The Big Move.....

Hmmmm.........where do I begin...... Let's just start by saying that I am MOVING AWAY.....moving to another place, a totally different environment...... :( I'm just overwhelmed with emotions right now....feels sad to leave this place.....but I don't have much of a choice. Been thinking of moving since last year, but the plan was postponed due to the orders I've been getting at that time..... Where to you might be wondering? I will update about the location when the time comes......but for now I'm just concentrating on the move......doing a lot of packing, little by little and some important matters to settle as well before I go.

Not many of you know about my situation right now......to be honest, I really am not well.....I don't really like to mention here what's wrong with me.....only my family and close buddies know what's going on. And I like to keep it that way......for now. It's just sad talking about it..... :( This is one of the reasons why I am moving away..... I can't afford to stay here alone....I can't afford to work at a normal pace.....I can only do if I have the energy to do so. I just have to figure out another way of finding income that would not jeopardize my health. Something that will work for me and my customers.....a win- win situation so to speak......

I told my Mom......it's weird how it all turns out......I never wanted to move in the first place, even though she told me so and now whether I like it or not, I have to......it's like a domino effect.....everything just came falling down.....first I got really sick....then the computer broke down, which completely stopped me from doing any work......from there things just kept going wrong....as if it was meant to be....It was time to leave.... It is a hard fact for me to accept, but maybe there will be a much better life for me some place else...... I really hope so....

All I want to do now is concentrate on getting better.....focus on the move as well......and if ever I get the chance to create, I will........ till then.....I guess this blog will be very very quiet and empty for the next couple of months.....I hope it won't take that long to update......will try my best to do what I can..... bye bye for now guys.......hope to blog here again soon.....wish me luck!

Happy Birthday Mak Ngah

Oh my gosh......it has been quite a long time since I last posted anything here..... :( . I made this card design last month for my dear aunt but was not able to post it in this blog because of the PC problem....even though the PC has been "fixed" but most of the time it acts up and honestly I'm getting pretty frustrated with it. I can't afford to buy a new one yet so I have to be patient with this one. Because of this problem I have not been taking any orders online......so I have to find income in other ways.....boohooohoooooo :(

OK, let's talk about the design......I wanted so badly to do this design for a long time now.....got the idea of doing a pop up vase with flowers from the Extreme Cards and Paper Crafting blog.....gosh, there are just so many interesting tutorials there to try......I learned about how to assemble my 7 flower pop up there as well. :) Since I've been so into making designs that looks like quilt or shall I say looks like embroidery designs.....so I did it again here....with a combination of pink and brown....so sweet, sweet like my dear aunt hehehe......

The pop up vase and flowers were so hard to do......I guess the hard part would be to arrange the flowers in the vase and make it look organized and pretty at the same time.....and the important thing is that it has to pop up nicely! ha! It really really tested my patients hahahaha..... ;) I guess it will be a while till I will do this design again because I think I would have to be in a really good mood to do it......otherwise I would tear it all up!! LOL!

I'm just happy that my aunt loved it so much.....that made everything worth while ;)
