Supplies: DS4J digi image, Copic Sketch, Kaisercraft pp/brown ink pad, Tim Holtz distress ink, Artline permanent ink, sentiment from Ginger's House and others from my stash

I love that eyelets...a gift from my sister :)

My husband has lots of these things and so I colored with Artline permanent black ink; looks fine so far.

I can't help sewing my card as always, this time a real zipper.

Perfect for posting after the zipper is closed.

Hello 2014 & DS4J Sunday Releases

Hello everyone! Miss me? I surely miss each and everyone of you while I was away vacationing at my Mom's home spending quantity and quality time with her for some five weeks during the year end school holidays. I came back on December 26, 2013...sure, the house was very dusty without me, some plants withered and almost died so there goes my plan to get back to crafting and blogging. Other than that I was busy with school preparation. New school term opened on January 1. My little Afza aged 5+ started pre-school eventually and my son 'Arif begun secondary school. It takes a while to spring clean the house and organize my craft stuff plus gardening (a must=). I'm not yet done completely however but I'm blissful with the flow of happenings.

I hope I'm still not late to wish you Happy New Year! Hopefully your daily life so far goes according to plan. Think I am =) I am excited to show you my first creation of the year for DigiStamps4Joy new releases today. Please visit DS4J blog and take a peek at my teammates' wonderful creations for some inspirations. 

I have used Hello dear image for my center step card (click here to get him).

Supplies: DS4J image, Copic Sketch, sentiment by Ginger's House, Kaisercraft brown ink pad

I would like to take this card into these challenges:

1. The Crafting Cafe : Anything Goes
2. Brown Sugar : Anything Goes

It's my pleasure to have your visit today. Thank you so much for your love and support. Till the morning after, always look at the bright side of life. 

Hugs and smiles,
