Thursday

I love it when kids dress up....and hold hands...:)



When batik met kebaya

I love this sweet photo of my littlest nephew J holding hands with his cousin C. Especially when they are both dressed to reflect their heritage [my mother's side of the family]. :)


Woohoo...check out the stamping I did...I even stamped on shrink plastic!  *High fives all around* For some strange reason, people like to send me stamps...I love collecting them...they look so pretty in their pristine packaging! *winks* I have more stamp sets than patterned paper [insert dramatic music to emphasize shock at startling statistic!] So, I've decided that I'm either going to use my stamps OR give them away [eh...I see predatory sharks circling me *LOL*].


I went a little crazy with the clustering here...really wanted to use up my little bits of scrap...did a little handstitching too! :)


Supplies Basic Grey, Lily Bee, Dream Street, Crate Paper and Studio Calico patterned papers, American Crafts felt thickers, Jenni Bowlin stickers, Fontwerts, Technique Tuesday and Maya Road stamps, black ink, doilies, black pen, buttons, key charm, wrinkle ribbon, trim and thread.

P/s: Thank you so much for the kind words on yesterday's post. I'm so glad that you are joining me in spreading a little cheer to a sweet little boy. You are the bestest friends! :)

This is fabulous.. Now that u mentioned I realized that yes I have hardly seen you use stamps.. you are more of a paper person than anything else... Well I know.. I am a paper addict myself.. So from one paper addict to another.. *Hi5*.. Like all your LOs.. This is another brilliant one.. Love the tiny details you have given to it...

Lynnda said...

Excellent job using your stamps! I can't fathom having more stamps than patterned paper- I have zillions of both, but the pile of pp still dwarfs the stamps.
