{ Freebie } Hello March!!!

 

Hello guys, it's March already and I felt like Christmas was just like yesterday! Made this desktop calendar for a kick start and I made the date right in the middle of screen to be easily seen. So when you move your mouse and check the files, you can still see the dates without icons blocking your sight.  Just press the image to save the original size:)  

Tomorrow morning I am going to a cycling tour and apparently the weather is not too happy at the moment(yes!!), hopefully I can survive on the road. Fingers crossed.

{ Freebie } I bloody love Fridays Print!


TGIF!! TGIF!! TGIF!! I just love Fridays so much, it is not like I have a miserable week but I get to have an excuse to do nothing, and of course, I can spend more time with Andrew. Friday always make me feel like something worthwhile is about to begin somewhere, so no matter how tired or irritated I am, I always got this mantra: It's Friday, it's Friday, it Friday...Nothing can beat me today. No one can ruin my Friday. Creepy, I know. hahah.

Anyways,  Maybe some of you do exactly same just like my silly mantra, I still want to share you some thing made from my heart. (or my mantra) I made this print for you who wants to look at something cheering rather than staring at the clock every 5 minutes. Remember, nothing can beat you today and no one can ruin your Friday. TGIF!!!

Hope you have a great Friday and even better weekend!! Oh, also, happy Mardi Gras, Sydney!!!

{ Colour Palette } Orangy Frenzy

Images from Pinterest // Graphic design by me
Hello guys, Had a good day so far? Some of you might have noticed that I have a thing in orange colour and the truth is I always have soft spots in bold colours. My mom always teased me that I always dress like Christmas tree and I really don't care. Seriously I have no idea why I dressed like depressed old lady when I was 14 and I guess I didn't like too much attention back then. I was always afraid of people's opinions so I always follow other kids' fashion. Until high school, I decided to stand for myself a bit more and than a little bit more and I never go back. Bold colours are not just statements, they are elements of happiness, well, at least it is to me. The history of my colour crush from hot red, neon pink, turquoise...and so on, now it's this happy orange.


Also, nother fan of this colour is Frank Sinatra and I can't agree more! What do you think? Do you like orange just like me or you think it's confronting? 

Anyways, if this colour is not your happy colour, there is something else can make you happy. It's Friday tomorrow!!! heheh!

Wish you have a nice night tonight and great tomorrow ahead:)

{ Chit Chat } Tuesday Movie Night










Hi guys, how's your day been? Today I had a really busy but not so productive day due to my poor coding knowledge and a quick way to forget all about it is go to a cinema. Cinemas in Sydney normally offer pretty mad deal on Tuesdays and this great offer definitely help us pass many helpless Tuesdays. I wonder you guys normally go for the Tuesday deal or it's more a romantic event to you? Anyway, today we watched Dallas Buyers Club and it was inspiring with bit more than just bittersweet. It make you laugh and make you think, tick the boxes so go watch it. It's money well spent and I only paid 20bucks for two. What a bargain!! However, I am not sure how many of you have watched it and I despite spoilers so there's no review here. You have to watch it to find out. (wink! ) This is just a quick chit chat.

Lastly, the reason I am still up is I am trying not to overthink the designing process so I kinda force myself to make a piece of something, so here I am, very sleepy but still trying to make something. That's the image above, please be kind.

Hope you all still survive the weekdays with some joys!!

Speak soon,

p.s. I saw the trailer of  the director Wes Anderson's new work" the Grand Budapest Hotel " (click the name to see the intros )and I am far too excited!! I am such a fan of his movies, always fulfilled with rich retro colours, witty conversations and tons of surprises. I can't wait to see it finally shows in the cinema! LOve the poster too!!! (See below)
p.s.2 I made the buttons. Hooray!

{ Freebie } Blue Monday print




Hey guys, how's your weekend? Andrew and I went boat diving and it was absolutely amazing. We didn't make it to Magic Point due to the horrible current but we were lucky enough to spot one shark-wobbegong, and this one is huge as well. It was not just diving trip but also a cruise around Sydney Harbour, it's certainly another unforgettable memory. It was just mind blowing.

Enough talking about my weekend, have you all have a little bit more colours than the blue mood this Monday? I have an intensive gym session for a kick start and I am loving it! I have done so many things more than I expected, and I think I should do this more often!! No matter you have a great Monday or suck Monday, I am sharing you a print that I did today which I hope would be cheering. You can simply press the image to download the original size. It's not very small because I want to keep it as flexible it can be so that you can use it as decor, wrapping paper, desktop picture and so on. Tell me what do you do about it if you like it!


Wish you all have a nice week
