Thank you card set?

I find that I'm always behind on my photo-taking part, especially after we got a new camera. So, finally (after 3 days), I took the picture of the card that I'm going to enter the clean & simple challenge.

This is the sketch:


And here's my take on it:


Hope you like it, cuz I start to like to paper pattern. :)

With the card I made for the other challenge, it's the first time for me to create a card set type of cards. :)

2 sketches 4 you challenge

I think orange might be my next most favorite color after making this card. It's inspired by the 2 sketches 4 you challenge.

Baby shower favors

I know sometimes things aren't working exactly the way you want. However, when making the baby shower favors, there are more things that didn't work the way I want than I expected. Let me share this adventure here:

The wraps that I got to wrap the cookies aren't big enough. With the limited time, I couldn't find wraps or boxes that I like. So I eventually made my own bag.
When I thought everything will go smoothly, with the bag I made, I wanted to use the ribbon to tie it. However, I do not have a punch with smaller hole (other than my big 3-hole punch), and my craft punches aren't powerful enough to poke through the bag. I had to end up just putting the ribbon in the front.


Anyway, it turns out to be pretty nice (at least from my point of view :-) )

365 cards challenge

I start to realize that I like the sketch challenge more. From a very tight Sunday evening, I made this card out of the sketch challenge from 365 cards



This is my card:


I had a hard time to get the glitter sticks. Luckily, it turned out to be not too bad, there's some randomness to it. But if you have any tips on getting the glitter sticks more permanently, please let me know!!
