Thursday

Thursday's desk - this week's decorated box


 Found another sturdy box and just had to decorate it of course...*winks*


Started with this lovely sturdy box which had a nice sheen and a gold edging.


Since I used a patterned paper base, I used a solid mat for my embellishment cluster to have a visual pop.


Happy Thursday friends!

Another Tuesday, another page from the gratitude journal - homemade CNY baked treats

 


Happy Tuesday friends! Today's page from the gratitude journal is all about loving what you do...like homemade CNY baked treats. :)

I've hardly had time to bake treats this year so working on this page reminded me of how I used to enjoy baking...and should probably get back to it. It's so easy to just buy something from the store. But there's something about making food from scratch that I really enjoy...*winks*

Make Stuff Monday - a quick upcycled decorated paper bag



In today's Make Stuff Monday, I'm sharing this quick upcycled decorated paper bag. :)


I started with this sturdy dark grey paper bag from Drunk Elephant. The inside of the bag is lime green so I went with a matching patterned paper for a coordinated look and feel.



Mainly flat elements for easy storage and transport. Finished with pearl mist of course. *winks*

Friday's decorated box project

 


Here it is...getting back into mixed media in Friday's decorated box project!:)


Started with this sturdy Kraft box from Kiehl's....that provided a great canvas to play with. *winks*



I went in with clear gesso first to create a base texture for the paints.



Then added flat elements for easier storage and transport.


Finished with a pearl mist for sparkly sheen.


Enjoy your weekend friends!

This week's single eye drawing (again)

 


Yep. This is all I have drawn this week. Time has been scarce. But I really like it. The fluorescent pencils are a real game changer. Can you see the "glow"? So much fun! :)


P/s: I have been dabbling with some mixed media...more to share in a bit!

Workspace Wednesday - the most fancy French toast

 


Happy Wednesday friends! Just wanted to share the most fancy French toast I had in Ho Chi Minh two weeks ago. It was just a palm-sized piece of toast topped with whipped cream, caramelized apple and mango and finished with cinnamon and a mint leaf. It was a really lovely sweet treat to finish off breakfast. :)

A page from the gratitude journal - a colourful plate

 


This was last April when I was experimenting with one plate meals with lots of colour and nutrients. Dad had a heart attack the previous month and hasn't had much of an appetite so I had to make meals look aesthetically appealing. 


I need to go back to these one plate meals again. :)

Make Stuff Monday - gift-wrapped birthday pressie

 


My cousin's birthday is coming up and this is her gift-wrapped birthday pressie. My preference for birthday pressie is always a box filled with me time goodies like skincare, makeup and art supplies. But this year she got just one item, a rather pricey one...that came in its own fancy box.


So I wrapped up the fancy box with gold wrapping tissue...


And added some fun details so that she can't guess what's inside. *winks*

Friday's desk - mini paper bag

 


Happy Friday! Just a quick decorated mini bag to share. The fun girly was fussy cut from a Jane Davenport paper wrapper. Just added patterned paper and a hello diecut. :)


It was a lovely mini bag to start with... some embossed details. Got it from a Gucci Beauty event.

Enjoy your weekend friends!

Workspace Wednesday - this week's 2 eye drawings

 


Life has been busy as always and I've managed 2 eye drawings so far this week. Wish I had more time to play but I did have a little...plus the reorganisation of my desk and art supplies is progressing well (slow but steady...lots of re-tweaks). 


I did push myself to try a different (and challenging) angle. I like how it turned out.

Dinner at PS Cafe

 


The folks really enjoy going to events with me because they get to dress up and go to town. 


Last weekend, we went to 2 back-to-back events then met up with my sister for dinner.


Dad could indulge in his fave fish and chips....and we all had sticky date pudding for dessert. :)


Happy Tuesday friends!

Monday's page from the gratitude journal - new scent

 


Monday's page from the gratitude journal is about the new perfume I got from the bestie for Christmas. It's a really sweet scent. :)

P/s: If you have been noticing diecut sentiments on my projects recently, it's because I had a diecutting day and went amassed a whole boxful to use for a long time. *winks*
