Greetings: February 2012 Wins

I am starting to get the hang of my 9 to 5 job.  But of course, had I a choice, I'd still prefer paper crafting 24 by 7 any day! LOL!

Despite of my decreased hobby time, I am just so happy and proud of my little wins this month.  I still made a couple of great cards that caught some attention.  Thank you to everybody who appreciates what I do. :)

My Baking Dottie card won Rosey's Non-Traditional Valentines Card @ the S4All group.

My Pink Tulips Easel Card won the prize at the Really Reasonable Ribbons' Red & Pink with Ribbon Theme Challenge.

My Hog Wild Over You shaped card won Cheryl's Holiday Card Challenge - Valentines at the Sketches4All group.

And another pink card of mine won another of Rosey's fun challenges at Sketches4All.

Here's to more cards made, and more challenges won! LOL!

Greetings: January 2012 Wins

After taking on a new job at the start of the year, I have been a bit out of the loop in scrapbooking and cardmaking challenges.  But still, I am happy that for the few cards that I manage to make, I still get some recognition here and there. :)

Here are the cards that did it for me for January 2012.

A win from the Crafty Catz Weekly Challenge  blog in their Use Something New challenge.

A spot in the Top 5 at Incy Wincy Designs' Bold and Bright challenge.

I was picked as one of the Spotlight Designers at the 365 Days Card challenge for Day 334 - So Good.

And a Top 3 spot for my Frame It card at the Quick Quotes Challenge blog.

Learned of the happy news from 2 of the challenge blogs I frequently submit my work to...

 Digi Winner @ Lia Stampz 

My tri-fold shutter card submission was chosen winner for Lia Stampz's Challenge #8 - Fancy Folds.

I have already won the digi prize on Lia Stampz a few challenges back, and this is my second win.

I have also been featured as a guest designer on their blog. :)




Honourable Mention @ Kaboodle Doodles Challenge

My Christmas Hanging Ornament did not win the prize or named Top 3 but it did an Honourable Mention for Kaboodle Doodles Challenges' Challenge #96 - Colors of Christmas. And for that, I am still happy!

I appreciate the kind word the DT says of my simple Christmas project...

"What a stunning Christmas hanging ornament - love it!"


Thank you so much to the talented ladies over at Lia Stampz and Kaboodle Doodles Challenges for making my Sunday! :)

A week to go before Christmas! :)

Greetings: CWC Weekly Challenge Winner for Challenge #62

My Christmas Tree Ornament project was chosen challenge winner at the Cooking With Cricut blog for their Challenge #62: Candles, Wreaths, Pine Cones! :)

After Hubby Cookie got me the Cricut Expression as a first wedding anniversary present in Septembers, I am still getting the hang of using it.  And this project is one of the first one's I have done that is not a result of a "trial and error" approach. Hahaha... :)

So, many thanks to the creative Cricut gals over at the CWC blog for this recognition. :)

It's me,

Greetings: Favourite @ Annabelle Stamps Blog

My festive Christmas tag project was picked favourite at the Annabelle Stamps Blog for their Annabelle  Bling Sketch Challenge 044.

It really made my day, and I just can't stop smiling.  I am personally really proud of this little project of mine as it is my first attempt at a "shaped" creation.  I just usually go for the traditional square or rectangular projects, and this one is a big leap for me.

So, thank you so much for the creative ladies over at Annabelle Stamps for noticing and recognising my work. I will wear your badge proudly on my humble blog!

Here is my Christmas Tag that won them over, by the way. :)

It's me,

Greetings: Winner @ The Pixie Cottage

 My Thank You ATC card was chosen winner at The Pixie Cottage Challenge blog for the Family Thankfulness challenge.

This is the second win for my card. :)

It really makes me happy when my work gets noticed and appreciated by fellow paper crafters.

Thank you so much to Michelle and the creative ladies over at The Pixie Cottage.  Do visit Michelle's Scrap shop, they have great treasures over there! :)


Here is my winning card.

I am really excited about joining the talented team at Sketchy Thursdays, even just for a month. I am sure I will have lots of fun creating with them and hopefully inspiring other crafties along the way. :)

Cheers!!!
