and Ian, the Ironing Board (not sure what role he’s on), he’s the strongest though, can you see  he’s down there  supporting Amber to hold the long earrings?

Picture above is Amber and Sue try to support my long convertible gold necklace.  Oh I know I don’t do this usually but, I can’t help it, they’re too cute not to have their own names.  And I love them as much as I love my jewelries.

Wedding Cakes Beads Flavor

I am not done yet with the wedding cakes, and I have a hunch that I will be busy creating more inedible wedding cakes on cards. Inspired from the wedding party I attended, a childhood pleasure of eating a piece of beautiful wedding cakes, sugar craving, to a hidden desire of wanting to successfully bake one real wedding cake. One time I bake a cake for someone’s birthday, and it was a complete failure, I don’t know if I ever recover from the trauma. Meanwhile, I reckon that this suits me better so far…

More Handmade Cards..

Inspired by so many weddings I attend. I hate to just give ordinary red-envelope filled with money, so I made my own cards.. 

 P4170037

P4170047vok P4170008v

P4170062vokP4170079vok P4170076vok

Size: 8 cm x 11 cm. Inside is blank. The card is not completely white, it’s somewhat violet shade.  I use ribbon, Japanese glass beads, well some of them are just regular seed beads.. And lots and lots of glue.   I love how it turned out, the last one is my favorite. I haven’t give anyone of these to anyone, but I do plan to use one of these. Feel free if you want to order, if you’re my friend, and you are getting married anytime soon, I will give this to you, with the money inside of course, as a present.  But if you’re not, you can buy these from me. I know you might be thinking why its all the same concept, that’s because I’m just so fascinated with the seed beads and the idea of making cakes in various colors. Apologize for the redundant, I tend to do that when I get too excited at something.

Worstly, there are some still work in progress, I do plan to make more of variety on the cakes.

Well, I also love love kitty cat, so obviously…

P4170098vokLook at these gorgeous cat! The card size is half the ones I showed above. With mounting tape for 3D effect. The black cat is perforated on an unused inside of floppy disk. 

Anyhow, other than that, I also made a couple of just-because cards..

P4170106vok

This is 5.3 cm x 8 cm, blank inside. I use a mounting tape to give a 3d effect. it says “Have a good time!” there is a book for you to read, a cup of tea, a jar of homemade jam (strawberry I think), and a basket of chocolate chip cookies. All for you!

P4170124vokThis is 8 cm x 11 cm, most of the cards will be on this size, it’s press dried Dandelion and water color.  

P4170120

I have one more, but I will post it later as the picture quality is not so good…

P4170020Last but not least, all these photos I took with three desk-lamps and my room’s drape as the background. I hope it don’t look so amateur.

Have a good night!

Handmade Cards

I had been doing a lot of water coloring in the class with my preschool students, realized that water color is so fun to work with.  Thus, I have put this inspiration to do something I have been wanting to do for a long time. Along with other four cards, which I found is quite an “interesting” stroke, I pick this is my favorite first handmade card.
