....love!

Still feeling glad I'm back home taking the time to sit down & sip on my tea,not rushing around for the chinese ny festivities. The atmosphere in Singapore for CNY is, I admit, better but really what is the point of atmosphere if not for the presence of family? Family's what it's all about at the end of the day isn't it?

Anyways, still being on holiday as it is enabled me to make a few more cards. Love-themed one, that is. I hope you likey :)

First up, I've got a card I made yesterday for the Heroarts 'heartfelt' challenge this week.

The idea is to stretch the way you use your stamps, so I made a few 'petals' with a heart stamp, rolled the edges around a pencil & made like a flower. All stamps are from HA except the polka dot line from PTI. Check out the HA challenge here.

Next up, a simple card with my fave subject. Tea! :)

I love this little teacup image from Lizzie Anne's singles, it was so perfect with the sentiment from PTI's 'wedding favors'. The teacup image was stamped twice, coloured in with Copics, cut out then dimensionalised. The small hearts are stamps form PTI's 'love songs' set. Love it :) I'm kinda hoping to get a tea related stamp set soon, I've been holding back for a really good one. Anyone have any ideas where I can find a good one?

In the meantime, Happy Friday!
