TGF - Sketch 2,3,& 4

Sketch #2Sketch #3Sketch #4

Hi everyone! I been trying to play catch up on TGF 12 days of Sketch. They are now on the 10th day. Here is my take on sketch 2, 3, and 4 . On sketch #1 I use HG sings. I added the Santa hat from TGF X-Mas Sweeties and also add a dew drop on the hibiscus in her hair. I use MS heart border punch on gold foil paper and I also use some gold & white glitter paper that I got at J's Knicknacks. On sketch # 3 I use digi Chibi Cupcakes, isn't she adorable. I use the color purple the most because this card will go to a friend her birthday is coming soon and she loves purple. I added some stickles on the cupcakes. Doesn't the cupcakes look yummy to eat? On the 3rd sketch I use digi Spring Fairy. I just love TGF collection of fairies. They are so beautiful and of course fun to color. I colored all images with my copics. I just love these pens, wish I had more of them. Santa didn't bring me a set of pens maybe for my birthday next month. LOL I'm hinting my hubby but we just have to see. I hope everyone will have a safe and Happy New Year! Can't wait to see you guys in 2010! Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Hula Anya

Happy Saturday my friends.I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas time spending with love ones. For me, I'm glad it's finally over. It was such a busy Christmas time this year and it went by so fast. My son was happy of course, he got what he wanted a DSi. Here is a card I would like to share. I used the TGF sketch #1 from their 12 days of sketches challenge, the color combo comes from this week's SSH is to use white and another color and it has to be a Christmas theme, I also use this for Anyone for Anya challenge. So here it is. I chose red as my other color for this challenge. The image is from the TGF called Hula Anya & I added the Santa hat from Xmas Sweeties. I even added some embellishment of dew drops on the haku lei and on the hibiscus. You can purchased some of TGF stamps and dew drops from Little C's. The sentiment say Mele Kalikimaka means Merry Christmas in Hawaiian. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Club Anya Holiday Hop!

Hi everyone! Gosh time sure fly by so fast and there is only 9 more days of Christmas and I'm not quite ready for it. So I have sign up to participate in Club Anya blog hop the other night but I wasn't able to post my pictures, I couldn't get my camera to synchronize it to my computer. It 's just wasn't my day or should I say week, it started on Sunday that I had so much things that didn't go the way I wanted. I was so disappointed and bum out that I couldn't be in the hop because of this. Everyone did a fabulous job, check out what everyone who participate came up with. There's so many talented ladies out there. The possibilities are endless what they have created. I finally solve the problem I needed to get a new cord for my camera. So now my camera is working fine. But I'll probably get another camera just in case. So I hope you guys are quite done with your list before Christmas or at least half way there. Well here is some gifts I made for my co-worker, she wanted to order 8 containers of Chex Mix. She wanted some Hawaiian theme because she will be shipping some to the mainland for her family & friends. I brought these to work and gosh I had a few comments from some patient of mine and they really like it also my boss ordered 7 containers and now my aunties saw these too and want to order some. I use TGF Anya & Ian and altered them and made them to look more Christmases. Now I really need to get down to business. So I will be quite busy this week and I still have yet to finalize the slide show I'm making. Thank you for stopping by, I really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Hello Kitty Panda

Good morning! A few days ago my cousin had request for me to make a Hello Kitty panda using my Cricut. It's been a while since I played around with my Cricut. There's so much stuff you can create with the Cricut & the Design studio. Your imagination can go wild and you can create anything. I really want to get a Gypsy for Christmas. It's a device a handheld design studio that allow you to create & design anywhere without using a computer. I'm giving my Hubby hints what I want to Christmas. But whatever he gives me I will love & cherish it. Well here's what I came up with on the Hello Kitty Panda. Isn't she cute. I love how it turn out. She wanted a tag to attach to a gift she was giving to her boyfriend. I'm so glad she likes it but I hope she don't ask me to make more. LOL. I been quite busy putting together a slide show for a birthday party next week, it's my first time doing this usually my hubby is the one that in charge of this. He been working graveyard schedule so he been really tired. This weekend will be busy for me, I have a wedding tomorrow, a baby shower & Ginger house making on Sunday.

For this week challenge I use Whiff Of Joy the first one is called Henry Angel. Isn't he adorable. I'm loving this little creature even it's mouse. I colored him with my copics and added stickles on the wing and on his halo. Use circle nestabilities, then emboss it with my cuttlebug dots embossing folder, and I colored the dots with my Sakura white paint marker then added stickles on it. I use my MS punch called icicles for the border and added a blue silk ribbon on the top of the icicles border. I put a bow on top of the circle. My finishing touch I added some snowflakes use my MS glacial snowflake then I put some dew drops on them. The sentiment says Tis the Season.

Baby, It's Cold Outside.

