Card: Mommy To Be

My lady boss is going to deliver her first child soon. We are going to miss her as she is now resting at home and will be away from office for few months. So last Sunday we had a surprise mini baby shower party at her house. While she & her husband out for church, we sneaked into her house (with the help of her husband & her brother), quickly decorating her house and hiding behind the sofa waiting for them to come back. 

They went back home after few minutes. When she open the door, we let her figure it out what happen first but the funny thing is the first thing she thought is her house being broken into by robbers. Haha.. Ok la, we can't hold our laugh anymore, we came out and shout "surprise!!" softly (afraid she will get shock and harm the baby. hehe..). She was very touched and happy to see us. ^.^

I was assigned to make a card for her. She is expecting to deliver a pair, boy & girl twin baby, i have chosen soft blue-pink as a theme color. Normal color for a baby card la a, blue for baby boy & pink for baby girl. Here is the outcome. My boss really love this card. ;0)

Really like the swirl and of course the quilled pregnant lady. I think this is why i like quilling, its turn out very nice.  

Card: 10 orders (part 2)

Hellooooo there,

Continuation from my part 1 post, here another 3 cards out of 10 orders. 2 birthday cards (for her mom and mother-in-law) and 1 blank card. Will update this post when i'm done with another 2 cards. But actually I still haven't figure it out how to make another 2 birthday cards for her dad and father-in-law. Very hard to make card for man la..haishh..

Card: Termeterai Sebuah Ikatan Suci

Congratulations to my dear friend Jannah and her other half Firdaus for their wedding. Such a lovely couple. This card specially made for their wedding and we all wrote our message to them inside. And great, she loves it so much. 

My very best wishes and prayers are for them. Wishing them find a genuine happiness and contentment. And will stand by each other through thick and thin. Amin.

Card: Thank You...You Made My Day

Here I would like to thank my colleagues, Lily & Audrey for lent me their winter clothes during my trip to Beijing in March. I can save a lot & it really made my day. Thank you for being so generous to me. Just saying thank you is not enough, these card made special for both of you..(^.^)

Lily,

You came to my aid unplanned

And expect nothing in demand

But I want you to understand

That I'm thankful for your helping hand

Audrey,

Thank you I have to say

For helping me the other day

So, gratitude I have to convey

Without further delay!

Thanks again to both of you. Really appreciate it. :)

Card: Instant Card :)

Why i call it instant card? Because.... It is the day where i was making an iphone card, my mom came in to my room and say she's going to PD at 2pm. Then she saw me making a card, and straight away asking me make one birthday card for her boss. It was already 12.30pm and she want it by 2pm?? Wow!! How am i going to make one? Looking around my messy table with a blur face, then.... Yeayy, found extra flowers from my previous guestbook project. Fuihhh!! My savior for that day. Quickly make the swirl and stamp "happy birthday" on a paper. And.... Done!! Wah, the fastest time ever. hehehe..

Card: iPhone

This card made for my friend's colleague farewell. Both of them working as a nurse but my friend said he likes anything related to gadget. So i decided to make an iphone card since he is an "Apple" product user. I designed it like you are looking to a photo from gallery. And i tried to put hospital/nurse element inside there. So this is how it look..

 And this is a close-up view of a "happy" word with stethoscope as a letter "y". I like the outcome. Nice right? (^o^)

Guestbook: Purple Forest

Finally, successfully completed one guestbook with purple as a theme color. This book stitched using Japanese bookbinding technique. It is different from  Kettle Stitch & Coptic Stitch.

And also, I found out new quilling technique call "The Beehive" from Kak Lin from Lin Handmade Greeting Card. It was so great to learnt new technique to make flowers. And it is so beautiful. Look at this (picture below), great isn't it? Like it so much..

Then, recently i keep searching about chinese knot. There are different different types of chinese knot. Wanted to learn all, but decided to try this first. It called "Goodluck Knot". Not that hard to do actually. Try it, its fun. You can use it as a bookmark for your guestbook.. :)

Next stage, you combine the knot with beads and tassel. Excellent, it just too perfect. Gorgeous right?

This is how it look like after u put inside your guestbook.
