Pixie Dust Paperie March Kit - Easter Treat Party Cone

Pixie Dust Paperie March Kit Floribunda comes with 6 of these party cones



you can use it as Party Treat Box to filled up candies and other yummy goodies in there, I make my party cone into a Easter Treat 


fill it up with tiny little easter eggs, spring flowers (rolled flowers) and pearls found in the Pixie March Kit Floribunda, and of course, I have yummy chocolates in there too!


it is Easter Blessings after all.....


I used the Pixie Signature Crinkled Ribbon in this kit to make a tiny rose trim around the top of the party cone.....


Besides the beautiful DP (lots of them), this little memo pin in the kit is also one of my favorite, so fun to play with, you can do so many things with it, if you are following The Pixie Blog, you might already "discovered" a few ways to use them, our DT had shown lots of beautiful samples for this March Kit.


You might want to take a look at how the other Pixies dressed up this party cone, check it out!!!!

One for the boys

My brother likes vintage item just like me, I made this card with his birthday in mind


I am entering the challenge over at
Reasonable Ribbon Challenge #20 - One for the boys theme (must have ribbon on your project)


I using my Pixie Kits scraps to make this again, bits and pieces of left over, can you spot them?


Ok, I am going to leave the photos to the minimum, as my internet connection is not up and running like normal yet. I even reduced the photo size to as small as possible, hoping it will help with uploading speed, but nah, it only makes the picture look blurry, husband is not around, no one to fix that, all I get from the internet provider is "we are experiencing difficulties in that area", oh well, this is 3rd day, I wonder how long can I take this "uploading pain" and continue to blog on a daily basis?

***  ***  ***
Please help Japan!!!!!!

If you know me, not only I love Japan and all things Japanese, I even have plan to live there someday. I also have many Japanese friends whom I met in Singapore and New York, that already moved back to Japan, I am glad to find out that they are all fine but my heart still goes to those who is suffering right now. If you are reading this, Tomoko is organizing an event to help Japan, you can find out the details here, I am sending a package of my handmade cards to Tomoko for this fundraiser, hope you can join in the force to help Japan too!!!!

Project Christmas 2011 ~ card 12

Usually my blog post is at least 24 hours apart, but today is exceptional, I am running late and I have lots of posts waiting in line.........

Here's my card # 12 for Jingle Belles based on this sketch by Allison Fillo


here's my take......


everything I used to make this card is from my Pixie Kits


background paper - Pixie February Kit
and the rest of the trims (scallop paper and tinsel) at the bottom and the side, LOL..... they are actually scraps that I keep along the way while I make those projects for the Pixie Kits, you see here "left-overs" stuff from October Kit and November Kit


see that pixie? she is from Pixie February Kit "Springtime Pixie" too!


I never throw any paper away even it is only 1 inch square, 'cos you'll never know when you need that tiny bit to make a rolled-flower.

ok, I am going to stop right here, internet connection is dead slow tonight, it took me 40 minutes to upload these pictures, usually is like 3 seconds. I am going to bed now!
