Ashley & Rabbitoffee

關於結婚

2012-02-02T01:13:00.003+08:00

"而我認為自己大學時唸什麼科目也沒關係, 因為我打算一畢業便結婚。"
高中自我介紹時, 有一位同學這樣說了。

當大家還在興致勃勃地選大學學系的時候, 這位同學便立下如此偉論, 我心裡無論如何也是非常佩服的。

很高興她在去年已完成了她的理想, 嫁人了。而我身邊的朋友也開始逐一地結婚了。

不過我感覺自己距離結婚還有很長的路要走呢, 所以還大家不用開始儲人情(放心吧)。

今天的印章靈感源自新娘子的花球。
挑的是我個人非常喜歡的山茶花組合,
我感覺這印章實在很適合做婚禮的賀卡或是小包裝哩。
在中間寫一些字或是印在卡角都依好看的感覺。(自我感覺良好中-U-)

同場加映, 上色後的小花。

忘了說,

Ashley終於找到印章教學的合適場所了, 最近正在籌備印章班中。地點暫定為尖沙咀或中環, 收費約莫是HKD450~550左右。上課時間為2小時, 人數大概是4~5人一班, 價錢已包括RABBITOFFEE的特製材料包一個。到時候Ashley 會為大家準備好所需用具, 大家只需準備雙手來帶走自己的成品便可以了。

因為現在還是非常初部的階段, 開班情況會視乎大家反應, 如果大家有興趣的話請務必讓我知道哩(Email: rabbitoffee@yahoo.com.hk)。其餘細節會在落實後公佈。

薔薇之鍵

2012-01-31T01:19:00.001+08:00

喜歡鑰匙,
因為鑰匙總會把人帶到另一個故事。
這把古舊鑰匙的主人, 是誰呢?

對於自己,
我感覺我的森女之魂最近被喚醒了哩, 真害羞>///<
每個女生, 內心都有一團森女之魂的吧? ~~(鬼故事嗎?)~~

再來一枚花草章

2012-01-29T20:27:00.000+08:00

最近愛上刻這一類的印章了。
花草章果然是令人身心舒暢無比的好東西呢~
最近看上了CLASSIQUE系的印泥, 現在腦海裡都是古典古典的圖案哩(轉轉圈)
暫時鎖定色系:
No 1. ROSE DUST
No 2. LILAC HAZE
No 3. RAW SIENNA
No 4. CRIMSON RED
No 5. NAVY BLUE
好像有點多...(?)吧

認真的印章

2012-01-28T20:57:00.000+08:00

今天想刻膠版。
每當刻膠版的時候人都會不其然的認真起來, 總覺得還是復古優雅系的圖案比較切合膠版印章的形象呢。
認真沒什麼不好, 只是人生若然只有認真便有點無聊。
還是天天換換刻刻比較適合我~~精神分裂~~的性格呢。

小兔子先生

2012-01-27T03:25:00.000+08:00

小時候, 每天下課的時間老師總會忙著在小朋友的家課冊上蓋上小白兔或小黑豬。

雖然明明那小白兔是用紅色印泥蓋的, 但小朋友們仍是會一天都乖乖的, 希望得到這隻小小的紅兔子。

如果我們要為自己每天的生活蓋印, 不知道收集到的小豬還是小兔子比較多呢?

而昨天沒有更新這裡的我, 已成功增加黑豬一枚。

寒冷天氣下的小企鵝兵團

2012-01-25T02:07:00.000+08:00

企鵝印章是在夏天的時候刻的, 那時看都沒有現在這麼深的感受。畢竟這幾天的天氣也不是一般的冷咩, 唔, 感覺大概是可以養一隻小企鵝的溫度差不多。雖說企鵝很可愛, 但我心裡還是希望家裡可以暖和一點的。>V<

所謂, 冷天有三寶, 熱茶,被子, 熱風槍。(我說的)
天氣這麼冷我又怎不能不翻出我的熱風槍來玩玩呢。順便暖暖身子嘛。
玩耍途中意外地發現當年因"發水"問題而讓我頭痛不已的VERSA COLOUR印泥竟然回復正常了!
我忽然感覺到自己在來年的運勢也是一片的光明呢~。
跟我一樣買了"發水"印泥的朋友不妨在這幾天視察一下你們的印泥吧!

