Featured!

It might not be much, but it's a start. :)

For Malaysians, look out for the owls tutorial on Remaja, 1st of June 2012 issue, page 148.

Trial and Error

They're 3.5" books, for stitching practices.

I have to admit, my stitches aren't neat as other bookbinders, and my works always borderline the sloppy/ messy kind. So I guess why not go all out and make some sloppy and messy (and funky) kind of books that I like?

Hence, the wacky stitches. Still have a lot to improve on, but I'm loving these. :)

Let's have a messy kind of fun!

(The above is too complicated, hard to read, too many colours, and over-accessorized heee. Let's do a better one next time!)

Creativity is contagious

So pass it on.

And I'm going Instagram-craze!

Because I miss making this!

I still love making a simple design like this.

Quick-shredded quilled owls.

It reminds me that simplicity captures hearts still.

Paper flower hand bouquet

Thanks Martha! Thanks Youtube! for the lovely tutorials on how to make these!

It's an experiment, which involved paper, messy poster colour, glue, wires, tapes and paper strings.

It's nothing grand, just a small scale hand bouquet that was made out of curiosity. (It's more like I wanted to try my hands on new flower designs but don't know what to do with them LOL).

Surprisingly, these flowers withhold themselves stronger than I expected. Even after few battering, throwing, slumping, pulling etc. So you see... they are totally child-proof. :)

Perfect Day.

It's always a joy to attend another crafter's big, special event. You got to see all the gorgeous handmade touch, and you always know it's going to be a super-duper creative show-off event haha. I've known Saza during our first Crafters Get-Together back in 2010, we clicked instantly due to our paper craze, and spend lots of time shopping, sharing and chatting all crafts related topic.

She got engaged few months back so this card was made to commemorate the day.

Congratulations Saza! Can't wait for that big, crafty wedding!

Out of coverage

I was outside my usual craft-comfort zone, out of sources, and desperately needed to make a quick card. All I have are white cards, scissors, and glue. And pencils.

The trick is to make do with things you have, instead of things you need to have. Limited sources definitely does not equal to limited imagination.

Look around. There's always something somewhere that you create out of nothing.
