a set of Life is Good...

Hi again....
These are my second post for my handmade cards today....
Last time I bought a set of Echo Park Paper, Life is Good...
After using them for my scrapbook layouts... I still have some  papers left... so I decided to make some cards using the set....






They come in a colorful set.....

Enjoy your week ends....

Bye...

:)

a set of love cards....

Good day all....
It's a holiday here in Indonesia... It's a Moslem holiday, all my helpers were going home already early this morning.... They are going to celebrate their "Hari Raya"... the house will feel very quiet these few days... and of course, I have to do the all house works by myself then... :)

Luckily.... I have done making some cards before the holiday is coming...

These are mini love cards.... all the images are from Penny Black Stamps













I colored all the images using Copic and Distress Inks to make the background....

blast off......

Hello....

Today I'm going to show a card...  and I enter the card for the Wee Memories Challenge #64 - Sponsored by Graphic 45!

It's about masculinity... so after a few days figuring out how to make the card,
here I am with my masculine card....


I used Cherished Stamp for the map, embossed it with the embossing powder and colored with distress inks

Used some Carla Craft punches to make the spaceships & stars

... and while I was thinking to make a planet and what kind of planet I was going to make.... here came my daughter...
She suggested me to make a planet mars... it's a red planet and has a lot of craters on it, she added.



To make the planet mars, I colored the half circle paper with distress inks.... 
and after sitting for a while, thinking how to make the craters, I came with the idea to crumple tiny bits of papers and colored them with distress inks ( fired brick & black soot )... and glued them

Applied some glossy accents on the spaceships (the yellow dots) to bring out the window accents






Don't you like the red planet?
.... my daughter loves it very much ...
Thank you Sacca.....

home sweet home...

Hi....
here's another card for today...
I made this card for the Lawnscaping Challenges Lawnscaping Challenge #16: One Layer Sponsored by JENNI BOWLIN... although I still don't have any Lawn Fawn stamps since it is difficult to find one here in Indonesia...
I have been in contact with the Lawn Fawn to find any near by stores that carry the stamps.... and I can't wait to get my hands on the products for my LA trip.... They are just very cute and adorable...!!! 
:)

This is a very challenging challenge for me, for this is the first time I made a single layer card...

hope you like it.....










you're the best - butterfly card

I like butterflies...!!
 they're just cute, adorable & wonderful.... don't they...??
I have been collecting the dies, punches, stamps, papers in different sizes  and shapes....
... they give the lovable touch on the projects... 

I just got my butterfly dies these past view days... 
... and here I am with my butterfly card ...










I decorate the card with felt and ribbon for entering the card to Lily Pad Challenge

Hope you like it.....

the picture was taken in May 2011 when my daughter was about to have her end of school year holiday...

instead of making the formal class picture... my daughter & her classmates decided to pose at their funny faces for the school magazine...
yes...I was laughing looking at their picture
and for the layout...I use bright colors to express their jolliness....

















and here are the faces.....


who do you think has the most 'adorably' face?
