Stamped Stuffs
Fridge magnet.
Made of shell and some buttons from last year's Christmas gift from my brother. The letters are made using this alphabet stamp set.
I used self-timer with slow shutter to capture the spinning process.
How are you guys doing? Having fun? We'll keep spinning until one LUCKY person fall off into the slit ya.
Today I bought a book from a second-hand shop. I don't know when will I have time for papier mache, but I just got to buy it. I love the illustrations.
Tak kisahlah lah. Hihi.

BIG BIG thanks to Haslina. She's the only person who answer the call and I love her translated version of the page. As promised, she will be getting a personalized stamp from me. Hehe, still owing another stamp for Miyyah, she helped me to translate this last time. Thanks so much for the time and effort guys! I really appreciate it!
Trying hard to do commision jobs whenever I can. These are a couple of stamps am working on but I couldn't finish them as I've run out of raw materials for the mounting.
Small fonts still make me nervous. Before I start carving these kind of stamps, I usually take time to get physically, and mentally prepared.
I am featured in Kerjaya Pilihan (Carier of Choice) column. Click on the photo to read it. To those who is unable to read the original version in Malay, please read the translated version done by Haslina.
Ok, let's play it. A set of 9 mini mini mini handcarved eraser stamps as the winning prize + personalized stamp. Jeng! Jeng! Jeng!
But here's the truth. The mini mini mini stamp set was an express carving, done playfully and the workmanship is abit rough. No sketching or tracing process involved as I draw directly on the eraser surface.

My Etsy shop is empty now coz all my product listing has expired. Don't feel like renewing my listing at the moment as I still got pending orders from my beloved local and LOYAL customers. Thanks so much guys!
In between works, I made a couple of new handcarved rubber stamps with an idea I wanted to try for so long. I love the vintage look and the additional fill-in stamps.
Paintings, drawings, sketches or doodles do have hidden thoughts behind them.
Like this one I made some time last year. I was thinking of my grandma while sketching it, because traditional Kadazan/Dusun costumes always remind me of her. She was a good tailor and she once told me that she never attend any sewing course. She learnt sewing all by herself as a way to make a living. She often sew for the traditional beauty pagent (Unduk Ngadau) and for weddings. I still remember spending my school holiday with her when I was 15, and helped her sewing all the sequins for a bride's cloth.
Now she only lie on the bed all day or sit on her wheelchair. She has lost her ability to speak and half-body paralysed. And what make me feel guilty is I can't visit her often.
