New Items Listed at my Etsy Store

After several thoughts I decided to list some of my projects on Etsy for sale, simply because I'm shifting back to my mum's place pretty soon and there's some space restriction. Plus I can't possibly bring everything over.

So instead of dumping them away, I think it'd be better to list them and sell them away to someone who will appreciate my works. Those who have been following me, you probably have seen some of them.

Some projects may not be practical but all of them are created with a lot of hardwork and I do spent great amount of time and effort in putting things together. Below are several projects I've made this year which I've listed for sales. Do pop by my shop and take a look.

Love Your Life, a Coffee Break Layout

This Saturday on Clear Scrap blog post, I've done up my very first Prima layout using the Coffee Break collection together with a couple of Finnabair's new mixed media range of products...

I've been cafe hopping since last year and my most hops was over 20 cafes within 2 weeks!!! So here featuring is one of the Lattes I had when I was visiting Kith Cafe last August... The clear gesso certainly works on acrylic especially when I do not want to cover the entire surface with white gesso yet creating a "teething" surface for me to work on... And this actually allows me to use normal water based sprays which is great!!! I created this coffee spillage mess on the background before I "sat" my "latte" on it... Finnabair's texture paste certainly gives this layout a more 3D look, though it took a much longer time to dry...

Here is a list of supplies used to create this layout...

• Prima Coffee Break Collection (Fill it to the Rim, Cup O' Joe, Aromatic Blend & Coffeeology)
• Prima Colour Bloom (tea stain & soft teal)
• Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks (latte, aqua & cloudy blue)
• Finnabair's Elementals Bubble Stencil
• Clear Scraps Flourish Embellishments
• Clear Scraps XL Deco
• Clear Gesso
• Texture Paste (white sand)
• Glass Glitter (copper)
• StazOn Midi (ganache)
• Bo Bunny Stained Texture Stamp

Enjoy!!! And happy crafting!!!

Suitcase Treasures Tutorial & Mini Travel Map Books

Finally, I've done up a PDF tutorial in how to create these little suitcases which is one of the featured suitcases in my Graphic 45 DT stacked suitcases project. Now available in my Etsy for purchase and download. The stacked suitcases would probably take some more time to get it all done up.

I've also made a set of mini travel map handbound books for sale as well which you can also purchase as part of your suitcase treasures if you desire to. Unfortunately, I only made 5 sets of these books, and once they are sold out, I won't be making them again.
