all about brown

I've made a dark brown card based on sketch provided by Unscripted Sketches #85 and also the monochromatic idea from Caardvarks Monochromatic Challenge (the final challenge). It's so bad to hear that this would be the final challenge offered by Caardvarks, where this is only the first time i enter their challenge.

As I don't have any dark brown distress ink at the moment, I used blending tools to blend the Rich Cocoa Memento dye ink on the Natural card stock. Also, the lace border was stamped with rich cocoa ink to create the same color tone.

Supplies
Card Stock: White, Natural (Bazzill)
Patterned Paper: Moof
Ink: Rich Cocoa (Memento)
Edge Punch: Apron Lace (Fiskars)
Corner Punch: Corner Chomper (We R Memory Keepers)
Sticker: Happy Trails Our Adventure Grand Adhesions (K&Company)
Self-Adhesive Lace Border: from Chui

White Pen: Choose Gel Ink Pen (Pilot)

YaY! My New Tools

There are several new tools adding to my collection this week. The Martha Stewart's bone folder that I purchased from ebay last month has safely arrived on Tuesday. I was so surprised that it is far more beautiful than I saw it through Internet. All those printed flowers and blink elements on the bone folder are so nice.


Besides, I have bought two punches and some patterned papers at Smidapaper's new store last week. The new store is just AWESOME!! I wish I could possess all the products in the store awwww...

Flower Punches

Today, I've bought two new flower punches at a bookstore in Penang. The price of these punches are relatively low as compared to the other branded punch, and I've found some interesting shapes offered by this company lately. I prefer the larger flower punch (on left) and I've created some paper flowers using the larger flower punch.

These flowers are made of recycled papers

Card-making Class

Back to August, a friend of mine introduced me to the fun and interesting scrapbook world. It was the very first time I attended card-making class at Smidapaper with my old friend and a schoolmate. Since then, I've learned a lot about card-making and all the tools and stamps available for scrapbooking.

Here comes the cards I've made at the class :)

Thank You Card for A Doctor

I've made this very simple thank you card for a doctor who take care of my papa when he admitted to the hospital last month. Due to limited materials, I used the same Hero Arts clear stamp on this card, along with some patterned paper from Imaginisce.