Hi there! I can't believe it's already mid week. Gosh time sure flies by quickly. It's already December. By the time you'll know it Christmas will soon be here. Hope you guys are ready and getting your Christmas list done, be sure to check it twice like Santa Claus and found out who's naughty & nice. LOL. Well last week over at Club Anya my friend Kris of K-Lusive Kreations was chosen to host Mystery Monday Challenge and her theme was Ice Ice Baby. Remember the song Ice Ice Baby, Vanilla Ice Ice Baby All right stop, Collaborate and listen. Ice is back with my brand new invention. It goes something like that, I can't believe I remember part of the lyrics. That use to be my brothers favorite song and they would blast their radio and I could hear it over & over again through my room which was the next room next to theirs. So I was stuck hearing that silly song. Oh well for the challenge we had to create sometime icy blue, snowflakes,ice, anything that brings out the chills. This is such a great challenge since I do like the icy cold scenery. Now I wish it was snowing in Hawaii. But it's so strange I'm actually allergic to cold weather, it's called Urticaria and sometimes I break off with hives and my ears would hurt. I must say I hate being cold but I do like to be warm & dress warm. When I think of ice, I think of the color Blue in it and how it's so cold. I use digi Miss Autumn Anya & My Guy Autumn. They look so cute together. I also use My House stamp. This is my first easel card I made and boy I like how it turn out. I use MS punch for the fence. I added artificial decorative snow for the ground and some white fun flock on top of the house. Then added some white tiny foam oval as some snow falling.To hold the easel card I put on a foam snowflake and added stickles on it. Thanks for looking and stay warm because baby, it's cold outside. LOL but it sure is since it's a little chill at nights now here in Hawaii.

November OCS

My partner for November OCS was Teri of Big Ideas From A Little Girl! This is what I came up with. Since Thanksgiving was in November, I wanted to make her a Thanksgiving card and mail it to her before Thanksgiving. The image is from Pink Cat Studio Digi Stamp called Itty Bitty - Turkey Ride. They now carry digi's and they have some new & adorable images for Christmas. Colored Itty Bitty & Turkey with my copics. The fall leaves is a punch and the circles is from my nesties and the scalloped circle is from my Cricut. Finishing touch I added a yellow ribbon with white polka dot on it.
Teri always have cute images and makes great cards with them. Isn't this elf adorable. Love it esp it's a girl elf and how she holds the Christmas tree! She looks so strong how she carries the tree and it is bigger than her of course. I don't think I'll be able to carry the Christmas tree like that. LOL. I love the image, I love the colors, and the LO. Thank you Teri for this adorable card and again for organizing the OCS. Thanks again for stopping by. Have a wonderful Tuesday!

I'll be heading out the door soon to check out some sale too. Last week Farm Fresh Friday Challenge over at TGF, we needed to create a project with no patterned paper on it. Since there's no patterned paper is allowed, I used some different embossing folders. I used all of TGF digi fairies. They have it for each season. So this is what I came up with. I colored them with copics and I added stickles on their wings and I use some of my copic atyou spica glitter pens on their hair. Added a silver ribbon.

This stamp is so adorable it's from Whiff of Joy Christmas collections and you can get them at Little C's. I decided to make a shaker card. For some reason I just love shaker card.

Hi again. Another post for today. This card is for 3 challenges, I have used the sketch over at Friday Sketchers # 79 ,Copic Challenge Creation #16 & Flutter by Wednesday # 84. For the copic challenge this week is coloring the color Gold. I just love my Copics and I been practicing how to use different technique. I'm still learning. For Flutter by Wednesday challenge is any thing goes just as along its a butterfly, fairy, or an angel on it. The image is from TGF - Summer Fairy. This is their new line and they have a total of 4 fairies that are digi stamps. They are so pretty. I made like the fairy holding a Poinsettia so I colored it red and added gold in the middle. Since the copic challenge is to use gold in it , I decided to add red and white in it. And decided to stick to a Christmas theme. The gold paper I run it through my Sizzix Big Shot and use Cutterbug folder which is called candy cane stripes. I added Stickles on her wings. I just love the sparkles. I use the MS corner punch , it has snowflake and stars in it. Finishing touch I added a ribbon, a silk flower, and some bling. Thanks for stopping by today and hope you're enjoying your day!!!

My first Scrapbook!

Hi everyone! I manage to clean this weekend and look what I found. I found my scrapbook that I made of me and my hubby, pictures of us together when we were so young. I gave this to him for our 3rd year anniversary. This was the first scrapbook I made. I really need to go back into scrap booking again. It's really time-consuming making a scrapbook even doing one page. It takes time deciding which pictures and layout to put on the page. It also takes a while to actually paste the picture because I end up reminiscing. It so weird how things end up, maybe it's for the better. We are actually two different people, we're not really compatible. Even our horoscope signs say it, he's a Cancer and I'm an Aquarius. But we know that there's love with the two of us. We learn from each other how different we are but we indent to work our difference. We were dating when I was 16 years old(...12 years ago) , we're the same age. We went to different school. He went to a private school and I went to a public school. Well there's actually more pages in this scrapbook and more stories to it. A total of 45 pages. I will post another set soon and tell you more since it's getting late and time for bed. Thanks for sticking with me on this long post. Hope you guys enjoy the pictures. Good night!

Hi everyone! I finally got some crafting done this weekend. I thought I join in a challenge. I haven't join a challenge for a while so I decided to part take on Club Anya - Mystery Monday. The theme is Let it Snow. The mystery Monday Challenger is Kim Ross. She choose this theme. Since Christmas is almost here. Why not start. I just love the winter and snowy scenery. This was so much fun to create. I haven't played with my Cricut for quite sometime now. So I decided to use my Cricut & DS to make the snow globe shaped card. The image I use is from the set Xmas Sweeties. This is also a shaker card added some beads, tiny pieces of shredded ribbon, and die cuts of snowflakes inside the shaker. I've used fun flock - cotton ball white on their clothing and stickles on their hats. On the background I added a Christmas tree and layer some white paper as the ground and put some more white fun flock on it. This makes me feel like I want to play with snow now. But it doesn't snow here in Hawaii =(. Hope you guys like it. Have a great day and thanks again for stopping by.
