Papercrafts: Handmade Note Cards

Silicone Stamps

Got this lovely silicone stamps from Japan Home (Daiso) for only 66Php. I challenged myself to create note cards using this stamp set and the design and scheme from a shop paper packaging. It's nice to take challenges once in a while for a bit of fun!

Papercraft: Bath Door Sign

Letting it dry before hanging...

It's been a while since I made something out of paper... This weekend I decided to do general cleaning and re-arrange furnishings in our home. I re-decorated our bath and thought of adding a door sign. It's easy to buy a bath door sign from home depots but it's more fun if it's personalized and handmade.

Materials: Scrap patterned papers, Fuzzy Wire, Trimmings, Bella Stamp, Prismacolor, Chipboard letters, Gel pens, Markers, Clothespin decor by Jerosha, Adhesives and Crafting tools

Piano Pop-up Card

This was an old project... I forgot to post about it here because I have kept it for a very long time that I have forgotten about it... It was the last card I made from my previous working space before the flood... I just found it yesterday when I'm going over my stash.

It's a piano pop-up card. I saw the basic pattern from a Japanese craft book then I just added my design on it. I love this because it was my first attempt to use black, silver and bronze on a card. I usually use vibrant colors for my cards. I hope you like it, thanks :)

Dolls: Lip Painting

I accidentally damaged Abbey's lips while cleaning her. Good thing there are tutorials about doll lip painting. I followed the one from Puchicollective except on varnish or sealer application which I followed the manufacturer's instruction.

Materials: Semco Acrylic Paints, extender (but in my case I'm using a waterbased paint, I just used a small amount of water), Golden polymer varnish or any clear varnish for acrylic paints (either matte, gloss or any desired effect) - important to apply sealer to protect the paint and painting tools. Don't forget to protect other parts of your doll from getting paint stain, I wrapped her with cling wrap before proceeding with the lip painting.

Bratz Costume Party Yasmin

I really love all my collection but I'm sending this little angel to make a friend smile inspite of her worries. This doll is for her because she once told me that if she'll have a daughter for her next child, she will name her Angela which will match her son's name, Angelo. She truly adores my collection - be it about crafts or dolls. She always browse my page because she enjoys being here... And I'm really happy to be able to cheer her up in my little ways. I always pray for her to be strong and happy.

Say hello to your new mom, Yasmin... I'm sure she'll take a good care and love you...
