Paper Quilling

Im thinking to make a decoration around the house.
Surfing around amazon uk and bumped on paper quilling.
Looks therapeutic and fun. So i decided to buy, Quilling paper , Quilling tool , Quilling comb

the patern that i printed out to shaped the paper.


It took me a week (due to lack of timing and energy level that sometimes really low ) to finish it.






Finally this project is done, they quite easy to make, but the key factor on this paper quilling "patience is a virtue".


happy quilling,

Wall 3d diorama

I like the Hi Dee Ho graphics from Lettering Delights.
The fact that with Lettering Delights you can do whatever project that you can think about. The possibilities is endless.
Bought the paper from Amazon Decopatch paper and Decopatch glitter glue

This is the SVG files im using. And already print it out and ready to be cut out on my Silhouette Cameo.


I already make my own shadow box and bought some decopatch paper and glue.



Here's video for you to see how im using my Silhouette Cameo to cut the SVG files.




Im using foam pad to stick the graphics. This project is really easy and straighforward.

Card making gadget part 2

When im making my cards. I have 2 favourite tools that i love the most. It gave me good felling everytime i touched the gadget. Before, im making post about eletronic cutting machine. Now, im talking about Sizzix Big Shot.

These machine is manual process, no eletronic involved. You can embossing card, cutting shapes, using paper, fabrics, vinyl, etc.



Again depends on my mood that day, i can using Big Shot to do cards or using Silhouette Cameo.
I bought it from Amazon, Sizzix Big Shot


They really straightforward and you need to buy the dies separately. But when i got it from Amazon, the starter pack came up with dies and  the machine.

Have fun,

Card Making Gadget

I like art and craft no doubt about it. Making cards is one of them. I saw lots of people that already pro and they got hobby to make cards. Its really addictive hobby and relaxing. The possibilities is endless you can make anything and everything from the card making hobby. And the thing i really like is the gadget. especially if a company come up with a breakthrough invention to make life easier for people that love to make cards.

I bought this gadgets 3 years ago, when im still pregnant my first son. And im still using it until today when i want to make cards or some craft project to decorating the house.


Silhouette Cameo is eletronic cutting machine that you can design everything whether its on paper, vinyl, rhinestone. Not just cutting but this gadget is also letting you making sketch. These beast is really good on precision.  Definitely, great investment too. You can run bussiness from home using these tool without having ability to be able to draw/ designing.

Also the company costumer support is really awesome, whenever im in trouble dont know what to do. I just send them email asking about things and they will solve your problem asap.

I bought this machine from Amazon, Silhouette Cameo

For the graphics to design my cards usually i get it from Lettering Delights

If you still beginner you might be found this tools can be quite challenging but since the company costumer support is really excellent you will not find any difficulties for operating this machine.

If you thinking to get a tool that making your life easier for making any craft try this machine. They awesome.
Happy crafting.

Instead i cut it with scissor manually, lucky the shape of the card not too tricky otherwise im in deep trouble.

Lets go crafty


Back then when im still at primary school i always do cross stitch on my spare time (when i said im doing it my mum gave me alot of hand since i made it really messy). I just like them alot. My brain love those x pattern for some reason and i havent done cross stitching for long time now.

Yesterday I went to bookstore and found cross stitch magazine and bought them as i found the magazine giving free project for kokeshi card and since i got bored if the craft project to big and take long time to finish it. Im in the middle doing these Kokeshi project now and in the magazine it says took 4 hours to finish it. Due to the lack of my stitching skill it look really messy and crooked.

Anyway, i do have a blast to get relax doing the project. I dont care bad weather since i can sit down and a cuppa warm water on my side whilst doing cross stitch.

Analog Camera

Im not professional photographer for sure. But i do like camera especially analog and polaroid. I dont know there's something about those not so perfect quality picture that really appeals me. Felt really romantic and so natural.
I do believe imperfection is what make something unique and beautiful.
I had this Diana F+ Deluxe Kit and love them until today. I can be sloopy with digital camera, since everything already automatic and do things for me. But Diana F+ i have to take extra attention when i want to take picture otherwise the picture will turn up badly. All the setting have to be done manually.





I like these camera.

Bead Embroidery Jewellery

Since im teenager i never wear any type of feminine jewellery. I always like to be sporty.
The only jewellery that i always wear is only my sporty watch. Im so use to it and it became my "safe choice" for any occassions.
Suddenly, i bumped into a book whilst im surfing on inet. The book was about bead embroidery jewellery.
The thing that i like about bead embroidery jewellery, they timeless, classic, and colorful.
So, i started a necklace project. Its Lapis Lazuli pendants with herringbone choker.
Seriously, i cant do sewing. I got massive headache when i started making them. And it take ages for me to finish it, due to lack of skill i end up did voodoo to my fingers ie. Pricking my fingers with the needle. Tangled thread thats another things that can be quite frustrating. Lucky mum come to save by teaching me bit about stitches. :p
The books that inspired me, The Art of Bead Embroidery: Techniques, Designs, & Inspirations
And here i present you, drum roll please........
