World Hijab Day (WHD)

Greetings from Malaysia,

Am back from my hiatus..Been very busy juggling a lot of things here..This is something that I wanted to do for so long, but never had a chance to make it until recently..I intended to do something else for the map on the face, but since I had started almost half way, I just finished it up..Still satisfied with the end product.. 

"The brainchild of this movement is a New York resident, Nazma Khan, who came up with the idea as a means to foster religious tolerance and understanding by inviting women (non-Hijabi Muslims/non-Muslims) to experience the hijab for one day. For many people, the hijab is a symbol of oppression and segregation. By opening up new pathways to understanding, Nazma hopes counteract some of the controversies surrounding why Muslim women choose to wear the hijab."

These were so last year (^__^)

Hello everyone,

Been very busy with a lot of things that I didn't have the chance to update my blog..I made these December last year..I know, kinda outdated..But hey, better never than never (^__^)

The welcoming board..

..and a guestbook as requested..

Another typography in a frame

Another typography in a modified frame..I use a cardboard to create the same effect as the IKEA frame..

If you notice, I used the letter 'N' for my tutorial on how to create the swirls spanning the letter 'M' in my previous post..The upside down heart is actually pink, with black spiral..Dunno how it looks all black here..

The side view of it..

It looks like it pops out, right?

Another quilling typography in frame

Was so furious with the fact that the owner received this after her wedding..This was supposed to be the centerpiece for the table where her guests would write down their wishes..



Sorry for the blurry picture..It's official..My cameras were stolen..
Had to use my phone to capture this picture..

Am preparing for my viva, which is scheduled on 18/1..Wish me luck..

Another quilling typography in frame

I forgot where I put all of my three cameras..Can you imagine? Therefore, I snapped some pictures using my mobile phone..Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures and also the overall pictures (Thought I had the whole frame, but I didn't..Thanks to the panic attack..Sigh) 

My apology as the picture is a bit tilted..

As requested by a sister to be given to her baby sister..

Happy birthday

Not a typical birthday card..

From a young man..

..to his dulcinea

With her name inside..

Submitted this to:

Itsy Bitsy - KISS Challenge

Lots of love

You're..

..number one..

..in..

..my..

..heart..

A wedding gift..

With the white and blue theme..

For a couple who has the same favourite colours..Bet you know which colours are their favourite (^__^)

MacBook Pro anyone?

An apple a day keeps the doctor away (^__~)

When you open it..Tadaaa..

Closer view..

Some icons to cheer up the mood..

Love story

This tri-shutter was made for one of my FB acquaintances..At first, she wanted me to replicate someone's creation..After explaining that it was unethical to do so, she finally got it..I believe that it's important for us to educate everyone, especially the consumers that it's wrong to plagiarise (copy) other people's work without asking their consent..Even if when we're inspired by someone, it's crucial for us to acknowledge them to respect their work..

Well, enough said..Let me share what she wanted to have for her 1st anniversary card..The young lady requested to have a tri-shutter card with polka dots on it with pictures of her and her boyfriend..She also wanted to have the boy's name quilled on the card, but I made the initial to both of their names to suit their pictures..Despite the date, I was told to include a ribbon, so I incorporated everything that she pictured and blended them together with what I had in mind and voilà - the 1st official tri-shutter card that I've ever made..

After it's opened..

More frame

I made this for my niece..Her mom wanted to have butterfly and heart like the one that I made before..It's just that she would like to have it framed with pink and black theme..So, here it is..

To ensure that it's different from my previous creation, I made some changes to the butterfly and the heart so they won't look the same..

At first, there were only the butterfly and the heart..However, the frame looked somewhat empty, so I decided to include the typography..My niece's name is Anis Batrisya and that explains the 'A' and 'B' as they are the initials of her name..

The difficult part was to think of how to come out with this design so that I don't repeat the heart design that I created prior to this..

I'm definite that we don't have any butterfly like this, but I somehow think it's unique to have one like this (^__^) I believe that this post somehow has some rhymes in it..Haha..
