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*
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!

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!
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. :)
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. :)
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...
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!
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.
Well friends, this was the wood tray collection back in January 2023. Think it has swelled? *winks*
