Purple birthday trishutter card

 HB110

Another trishutter card for this year hehehe.......another full front view type which I like very much :). However, I'm still experimenting on the other types so that I would give it a try at least once to make it different from how I used to make them before. I wish that I am able to speed things up coz I work so slow these days. Trying my best though....

This particular one has purple colours all around the card and I'm making use of the paper I have available .....you might have seen this flower pattern paper before.....as I'm trying to finish up whatever pattern paper I have left  in my collection so that I can get new ones in future :). Almost all the areas in the card is filled up with pattern paper and other embellishments, so I left the pop up area to be used as a place to write personal wishes....so that the area where the giver of the card writes down his or her wishes would stand out once the receiver opens up the card. I like it that way :).

You can take a closer look at it and see how it opens up from the video I uploaded on Youtube below: 

 

January 2013 Blog Giveaway

Peace be upon everyone on this lovely day :)

I'm very excited to hold another giveaway this year and hopefully I'll be able to consistently do so for each month of the year to show my thanks to all my loyal readers. For the first giveaway this year, I'll giving away the trishutter card you see at the photo above. Hope you all like it ;)

I've been getting a lot of feedbacks from my loyal readers the past few months and a lot of them were disappointed when at one point I didn't allow those who didn't have blogs to participate in my giveaways, because they only have a Facebook account. So for this year, I'll be giving everyone a chance to participate in my giveaway, provided that everyone who participates will in return help promote my giveaway too, at their blogs or at their Facebook. Easy right? So now everyone can join. Unfortunately I see that even though I make it easy for people to join, still a lot who joined did not promote my giveaway at their blog or at their Facebook....that's sad.....so I hope that if you truly want to join and win a prize, please follow the rules so that if your number is chosen by the Random Number Generator, at least I won't have a reason not to pick you as a winner.

I was thinking and thinking last night of what to giveaway for the first month of the year....my first giveaway for this year.....and suddenly TING!!!! I immediately thought of a Thinking of You tri shutter card that I made in 2011....you can view it at the link HERE. It was not 100% completed at the time, but I blogged about it anyways because I wanted to show an example of a card I decorated using plain paper that was stamped with patterns made by clear stamps. It was all because at that time, I didn't have a lot of pattern paper to use as decorations on my handmade cards. So I had a lot of fun stamping all those clear stamps! hehehe. :D

So now it's 100% completed. I added a couple of white paper that was cut with scallops shape around it to be used as a space to write personal wishes.....and a soft pink pop up heart in between them.....and at the front of the card, I added some wordings with some felt rose flowers.

So I will be giving this card away to one of my lucky readers after the giveaway ends. I shall blog about the giveaway soon. ;) Don't forget to participate!! hehe! ;)

Pink and white rose tri shutter card

HB109

After so long of not designing cards due to my ill health, it feels great being able to do so now. And even better when I get to try something new for myself this year. I'm happy that finally I can post a card design here today on the first day of the year, yay!!

I've always loved making tri shutter cards but something about making them sometimes stops me from making more. Probably because I am not comfortable decorating the front view of the card with less space on it. So I opted to make the full front type of tri shutter card instead. Besides the reason that I could also make use of the pop up part inside it when I make them this way. Since I love making pop up so much, so it was a win win thing for me. I'm definitely more comfortable making them this way.

I also love the fact that this year I get to use some die cut patterns I made using the die cut machine. It's something new for me to try out and I gotta say it's really an awesome experience. I really loved it a lot. I hope to make more craft products using the die cut patterns. I don't have a lot though since I'm just a beginner....plus it's pretty darn expensive to buy.....so I'm collecting them bit by bit hehehe.

I can only make about 4-5 of this design because of the pattern paper I used for this card was given to me by my dear friend and I don't have a lot of it.....hehehe....perhaps I can find a substitute pattern paper for it someday that would suit the design. I really love making those cute rose felt flowers and the pop up inside the card. The white space area on the right and left side of the card is for writing personal wishes.
