Christmas Invitation




Hi friends,

Again, I was asked to make Christmas invitations for the Sunday School kids. I had to make 225 pieces. So, for the mass product, I used simple creation.

Sources: Magnolia Tree die cut, shiny green cardstocks.

The inside of the invitation would be made by the committee. It was so much fun to make such mass-produced cards.. Really fun...

Simple Card




Hi friends,

At school, I manage the program called English Proficiency Program. I am the Director of Study of the program. This program is for JS and HS students. You can find all activities here.

The Regional Academic Manager who works in Jakarta would come to my school She would give us a short course for 2 days. I made a card for her, to thank her visit. And the ATC is for my excellent student. I gave him a book, and I inserted this ATC.

I hope you enjoy my creation.

Inspired By...


Hi friends,

Today was awesome. After having this and that with the events of my daughters' schools, and of course after having a siesta, I made these two cards. These were inspired by the batik cloths I bought yesterday. I went to some stores to find 40 orange batik cloths.  I was unlucky since that color is an uncommon color. But I was so fortunate to find these turquoise batik cloths.

This is the first one.


I stamped the Hero Arts background stamp on to the Versamark then heat embossed with white embossing powder. Then, I cut it into 10 pieces of inchies. The neenah paper was stamped with the same stamp using Walnut Stain Distress Ink. I did the same thing with the butterfly. The sentiment is from Tuesday Technique. Here is the closer look on the card.


 The second one is here:


This time I colored the Hero Arts stamp with the Art & Graphic Twin from ZIG. Sprayed the stamp and stamped on the watercolor paper. This is the stamping technique that I like most. The sentiment is from MFT. Here is the closer look on the card.



"Inspired By" is the theme of the challenge I am holding right now in my Facebook account. If you would like to enjoy and meet Indonesian crafters, please don't hesitate to add me as your Facebook friend.

Ok, then. That's all for today. Happy weekend to all of you.

Turquoise again...




Hi friends,

I can't stop using turquoise paper. Because they are still lying on my craft table. I made this one using (again) the Hero Arts Dandelion stamp. I love the dots on the paper. I heat embossed it. The musci background is also from Hero Arts.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. They are all old stamps.



Well, now, I don't feel guilty having so many new stamps. I don't neglect the old ones. Just like a true friendship, I make new friends, but I never forget the old ones...

Have you dug your drawers? How many old stamps are lying there untouched for so many months?

Hello friends,

The love of flower stamps


Hi friends,

Today, I managed myself to make 2 cards. The time like this is so rare. Everyday, I am pretty busy with all the stuffs at school. I manage 6 classes this semester with only 2 teachers including me. I myself teach in 3 classes. I also manage craft classes in 2 schools. It's an amazing job but it's really time consuming when it comes to the preparation time.

So, these days are the days for the Final Exams. So I don't need to be at school. That means I will be free for almost 2 weeks. Hurrrayyyy...

Here is the first card. I used stamps and punches from Stampin Up. The black pattern paper is from Violet Crush Kaiser. I love this paper pad. All papers are so beautiful that I bought 3 pads. Hehehe...




The second card was a simple one. I was inspired by Vera, who used the old stamp from Hero Arts. Her card reminded me to open again the drawer of the Hero Arts clings. I found this Dandelion and other flowers. I used Neenah paper for the first time. Because I just saw the pack between all the solid papers. Hehehe..



Take my advice: dig your drawers where you put old stamps. Use them again and again. Then you won't feel guilty buying new stamps.. Agree? LOL...

Pansy Flowers




Hi friends,

I was inspired by Stampin Up! cards using Pansy stamp+punch in Pinterest. I made this card based on one card there (sorry, I forgot the link). I revised a little bit by adding another flower. The pattern papers are from New Bloom, Trimcraft. In one 6x6 pad, all the papers are so adorable. I think I will use them more often.




I love frantage, especially  Shabby White Embossing Enamel. It is sooo versatile. Don't you think so?

Roses, why not?




Hi friends,

However, I also like roses on my creations. Here is one of them. I just made it. It's the first time for me using this technique. I stamped 2 different stamps on the same area. I used the Stampamagic. I used Stampin Up! stamps for the roses. The sentiment stamp is from Papertrey Ink. The frame die cut is from MFT.
Here is the card..






Do you also like roses?

For the love of turquoise




Hello friends,

Today is my birthday. And I want to share the color I love. As a crafter, I love all colors. However, I have a color I love most. It's turquoise. I love silver jewellery.  So, I was inspired from the color of my bracelet, ring and pendant. Here is the picture.



Sometimes, people tend to send a bouquet of roses for someone. Especially on a birthday. I also adore flowers. I love smelling the roses. But my favorite flower  since '80s is Hibiscus. Still in turquoise ambiance, I made this card.


What is your favorite color and flower? Share with me...




PS: I had a wonderful birthday with my daughters. We didn't celebrate it, just prayed for my birthday and we had a usual dinner. I love simple life..

I managed myself to make 10 French cards using Eiffel stamp from Hero Arts. They are available for sale at Galleried Lafayette, Pacific Place, Jakarta. If you happen to be in Jakarta, you may check them in person. Lol.. They look prettier in person.







I love this Eiffel stamp. The sentiments are also from the stamp set of Hero Arts stamp. And the papers are not for sale. So, these cards are a Limited Edition. grab them fast...