同埸加映, 毛毛粉企鵝與正印相遇記。

寒冷天下不宜刻章

2012-01-24T02:16:00.000+08:00

今天過了一個溫暖的年初一~~即是窩在家裡~~。
因不想動腦筋的開係隨手盡了一個蕾絲章來刻。
不知道是天氣太冷還是太久沒刻膠版的關係, 覺得今天的膠板特別硬, 刀都塞不進去。
大概還是窩在被窩裡最好呢-u-

鋼絲刷唷鋼絲刷

2012-01-22T23:58:00.000+08:00

一直想試用鋼絲刷為印章營造特別的效果, 但因沒找到合適的刷子而久久沒有成事。

直至最近, 終於找到了一個好東西! 希望以下的分享能幫助想要買鋼絲刷的你~>u<

今次接受測試的兩位選手, 分別是

BRUSH A - 早年購於五金店的金色銅絲刷

BRUSH B - 最近於大創入手的銀色不鏽鋼刷, 三支組, 另有金色銅絲刷及黑色尼龍刷各一

結果發表,如下

1 - 印印原樣

2 - 輕刷後的效果

3 - 重刷後的效果

BRUSH A - 刷毛較軟, 刷出來的效果較柔和。但是刷子的鏽色會殘留在印印上, 令整個印章髒兮兮的。不建議使用。

BRUSH B - 刷毛較硬, 不掉色, 效果明顯。推薦使用, 但注意此刷殺傷力強, 刷時要小心刷傷印面。

同場加映, 木紋印印
4 - 濃墨大力印之效果
5 - 薄墨輕力印之效果

PS. 其實除了以上兩刷外, 我還試了大創組的金色銅絲刷, 發現跟BRUSH A 效果差不多, 大概所有金色刷毛的都會掉色?如果你有其他心得請務必告訴我哩!

送你一顆大愛心

2012-01-22T03:50:00.000+08:00

小兔子捧著大愛心要送給喜歡的人囉。阿哈。
看著就想用來蓋在情人節小禮物上呢。哈哈。

題外話, 話說早前一直用來清潔印章的卸妝油用光了。想再去買另一支的時候才發現店家已沒在賣, 因此要另覓新的卸妝油。因曾經聽說過印面被卸妝油腐蝕掉的可怕故事, 所以我也不敢輕舉妄動胡亂地買。

左看右看, 結果買了以下這一支。

清潔效果還算不錯的。買到了好東西哩。

復古的木頭

2012-01-21T01:00:00.000+08:00

果然, 想要與別不同的木手柄必須得動動手腳才行。
今天當了油漆小工, 把手上一些木手柄上了底色。
呼~這次用的顏料是"OLD VILLAGE", 質地厚厚的十分濃稠, 厚塗用很有質感。色澤偏向啞啞的那種, 十分復古。
不過相片中的木柄才上了一層的顏料, 乾透後還要再上面漆及打磨。
其實做手柄也是相當浩大的工程哩。

Everyone is unique.

2012-01-20T01:39:00.000+08:00

吃玉米爆谷的時候, 我總愛先挑看上去與別不同的一顆。

最喜歡那些不小心混進的巧克力爆谷, 在淡黃色的爆谷堆中, 有時是一顆, 有時是兩顆。雖然不特別好吃, 但彷彿吃了這天便會特別幸運。

大概在每個人心裡, 也會有這種與別不同的存在吧?

