It's easy, you can do it !

A lot of you might have this though when you see some of my works.
" It's looks really easy, I can make that "
Go ahead, because I don't feel offense by that at all.

Because my real goals for this blog is to inspired others .
and base on my own experience when I see  projects out there some of them are so pretty and inspired but some of those pretty project are waaaaay too complicated.

For a newbie like me that could go either way by making me want to try to make them or 
discourage me from making them.

Intimidated are somewhat hard to deal with for me when it comes to scrapbooking.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -

So here take a look at some projects that you can try to do.

" Hi "

I have a lot of scrap paper left from my Studio Calico this month and it would hurt my hubby feeling so much if I threw them away without making anything since he's nice enough to promise me that I can buy SC kit every month lol

My new favorite embellishment is feature so you might see them on my projects more often.




" I always love you "

I don't have much of LillyBeeDesign but I always attracted by their fun color so when i saw this in the store I decided to get head over heals collection to use them for Valentine's card.

I punch heart shape from pattern paper, layered them and stitch along center.



" Stuck on you"

Another project using head over heels collection. I found this lovely stick flower from Basicgrey it is so perfect for this card with blue and pink color scheme.



" Make Waves " 

I made this as Valentines card for Todd left it on our bed but I forget to write on the card !! then I give him a silly reason that " my love for you can't describe in words " lol



" Nice having you around "

Found this lovely felt flower by Pebbles Inc at Michaels for $1.49 as you knew I'm a sucker for Pebbles and of course sale items ^_^



A lot of stitching on my project today almost break my sewing machine.
