Paper Crafts Scrapbooking Magazine Blog Hop

pcsbadge1Hello folks, many of you already knew that Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Magazine is shutting its doors… I was deeply saddened when I heard this news… because PC&S gave me lots of awesome crafty friends through Gallery Idol and helped me open my eyes into the world of craft. While I am still sad, I believe it will turn into a brighter future for everyone :D

Taheerah and Veronica held the fabulous Blog Hop to thank PC&S for everything they’ve done for us. If you’re hopping along you should have reached me from Shelly Kurth and the next stop on the hop is Maureen Plut.

Honestly, I was a bit hesitant when deciding to participate in this blog hop. I’ve never joined CHA and don’t have much experience in this industry. I thought I was unworthy in taking part of this blog hop. Hmm… I just prayed for the PC&S magazine team. However, suddenly one bible script came to my mind. 20141203-01-01Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)

OMGoodness… I realised how much love and strength God wants to pour out to them. So, I decided to join this blog hop to deliver God’s love to PC&S team.

I don’t want to say goodbye, but rather say “HELLO”, and welcome PC&S team to a new beginning a new chapter of your life!

Hello folks,
My card today is for a new Runway Inspired Challenge #66 (I love Runway!)
ric badgeric66-Sportmaxric#66 – Sportmax
Wow… red, pink, violet on deep blue… really amazing colour combo!!! I love, love, love it.

Here is what I came up with:
20140826-01

For this card, I made deep blue paper panel using Studio Calico Color Theory Ink Deja Blue at first. I then affixed diagonally red, violet, and pink glitter striped along deep blue panel onto the white cardstock.

I chose a large rose stamp from Clearly Besotted Blooming Stamp Set and stamped on the separate white cardstock using Simon Says Stamps dye inks and then cut and layered them to form a cluster. In the centre of the flower cluster, I stamped sentiment in black pigment ink and then heat embossed it in clear – It is more shiny than just stamped sentiment – I affixed Studio Calico wood sequins for finishing touch.

20140826-02Oh! I didn’t forget to coat the roses using glossy accent :D

And… one more card here:
20140826-03YAY!! Watercolour card here! I am seriously Water-Colour-Lover :D Basically, I stamped on the watercolour paper using Wplus9 Stamps Coming Up Roses Stamp Set and then painted it using several distress inks.

Hello folks,
My card today has been inspired by Jennifer McGuire’s beautiful watercolour flower card in the Case Study 4th Anniversary blog hop.

081214-Flowers2-Jennifer-McGuire-InkWOW!!!!! (Do I need to say more?)

And… here’s my take on her card:
20140820-01Recently I bought several Prima Marketing Bloom girls and I thought JOY Bloom Girl stamp was good for following Jen’s pearlised watercolouring! At first, I stamped it onto the watercolour paper using black pigment ink and did watercolouring. I heat embossed the flowers in white separately and then painted them using bluish distress inks with liquid pearls. I then affixed pearlised painted flowers onto the watercolour panel using foam adhesive for 3D dimensions.

20140820-02Isn’t she beautiful? I had so much fun!!

Big congrats on the 4th Anniversary!!!

Hello folks,
Did you have a wonderful weekend or still enjoying there? I made card with Altenew PAINTED FLOWERS & LABEL LOVE Stamp Sets for Runway inspired challenge #65.
ric badgeWow! New RIC logo is really great!!
louis vuittonric#65 – Louis Vuitton (Amazing white lace jacket)

Here is what I came up with:
20140811-01I was inspired by white lace jacket and bright yellow colour. White and yellow colour combination is one of my favourite!

At first, I sponged on the white cardstock in yellow for making background panel. I then layered Martha Stewart Floral Doily Stencils on the vellum paper and dabbed it using white acrylic paint to express white lace jacket :D For my focal image & sentiment, I used two gorgeous Altenew PAINTED FLOWERS & LABEL LOVE Stamp Sets. I love those stamp sets sooooooo~ much!!