不過, 如果把這張小卡送給那位與別不同的存在也真是一件害羞的事哩...哈哈>///< ((說什麼呀))

**這次在巧克力爆谷做了EMBOSSING, 感覺滿不錯的, 真可惜拍照看不到唷。

被吃掉和被吐出來的世界

2012-01-19T01:03:00.000+08:00

巴士是一隻會走的巨大怪獸, 每天早上都會來一遍, 把一個個睡眼惺忪的大人吞進肚子裡。吃飽了便驅著轟隆轟隆的聲響離去, 留下古怪的消化的氣味。

每天上班的時候, 我是這樣想的。我不想跟大家一起被吃掉, 因此我討厭巴士。

被吃掉, 被吐出來, 被吃掉, 被吐出來。

儘管不是很願意, 可是一旦墜入大人的世界, 便會進入被吃掉和吐出來的旋渦。或許我打從心底裡討厭是這種重複的生活, 又或者是上班吧?

大人的世界太苦悶, 或許實在需要一些色彩, 為無聊的生活帶來一點情趣哩。

同一個世界

2012-01-18T00:43:00.000+08:00

我總是被抱怨雜物太多。
也是呢。
自從開始手作這玩意, 東西開始向四方八面擴展。
首先是抽屜, 然後是書桌, 緊接著是書櫃, 最後連衣櫥也失守了。
現在的我身處一個手作材料的圍城, 要在時刻防範山泥傾潟的發生的警覺下, 生活著。
差不多是這樣吧。

手作的東西太鎖碎, 工具多而且購買又不容易。遇到心頭好如果不立刻買下, 很多時候隔天就不見了。加上材料種類多, 很多都想試, 但一買下就很多, 不合用的話又放著。再者, 對印章人來說, 印章的木柄就像衣櫥的衣服一樣, 永遠缺一塊。專賣店很遠, 特地去買車費又貴, 結果就買下了。種種因由, 東西多也是理所當然的。

而且也是沒有辨法的事哩~(攤手)

不過, 我相信我不是孤獨的, 因為我知道世上有很多~~敗家會員~~手作朋友跟我活在相同的境況。

MY 2012

2012-01-16T22:28:00.000+08:00

拖拉半個月後終於捨得回來寫網誌了。
其實這2012年開始以來一直也有斷斷續續地做些印章, 只是沒有想到如何寫一篇相關的文章。後來, 在愛理不理的情況之下, 一推又是十多天的日子, 加起來前前後後又到了月中。

~~幸好, 我是一個中國人, 離農曆新年尚有一段日子呢, 呼~~~

新年第一個刻的印章對我來說有一種特別的意義, 因為它代表著我在未來一年的目標和願望。

記得在2010新年的時候, 第一個刻圖案就是一隻趴在枕頭上休息的小兔子, 一開始只是興之所至隨手刻刻, 沒想到後來就真的理所當然地休息起來了。算一算, 從那時到現在, 一來便休息了兩年多了呢, 甚至連2011年的新年許願也省略了(喂)。~~唔~看來我真是一個認真實行目標的好孩子呢。~~ 思前想後, 今年我再也不能懶洋洋了, 所以嘛, 就特地刻了這個圖案,希望在新一年我能好好地向自己的目標前進。

今年的願望特別多, 關於印章的也好, 關於自己的也好, 有很多想做的事。相信這會相當充實的一年哩。

關於蕾絲

2011-12-29T00:46:00.000+08:00

泛白的日光穿透交錯的紗線走過古舊的木地板枝枝作響, 窗外的影子與木框內不斷的重疊的線圈交織成一張蕾絲, 凝住了早冬略微乾燥的空氣。濕度過低的空氣讓人鼻腔發酸, 看著梭上才剩一半的蕾絲線, 你才發現這年的冬天來得特別晚。也許是時候完成這蕾絲了呢。你說。

蕾絲印章 5.5CM x 2.5CM

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

今天是聖誕節, 祝大家聖誕快樂!!!

