CAk!

Hehe.. The First prize Winner's Caricature :).. from my 1st Blog Giveaway- Lucky Draw.

You all keep smiling... Alrite? You never know when you could get Lucky!

The WINNERS... are LUCKY!

Oh.. what a nice Monday morning. Not too hot, not too cold out there. We had a little rain early on... so I guess, for those who had to wake up super early and go to work.. phew!.. it must be super hard to drag yourself out of bed, huh?. Me too... until I remember what an important day today is. I'm going to ANNOUNCE my 1st LUCKY WINNERS for the 1st GIVE-Art-WAY LUCKY DRAW!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to....

The 1st PRIZE goes to lucky mia aka LoLLiMia from bibie-says.blogspot.com.
The 2nd PRIZE > muffins Jue from muffinsjue.blogspot.com
and Last but not least, 3rd PRIZE > mama_umar_maryam from superzetymarlia.blogspot.com

Owh, have I shown you the MYSTERY GIFT? Not yet, kan..? Here it is.. TA DAAA..!..

It's a Non Woven Eco Bag and I painted a little something on it for the special winner. I hope she'll like it :).

The paints that I used for the bag came from Pelikan Textilmalen Fabric Paint. It's really nice, smooth & quite brilliant on any fabrics. Bought them earlier this year when they had a Jualan Gudang at their HQ in Puchong. But if I'm not mistaken, they're discontinuing this product due to poor demand in Malaysia. Hmm.. sayang plak nak habiskan kaler ni kalu gitu... hihi.

Anyway, I hope the lucky winner will enjoy the1st prize gifts from Doodledesign :). Here's a ' winning batch' for you! You may copy & paste it in your blog, OK dear?

For the 2nd Prize winner who'll get a FREE A5 Sized Black & White Caricature (1 figure/person) + 1 Art Post Card... and 3rd Prize who'll enjoy a Black & White Caricature (1 figure/person) drawn by me but send in digital form...., please find a good, clear, picture of yourself OR your loved one and email me. I'll start sketching once received and send them to you when I'm done.

For those who are not that lucky this time, stick around to see more contests, offers, lucky draws or more doodling from Doodledesign. InsyaAllah.. But in the meantime, I've created a little batch for you guys to take home..or..to your blog, that is. Well, it's OK if you don't feel like a FAN of Doodledesign... it's more like a FRIENDSHIP BATCH  from me :).

Enjoy!

Know what? You guys have been patient.. (me too :).. so, I'd like you to take a "sneak peek" at the MYSTERY GIFT for the Most Lucky Person in this 1st GIVE-Art-WAY!

Hehe.. Told you it's just a "sneak peek"... a *hint *hint.... So, take a guess for now and Good Luck with that!

Psst..psst.. Tomorrow is 15th October and it's my younger sister's (Adda who has her own blog of vintage clothing for sale) time in the limelight! It'll be her BIRTHDAY!! I made her a handmade birthday Card. I hope she won't be reading this post before tomorrow (hihi). But I'd like to share with you guys ... :). Just don't tell her just yet.

I was so happy with my first handiwork of the GIVE-Art-WAY Bookmark that I decided to create another Little Dress with more accessories on it. Besides, I have quite a bit more of the fancy-swirling-pattern wrapping paper 'left-over' to work with. Hihihii. And those accessories came from.. err.. one of the wedding giveaways (bunga telur) I had been to.. somewhere. Well, my sisters know me well enough that I'm a bit of a 'hoarder'.. and I like to 'recycle' or 'reuse' stuffs. I say I'm just being 'practical' :). Heh.

Here's the Gifts for Adda  (the big one- I shared with another sister to buy.. :)

You know what else is nice about this Card? You could take the hanged Dress out and turn it into a Bookmark!

Told 'ya I'm a practical person, right? Huhuuuu..

So... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, my dear dear sister who is not getting any younger.. kuikuikuii.
May God Bless you in everything that you do and if you get married next year, make sure you ask me to be your designer :). LOve you. Not much I can give.. No wise advice I can offer. As long as we live, insyaAllah I'll always be there.. forever.

COME&JOIN my 1st 'GIVE-Art-WAY' Lucky Draw!!

Actually I plan to announce this on the 8th October- but I'm so excited, I can't wait any longer! :) Yeeeaahaaa!

Dear friends, I'm so happy if you wanna join my 1st Give Away or as I call it, "GIVE-Art-WAY"- get it?!

The purpose of this 'special event' is to be able to share some Artful Stuff with you- especially stuff created by yours truly :). The thing is, as you get older.. and wiser (I supposed).. you tend to think about how much time you have left (well, at least, I'm speaking for myself here), and this thought often leads to how you would like to be remembered when you're gone.. or what purpose your being here on earth- even in the smallest circle of your families, friends or maybe, pets... or what else can you do to achieve your dreams & happiness or make your loved ones happy..? Have you done enough? See, we all know we are going to die some day.. so I think,  it'll be quite selfish to keep everything to oneself. The more you share, the more you prosper, some people say... and what goes around, comes around.. but most importantly,.. .Sharing is Caring.. huhuuu.

Just so you know.. craft is not really my thing (somehow, jadik 'kerastangan' when it comes to sewing and crafting) but still, I'm always very curious to learn & create some crafty stuff once in a while. Experimentation and exploration are the key to success. haha. So, please pardon my crafting misadventures in this blog.. if I ever get my hands on it, I mean. I say this because one of my 1st Handmade Craft- a cute looking dress on a wire hanger (something I just learned to do), will be one of my little give-aways. But hey, it's the effort that counts, right? hehee.

Now, the LUCKY WINNERS will receive...

Please note that the 1st Prize will also get one 'Mystery' gift..whooa!! Can't tell you just yet.. must wait until the dateline. Ok?

(humming the birthday tune already).. tra la la la laaaa..

October's Special Gift!!

And the special gift is.. ME!! hehe... well, to my parents, at least (many first borns are special until they make some trouble while growing up- heh).

Wow.. I haven't blog for a while.
Well, I don't have a good excuse for that :- /

But anyway, OCTOBER is here! It's a special month since.. I'm gonna have my __th birthday this coming 8th! And this is the 2nd year I'm celebrating my birthday while blogging. My blog is still pretty new, I guess. I need to keep pace with this virtual world. I feel like I'm falling behind :(

But right now, I have a couple of NEWS to you, my virtual friends..

Firstly, my Art Endeavor- as one would say... has been featured in one of the local Newspaper last 2 weeks!

Phew... I'm very2 shy about it..huhuu.. but it's already 'out' for many to see. When I first started blogging, I thought I just want to be an anonymous face behind a blog.. so.. yeah.., you could say that I'm quite a private person. Anyway, as I thought long and hard about it, I realized that the article may inspire some people to pursue Art as their field of choice...or continue the passion and make a living out of it too :))

Secondly, wait for my next post as I'll be announcing DOODLEDESIGN FIRST ever...........................

"GIVE-Art-WAY" LuCkY DrAw!!!  

woohooo!

But..but.. I wonder if there'll be any respond from anyone.. but I'm so happy because it's my birthday month- so, no matter what happens, I'd like to share some free ARTsy stuff with any lucky person who may join :)).

In the meanwhile, check out this very inspirational blog that I love... her blog makes me wish I have a daughter :)... huuuhuu...

Well, she said she was "out to lunch"- a very long one... but gladly, she's popping in once in a while. A very creative person she is.. and Disney is her name. What I like best about her is that she makes do with what she has. All one needs is a little imagination.


Enjoy..
and Owh!.. don't forget to check out my next post, ok?
