Handmade cards

I'm bedridden today ;-;. I injured my back lifting something really heavy. I was going to finish my card for Hubby's birthday. Looks like I won't be sending his box on time if my back doesn't heal by the end of tonight. In the mean time I'll post some of my handmade cards I made for the Mother's Day sale at school a few months ago.







The first picture were the cards I made for the sale. The Father's Day cards were my professor's idea, those didn't sale. But I was content with what I sold, I was worried none would sell at all!

The 21st birthday was for one of my friends. I've only been doing card making for less than 6 months or so. It's been quite the experience. I love acquiring different papers and learning different styles.

The other two cards were the first cards I made for the spring semester. A big differences from the Mother's Day cards right?

And the last with was featuring T.O.P from Big Bang (one of my favorite kpop groups). This one was for a friend who's just as obsessed with Big bang as I am. :) This was inspired from the song Cafe. :)

Edit: Up close view of the Mother's Day/Father's Day cards. And I found the cards I made for some of my friends who were graduating. I also am posting the card I made for my mom also. :)

Ceramics

Stuff I made in ceramics a while back.

Mancala board. Does anyone remember that game? I made one inspired by My neighbor Totoro and one with cherry blossoms.






I think I prefer the cherry blossom one. The rocks and everything went together really well surprisingly. The Totoro one, oh man the broad cracked when it was in the kiln. But I expected that. The board was too thin. It looks a little too plain for my taste too.

Mini Totoros were my first attempt at sculpey clay. I still have the bunches of Totoro. I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like after every art piece that I do it ends up collecting dust because I have no idea what to do with them x-x.

Giveaway comments

I feel really awkward x.x commenting everyday for the molds. ;-; I hope I'm not spamming either. ;-;. I'll just be very thankful if I win, but I'd still be happy if someone got the chance to win it. :) Haha ^___^. I usually don't have good luck with giveaways, lottery (I usually get a ticket for new years for good luck :o) or any spinning wheel things at volunteer events. D:


But yes. I hope Miss Julie and the other comment-ers will forgive me for the spamming ._.

"There is a time limit as to how long you can chase your dreams. But never one on how to lead them. " - Thuy Vo

I think swallowing pride is one of the biggest things I have yet to learn. Accepting the steps that I must take, seem so much more work and effort. I have moments in which I just want to throw up the white flag and say "to hell with it." I'm tired. Truly I am. I'm hating every moment I have to live through what I am right now. I don't want to regret anything, but I can't accept it either. And it's tearing me apart. I keep counseling myself, saying it will be alright. Just a year. I would be fine. But I can already see the fall outs, the usual bad things coming towards my way. It's ashame. Truly it is. The disappointment continues to claw at my heart. But I won't give up. I never had, and I never will. I completely refuse. I may have been knocked off my high horse. But that won't change. I will no longer chase after my dreams, destiny had done its placement. Now it's my turn to take my fate into my own hands and lead my future.

Final decisions

There are no limits to the endless sky
There is no say in how much you can reach
What only matters is how you go and approach it
How you see to it, and how far it takes you
Make every footstep count
Make every breathtake worth it
Let the deepths of the footprints last
Each step holds a new meaning
Nothing should ever hold you back
Keep reach into that endless field
Because only you can see for the future of tomorrow.

Stressing.

It's the end of the road.
I have yet to make my decisions.
Indecisions, indecisions. What am I to do?
Go with my heart, go with my mind. Or go for the sake of the future?
I'm walking two roads, this never ending line.
I'm stepping out of place.
I'm taking my sample of freedom.
First breath, and I'm not sure if I like it.
At least not yet.
I'm not sure how ready I am.
Or am I still afraid.
Afraid of the changes that will come, that already is and had.
I'm looking at blank pieces of paper.
Trying to put the correct puzzles back into place.
My heart is so heavy..
And I'm ending this in tears.
Where should I go, how do I start.
Am I running into this blind,
Or have I just started to see the light?
This mind is in chaos.
Just as the heart is in heeps of trouble.
One wrong move, and it can cost deadly.
But which one is the wrong and which is the right.
Give me a sign.
Write me a note.
Tell me please.
What is this little one, about to do?
