PTI Create Along With Us (July)

I hardly have a second post in the same week these days, but I have to make a last minute birthday card so why not look for some inspiration from....


The card that inspired me is this one from Betsy Veldman, see original post HERE!


and here's my card.....


I like the peek-a-boo idea and also the cake stand...


all the the products I used on this card are from Papertrey Ink.

...................................

The guest bathroom remodel project took about 3 weeks, it was done and I finally got some photos to show....


we started this project because the bath tub has some crack lines, but one thing leads to another, we ended up adding a new sink and counter top, put in new tiles, paint the cabinet....


putting in new toilet and add beads board to the wall as well... 


new lights, new mirror, took away the medicine box and add new shelf.. haha... pretty much change the whole bathroom.

 

it cost us much much more than we wanted to spend but everyone loves the new bathroom, so I guess it is worth it when everyone is happy right?

Alright, here's another thing that makes me happy!


Have a great weekend!

City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 370 ~ Two Colors Only!

This week at City Crafter Challenge Blog, Marina wants us to use only two colors on our project.


I've chosen these two colors for my latest calling card (business card)


I like to keep a few of these name cards in my wallet, when I met someone that we need to exchange contacts, instead of pulling out the phone like most people do these days, I like to pass one of my card to that person.

Happy 4th of July and City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 369 ~ Black and White


Happy 4th of July to all my friends in United States!



Here at home, Clare and Jared came home from Valencia over the weekend, we had fun together, just four of us, and they left early this morning, back to LA, and in just three weeks, they will be moving to San Francisco while Clare starts her master program studying under her dream teacher, Van Cliburn International Piano Competition winner Jon Nakamatsu, she is very excited, and I am very excited that I will get to go to San Francisco more often now! : )


We went to try the Fish and Chips at Gordon Ramsay, that make me miss the "real thing" even more!


the real thing meaning those near Bond Street Station in London last summer, and it makes me feel a little sad because it was last summer, I met up with Ros in person. That was one happy day in my life!


At City Crafter Challenge Blog this week, it is the final week for Ros, she decided to step down from the team, I wouldn't blame her, it has been 7 years, but I know we will all miss her........

This is my card for the theme this week "Black and White", please check out challenge details here!


I am loving this..... how about you?




Please stop by the blog and leave Ros some love!
