LEAP37 Celebrate Life

Here is my very quick card today - Celebrate Life
Hop on and check out the sketch from Jeaunes Leap37 site



I'm also linking this card to 365cards d336 Simply stated challenge
365cards d336 challenge was on 2 simple words so I used Bo Bunny cut out phrase paper scrap. I thought it might stand out from the playful repetitive backgroun from K&C papers.

Supplies : K&C Company Carolyn Gavin Greenhouse (dug from from my paper scraps), "Celebrate Life" from Bo Bunny Ad Lib, Masking tapes from MT Kamoi masking tape and Classiky days of the week, Bakers twine Lemon, clear button from thrift shop

2. Card #2 @ Lilypad challenge

Finally completed ATC Jan 2012

I completed it tonight 1Feb2012. Sending them out later in the morning to the hostess. Some take back from my 1st ATC process :
1. My handwriting does look scratchy!
2. Don't press the rubber stamp too hard... else it looks smeared and you'd probably kill your stamp sooner!
3. Need to check on my eyes, somehow the stamping are not consistent and constantly misaligned!
4. Misting is FUN!

Lesslogy Top 3!

Glad to earn this for the owl board (4 submissions, and I made it to Top3) :P

Wednesday, January 18, 2012

My 1st altered project - Owl board

I did this in about 2hours, contemplating what to use and how much washi tape I was willing to part with. My mum saved some cardboard from the recent purchase of bedsheets. Shawn has been asking me to help to collect stars stickers (reward system). And so I chanced upon Lesslogy Challenge 9 on Inspiration Board and Joey's Owl related challenge on Facebook. So why not do something and try upcycling about it for fun! :) I would probably stick to Shawn's wardrobe using 3M stickies


Linking up these parties :
*Lesslogy Challenge9 - Inspiration Board
*Joey's Giveaway Challenge on Facebook

Supplies:
1. Daiso supply : self adhesive red felt, Heart shaped pegs Monday-Sunday (which had been in my storeroom for almost 6months)
2. Local bookshop : Blue foam and transparency (Why I put the transparency is because when we run out of space on the blue foam, my intention is just to replace and restick new double sided tape with a new top in replacement of the blue foam)
3. Some scrapbook patterened paper to make an owl *for Joey's challenge, scallop punch
4. Unused apparel buttons
5. Washi tape
6. Glue/modpodge, double sided tape, UHU, 3d dots, scissors
