18th Birthday Invites

I made invitations for a teenage girl who will be turning 18 next month. 18 is a special age to Filipinos just like sweet 16 is special to the western culture. They have a big party to celebrate this special occasion. Almost as big as a wedding with over 100 people.

I made a box to hold the invites. They looked so cute! She knew exactly what she wanted so it was easy to make. It still took me awhile to make it though. Had to take lots of rests because of my back pain.

I used kraft treat bags as envelopes for the invites. Something different from the usual envelopes.

I do custom birthday and wedding invitations. Contact me for details.

Fabulous Florets Birthday Card

Hello stampers! First day of spring break week for my kids. They only get one week where as the public school gets 2 weeks of spring break. We went out for dim sum and then waited for Faith to finish tubing with her friends. We were going to go for a family outing but it was kind of windy and cold. The sun was shining bright though. Also, time doesn't permits. We will need to be back home in time to get ready for the Spring Revival Meeting at our church at night. It'll be too much of a rush so we decided not to go. I always look forward to hear Dr. Goetsch preach for the meeting. He's funny and I love to hear the story he tells that goes with the message he preaches.

I made a birthday card with spring colours to brighten up my day. I'm getting tired of the gloomy and wet weather. I used the Fabulous Florets stamp set for the flowers on the card and the Medallion stamp for the background on the card. Hope this card will bring you joy and a smile when you visit here.

Roses Birthday Wishes Card

Good day everyone! I had a great Thanksgiving celebration this past weekend. Had 2 turkey dinners and had some left over for the week. Not as much as other years where we eat left overs for days. We usually make turkey sandwiches and they are the best.

I made a birthday card with roses background paper. Couldn't find a rose stamp so I used the Fresh Vintage stamp for the main image. Close enough, I think. I got the colour swatch from the background paper and  then coloured the image by using markers. Very easy to do.

Josesph's Coat Card

Hi, stampers! Happy Labour Day! Look what I found while cleaning and moving my stamping supplies? A Joseph's Coat technique card front I made a while ago. I finally made it into a card and added a "happy birthday" sentiment to the card.

I made mine in blue instead of the multi colours the technique ask for. You can view the Joseph's Coat technique tutorial here.

Flowery Birthday Cards

I tried something new this weekend. I made 2 birthday cards with cut out flowers from the Secret Garden stamp set.

 This card has pink flower on it. I used a pink marker to colour the flower.

 This card has a white flower on it. I got lazy and didn't want to colour the flower. I like the way it is.

 I stamped the flowers twice for each flowers and then cut them out. Did some bending to them and then layer them together. Very pretty! I love it a lot. They need to be put into a larger envelope because of the raised flower. The regular A2 size envelope will not fit.

Little Girls' Birthday Cards

Good day! I made two birthday cards for 2 little girls' birthday this week. I have not stamp much lately so I really enjoyed making these cards. Stamping makes me happy. I know it is weird but it keeps me calm and helps me relax from my busy day.

 

I used one of the Simply Scappin' Kit to make these cards. It is easy and fast for me when I don't have a lot of time to come up with a card that uses stamps. Only used stamp for the sentiment.

Mom's Birthday Card

Hello, stampers! I made a sympathy card yesterday  and I like so today I made a birthday card. I use the same stamp set for the main image and happy birthday sentiment instead of sympathy sentiment. I use the same colour combo but this time the card base is Only Orange card stock. Ooo... I love the colours of this card. So vibrant! I know my sister will love this card for sure because she loves orange but this is for my mom's birthday.

Thank you for visiting today! Have a good weekend and happy stamping!

Birthday Owl

Hello, stampers! I made this card for my girls' friend's birthday. Just a simple card. His party is always a big and fun one. The dads and the kids get to play water gun fight. Dads against kids. This year they played for a really long time. I stayed far away from the fight but ended getting wet any.

Princess Birthday Card

 Hello, stampers! Good day! This is double pocket card I made using Stampin'Up!'s new Diagonal Scoring Tool and the Simply Scored Board. I found a tutorial for this card on YouTube by Peggy Bennet. Very easy to follow.

