Valentine's Day

Went a little crazy making Valentine's Day cards these past few days, and the above one was a design I've had in my head for quite some time. The heart spirals twice before ending in a larger heart.

A simpler card here =) more more more hearts.

Can be used for Valentine's, wedding anniversaries, mother's day, boyfriend's birthday, etc.

More treasuries, and a gift box

So, what's been happening with my shop, do you ask? 

Well, I got my first international order (whee!) and had an AWESOME time packaging it.

This is the item I actually sold (Thank You Card with Coffee Cup Dessert Fork) :

 I was thinking and thinking, how, how, how am I to package it? Obviously with the fork, it won't fit in a regular envelope, and it needs to be sufficiently protected so the fork doesn't kill the card =) The postman  wouldn't treat it as gently as I would.

So in the end, I planned out, measured, cut and hand-assembled my own Bubble Box Mailer :

Isn't the heart pretty? =)

Both front and back of the box are lined with bubble wrap, then covered with red paper to hide the bubble =) 

Size : 3.5 x 11.5 x 16 cm.

I wonder how long it'll take to reach the US.

My snowflake made it into yet another treasury! 

 Holiday Decorating Under $30

This treasury, named Holiday Decorating Under $30 is by aromacandles. Some of the items included are really sweet, like the lovebirds =) I am such a girl. 

Also, my Christmas tree pop-up card was included in this treasury :

Etsy is addictive.

Su-Zanne's wedding

Hey there, I'm back! Been really really busy the past week, what with exams, and my piano exam coming up this  Wednesday. But thankfully college exams are over, and I can once again quill to my heart's content =)

My dear cousin, Su-Zanne got married yesterday, and it went beautifully =) The shoe game they played was really cute!
It goes like this : Suzanne was wearing bright red heels, and Joseph was wearing black leather shoes. Both of them sat back to back on the platform, and they exchanged one shoe. So each of them would hold a red shoe in one hand, and a black shoe in the other. The emcees would ask them a question, eg : "Who wears the pants in this relationship?" and they had to answer by lifting up one shoe! Bright Red Shoe = Su-Zanne and Black Leather Shoe = Joseph. If their answers didn't correspond, they'd have to kiss =D Very cute.

Here's a congratulatory card I made for Su-Zanne yesterday :

She's such a bubbly pleasant person to be around, and he seems like a very very nice guy as well : I see a very happy marriage ahead for this fun-loving couple! 

Sweet Lovebirds and a Snowflake

Just a few things I made over the weekend :

My first love-themed card! A pair of starstruck lovebirds gazing at each other in a big red heart. 

Code : Love01

Kinda reminds me of that childhood song : Peter and Janey sitting on a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Finally got a chance to use that silver rick-rack I've been saving up! I bought it at a Christmas fair, but never got the chance to use it.

I swear, making Christmassy things is so addictive. I'm supposed to be studying but I can't tear myself from quilling! So here's another snowflake!

Code : MS006

Comes in white, pink, blue, red and green. 

Sigh. I am so dead. It's one week to semester finals and I'm quilling instead of studying. The only subject I've touched so far is chemistry. If only academics weren't so important in today's world! Then I could keep on quilling and not worry at all =) 

Anyway. It's 11:30pm, and I'm off to study! Ta, my dears.

Shooting Stars and Sheep

This was done as a gift to a friend : he wanted a shooting star, a couple side by side, and grazing sheep.   

Quite happy with how it turned out : simple but sweet. I do think I should have kept the focus more on the couple though. Right now the viewer's focus is a little diverted because of the sheep.

It's a little as if the shooting star is gonna fall right into her hand =)

An indifferent sheep stands on the hill while the shepherd keeps watch over a sleeping lamb. And the curious little one gazes into the sky with wonder at the glittery swoosh.

I <3 my curious little one! =)
