Fun 8th Birthday Bundle Products @ STAMPlorations

Hi everyone! I hope you're feeling good today. I'm fine and taking great care of my brain to remain positive mind being home 7/11 for the three weeks past. Okay I do drive out to nearby grocery; think I did so three times but it's always my other half would go get our food supply when they dwindle. The lockdown is continued after June 14 and will probably end on June 26, 28? I can't remember, lol. But I'm okay with this 'homecation' because I am hoping to do as many as I can around the house especially the garden. The rain simply stop me when it pours nearly every evening when there are times I'm in the mood but!!

Anyways, when sky is grey and cloudy, I try to do what I want in the garden before rain falls; otherwise I'll be indoor crafting away, reorganizing and cleaning (never seem to end, ha but I enjoy it somehow) and what else? Yeah, my mission to sew drapes haven't started yet but let's see if I could start this week.

Enough blab. Let me now share my recent design team work for STAMPlorations featuring gorgeous products from Birthday Bundle #2.
I used See the Good and Art Border #2 die to create this tag. I really love the die and had fun poking through the thin metal with needle to release the debris after cutting it with Sizzix machine.I used Blossom Sprays #5, See the Good, and Design Blox #6 for these CAS tags. 

For this intuitive art on a card, I used Blossom Sprays #5 and See the Good word phrase. Stay hopeful is what all of us have been saying since early 2020 and I'm still hoping for the world to be back to normal again. Miss travelling {smile}!!

Pre-order the Birthday Bundles for only $24.99 (reg. $38) per bundle inclusive of shipping anywhere in the world! 

This deal ends Monday, June 21, before midnight Pacific time.

Better hurry!

That's it for today. See you soon with another new arrivals.

Hugs and smiles,

Dance In The Rain {Tag} @ STAMPlorations

 Hi there crafty souls! How is everyone feeling today? I wish all of you the safest and healthiest daily living sprinkle with joy and happiness each moment.

Today I bring you all a pretty cute tag with a touch of mixed media process in the making. Let me tell you I almost screw it up and took five!! I didn't like it and felt something wrong with the coordination and colors and just everything. But hey, here's the finished tag after giving myself a five minutes break [actually more] wandering in my garden kissing my plants for some joy {chuckle}.

STAMPlorations products used:

Be Strong {Tag} @ STAMPlorations

 Hello there everyone and happy mid-2021!! Oh wow!! Time flies incredibly fast!! I'm not even sure the level of achievement I've accomplished so far?! Life in pandemic hasn't been the same no more and today we in Malaysia is on total lockdown from this day until June 14!! I call it 'homecation' giving me every single moment to try do different hobby I love. Today I spent a lot of time cooking though and cleaning afterwards. Happy dust free but it doesn't last {pffft}.

Let me take you to my newest mixed media tag made as part of my design team work for STAMPlorations. I left white space at the top to give the eyes rest and focus the center part and meaningful quotes.

Some up-close shots:

I used Dots 'n Beans stencil to create lovely patterns by swiping homemade gesso through the stencil. Aren't they gorgeous? If you look closely, you can see Petals #1 embossed stenciling using Sizzix machine.  

I stamped the butterfly on white cardstock and fussy cut as neatly as I can. Let me say I always love fussy cutting {smile}. For additional interest, I stamped the edges with Artsy Border Maker stamp. Lastly I sticked down a sentiment from Inspirational 1 sticker set.

STAMPlorations products used:~

|| Stitched Tags Nesting Dies || Dots 'n Beans || Petal #1 ||

|| Trendy Butterflies 2 || Clear Stickers ~ Inspirational 1 || Artsy Border Maker ||

~ Spring Fling Hop & Linky Party May 19 ~

 Hello beautiful friends! Welcome to STAMPlorations Spring Fling.  

I'm super excited to be joining the STAMPlorations team in celebrating the flowers season and hopefully life this spring blooms wonderfully for everyone. The winners will receive prizes of your own choice. How beautiful is that...smile.

Inspiring you on this day is watercolor spring floral card using one beauty from Quick Cards #3 - Spring Florals A2 Card Fronts. This set has 8 spring florals watercolor designs printed on 120# (325 gsm) matte card stock — it’s REALLY thick! Each card front is approximately 4” by 5.25” — perfect for your A2 cards!

I love all the watercolor designs in this pack that I had hard time creating until I decided to give it a fussy cut and adhered on a patterned paper from Kaisercraft {paper scrap from previous scrapbook project}. You bet I keep left over papers because one piece cost a million after they chopped down one tree! Please don't waste {smile}.

Say, didn't I tell you how beautiful the watercolor designs are? Sherry Russ had designed it easy and fast for your card making project in an instant time. For super-quick cards, simply stamp your sentiment on the card front, adhere to your card base, and voila — you’re done! You can also use die-cut sentiments and clear stickers, and if you’re into calligraphy, you can even hand-write on the card fronts. Artsy-fy these card fronts by blending ink, doing some background stamping, and more!

You have until June 7 to hop and leave comment at the design team blogs.

Take your time but try not to delay {smile}.

Life Is A Journey {Art Journal} @ STAMPlorations

 Hello everyone! Wishing you positive vibes and joy.

I'm good. Except for my garden growing lots of weeds dancing happily in the rain almost every day. Need extra hours to pull them out one of these days. Any volunteer? {chuckle}.

Today I'd like to share a spread of mixed media art designed for STAMPlorations May Stencil Challenge and this is a reminder that you still have time to play along.

  I used a piece of recycle box of cake which I cut into small pieces and will bind into a junk journal album. I've never done one and have been meaning to make one but never have the time so here's one for it.

The butterfly is my normalcy in creating because I love this butterfly so much from the beginning I own it {giggle}. I stamped it down on white cardstock and fussy cut slowly.I glue down the background of Lemony Wedges stencil design which I swipe homemade gesso and black ink pad through it and let dry.I stamped down a sentiment directly on the background...always feeling nervous because I was afraid if that won't appear nicely. For most part it works but sometimes not. This one is victory {lol}.That's it for today. I hope you will join us this month and don't forget to display the challenge graphic to be eligible for prize winner if you're selected.

Entering my work into these challenges:
1. A Perfect Time To Craft : Anything Goes

2. Crafts Galore Encore : Ch#87 Anything Goes

Thank you for dropping by.
Till I see you again real soon. Have a pleasant day.

Hugs and smiles,

Take Flight {Art Journal} @ STAMPlorations

 Hi everyone! Happy May! Wishing y'all  the best in health and well being. I'm happy to bring you my recent mixed media artsy for STAMPlorations May Stencil Challenge. Take a look at my fellow teammates' spectacular designs HERE for your inspirations.

The products I used are available from STAMPlorations shop.

Some up-close pictures:

The lattice stencil designed by my teammate Sanna Lippert is definitely my new love ever since it was launched several months back. I simply swiped homemade gesso through the stencil and let dry naturally before next steps.
Oh, the paper rosette I did last year came handy for this vintage looking project.

If u are my regular visitor, you may notice how much I love this old butterfly stamp which is currently out of stock but available in digital form HERE.

For additional interest, I stamped down funky designs randomly near the edges.

Lastly, I stick a sentiment to complete my project after debating within my inner self the best place to adhere the butterfly cut out, rosette, matting and sticker for a good composition. That was hard {smile}.

That's it for today. 

We would love to see the challenge graphic below in your blog post to be eligible for prize winning:

Thank you for dropping by my blog.

Have a great day and stay safe.
