Hello

Hello sweet peeps,

Here is the second card I made since I moved into our apartment. I will show you the first one later. It has no printing on it - all store bought embellies yet it looks nice, doesn't it? It could be ideal for a man - less is more for them. Lol.

I will enter this card for the challenge at LIM which is mostly words - well, it kind of qualifies or so I think>



I wish you a great Tuesday and thank you for not giving up on me,

Monica

Hello from me!

Hello sweet bloggers,

Gosh, life has been so hectic of late. We had my hubby's nephew and girlfriend visit us from the UK and then we took off to Jakarta for two days to see our friends. It was lovely to go back and meet everyone, even though it was a wee bit early to do that. Nonetheless it was worth every minute!!!

Here is a card that I made while we were househunting. I have used recycled black card to die cut the birds and have layered them with a shiny paper at the bottom for added dimension. The sentiment is handmade. 


Wish you a happy day,

Monica

Art work by Aleeza and a very dear friend

Hello sweet bloggers,

Gosh, I have been missing so much haven't I? Just settling in and getting used to life here and having house guests seems to be taking all of me. It is barely a month since we moved here but it seems longer for some reason.

Here is something to share and it is not a card... It is Aleeza's art work created in her art class. I loved it and am sure you will do. It reminds me of juicy watermelons. Lol. What does it remind you of?




Here is Aleeza (on the right) with her new friend Tatiana in her PE uniform. Yes, we are adapting to a "uniform" culture here. Lol.

More friends of Aleeza


This painting was made by a dear friend many years ago, maybe seven years ago. Isn't it so very vibrant?



I promise to come and visit soon. Pardon my tardiness.

Lots of love,
Monica

Hello there!!!

Hello sweet bloggers,

Yes, I found some "me" time to blog and here I am with a simple but pretty card. I bought this embossing folder with much excitment two years ago and this is the very first time that I have used it. 


I will enter this card in the following challenges:

Wish you a happy and healthy Wednesday,

Monica