JCCAC手作市集後記之二

2011-12-22T21:08:00.000+08:00

兩天的市集對已經休息了接近一年的我來說是一個很大的挑戰。
其實當初參加的時候是打算跟朋友合租一張桌子的, 不過在很多偶然下最後還是決定自己試試。其實在市集前我也滿緊張的, 畢竟有些擔心自己一個人沒法支持一個檔攤((感覺空出一半位置不是很好吧...)), 能順利完成市集實在太好了~呼~感謝各位支持哩!

市集可說是一個手作界的嘉年華會, 這裡薈集了各方熱愛手作的人仕。很高興在這裡遇上了很多新的朋友, 也有很多傳說中的人!!! 很開心跟大家相認了! 此外, 也有很多人跟我說"沒想到在這裡看到你!!!"(真的很多很多), 不知道我跟你們想像中是不是一樣的呢? 說起來就汗顏, 原來有看我部落格的人也得是超乎我想像的多...對不起我一直沒更新這個鳥不生蛋的地方呀哈哈哈, 原諒我吧。我會改善的! 唷!

喏, JCCAC手作市集不愧是市集的大哥, 檔攤數目和訪客人數都不是一般的多。口。!是無敵的多! 完全超出我的預計!((也有可以是我預計得太輕鬆了呢~~~))

兩天的市集基本上是在一片混亂中度過的。左邊有人在問價錢右邊又有客人要付錢, 還有另一邊有人拿起材料包查詢, 卡片一下子就派光光了又要忙準備。我想, 當天的我一定像極一隻七手八腳的章魚小姐了。如果當天你遇見的是那個手忙腳亂的我, 請務必原諒我沒辦法好好招待你呀!

當然除了看家以外我也有到處玩啦! 看到有很多想買的東西((包括羊毛口金包, 紙製飾品...))最後嘛...成功"置業了! 買了兩家陶瓷小屋!很開心!

還有還有,,,
- 與金麥姬小姐相認了, 謝謝你的禮物! 我會好好利用它的!下次別客氣了!
- 買了材料包的你們, 請加油呀! 下次跟我分享你們的作品吧!
- 來探望我的各位, 謝謝你們的支持! 我很感動!
- 我會多些更新這BLOG的, 請為我加油吧>V< <-(喂)

JCCAC手作市集後記

2011-12-18T23:55:00.000+08:00

終於完成了一連兩天的手作市集!
呼~有一種完成了一個大任務的感覺哩!很滿足!
感謝各位的支持和鼓勵!真的十分感謝! 你們的每一句支持話語我都有好好記在心裡的。((也很幸運地沒聽到/遇到什麼恐怖事件:-P))
經過漫長的休息後, RABBITOFFEE將會在不久的將來有些變動, 希望可以帶給大家一些新的驚喜。請期待哩!(雖然這樣說有點不好意思呢!)

***真正的後記嘛,讓我休息一天明天再寫吧:-P

《看!這是我的名字印記唷!》Ashley 的 A.c.o.r.n.! (開箱篇)

2011-06-01T23:39:00.000+08:00

笨蛋的我居然限制了留言權限還不知道, 為大家帶來不便抱歉唷。現己重新開放留言。

經過漫長的等待郵差先生終於安全把小雞用心包裝妥當的小卡送到囉! 下班後直奔回家, 急不及待便打開仔細欣賞。

貼心的主辦人為小卡們做了一個古典的小家。一貫的細膩風格, 小巧又可愛。

打開裡面是一張很有心思的拍立得小卡, 果然是貫徹了小卡的主題唷。還有一封小信。很貼心的。

近鏡一枚。我喜歡可以拉下的設計。

吃了頭盤和沙拉, 接下來的主菜來囉!

為了~~躲懶拍每張圖的特寫~~保持作品的神秘感, 我決定只在這裡享小卡們的團體大合照,強列建議大家到小卡主人的網誌參觀參觀唷。這裡每一張卡滿載著的除了作者的心意和心思外,還有大家獨特的風格和想法,每張卡都獨一無二的哩!

