Day 71 - Sending You Lots of Hugs

Hai friends, meet again.

I took a short vacation to Batam Island and then crossed the bay to Singapore. I, actually, accompanied DH who had a meeting in Batam Island. I never expected to meet the ladies who are my friends, too. They also joined their DHs. So, with no hesitation, we went to Singapore by a ferry. We visited Universal Studio Singapore. Only in the outside. We didn't wish to go inside and enjoy the games. Noooo!

 

My friends just followed me to go to "Spotlight", a craft store in Plaza Singapura. That's all the store I could visit that day. On the following day, I went to SG with DH. Just the two of us. We had a wonderful time being together. That's "our time" that we've missed for almost 6 months.. Hehehe.. I, of course, "forced" ourselves to visit JDA and Art Friends. I bought some stamps in JDA, and most of all I love my new Zutter!! Ohlala, I finally have this tool. I had been dreamin' for this for almost a year. And the good thing, Zutter was in promo!! Only SIN$ 99 for all, incl. the book and the bag. Lovely! 


Before leaving Batam Island, Kiki Emeralda visited me. We exchanged some goodies, and I love her tea bag folding card. You know, it's good to have friend (s) wherever we go. In Singapore, I failed to meet Sylvia Chua, my Flickr friend. But she really helped me with all the MRT ways to go everywhere. Moreover, she helped me finding the best store to buy SLR camera!


Back to Jakarta, I visited Kinokuniya and bought a card magazine. I was inspired by a card in the magazine, Card Maker, and this morning I managed myself to a little imitate it. This is my card.

Supplies: SU! flower stamps & leaf die cut, Hero Arts sentiment, p.p.

The flowers are from scraps. Since I was not in the mood of coloring, so stamping on pattern paper is a solution. Quite quicker and easier with good result. 

A little imitation is okay and fine, I think, as long as we mention where we find the original one. The flowers are quite different. Because in the magazine, it used Hero Arts flower stamps. So, what else are you waiting for? Try to use all you have and create something. For me, there is no words such as "I can't". Everyone can do something if he/she wants to. 

Challenge for the card:
Divas by Design #44 - Anything Goes
Shopping Our Stash Weekly #60 - Precious (the left scraps that I have no more)
The Craft Place Challenge: Anything Goes

Ok, then. Enjoy your day and keep creating.
