Surprise Card

Since I came back from KL and with my backache I had stop making cards for a while. The last card I made was about two weeks ago. Yesterday I took the medication that the doctor gave me...to be specific they are painkiller. It will not cure my backache but at least it made them go away. I felt so much better and when I got back from work, my head was bursting with ideas and my hand is itching to create. I came up with an 'evil' plan :) Hubby usually play badminton with his buddies on every Monday. As soon as he exit the front door, I immediately dashed into my craft room. It's evil isn't it?? shhhs....don't tell him...lol. I was watching Golden Globe on E channel so I moved my stuff and start working from the couch. How comfortable! At least I can lie down for a while when I feel tired or when I feel the stiffness on my shoulder and back. Oh btw, did you watch the Golden Globe yesterday? I'm glad that Meryl Streep won....love her acting!

This is what I created while watching the tv. I am glad I could multi task :) Before I start, I know that I must use the stamp set by Basic Grey that I had for a while. I love the teapot and cup stamp! Then I think of the color combo that I want to use on the card. I don't normally go for pink, green and kraft but I don't know why I dig the color combo yesterday. The patterned paper is in one of my Scarlet Lime kit by American Crafts. The ribbon is from my friend, Evelin. Thanks sweetie. The polka dots is from my PTI set. I don't know why but I think this is my fav card among all the cards I made. It made me smile :)

Not to forget that the layout of this card is based on the sketch over at Card Patterns. I had stop playing with their sketch for some time and when I visited their blog yesterday, I was greatly inspired by the sketch and the DT's creations. My friend Yvonne is part of the design team as well! I still remember the day when my card was choosen as fab 5 and later I won the guest design spot. I was overwhelmed by the opporunity that the ladies of Card Patterns gave me. I shall never forget that :)

I am a bit chatty today and thanks for stopping by here :) May you have a great day
