sparks galore

seeing sparks!

... well, kind of.




reminds me of some retro wallpaper for kids' rooms. or just general wallpaper design.

on a more realistic note though (read: based on my resources), these i'll turn into some notecards and perhaps a couple other mini projects - most immediate being the header for this blog.

pattern play: Sorbet 1

this morning's design exercise

this is Sorbet 1

Sorbet 1 could look quite-at-home on wallpapers to grace one's lounge (or any other room) and/or on scrapbooking papers. What say you?

a blue affair


Made this last year for a joint buka puasa-cum-birthday dinner for a friend's (Ms M) husband and son. Yup, father and son share the same birthday - pretty cool, ey?

Anyway... Ms M then attached these cards to little chocolate-filled glass jars made famous by IKEA.


- special thanks to Ms M for her constant support and encouragement on my humble work :-) -

SCRAPBOOKING-RUBBER DUCKIES

A baby shower for my sister-in-law, at my parents' in February '07.
Theme was scrapbooking and rubber duckies, with blues, yellows, whites and browns as main colours
seen in decorations and favours.
Games: treasure hunt, baby-items list, measure mommy's tummy and the main activity was to make a scrapbook page each for the mom-to-be.
Favours: individual chocolate pots, mini fan, a rubber duckie and some mints.



... running theme for the shower - from the invites, favours and general colours ...

... individual 'sinful' chocolate pots (made by my sister - she's clearly the better one in the kitchen ;-)) ...


... favour bag with favours thrown in ...


...some of the prizes for games ...


... venue 'dressed up' for the day - clothesline included items given to mom-to-be earlier ...

SEEING DOTS!

I get such a thrill and burst of energy thinking up and planning a themed party.
The photos here were from my son's 3rd birthday party (Aug '06).
The theme was POLKA-DOTS in blues, greens, whites and browns.

... the invite ...


... the favour bags, each decorated differently with theme colour dots ...

... close-up on them favour bags, with TQ tags attached ...

... into the bags went a 'doodle book' each ...

... a do-it-yourself, dot-it-yourself art kit ...





... which came with 'instructions & a selection of circles cut from origami papers ...




... how a finished D.I.Y. D.I.Y. artwork may look like :-) ...





... the birthday cake (made by my sister) ...

... and everyone went home with a polka-dotted cupcake each ...

~ am now in the midst of planning and preparing for Z's 4th birthday party ... watch this space for updates on the party planning (theme and the whole works ;-)) ~
