Christmas Cards from friends

Got this lovely small card and lots of goodie from Ivy. She is very generous in giving small gifts to me this year. I love her decorated envelop with some snowflakes stamps. Lovely
Agnes was kind enough to sent me a card too. Thanks Agnes.

Christmas swap (Received)

This was the gifts that I receive from my partners from the Agnes Christmas swap. Here is what I send to my partners.

This was what I received from Angelina(caca). A bit disappointment where I received a huge decorative sock without any handmade gifts inside :(
Here was what is in the sock, 3 pom poms, a small card and some candies.
Is the cherry pom pom the handmade gift ?? I assume it is part of the decoration of the sock.
The second swap was more exciting, I got this nicely wrapped Christmas gift from Jeslyn.
Gosh~~ see how much handmade gifts that I got. Eight ~!
I love her pom pom santa, angel and angel accessories the most. They look simply too cute... Thanks Jeslyn for these lovely gifts.

Christmas card 2009 #2

Rush, rush, rush...

Finally there are out for mailing last Tuesday.
I understand that it might not reach US on time. But at least I sent them all out.

The above was the initial snowman card that I made, I felt something is still missing until I added a piece of gold card on top of it and it looks more pretty now.

One of my favorite card of this year. I love the small card on the envelop. The red background of the card I make from recycle paper and and it looks great. My friend told me it looks more like a Chinese new year card. What do you think??
More cards~



I made the card below after I finish all my Christmas Card, does the stacking of elephant looks cute to you?

Recycle Envelops

Since I start doing online selling, wrapping up parcel and package is part of my task.

I like orders in Pos Express and I just need to put the item at the envelop and seal it.

But Pos Express has it's limitation as big bulky items such as bags, pouch are not able to fit in to it.

Pos Laju is the best, you can use anything to wrap and they will just accept. I am using those paper bags as envelops to post them using Post Laju. It was actually my friends idea. As my colleagues order Starbucks and Sandwich often, so there is a lot of these paper bags around the office. Throwing them on the bin seems like a waste and it is too soft to use it daily as a shopping bag.

The is the latest parcel I sent using Post Laju. Just put the handle inside and stick the edges with tapes and it is ready for postal.

Here are some paper bags that I collect. Any brown color paper bags can be use for either Register Post or Post Laju. So I have a bunch of these paper bags at my kitchen.
For me, using a brand new envelop to wrap parcel, when the parcel reach the receiver, it will be very crumble up as well. Why not using these paper bags and post your parcel in further. It's environment friendly. Do you care what envelops your sender use to sent to you?

Christmas Swap 2009 (sent)

It's been sometime that I haven't join any swap. I missed those days from the FAA Lucky Parcel swap. The excitement and joy on unwrapping and revealing those goodies.

I have join a Christmas swap from Agnes. Here is the items that I post to my 2 partners. I didn't capture every item that I put into the sock and the box, will post on the links and more pictures after my partners got their hands on this special gifts I sent over. Here is the detail items that Agnes got from me.
I received 1 of my Christmas Gift, but I was quite disappointed on the items I received ~~! Will post them in my next post then. I hope I'll get something better on my 2nd parcel. Pray hard!~

Merci + Lace Stamp

Can't understand why I was hook on these beautiful lace stamps.

I been collecting them from time to time. Maybe because I can't carve as detail as these.

The small match box stamps are one of my favorite stamps now. The stamps are carved in full detail and very small. I use the "Merci" (Thank you in French) rabbit stamp + lace stamp and stamp them in a small piece of "Thank you" card for my customer who have brought things from me. It makes a smile of my face and hope it brings my customers too :)

Hello London, Forrest Kawaii pouch

Gosh~ It seems to be a long time that I didn't sew. Was side track on other crafts which keep myself busy and doesn't have much time on sewing. Was busy on the housing hunting and purchasing process that keeps us rush here and there to find a best home that we like.

This was a fabric that I buy some time ago, one of my favorite. It is in bright blue color covered with red uniform queens guard marching and playing music for the upcoming festival. Each of them have it's own instruments. The fabric itself is so cute as if they are stories just by viewing the farbic.
I have added a Paris Tower charm on the zip....
Sew on the linen fabric label that I got several months ago. It match perfectly with the theme of this pouch.

I think this small pocket inside the pouch is so cute. You can store your small stuff, such as lipstick or lip blum.
Another zipper pouch that I have sew. The fabric consist of animals such as rabbit, horse, mouse, bears dress up for a carnival parade inside the forest. I have added a polka dot ribbon on the bottom left of the pouch. Giving out this pouch to someone you love and care as represent on the bear hugging your heart. I really made it with love on all my crafts and I can spend time just admiring them.

Well I need to
