I didn't have much time to do cards lately. i actually really want to create some card for some challenges...:(
i just didn't have time because of this moving to new house thing.. I know the housewarming party is over but.. i plan to move all my stamping stuff to new house. I love it there since it feels so relaxing to be there so i guess it might be a better place to be crafty ^^ My stuff isn't that much yet but i don't have desk there :( i might have to use the floor to do stamping... and need to buy organizer or portable wardrobe.

a lil update about me, i have a very bad sorethroat now, talking in 4 classes today and giving private tutor and all the listener were kids... now my voice sounds creepy...

Here's a simple card i made today (during break time).. just seeing mimi on my card already cheer me up...

Stamps : Mimi cupcake

Paper : October afternoon

Coloring : Copics

Don't worry , beside not-so-very-good news about me.

Housewarming party

I have been busy for a couple days. i didnt get to upade my blog because on Monday night we had a housewarming party! Yay!! that means new house!!! I'm moving to our family new house, but i will be spending most of my time still at my own place since its closer to work and thats where my stamping desk is :D

I don't think i can take the picture of the whole new house and upload them here.. so im just going to share my favorite spots of the house :

Here's the living room with my super comfy red couch. thats where i usually sit and use my laptop :) This is how it looked before our guests arrived :) The picture on the wall ? thats me and my bro graduation potrait.

My Dad's garden at backyard that soon will be crowded by guests..

and this is after the guests came.We invited about 140 guests (my friends,my dad n mom's friends and my bro's friends) I know this is a looooottt of people. but sure they came not all at the same time which save us some breath.

I just want to share that i didnt get to eat the satay (they said its really good) :( but im loving the friend mantou filled with beef minced (top left picture). we had to stand for almost 3 hours and keep welcoming all the guests or showing the guests around the house. It was a great time since i got to meet most of my family and friends here. I didnt take so many pictures right now because i might post some in near future ^^ This house way more spacious and relaxing .so i love to spend my breaktime here :)

Ah ya! Last night we got to open some housewarming gifts. Guess what ? we got like 5 electric fans,.. and flashlight,romatic light(with the stars and hearts light projected to whole room in the dark), tea set, coffee set, "coughing" ash tray (super unique)..and more. :) hehe i also plan to share a warm gift on my next blogpost.. what's my warm gift ? wait and see ^^

Card ? hmm .. only made one card lately and its requested by a friend. Its a wedding anniversary card, using more hero arts stamps :) I was trying to make a homy look card with a space for a picture at the front of the card.

hope you like what i share today :)

Be Mine

I still have my migraine and anemia until today..I think im going to see doctor soon.

its so annoying because i cant do many duties i usually do at home.

and now i start to have some sorethroat too. my mom asks me to drink some honey with lime. i love lime but i don't really like honey. i just simply not into sweet things (for eat or drink) i feel like those sweet stuff would stuck while i eat/drink them.. but i have no choice because i hate medicine even more!

Speaking about honey, i just made a new card today.. that includes some bees.. flying creature. yes! its Mimi and the bees!!

this design has come out to my mind the first time i saw the bees stamp. and im also trying a new colour combo that i never tried before. I don't know if it turns out well,you'll be the judge.

Here's the card :

Stamp : Penny Black Love Antenna wood stamp, Mimi and miles clear stamp set (hearts),

and stuck on you clear stamp set (bee)

Colour : Copics and derwent softcolour pencils

I am soooo happy with my life eventhough its not perfect. I have been receiving support from family, my boyfriend and sweet comments from all of you. its just these days ive been feeling down and right now i dont feel well too. Even right now im having bad migrain. But im dying to share the good news ive got last nite.

Yesterday i wrote a blogpost and shared a card, mentioning how bad i felt lately.. but not last night. When i was resting on my bed, my mum came and brought me a package. She told me this is the one i have been waiting for and that should cheer me up. When i opened it, it was HERO ARTS GOODIES from blog hop hero hostesses win (on January). Its not that it arrived late, but i wrote my mom's address (in another city) on purpose. The little town where i live now have a very strange addressing system. You have more than 3 houses having the same number on the same street. The package arrived right on time and made me SUPER HAPPY!!

here's the picture of the new family of my little stamping desk.

ok.. my stamping desk looks really messy and small.. i know.

i dont have bigger place since this actually my desk when i was still in elementary school. and i dont get a bigger room since then.. :p

But that's not it!

There's more...

Later at night Vera texted me about a very cute card among hero arts flickr.. a donut and coffee cup card (holding hands) how cute is that! and while i was browsing this card, vera texted me again that I WON HERO ARTS FEBRUARY CHALLENGE!!! I was SO SURPRISED that actually my migrain hit me again. hahaha!! then i went to check Hero Arts Blog. My Card WON as one of Fabulous 5 ! undercribably happy!

here's the card that won in hero arts challenge, i haven't posted it on my blog yet.

Is that it ?

No.. There's more!!!

Life is not perfect

Sigh...

Today i dont feel well at all.. i got anemia and headache, and i just cant do my regular activity. Yesterday wasnt really my day too.. many things happened and made me emotinally EXPLODED!!

Good thing i can spend sometime to rest at home today and.... decided to make a card.

Here's a card i made using penny black stamp and hero arts sentiment.

I tried to make the burning coloring effect on the toasted bread to make as if the bread been burnt while been toasted.. It happened to me before, i wanted to have quick toast for breakfast and it ended up ugly..

My boyfriend told me that i shouldnt expect things to go well everyday.

Life is just not perfect..

but There're much more things we should be grateful about :)
