I don't know how many times I stamped & made this lovely card.... but truly this is one of my favourite stamp. The Lili of the Valley's "wedding Couple" stamp. I think I posted this stamp 3,4 times in the past on my blog but I actually made this card more than 30/40 times... lol. Everytime I am making this card, so much in rush & always forget to take a photo. This one is my family relative that lives abroad. I sent this wedding card to all different continents on earth by now. Wow. I hope they are going to LOVE this card together with a Tiffany wedding gift :)
Happy Wedding everyone!

I borrowed this amazing Stampin' Up stamp set called "All in the Family" (see below). I had to sketch before I start stampin on it. I only coloured in the faces, skin & hair; all clothing are stamped on the coloured / patterned paper, cut & stick on it. I requested all individuals what type/ colours of shirts, pants etc they wanted, so this was one of the tough piece of work. Oh my; I am grad finally I finish this. This is now air mailed to Japan for special someone ... I hope they like it.

While surfing on the net, I saw a card looks similar above. I just LOVE this "Sail Away" stamp & surely I will be busy with this again. Hope you like it too :)

I don't usually "do" quick card but here is one. Took me less than an hour. This is a record.
Stampin' Up from very new 2011 Mini Catalogue (UK), called "Sail Away" stamp. LOVE it. Also I find very rare to purchase single stamp from their catalogue; usually comes with many little stamps in a set. Just received a box of "goodies" looks like from Germany. Yes, I have few new "things" :) YaY.
Never have enough money to purchase all of their Stapim' Up goodies & new catalogues/ products are keep popin' up.... NVM, happy crafting everyone!

I felt like doing "heat embossing" & "distressing" on the weekend. Another quick card. The stamps are from Inkadinkado. Perfect men's card. I didn't expected to be so nicely done at the end. Everyone absolutly LOVED this card :). Happy Sailing to you all!

Hero Arts - Vintage stamp set of 4 stamps (£22) (@ left), and Musical Collage stamp (Large; £11) (@ right).
A class was ran by Graham Hansford @ The Glitter Pot earlier this year. I had Graham @ second time; he is very talented crafter. His crafting knowledge is just unspeakable; I learned so much in a day spend time with him. He also bring some crafting gadgets to show us all & his various techniques are something that I would continue to use in my future crafting career. Truly amazing.
Good ideas for Men's cards.

New 2011 Woodware stamp set called "Patch An Owl" (£10). Yes, I bought this stamp set after I attended a class @ The Glitter Pot in Surrey.
I heard from few people that Francoise Read is one of the very professional card crafter before I attended the class but truly, seriously, she was really good in every way. Prepared well in advance so that we had everything we need to make a card, all cut into the right sizes, good paper selection (latest!), using ribon, punches, stamping, could choose paper colours etc. I was truly satisfied! She was previously a teacher (?) so as you can imagine, noob like me could follow her easily all the way.
We made two card above in the morning; Oh my; so nice!

This is my third 'Men's Shirt' card that I made from Papercraft Inspirations Magazine template few months ago. Always an issue with Men's card idea; this is just fantastic! I really like this card. Stick to 2 colours tone & it looks quite nice indeed :)
The sentiment is from Personal Impression - Paula P's stamp collection (which I really love).
I went a bit too far with little details so it took me good couple of hours to make this...
