0 Hobby to the extreme: Super-sized Paper Craft! 0_o

Hobby to the extreme? Definately. XD

Like many hobby enthusiasts, it's just not as enthusiastic until you take it to the major extreme (Note on how it's in bold letters). How extreme are we saying? I'm saying extreme in size and in some cases to the amount of detail put into their art... and the lengths people go to - to be the very first.   

The best thing as many of us know when you make paper craft is that it's a pretty cheap hobby but you get similar results to an actual figure that you buy in toy stores, or a replica of the desired object. Basically, all you need is a printer, paper, cutting tools (scissors, cutters), tweezers, a ruler, a blunt pin/run out ink pen and pretty much a pc/laptop to print out your templates with. Not that hard, right? 

This one's still small, wait till you see the Super-Sized one!

Well, my friends, here I give you some of the extreme things people do for paper craft.

 Optimus Prime Movie Paper Craft

Paper Prime: "I am Optimus Prime, Leader of the Autobots."

What's better than the big Huge Autobot Commander Optimus Prime himself? Since, you know, he's pricey if you buy him as a toy, why not make him out of paper and welcome him to the family? 

0 Noodle Omelette

Dinner time ^^

The whole noodle omelette :)

Hungry and need something instant but with lots of vegetables. Aha! Noodle omelette! (I know, omelette again hehe).


How to make this? It's pretty much the same as the fusilli omelette recipe but instead you use noodles and more spices like chilli and shallot. You can also add a little bit of oyster sauce and sweet soy sauce for that extra flavour.


Hope you enjoy this one food lovers ^^

0 Fusilli Omelette

Spice this omelettle well and you have a whole meal :)

First of all, I am an egg lover and the omelette's been one of my favourite meals of all time. It's actually my favourite breakfast since I was a child. The smell of the cooked eggs and fresh vegetables will always be fresh in my memory. There I go again exaggerating food hehe.

One night, for dinner, I wanted to cook up something quick and easy. I wasn't looking for something heavy either so I decided to go down the path of the omelette, but with a slight twist. How? By adding fusilli :)

In the end, it turned out great and more than I expected. Not only that it tasted really delicious but also looked pretty because of the twirling fusilli and the colourful vegetables. I guess cuisine is also a work of art. With food, you paint your meal with the colour of your ingredients.

So, my fellow food lovers, try this one out and enjoy your meal ^^

Ingredients:

0 Healthy Bruschetta

Fresh meal for any time of the day :)

Up close and personal :)

First of all, I am not a nutritionist or a dietitian so I don't know how healthy this recipe actually is. Nonetheless, this is one of the freshest dishes ever. No cooking involved, just chopping, slicing and mixing. I've always had a thing for bread and vegetables and after browsing for bruschetta recipes, this is what I came up with. 

Hope you enjoy this one, try out the freshness people ^^

0 Styling Up Your Hijab

Me, styling it up a bit for my friend's wedding :).

The thing about us, ladies, is that we take ages in preparing for certain events or even daily activities while most men take about only 5 minutes to prepare (I know, the gap between the time differences is pretty huge). Nonetheless, I guess that's the basic nature of us, we just love to beautify things and in the end the time spent was certainly worth it right? ;).

On a daily basis, I'm usually the casual type of person. I don't take much time when preparing to go out. I usually go for the basic blouse, shirt, and the basic hijab style. A little bit of loose powder and a beige or nude colour lipstick with extra moisture (my lips dry easily, it can get kind of annoying and look a bit freaky ;p) to top it off.

So, for my friend's wedding, I decided to style it up a bit. Took the extra step out of my comfort zone. I wasn't sure of what style I was going to try so I searched on my favourite search engines (you know them all right ;)). What I found was more than what I hoped for. Here, I found a Youtube channel from Ms Yuliasih  with lots of styles to choose from. I just love how she makes these easy, simple, yet beautiful modifications. I became her fan instantly hehe.

For the occasion, I chose the one in the video below:

In the end, I didn't have to go to the beauty saloon to prep up for the occasion thanks to this tutorial. I think, trying things out and being able to do them yourself certainly feels much better than paying someone or some people for a service.

So ladies, if you want to style it up or try something different, just go to her channel. There's plenty to choose from. ^^


"Selamat Mencoba" ^^ 
(Good Luck)

0 Go Typo with Typography! ;)

Typography is an art that is based on typos or what many of us call text.

It's a rather simple and straight forward art than that of the basis on drawing skills. So if you're not good at drawing with a pencil or any other sort of art utensil then this is the art for you. As I said, I can't stress you enough how you only use just text, but can make the cutest, most awesome and even inspirational pictures.

Here's a few I've done:

You can do it Cute ^_^ :

My fav Norton Hear's a Who quote.  

You can do it for Quotes:

One of my fav quotes. 

You can even do it if your a real fan of something: 

All names of the Autobots (cartoons, comics, toys, and heck the movies)

I'm a real Transformers fan. Sue me. =D

So basically, Typography is mostly about positioning and editing letters together to make it into an artistic picture which requires a lot of patience at times but can be really fun + addictive too. If you're feeling bored and don't know what to do, try making something like Typography, it keeps you entertained for hours. :D


Hope you enjoyed this post~!

0 Fulfilling Salad

One whole meal salad :)

Salads are one of the easiest dishes to make. All you have to do is cut, slice, maybe boil or steam a bit here and there and voila you have something to eat. It doesn't require chef talent, just chopping skills and basic logic. Not only that, your body needs veggies so it's pretty much healthy for you.


At most times, salads are normally considered as a light snack or appetizer. Here, a thought came into my mind, "hey, why not make the salad into a whole one stop meal?" It could work I suppose. Kids might like this since most of them are on anti-veggie side.


So, one morning I gave it a go. I only used extra virgin oil and garlic for the main dressing and it was delicious and fulfilling. Fulfilling as in by the end of the meal, my stomach was full but not stuffed. Simply just right.


Here's my recipe and what I did, hope you enjoy this one ^^


Ingredients:

0 Fettucinne Alfredo

Chicken Spaghetti Alfredo for the whole family :)

I think most of the people on this planet has or at least at one time had had a craving for Italian food. With the Pizza Hut franchise going worldwide, nearly everyone in this world has tasted Italian cuisine. Whether it's the genuine recipe or not, the tomato paste, cooked beef or chicken, and melting mozzarella cheese certainly has done things to you. On the whole, Italian cuisine makes you crave for more. 

Rather going to Pizza Hut or Izzi Pizza or even Italy ;D, I went on Youtube on a journey to find Italian recipes so that I can make them myself. Please note that living in a tropical country makes it a bit tricky to actually get the right ingredients. But nonetheless, with extra food obsessed spirit, use of local and imported ingredients  and smart budgeting, the success in the end of being able to make the recipes is one worthwhile experience.

Fettuccine Alfredo is one of my favourite Italian dishes. I just love how the cream and the garlic flavours melt into your mouth. On a cold rainy day, fettuccine alfredo certainly soothes you inside out.

So ladies and gentlemen, this is my journey with fettuccine alfredo :D

0 CFC - Crazy for Cuteness

Small is beautiful especially when it's in cuby and chibi style. I've been browsing a lot on paper craft and so I thought, why not make them too? There are plenty of paper craft templates that you can search and download on the internet. It turns out that doing this activity is a lot of fun and soothing too. The best part is in the end, you get to go crazy over the cuteness. Yup, the figures are so cute that you would go, "aww, so cuteee!"  

Hope you enjoy the cuteness people ^^
