Pink Baby Card with Ribbon and Sparkles

Yet another trip has finished and now finally really settled down in Dubai.  I really enjoyed my Taiwan trip staying with my family and caught up with some friends (and all the excessive eating leading to 2 Kg weight gain) .  But guess what?  No flying for another six months! YAY! 

So yesterday I found some polka dotted paper from my good friend Renee, and it inspired me to make a cute baby girl card.  

Cute, right?  Well ya know, just as I stopped to think what to add on to the white area after putting the scalloped border on, I saw a mark on the panel where it was sitting on my stamping block. Oh no!  All the possible mending measures fleeting through my mind and then I decided to use a sparkle to hide it (and more just for the effect cos one is really awkward HA!)   Crisis resolved. Whew.

Love these sparkles! They are actually mobile phone sparkles I bought at ART FRIEND in Singapore but work just as well.

Pink birthday card for teenager

Since after I got back from Dubai I really haven't gotten much time sitting down put the cards I made online. The reality is, I've had about a dozen of farewell gatherings with friends in Singapore - the play date mums, different groups of friends, school mums, scrapbooking friends, etc.  Nonetheless, I feel thankful to have made so many great friends within such a short time in Singapore, and so my blog's pageviews which has dropped to average 1-2 per day is just miner issue.

Apparently during the holiday season, people still have birthdays (LOL).  So I've made some birthday cards in between the Christmas card making marathon.

Here's the one I made for my niece, who's turning 15 this December.  I use my favorite Swiss dot embossing folder and Spellbinders Nestabilities dies to accomplish the layers, plus Martha Stewart butterflies stamp to stamp the butterfly, Copic colour and trim it.