傳說中小樂的精緻(其實在上次橡皮章環遊世界中已見識過,只是這次又更上一層樓了呀)

EVA, PANDA, 小雞的甜蜜可愛,

YING和小角的清新可喜,

HARU和ALICE的優雅古典......

還有還有......

真高興參與了這次活動! 一直身為潛水客的我今天才知道原來有如此多的印印同好呢! 大概我早早就該多找大家麻煩玩玩的(笑)!希望大家下次能再一起來玩囉。

按這裡可到主辦人的部落格, 了解更多這次的活動及連結到其他參加朋友的部落格唷!

《看!這是我的名字印記唷!》Ashley 的 A.c.o.r.n.! (製作篇)

2011-05-30T23:29:00.000+08:00

呼呀~終於完成了小雞舉辦的《看!這是我的名字印記唷!》小活動囉!
自上次完成橡皮章環遊世界後再一次參與活動與喜歡印章的朋友一起玩, 真的很開心呢!
謝謝大家用心製作的小卡, 每一張都讓我好感動, 真的!
謝謝小雞老師為我們花的每一份心思, 窩心得來是另一份感動! (你們看了不要太妒嫉哩)

感謝小雞貼心地把報名時間設在星期天, 讓我這種一天忙到晚的上斑族也能在電腦前倒數著報名(不然我大概會跟大家的小卡無緣了...(抱著小卡淚奔))。吸收了上次製作環遊世界小卡的超趕忙慘痛經驗, 今次我實在不敢怠慢, 趁著4月底和5月初的假期趕工完成了!呼呼~幸好過程尚算順利雖然冒失情況依然百出, 總算能在期限前寄出, 真是謝天謝地。

被印得一塌糊塗的印章們不知道會不會狠我這個媽媽呢?

要想一個既可愛又優雅而且不失發揮空間的A字首英文生字對於脫離學生時代已有一段時間的我來說的確有點困難......
正確來說我只想到A FOR APPLE B FOR BOY而已......
所以在這個苦惱時刻我就跑去翻了翻塵封的字典......A...A...A...
竟然給我發現了手作人的好朋友- ACORN - 松果!

想好題材後便馬上開始了。

拙作一枚。
受上次交換活動激發後, 產生出"幼線來做做看吧!"的念頭。
本來構圖只有小松鼠的窩, 後來發現圖太簡單, 便找來了一枚"枝枝果樹苗"章趕緊蓋上, 然後又感覺不夠色彩, 又抓了軟橡皮印上彩色點點......

最後! 竟然後知後覺發現要在圖中加上自己的名字(我也太迷糊了吧...), 又趕緊刻好加上......

終於完成了!

包好寄出後便是一段漫長的等待與期待......

我的75個小印章繼續進行中

2011-05-02T00:31:00.000+08:00

雖然我沒有太多的時間可以更新網誌, 但是你看看我是有在每天每天認真地做我的小印章的唷!
現在已經累積到十五個了!雖然還欠下七八個沒做......

我要努力!希望能續一補回每一個小印章。

不過......我真的很討厭BLOGSPOT不能COPY&PASTE......有點想轉回YAHOO......

75個小印章企劃 - 4月17日

2011-04-17T22:40:00.000+08:00

今天收到的是鯨魚先生的一場噴水表演哩!

今天收到大熊先生送我的一罈蜂蜜

2011-04-17T01:51:00.000+08:00

今天收到小狗送我的一根骨頭

2011-04-16T00:37:00.000+08:00

特備企劃- 讓我每天送你一顆小小的印章

2011-04-15T01:01:00.000+08:00

((4月13日)) 很快我就25歲了, 人家說, 女生一到了25歲, 人就開始老了。機能開始衰退...... 動不動就累..... 捱夜捱不久.... 皺紋動不動跑出來... 老了呀...所以呀, 在我25歲之前, 我希望每天能送自己一顆小印章, 一直到我25歲那一天。那麼累積下來75份小小的祝福再加起生日蛋糕上的25支燒蠟蠋, 就剛好是100哩。至少人老左都有個伴嘛。

