And i also made a canvas art display again for my girls room. The paper is by KandCompany Valentine collection it looked like a hankie huh? It was so much fun to make and they always get a nice compliment from their friends whenever they come over for play date.

Dressform Card, "Hi"

2011-03-12T22:52:00.000-08:00

I completely forgot about my Summertime in Paris Cricut Cartridge, i had it for a while and never made any project with this. I loooove dressforms so it's just crazy that i had never used it. The images are gorgeous! So here is the first project using SIP cart. I'm in looove!

I also used G45 Steampunk Debutante and Once Upon a Springtime papers, Camelot and mini roses from Recollections.

Thanks for looking you guys!

Jaded in the Box!

2011-03-12T00:30:00.000-08:00

So here i am again with a shadow box project. Love making a layout and home it in this box that i bought from Michael's. It is an 8x8 in size. I used Graphic45 Steampunk Debutante papers and i used the blintz fold to frame the Tim Holtz hanging sign, stamped with Hero Arts, Three Smiles image. This was a lot of fun to make, it has been a while since i made using G45 papers and making something grungy. I also painted the dressform with black acrylic paint and sand it just randomly to create that worn look, and embellished it further more with pair of angel wings applique.

Thanks for looking!

2011-03-12T00:11:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies! So i joined another swap and it's being host by Tiffany from Mammatiffy from Youtube and http://www.Stampingattiffanys.blogspot.com. The requirements were to only use Webster's Pages papers and to have a word or sayings. I used Hollywood Vogue on front and Wonderfall for the back of tags. I also took the chance to make my own charms for the first time and i think i did alright :) The beautiful lace is from Jules @ http://www.thejulebox.blogspot.com.

This were a lot of fun and so much more faster to make, this is definitely not going to be my last swap. Thanks soooo much Tiffany for hosting this awesome tag swap!

Burlap Sacks

2011-03-08T12:23:00.000-08:00

This mini album is one of the example that you can do with this sacks. I think it gives it a more unique and fun look to the book. So fun to paint on them and embellish them with anything that you desire. Just make sure you use hot glue to adhere the papers or any embellishments onto the burlap. And also make sure that you have a piece of cardboard inside the bag when you are using hot glue so the bag wont stick together or it won't close up on you. To whoever gets to buy this sacks, HAVE FUN!!!!

"Thanks so much" cards

2011-01-28T17:58:00.000-08:00

I absolutely, positively loooove the My Minds Eye, Lost and Found paper line. The bird cages were images i bought from Etsy.

Thanks for stopping by.

2011-01-28T17:55:00.000-08:00

I absolutely feel in love with this paper i used by Crafty Secrets. It definitely helped achieve the design in mind. I wanted something vintage, victorian but with a lil shabby touch. The paper technique of this layout is pretty much self explanatory, it was so so easy and it gave my layout tons of dimensions.By the way this beautiful woman is ever so special to me. One of the most important and meaningful person i ever met in my life.
Thanks for stopping by.

"Inspired" apron

2011-01-28T17:49:00.000-08:00

Hello, Hello!!!!! I just wanted to share this cuteness overload! This is so simple, but for some reason this apron just makes me so happy!!! It was so easy to alter this apron. This used to be in natural color apron that i purchased from Michael's. I dyed the whole apron with Glimmer Mist in Torquoise Blue diluted with water in a spray bottle. Let it air dry, and the i sprayed Lemon Twist GM again diluted with water onto the bottom area of apron. I used art brush to blend in the two colors and let dry. I applied the iron-on transfer based on the instruction. Added a trim and flower, and wolla!!! Prettiness!!!! I have so much fun crafting,but now with this apron, it'll be even more fabulous!

Crafty Secrets Baby Wall Hanging

2011-01-28T17:40:00.000-08:00

Hey you guys. I made this baby hanging for a friend of mine thats having a baby girl pretty soon. I knew i wanted to make something traditional and very soft and sweet. First i traced the bracket shape from an album cover onto a very thick cardstock, then i adhered this soft chenille fabric. It's so soft and it gave a babyish look onto this project. The beautiful vintage images are by Crafty Secrets called Creative Scraps sheets of images. It's so much fun.

Thanks for looking! Muah!

Distressed and Crackled Bench

2011-01-28T17:32:00.000-08:00

Hey Bellas!!! I found this cute lil bench from a thrift shop during our visit to Lake Tahoe last summer. I knew i wanted to do something with it so i finally did. Sorry i forgot to take the finish picture. I do want you guys to take a look at the crackling effects that a simple formula can give. First I painted the bench with baby pink acrylic paint very messily then let it dry. Coat with just a regular Elmers glue and apply another color paint, in this case i used ivory. Take your hot tool and begin to dry the painted area. The trick is simple, the paint dries faster than the glue so the paint slips and creates the cracks. This is so simple and a lot more cheaper than using the crackling paints by Ranger.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey you guys!!! Oh man it's been such a long time since i updated this blog. I'm not a blog or facebook crazy, i thought Youtube for me is enough. But i realize that some people wants to take a look at pictures of my projects up close and its more detailed compare than video quality. So from now on i will try my very best to post my projects here as well as my Youtube channel.

But anywayz, I have a quick lil news, well not so new to some of you guys. I've been chosen to design some projects for Crafty Secrets for this month. I was totally shocked and so so happy! Some of you guys probably seen couple of the Crafty Secrets videos. Please check them out if you haven't. Thanks for stopping by.

Charm Box

2010-04-11T02:25:00.000-07:00

Ciao, Everyone! So i made another box. I had to come up with a storage for my charms, and i have so many of them so this is what i came up with. I didn't plan on embellishing it so much but that didn't go as planned, as you can see. LOL, i just couldn't control myself, i just kept adding and adding more stuff into it. But the most important is, is that it is pretty to look at (to me anyways) and also punctional. I think it makes a great as display piece too.

So what i did was painted the box, wood appliques, and feet, that i bought from Michael's with Off White spray paint. It took two cans to cover the entire box and appliques and feet. I have to warn you to be careful not to get high. LOL..and then i started placing all the other elements.

I really like the vintage/shabby feel of this box. And i think it really reflects my style. Im not all out vintage but i like to mix and match styles in one.

Hope you guys like it.

Thanks for looking.

Muah!

Raspberry Tea box and mini

2010-04-09T22:52:00.000-07:00

Hello! hello! everybody, i am posting again!! Finally!!! hhehehe. I've been really lazy to post anything in my blog. You know it's just not my thing.

But i just wanted to share with you all a box that i altered using the Mariposa box, for chip pieces. And of course i didn't forget the mini. I used the Raspberry paper collection by Prima and various flowers and pearls also from Prima. I had a great time altering this box. I like that it has an acetate window so the title of mini is viewable from the front of the box. So ladies, give this project a try because i know you'll have a blast!!!

Thanks for looking.

I made this album for my son Dwayne that loves sports so much. The making of this mini was a challenge. I didn't wanna add any blings or flowers which is my favorite embellishments for most of my projects. But I had tons of fun putting this together, and my son just absolutely adores it. And plus i made him feel so very especial that Mommy made his own album! :)
