Merry Christmas from Tropical Island

Hello readers ..

On the 25th of December, I was up on Magnolia YouTube Channel and I share about my projects using the goodies from the Advent Calendar pocket week 4


As you know, I live on the tropical country that have a lot of islands but we do not have snow or winter season. 
For me, Christmas is about LOVE and faith .. so, we need a pure heart to celebrate the Christmas instead the snowflakes :)
Anyhow, lots of people enjoy the Christmas holiday overseas and enjoy the winter .. sound exciting though! but some people also have the holiday on the island with the sunlight and picnic basket .. all are good!


These are the set that I made, Christmas gifts could be pack with many ways so I choose a tropical smell for mine :)
You can't go wrong with the gift card if you need a present on the last minutes .. LOL!!!
I show you my card with the gift card holder;


as a chocolate lover .. I always thinking about chocolate on every gift I made .. :) )



You can watch how I made this set on YouTube 



Thank you so much for reading
and ..

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!!!
All the best for the New Year!

Warm wishes from me to you ..

Holiday Dinner | Ombre stamping

Hi folks!

We are arriving at week #03 of this Advent calendar .. and I think just 7 nights more to Christmas!!
I have opened my Advent pockets this week and I wanna share you what I made with them;


I made a set of table dinner, there are presents that decorate with the goodies from pocket day 17 and some name place with some elements 



all the elements; strawberries, grapes, prawn, vegetables are from the solid stamps so I used ombre stamping & finishing with clear embossing powder, while the plate set and knife set are cutting using die cut also from the 3rd week pockets.


I had so much fun to create them all, and i shared the lapse process on day 18 Magnolia YuleTube on Magnolia YouTube Channel



Supplies : All Magnolia products coming from day 13 - 18 | Calli alpha are Mama Elephants

Thank you so much for reading and I wish your holiday as fabulous as you are!

Kitchen on holiday | Advent Calendar week 02

Hi folks!
Here I am again, and so happy to do a blog post again on this week 02 Magnolia Advent Calendar..
When I open all the pockets for week 02, there wss an idea on my mind .. it's about the kitchen on holiday, yeah .. it must be messy yet so fun!


Two cards that I made using stamps and dies from the pockets on this week and they are super cute, I believe I can use them either for holiday and other occasion.



I stamp the images on Canson illustration paper and coloring using several kind of watercolor mediums, while I cut some cold pressed watercolor paper using the dies and doing some water coloring too.
The boards are made from paper, painting with gesso and acrylic paint [I've got this brilliant idea from my best friend Vera, you can check her blog for another beautiful inspiration], and I made faux wooden strips too, you can watch all the steps here :

or YouTube


Thank you so much for reading and Have a great day!

Cookie Labels | Advent Calendar week 01

Hello dear readers ..

I am so excited when I got my Christmas Box from Magnolia stamp company and there are 25 pockets inside as an Advent Calendar !
so, today I wanna share what I create with the goodies inside the pocket number 01 until 06


Mix and match all the goodies that I got from the pockets to make some cookie 's label {actually those are jumbo cookies ..} and a simple petite greeting card will come along with the bundle of those cookies.


That is the closer look for the label I made.
