Getting Ready for Spring!!!

I spent lots of time working in my craft room over the weekends, I will be leaving for LA for a short trip, therefore I need to get all my work done, take care of my little blog before I leave.

Does anyone know a good flea market in southern california where I can shop?

It is the year of the rabbit, the Botanical Garden's display is all about the bunny!

Red + Pink = Valentine

I never like holiday cards in traditional colors, for example, I hardly make a Christmas card with green + red, or a Halloween card with Orange + Black, but somehow, Red + Pink just spelled VALENTINE to me, is that the traditional color for valentine's day card, I guess it is! LOL!

Here's the color palette I used

COLOUR Q Challenge # 70

And here's my Valentine's Day card

Hop over to Colour Q now if you want to play with this pretty palette!

Project 365 - Day 84 - 86

My husband and I love going to the strips even we are local and not tourist in Vegas, one of our favorite place is the Botanical Garden at The Bellagio, they have seasonal flower show in big scale, since it is Lunar New Year, they have the flower show in Oriental Theme right now, here's some shots from the Botanical Garden at The Bellagio.

I will show more photos of the beautiful garden soon!

Happy Lunar New Year!!!

I am sharing today a card I made for 

Waltzing Mouse Sketch Challenge # 32

Here's the sketch

Here's my card.......

This beautiful embellishment I used behind the handmade flower is from my Pixie Zielonooka, it is not paper thin, and it is not chipboard, I don't know what is that as I've never seen that before, it has some thickness to it and it is beautiful.

my all time favorite handmade flower....

the sentiment is a sticker from K & Company, and so is the DP, when I saw this new collection of K & Company few weeks ago at Michael's, I can't help but grab a lot of them.

hop over to Waltzing Mouse Sketch Challenge if you want to join in the fun

To all my friend who celebrate Lunar New Year

and to my family who lived thousands of miles away

Happy New Year!!!!!

Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!!
