Tree With A Twist




I am trying really hard to stay away from dark green and deep red for my next batch of christmas cards, and this was what i came up with last night. couldnt stay away from those snow flakes though. but this time, i didnt use the ones i used on my previous cards. look closely. this is a different type. these are confetties.







I love, adore and think highly of ribbons. i collect them. and quite frankly, one can never have enough of ribbons. i have way too many and now trying to make space for more. the best ones to work with (for me at least) are plain ones. i used a textured dark brown ribbon for the tree trunk. and a plain white to wrap the tree with.








Well... if it doesnt snow here for christmas, at least i can throw some confetties!

k.zue: i miss ssf. really do. and the discounts that i can get! haha. some things are way way cheaper and you cant get them here. they carry some good stuff and always have good ideas! look closely!

rose: hi rose, thanks for dropping by. glad they're useful to you. and thank you for the compliment,flattering, really. how's your girl today? still likes to pose for the camera?! ;)

ummi: hey ummi, glad you've found me back, perhaps you can share some ideas with me, and i doubt you dont have that uumph anymore. sure ada in there somewhere! ;)

mush: rassem? i've never heard of it. this is really interesting, and indian soup. susah tak? you know mush, as much b's lucky to have you help him in the kitchen, you're lucky to have b as well! you guys are well paired lah! you guys make a really good team. just like my parents. dad cooks, mum helps out with everythin else in the kitchen. but when mum bakes, dad, move away...
