: Doodle with Ohuhu Colored Fineliners

These pens have become one of my go-to supplies for doodling because of their dual tips. It has a brush tip that’s great for lettering and coloring and a fine tip that lets me add tiny details.

I use them for doodling little ideas, adding notes, and decorating my journals and notebook pages. I especially love how vibrant the colors are which makes them perfect for adding playful and whimsical details to my pages.

What do you like to doodle when you have a colorful pen in hand? ✨

: Stargazing Beneath Our Dreams

I recently had this conversation asking me if I was happy with the job I have now, even though it wasn’t the dream I had when I was younger.

I told her that I’ve come to appreciate my job because it provides for our family. But sometimes, I still ask myself if this feeds my soul?

When we were younger, we had so many dreams. Then life happened. We grew up, took on responsibilities and learned that sometimes, getting through each day is already an achievement.

But I also believe that surviving isn’t the only thing we should do. Somewhere along the way, we need to find the little things that feed our souls, whether it’s creating, exploring, learning, dreaming, or simply making time for the things that make us feel like ourselves.

So don’t stop dreaming. Keep wandering. Keep looking up. And keep your eyes open for the beautiful opportunities that may cross your path. Sometimes, the dream doesn’t disappear. It simply takes a different path to find you. ✨🌙

: My Heart Is Full 💜

No video today, just a quiet, cozy evening with myself.
I spent some time journaling and watching Netflix (something I haven’t really done in a while). With everyone at home already asleep, I took the opportunity to enjoy the quiet time.

This little bit of quiet time and reflection was exactly what I needed to recharge and get myself ready for another week.

Here’s to giving ourselves quality time and grounding for a more balanced life. 🌙✨

Things you need to know about SHRINK PLASTICS!

Watch this Quicklies guide to learn how to properly prepare your designs and what to do when working with shrink plastics.

1️⃣ Plan your size: Pieces shrink more than half of its original size.
2️⃣ Always draw on the rough side.
3️⃣ Color lightly as it will become darker after heating/shrinking.
4️⃣ Cut the pieces neatly, leaving a small border around the outline, and round the corners.
5️⃣ If planning to make a keychain, punch hole before shrinking.
6️⃣ Use a heat tool and an enclosure when shrinking the pieces.
7️⃣ Once shrunk, press it with a flat object for a smooth finish.

Keep these in mind before you get started on your first shrink plastic project. 💖

Many thanks to Bee Happy Ambassador Maridann of Whimsical Thoughts for this quick guide.

What other Quicklies would you like to see from us? Do let us know and we'll get around to making them!

: Reuniting with Acrylic Paints

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’d know that I rarely paint with acrylics. But before watercolor and long before I got into crafting, I was actually an acrylic painter.

I moved to watercolor because it was easier to work with in our small living space, so I thought I’d have to find my way around acrylics again after all this time. But surprisingly, it felt like riding a bike. 😅

I’m still amazed by how acrylics can show the brush marks, build up layers and textures, and give me so much flexibility when playing with light and shadows. There’s just something about the way the paint sits on the surface that I really missed. It feels good to reunite with an old favorite.

I’m excited to share the finished piece with you one of these days! ✨
