Blush

I guess card-making bug has bitten me again...

And it is all this Tuesday Trigger form Moxie Fab World's fault! (:

This is my second card for this Tuesday Trigger and if you missed my first card, here it is.
More pics of my card.

For this card, I crocheted the little frame using a blush pink yarn. It took me awhile to get the size right. But I really like the result (: Scroll down for the crochet pattern.

I used the same pattern paper that I used for my first card.
My sweet fiancé came up with the sentiment. I think it's really cute and match my card perfectly! :D
I used alphabet stamps from studio g and I mentioned about them in my previous post.

I really hope you like it! (:
I'm truly happy that I'm back into card-making and that I'm using crochet elements!
I try to keep things clean and simple thou; it's my favourite style.
Let me know what you think about it too (:

Here is the easy pattern for the frame I used on my card:

ch = chains, dc = double crochet, ss = slip stitch

Round 1: Make ch ring that is big enough to hold your picture. I made 50 ch, and ss to the first ch.
Round 2: 3 ch (count as 1 dc), follow by dc into the ring.
              Number of dc = multiple of 4. I did 14 x 4 = 56 dc
Round 3: ch 6, skip 3 stitches, ss into the 4th stitch. Repeat around the round to make the 6-ch loops.
              For last loop, 6 ch and ss into the first ch of the first loop.

Handmade Card with Crochet Roses

It's been probably about a year since I last made a card.

But since I've "liked" so many cardmaking pages on my Facebook, I keep seeing pretty cards and I've been itching to make one.

I was resisting the urge, of course, since I'm right in the middle of my final exams.
But this Tuesday Trigger from Moxie Fab World did it for me.

Isn't it the most gorgeous thing or what?! 

Oh, yes, they have patterns for those beautiful frames alright. Click HERE for it. (:

And yes, I think I'll be making those beautiful frames once my finals are over (((: 

They're so beautiful...

Anyway, to my card, I always wanted to use crochet appliqués on card. 

And this challenge is just asking for it!

It's a perfect marriage of my two hobbies. (:

I crocheted many roses using embroidery threads and I didn't use them all up.

So I decided to use a few on this card, but I realized how small the size of the handmade card is and I couldn't squeeze 3 roses in like I intended to.

It is just a simple card; I figured I'd just start simple since it's been so long since I did paper crafting.

I've crocheted a few leaves, but I ran out of green ones so I used the yellow ones on this card.

The sweet pattern paper is from Echo Park, bought it long time ago but still my favourite because of those 2 sweet flamingoes. 

Here are more photos of my card. 

Hope you like it (:

Crochet Bag and Crochet Card

One of my close friend in Uni had her birthday last Friday.
So I had the pleasure of gifting my crochet stuffs to her! (:
I made this bag from Daisy Granny Squares, and you can find the pattern HERE.

I also went through my handmade cards for her and I found this card that I made probably a year ago.
I love those little crochet flowers! It is one of my favourite card that I made. I really hope she likes it too. (:

Sorry about the photos being blurry on the right side, I don't know what happened....I took them in a rush right before leaving for school in dim light..may be that was the problem (:

Today is the start of something special for me. Mitch is arriving here in Singapore from Australia tonight (he's on the way right nowwww!). I'm so excited, of course! (:

Hope you're having a nice day and thanks so much for dropping by! (:
