October CCC

Hi friends,

Been a while not posting anything here. These are the cards for exchanging event in Deborah Nolan's blog: October CCC.


This is my card for Annette Hjerpaasen in Norway. I made it based on the sketch, the theme ( I chose friendship), and the colors. The colors mentioned were nutmeg, fawn, taupe, eggshell, burgundy. Tot ell you the truth, I am not familiar with names of colors. I only know colors of rainbow...LOL... I said to Deborah, what I knew was only burgundy, because my hair is in burgundy color now... ehkk...


And this is the card I got from Heather Doran in Ireland. She said that this is the farthest she's ever sent a card all the way to Indonesia... Thank so much Heather, for the pretty card, the rub-on, some gems and silvery string. Love them all...


I'm so glad to always participate in Deborah's CCC. I meet another card maker around this globe. We make new friendships every month, at least 2 new friends each month. Isn't that beautiful?

Thanks for looking, friends...

Cards With MS Border Punches

Hi friends,

I have several MS border punches, and I made several cards with those punches. The purpose was to show my friends in Multiply account that they can buy those have from me. You know that MS punches are not that easy
to find in my country since they are sold abroad and quite expensive.

Her
e are the cards. The bird card was adopted from one card in Papercrafts Mag, July-August issue.


Thanks for looking.

(PS.: If you need the MS punch-outs, you can go here)

September CCC

Hi friends,

Been a while.. This is my card for Jenny Swords in Ireland, as I joined the September CCC held by Deborah Nolan. As I forgot the sketch and the color choices, so I just made the one with Friendship theme.

I used Hero Arts clear stamps for the swirls and the flower. Punches are from MS and PB. The white pen was the one from Pilot (I bought it not on purpose on my trip to Schenzen)

And the card below is the one from Rikke Poulsen from Denmark. I "met" her in August CCC.


Actually she was not the one who had to send me a card. We just did some swap. Beside this card, she also sent me some petite roses, paper flowers and colorful nets. So lovely. Thanks Rikke...

And I am still waiting for the card from the lady who was supposed to send me the card...

Thanks for looking, friends...

Autumn Pics by Barb Especially for Me

Hi friends,

In the countries with four seasons, right now is Autumn. I ever mentioned that I've never seen any autumn happening in my country. Barbara, then, told me that she would upload the pics of the Autumn she would have in her country. And she did. She sent me a Flickr mail telling me that today she would post those pics.

When I went through her post, wow... I can tell you that those pics really took my breath away. So beautiful, indeed. I think Autumn is the loveliest season among those. You can see the pics in Barb's Autumn post. Barb is so thoughtful. She took some pics especially for me. I can sense that while taking those pics, she was thinking of me. That's so lovely, Barb.

I wish I were there once again to feel the moment of Autumn. (The first time coming to USA was on October, some years ago. Houston seemed not giving me lots of chances to feel that Autumn at that time. But I could smell the pine, see the squirrels and spend so much time walking).

Thanks so much, Barb...

WCMD 2010 - Cards of Togetherness Among Indonesians

Hi friends,

How's your WCMD? We had a fabulous day. Though we we
re separated by roads, islands and oceans, but we can connect each other via Facebook. I asked my friends to make a card on that day and upload it on each wall. It was great. Everyone made one card. Even there was a friend who never made a card, she made one. Wow.. Isn't that fabulous? Now, it's me who have to update all the cards made by us. Posting a photo in Facebook is seen only once and then forgotten. So, it is made purely to treasure them in one post.

Here are the cards made by us. They are all gorgeous and exposing that through cards, we are friends. I arrange them in alphabetical order.

Ayu - Jakarta
Dwita - Cirebon
Eva - Bogor
Evieta - Singapore
Hany - USA
Iin - Yogyakarta
Jane Albertine - USA
Jovita - Jakarta
Monika Reeck - Germany
Niken - Salatiga
Rieka - Jakarta

Rina - Jakarta

Susan - Malang
Tanika - Bali
Vera Rhuhay - Surabaya
Vina - Semarang

Yenni Nathalia - Singapore

Thank you, my friends, for playing together last Saturday. I really treasure our friendship. Keep crafting, keep creating more and more cards. Love you all.

Thanks for looking all the cards...

You're Truly Amazing - WORLD CARD MAKING DAY

Helllooo my friends,

Happy World Card Making Day
October 2, 2010
I feel so glad that we've finally come to this day. My friends and I also commit to make a card and show the card on our own Wall in our Facebook. We are about 15 ladies. I do hope they are doing on their cards now. I'll show their creations on Monday in this blog, because it's me who promised to keep them as treasures. (as in Facebook, once and forgotten). Please go to my Facebook. Then click the names that were tagged, as most of them join me for this special day.

This is the card, based on the colors given in OTW Craftiness Challenge #27 this week. I was inspired by Jenny's card, as I saw this challenge in her blog.
This color combo is also part of the colors in EBTK Challenge this week.


And this is the kind of flower that I'm addicted to make. I won't get bored making ones. And this looks 3D, so I enter this card to join DDSB challenge this week with 3D It and Cuttlebug Challenges with: What Made Us Happy.


I used Hero Arts stamps for all: Old French Writing for the layered flower, the sentiment is a clear stamp, and the for background is Dot Cling. The leaves are punched using a big punch from Punch Bunch.

What do you do today? Have you made your own card? Do you join any blogs that have giveaways? Wow.. today must be a fabulous day for all of us.

Have a pleasant day and enjoy...