 Inside of the pocket card. I didn't decorate the inside of the card as I want my daughter to be able to write or draw something inside which she enjoy doing. This card will be for her friend's birthday coming up.

This shows the tags out of the pockets. I stamped princess images for the birthday girl to colour. She loves princess stuff. I know she'll love this card for sure.

Puppy Birthday Card

Good day everyone. I'm still looking for the pictures I took of the creations I made for the wedding. I have no idea where they are. I can't retake them as I don't have the stuff anymore. A case of missing pictures. I think I might need to hire a detective to help me find them.

For now, here is a card I made for my brother. He loves dogs so I made him one with a dog image. His birthday is the day after my dad. I get confuse sometimes who's birthday comes first. Getting doesn't help either.

Thank you for visiting today. Have a great day!

Angry Birds Party Favour Bag and Birthday Cards

Happy Wednesday everyone! My son loves angry birds so I made him party favour bag to give to his friends. I stamped one side of the natural linen bags and one side I glued felted angry bird. I die cut the circles but the little pieces I had to cut them free hand. No pattern to those parts.

I also made an angry birds birthday card for him. He loved it so much I got a huge long hug from. I don't get many hugs from him anymore so I really cherish this one.

These birds are made from Stampin'Up! punches. Except the eyes, eye brows and the feathers on the heads. I had to cut them out free hand.

My two daughters made this card for their brother. They are so cute. They got inspired after seeing the card that I made for their brother. Those cottons are eggs. Are they big eggs or what? lol

Here is the inside of the card. My littlest one was so excited she drew many things inside the cards. She would have filled the inside with many drawings if I didn't stop her.

Thank you for visiting me today! Have a great day!

Sailboat Birthday

Hi, stampers!

I made this card for a friend's birthday that is coming up. I used the Open Sea stamp set for the main image and the Nautical Expedition Designer Series Paper for the background. I love this stamp set and the pattern paper. I made many projects with this set and pattern paper.

This stamp set is not in the Idea Book & Catalogue but it is still available to buy.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Bird Birthday Card

I made this card for my friend's daughter's birthday. She just turned 13. She a teenager now, very well behave and a very sweet girl too. She's very talented and writes beautiful poems just like her mom.

Do you recognize the silver top note die piece? It was the left over place setting card from the Ladies' Christmas Tea back in December. I only need one of those for scrapbooking. I use it to make a card. I don't throw away anything that is worth using again. Although my pile of "keep it and use it later" is getting rather large. My husband did suggested to throw some away. Yeah, right. I don't think so. That will never happen. lol  My husband is so sweet though. He lets me craft whenever I want. He's so wonderful.

Purple Paper Carnation

 Hey there everyone! Here is the other carnation flower I promised to show you. It is another purple carnation flower made out of paper.

I also made tiny flowers from the Trio Flowers punch (retired). Aren't they cute? I left the flowers white to add contrast to the card. Not so purpley (if there is such a word). Notice the lacy piece of dark purple paper on the card? It is the new Lace Ribbon Border punch. I'm a sucker for punches. I think I own almost all the punches Stampin'Up! sells.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Wild About You

 Happy Saturday, everyone! Hope you are having a great day so far! Made these birthday cards for my nephews' birthday.

I used the Wild About You stamp set (retired) to make these cards. All the measurements and the colours for the cards are the same except the layout is different. The background was stamped with the Print Pattern stamp (also retired) to add some texture to the paper. Very easy and simple cards. Hope they like it.

Pinwheels Birthday Card

 Hi, there everyone!

I finally made a card with pinwheels. I've seen so many creations with pinwheels so I thought I give it a try. Very easy to make but mine looks kind of flat. I guess working with small scale is not so easy to hold onto while the glue dry.

For the handle I used skewer sticks and covered them with ribbons. The ribbon was covered with sticky strip and then wound around the skewer. I added mini glue dots to the end of the ribbon to give it a nice clean look at the end of the stick. I also used mini glue dots to glue down the sticks onto the card. Hope it will hold. The sentiment was stamped onto Vellum and adhere onto the card with mini glue dots. Wow! This card sure have a lot of mini glue dots. I'm so glad the glue it so light and not weighing the card down.

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a good day!

Happy Stamping!
