PINK Sunday

The Challenge:

The Ribbon Girl August Color Challenge (Pink)

The Ribbon Girl has their August Color Challenge, it is one of the color I used often - PINK.

Here's my project.....

this is 2 pocket tags requested by my students' parent, they want it for baby girl Alex and want it pink as well, of course!

I used a lot of scraps for this project and add on my hand-dyed crinkled ribbons.

Today is really really hot out there, I should not complain since this is really the first time in the summer that I felt the heat is bothering me, so we just stay at home and scrap even it is Sunday.

I completed one of the album that I started months away, it has been sitting on my craft table for a while, it feels good to finished it. (Pat myself on the shoulders) : )

City Crafter Challenge Blog

Stella wants us to used WASHI TAPE on our creation.

when I send care packages to my daughter, I like to include a photo of Papi because I know the girls miss him too.

I guess I was in a hurry sending the package to Clare and took only 2 pictures for this project with my phone. Both the top (blue) and bottom (floral) are washi tapes....

I also have another project that I have not post here, a THANK YOU card with holiday washi tape because I made that around christmas time.

let me dig further into my photo folders...

Oh I found these little glassine bag with washi tape too

they were used to house these little tags I made for a student's grandma, who ordered a batch of different stuff from me....

I am leaving early in the morning for a short road trip, driving my girl to LAX, she is flying to Singapore for her internship, work in the global banking department for 6 weeks, I hate to see her go because I enjoy having her home with me for the summer. Dolce and I do a lot of cooking and baking together, and we like to go thrifting as well, now I am so sad that she will be gone all of this summer : (

but it is a good opportunity especially she is majoring accounting in NYC, this global experience is going to add some much to her resume, she just turned 19, she has bright future ahead of her with this experience on top of her 4.0 average every semester, so.... sometimes mom just has to learn to let go.....

I am going to miss Papi too...

he is staying home this time, hubby is going to work near the airport for 2 days, that is not a pet-friendly hotel, so Papi stay home and we have our neighbor coming over twice a day just to feed and play with him....
