Rohan, the bigger boy is off his ventilator and breathing on his own. He seems pretty calm and usually has a hand down his diaper or grabbing his crotch like Micheal Jackson. While Krish (the smaller one) is very feisty and likes to punch his nurse when she changes his diaper. He is on a ventilator to help him breath. (Updated: James just emailed to say that Krish is now off his ventilator too! Hoo ray!) My own elder brother (who is now 29 y/o) was a preemies too. He was delivered at week 28, weighed 4lb 2oz. Mum told us how difficult it was to take care of a premmies. So I totally feel the situation J&G are facing right now.
Me and Ethan thought of sending our warm wishes from Singapore to US with this bright and colorful card, hoping this would make their day.
This card is made with only card stocks, no pattern papers. Will use this card to join Paper Smooches Card Challenge.
This card has a papa flower (with blue heart) and a mama flower (red lips + pink heart) which symbolize James & Gunjan. The three bees symbolized their elder daughter and Rohan & Krish the premmies. I want this colorful background to looks like a sunny day. Off to send our warm thoughts to James, Gunjan & the little ones. Get well soon.
I spent almost 30 minutes just on the ray of light background and then I found the tutorial of making this ray background from Simon Says Stamps. >_< And you can download the template here too!
Then I proceeded to make another 'belated' birthday card for my bestie, L.
I am such a bad friend that have totally forgotten her birthday. >_< I made this card in order to make it up for her. I hope she <3 it. Love love love this pic taken in KLCC a few weeks ago when we had a quick catch up back in Kuala Lumpur. And all thanks to the awesome photographer, Cheryl =) You rocks, babe! ❤
Using only Paper Smooches stamps & card stock only. I love how the Birdies carrying tulips in their beaks. This card is inspired by Tkle Crafts' With Gratitude card.
I am gonna use this card to join Simon Says Stamps 3rd Birthday Challenge. Wish me luck. I am drooling all over for their yummy prizes!
I am gonna share a tag made by Ethan. (p.s: Ethan is my husband, not son! ;)
Us looking silly with funny frames in Taiwan ❤
I have no idea how he learnt how to use my paper trimmer, twines, inks and stamps. He spent quite some time doing it while I was taking my evening nap. I asked why did he draw a koala (a doggie) with big heart and me being so much shorter on the tag. =) I went Awwww...... when I saw this tag and knowing how he trying to use all my scrapping tools to came out with this card. Isn't he super duper sweet? ❤ Oh ya, he even used my SMASH date stamp at the back with some archival inks.
Okie dokie. I am super happy that I got to spent plenty of time to craft (and blog) during the National Scrapbook Weekend. I really need to catch up on Smashing my daily life. And I totally adore the idea of Ethan joined along by making a cute tag for me. Off to study now after I have been procrastinating a week.... my last re-sit paper on this Thursday. Wish me luck! XoXoXo
