Here’s My Little Monster decorating his pancake! Ethan is such an artist. While waiting for his food in restaurants, he will often doodle or take pictures using my cellphone’s camera. And when the food arrives, he sometimes re-arrange how the food was served … he really couldn’t contain the artist in him! He’s always doing something creative.
I used My Little Monsters – Share Your Toys, Mind Your Manners and Play Nice (I love and adore the names of each paper!).
The papers from this line are so colorful and have very playful designs perfect for “our little monsters”!

Here’s a layout I did for my friend’s niece, Julia. The moment I saw this photo I knew already what papers to use. I have always wanted to explore the combination of yellow, purple, green and black on my layout and these colors are exactly on these lines: Posh Posies and Little Black Dress. I’m happy to be able to mix and match these two lines.
To create this layout:
1. Use a white cardstock as the base. Place a mask at left side of the layout. Spray yellow mist and remove mask. Let it dry.
2. Mat a 4″ x 6″ photo on Black Tie Affair and Dinner with Friends papers. Adhere at the bottom of the layout.
3. Cut flowers from Mod and Swanky papers. Embellish the frame with these flowers. Put buttons on each center of the flower.
4. Place title as shown.
5. Optional: Doodle lines on masked image.
Happy creating!

October 5 is World’s Teachers’ Day! I’d like to greet all the teachers in the world who has touched so many lives by their caring and loving hands. Happy Teachers’ Day too to my mom, my first and greatest teacher. My mom is a professional high school teacher for almost twenty five years and I’m so proud that she didn’t only made a difference in our lives but to many children as well.
Anyway, here are the cards Ethan and I made for his teachers last year (Ethan helped a little ; )
It was my first time to use this color scheme – deep red, yellow orange, light blue, white and black. I love how this turned out! The rich color of red is just right for the light blue background.
The letter “t” is a negative part of a chipboard block. Actually it’s a leftover. I painted it with black and doodled the frame.
materials used: Daisy Bucket Playful Petals – Gabby, Perfect Harmony – Hadley, Velvet Elements – Kisses and Fairy Dust, Rub ons – Words, and Paper ribbon – Strawberry.
others: chipboard alpha, white pen, cardstock, button, stamping ink
Thanks for looking!
