Happy Thursday friends! Here's a page from the gratitude journal. My first Foreo cleansing device that my sister bought me 5 years ago died...and cleansing hasn't been the same until my new pink one came along!Yep...I waited for a sale for like 3 months. And got 30% off and in a sweet pink colour! She's so pretty!:)
Really had lots of fun with this decorated envelope. The "flowers bloomed " sentiment was cut out from a pastry cake box. I added stickles for extra sparkle. *winks*
If you are wondering about all the stamping I've been sharing of late, I did them a long time ago...just trying to use up all my stash. *winks*
I am loving the aqua with purple combo. What do you think?
So we headed to the city for the day on mum's birthday. :)
We went to a Thai restaurant for lunch and then went to a L'Occitane event at the same mall. Mum and dad really love the L'Occitane hand creams and this time they got to try more products (and scored samples!). :)
After that, it was another feeding time for the "kids"...they had some pastry and coffee. Then a little shopping before we walked to another mall to have dinner with my sister. And we finished the day with an ice-cream birthday cake for mum. :)
Lots of happy mail and packaging bits on this layout. :)
Yes friends! Really having fun decorating these Tiffany blue paperbags...here is bag#2! Added some purple glittered goodness!:)
I will share bag#3 next week! *winks*
I really enjoy pages from my gratitude journal as a way to remember the good things in life that I had. Like this cute pot of succulents. Because this gal may be good at a lot of things but keeping succulents alive is not one of them. *LOL* In my defence, two stems are still fighting on so let's stay positive! :)
It's a brand new week friends! Let's start getting stuff done! *upbeat music plays in the background*
You know the part where I do a daily watercolour floral painting and an eye drawing practice? That ball dropped last week...*LOL* Oh well, too many balls and not quite enough time is my excuse. :)
I did get this piece done this morning. *high fives all around*
Happy week friends! Stay hydrated!
Yes friends, this gal found a whole stack of paperbags and got to decorating them! *winks*
Have a great weekend friends! :)
Yes friends! It's Wednesday yet again! This week has been such a blur so far considering I spent two of the days with the folks at the hospital for separate medical appointments. Not sure how the public medical system works in your country but here there's a lot of waiting for each "segment" like taking weight, blood pressure, blood etc.
Anyway, here's the last floral watercolour piece I did on Sunday. Hopefully I get some time to paint in the next few days. :)
Yes friends! This is upcycled Loccitane envelope #2! :)
Even took the Stickles out to play! Trying to use them all up as I downsize my craft supplies stash.
It's been really lovely filling up my Gratitude Journal with random photos from my phone, reminding me to take stock of the little moments that make life just that little bit better. Yes friends, we are into the second half of 2023 and it's been really challenging so far. Hang on...we are in this together. Stay strong. *sweaty high fives all around because of the sweltering heat*
Great week ahead friends! *happy music plays in the background*
Wait...what...is it Friday already? Didn't quite do a daily eye drawing this week...*sad music plays in the background*
I did get a few drawings in...*upbeat music plays in the background*
And I am quite happy with the ones I did draw. :)
I shall do better next week *more upbeat music plays in the background*
P/s: Enjoy your weekend friends! :)
I recently attended a Loccitane event and scored some freebies in this lovely yellow envelope...which I had to decorate of course. :)
Here's the bright yellow envelope before its makeover. *winks*
Is it the middle of the week already? Here is the piece on my desk this Wednesday morning. I really love the bold and vibrant colours from my Sennelier watercolours.:)
Happy Monday friends! Since you know I love birdies but always "struggle" to draw/paint them in the right proportions (read: my birds are always a tad chubby...*winks*), I've decided that I shall devote some time in the second half of 2023 to get a little better at birds *uplifting music plays in the background*.
