Featured in Papercraft Inspirations

 

About a month ago, I was approached by Miss Lucy Evans who is the Operations Editor from Papercraft Inspirations, which is one of Britain's leading card making magazines to have one of my handmade cards featured in their April 2013 issue. I was really surprised to get this opportunity and was really happy because it's one of my favourite magazines from United Kingdom. Even though it's just a small feature, I'm still thrilled about it. Never thought that one day one of my handmade cards would be featured in this magazine. ^.^

In each issue of the magazine, they will put together a two-page gallery of wonderful, inspirational cards that they have spotted from blogs from around the world. And my "Just For You" card was one of the lucky cards that was chosen for this two-page gallery section of the magazine. The magazine is already on sale in the UK starting from the 14th of March and overseas around 2-6 weeks later.

I've bought the magazine before when I was staying in Kuala Lumpur some years back. It's not easy to find them here in Alor Setar. But it can however be subscribed so that we won't miss a copy of their issues :).

Thank you so much to Papercraft Inspirations for giving me this wonderful opportunity to have my handmade card and blog featured in their magazine. Hopefully more card makers from around the world would check out my blog and find some inspiration from it.  I shall never forget this sweet moment and will always be grateful for it :).

My blog featured in InTrend Magazine :)

:) I was so surprised when I was informed by one of my blog readers yesterday that my blog was featured in InTrend Magazine June 2010 issue. I couldn't believe it at first.....until shortly after that I received an email from another customer mentioning that she knew about my card blog from the Intrend magazine! :D I had no idea that I was one of the bloggers featured in the Gaya Hidup : Klik and Blog segment. So, a big thank you to Asri for informing me hehehehe.....otherwise I would have never known about it! LOL! I didn't have the time to look for the magazine yesterday, so this afternoon I went to search for it.....luckily it's available at a nearby shop. :) This is the first time I bought this magazine....quite an interesting magazine I must say....quite good in quality hehehe......

In short.....they mentioned about how my customers are able to share their ideas with me in producing a personalized handmade card for them. It's true that some of the custom made handmade cards I've created here were sometimes produced with the basic ideas given to me by my customers.......in the initial stage when we discussed about the colors of choice, themes, wordings, and what type of pop ups they prefer.....I do love to know and find out what my customers really want in their personalized  handmade cards. This is to ensure that they will get what they can't get in the usual card stores. It's important that I materialize their dreams. :) And by knowing what they want....I will try my level best to make it happen for them ....God willing :).

I would also like to say a big thank you to InTrend magazine for featuring my blog this time around.......even though I did not get to be the "Chosen Blogger"....it doesn't matter....as long as I was featured in it hehehe. It's an honor really :). Mucho mucho gracias everyone! :)
