help for last minute Christmas preparation. 

Stamping: Sweets & Treats Stamp

Took out my favourite stamp today to try and practice new stamping technique. 

I used WPlus9 Sweets & Treats Stamp set for this project and my favourite Brilliance Pigment Ink Pad.

I used water colour paper as my base as I'm going to experiment how do both Alcohol marker and water colour pencil will react to the paper. 

The one on the left is obviously a failed one. I tried to add icing stamp directly on the cupcake but it turned out to be so weird-looking.

So I moved on and try again with another pattern and end up with the one on the right. Stacking a few melting ice-creams and since the left part looks a bit awkward if left empty, I fixed it by drawing another "ice-cream ball" with my artline200, pretending the heart stick shapes are sprinkles.

These were the easy ones. Using my favourite colouring medium - watercolour pencil and blend it with my water brush. It's easy and therapeutic!

I only used alcohol marker for the stacking cupcake and the rest with water colour pencil. The alcohol marker did not turn out well, it smeared and hard to control if you use on watercolour paper. I do not recommend unless you are confident in handling it. 

Still thinking what to do with these cute little cupcakes. Maybe another birthday box card? 

Blue Skies are ahead!

Another card that I've made today! One layer, simple technique with some layering stamp. It's specially made for one of my readers :) I hope she loves this!

I would also like to thank her for supporting and giving me kind words! I'm happy that I've started this, although I'm not selling yet, I'm enjoying making new friends at the moment.

I'm looking forward to have known more people around the world :) If you are interested, you may drop me a line at my email.

Mainly used Lawn-Fawn's Blue Skies Stamp set for the hot air balloon and clouds.

For the "Thank you" word, I used Avery Elle's Fabulous Florals stamp set.

I used my Brilliance Pigment Black Ink for the stamp image.

For the Red " Blue Skies are ahead", I used Ranger's Puff embossing powder to create a 3D texture and look.

For the tiny tiny heart shapes, I drew it with my alcohol marker.

This simple card took me about 15 mins to complete everything :) You may have a try!

Cheers!

You Color My World!

Yay! Finally manage to get my own me-time after a hectic week! I sometimes complain that I do not have enough varieties for my supplies. They are never ever enough ;p So I think I've got a new life goal today!

I'm telling myself MUST get marry to a man who is rich enough to be my LIFETIME sponsor of my craft supplies ---> Haha! I'm just kidding! but I think having a guy who would buy you any craft supplies is one of the sweetest things on earth!

Back to the card, I'm using Lawn Fawn - Color My World Stamp set and its coordinating dies for most of the pop up elements. 

The pink embossed paper was by Darie Embossing Folder. I touch up with some washi tape I got it from Pavillion Tokyo Street (no name for the brand though). Coloured with my TouchNew Marker and last but not least, heart shape felt sticker from Toy'r us! 

I hope you enjoy the card.  

Say cheeeeeeeeeeese!
