Painted 3D Thanksgiving Card

Happy Thursday everyone! Today,  I have a 3D Card I would love to share with you. When I got my  Sheena Douglas Paint Fusion Christmas Stamp Set Collection, I was so thrilled to try them all. Lot's of ideas is floating in my mind. But since Thanksgiving is just around the corner, I decided to make a Painted 3D Thanksgiving card.


Please don't be intimidated with Painting stamp image. Paint Fusion Stamp set comes with a practice sheets. You can practice to paint on the practice sheets first before you paint your art. I have no painting background, but I am happy with the result of my Paint Fusion project. The Paint Fusion stamps really helps a beginner like me. 



This Clean and Simple Card is very easy to make. I stamp and painted  2 cardstock with the same image, then cut image outline of the other one, added some foam dots and attach on top of the card image. Voila! you got your self a painted 3D Card. 

I only used 3 color of my acrylic paint here. Dark green, light green and white. 

You can practically paint anything using these Paint Fusion Stamp set. I just love these new Christmas Stamps Collections of Sheena Douglas, it is perfect for making holiday gifts this season. 


Please don't forget my  12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS 2ND EDITION is now AVAILABLE!

Felt Kindle Case - Day 11


Are You Ready to Become the Talk of All Your Friends with the Most Unique Set of Gifts They have Ever Seen?



Hello Friends! Welcome to Day 11 of my 12 Days of  Christmas Handmade Crafts (2nd Edition). For Day 11, I would like to share a project for the men in our lives. Sometimes, they are the hardest people to find holiday gifts for. But you probably know that almost every man loves his gizmos. So, I thought of making a project that lets me dress up their toys a bit. Besides, when it is Handmade it is "Heartmade" so you can be sure every man in your life will appreciate receiving this handmade Kindle Case.  This versatile case can also double for IPads or Android devices.



This Felt Kindle Case is super easy and super fast to make, yet it looks very elegant and presentable.  Another great thing is this project requires minimal supplies.  I used Felt, Ribbon and eyelets- That's it!


So obviously, this is the 2nd to the last project before the release of the 12 Days of Christmas E-Book. Make sure to stay tuned because Day 12 project is coming up and that means the E-Book will be ready and available for you.

Santa Pants Treat Box with Drawers - Day 10

Are You Ready to Become the Talk of All Your Friends with the Most Unique Set of Gifts They have Ever Seen?


Hi Folks! I am back from my Women's Retreat this past weekend. I really had fun on that retreat, great food, great location and awesome new girlfriends I met. I am in a great mood today and I have a great project to share, which is included in the 12 Days of Christmas E-Book ( 2nd Edition). I may say this is my favorite. I really had fun making this Santa Pants Treat Box with Drawers so I am sure you will do the same.

Day 9 - Santa Pants Treat Box with Drawers

I know some of you can not wait for the release, and I promise it is coming soon.    I always put a lot of thought into which projects to include and that is taking a lot of time.  But guess what, 2 more projects and you can finally have the complete tutorial for all the 12 projects.



This Santa Pants Treat  Box with Drawers is really great for packaging your holiday treats this season. You have the option to just do the box and not bother with the drawers, but I always want to make ordinary projects extra ordinary so if you notice I always have "2 in 1 or 3 in 1" projects.

 Please stay tuned for the release. Be patient, my friends. 2 more to go!

Thanks a lot for stopping by. Please stay tuned for more Holiday projects to come.