今天就出發! 帶我去環遊世界吧! +U+

2011-04-11T22:58:00.000+08:00

感謝EⅤA朋友不嫌我行動緩慢,讓我也有機會一起參與這個橡皮章環遊世界的活動, 跟大家一起參觀世界不同的國家,好興奮唷! 這是我第一次參與印章明信片交換活動,心情好緊張,第一次準備如此巨大的印章(其實也沒很大,只是我慣常都做較小巧的), 也第一次切身体會到蓋印蓋到翻桌的滋味哈哈哈(原來準備22份明信片一點都不易,為了搞定蓋印時發生的狀況,我大概蓋了雙倍份量才能完成哩=u=")

當收到大家用心製作的明信片那一份感動真是難以言喻, EVA的手工信封跟飛機票更是可愛得沒話說。真是一份充滿用心的信件呀。

讓我們乘坐EVA航空, 一起出發吧!

打開信件都是大家的心血結晶哩! ((這畫面像不像雜誌社抽獎的信海???! 反正就是很有氣勢哈哈...天呀......這是什麼形容詞......))

我要帶大家去的地方的是印度! 有人說很不像我本人會選的國家......唔, 其實也不是啦我是滿喜歡印度的, 印象中的印度充滿神秘色彩, 風景怡人, 有創意, 城市有特色...... 而且女生又長的美哈哈是一個讓人充滿靈感的地方。這次的印章因時間倉猝及欠缺經驗及本人懶等因素, 出來效果並不是很令人滿意, 希望大家多多包涵郵章是TOFFEE放紙飛機, 其實沒什麼特別的意思, 純粹貫徹環遊世界的主題哩。:-P

我大概是不適合生活在城市的。

2010-10-24T12:49:00.000+08:00

我大概是不適合生活在城市的。

先是電腦病了, 然後到我。

頭一次真切感覺到污染的嚴重 (之前的都只是感覺到, 現在是觸得到的可怕)
首先是眼睛敏感, 到臉頰, 再來重感冒。全身乏力, 腰酸背痛。

累呀。

想找個地方逃出去。

逃到樹熊星去。至少有得訓下。

2010-10-01T23:07:00.000+08:00

Made these two little stamp a few days ago.

Ai ya...I lost all the back-up files today...so sad...maybe a ghost has stolen them all away...

我身體內的新成員

2010-09-29T23:38:00.000+08:00

中秋節吃了很了很多的月餅, 過完中秋後牙肉有點痛楚。

本來以為是吃掉太多雜食的後遺症, 直至有天發現牙肉上多了一點小小的異物, 弄來弄去才知道身體有個新成員要來了((幸好未有聽聞牙肉會生癌-_-"))

某位長了智齒的人說長智齒智慧就跑出來...還說自己16歲就儲好一套4款...喎

我一邊嗯嗯嗯一邊想智慧搞不好一長出來就遇水化掉像大白兔糖的米紙

也許該吃些大白兔糖補番下。

MINI STAMP!

2010-09-23T00:13:00.000+08:00

It's interesting that most of the Japanese artists have mini signature stamps in around 1cmx1cm.

I also tried to make one yesterday night when I was free:-)

I made this stamp during night time, so it was a bit hard for me to see all the lines very clearly when I hand carved it. Let me try another with finer line in the day time sin, haha.

中秋節快樂!

2010-09-23T00:04:00.000+08:00

祝大家過了一過快樂的中秋節!

suddenly, he fall asleep.

2010-09-18T00:27:00.001+08:00

The screen suddenly turned blue, and then black. No responses afterwards.
My notebook go to bed suddenly on Wednesday night.

Luckily, he was not so sleepy and wake up at the end.
Thanks my dad for waking him up.;-) I hope he won't fall asleep again...

my little gift

2010-09-18T00:21:00.000+08:00

Got these last Sunday during Tsubuan Stamp's Demonstration. He did a "big cat moon" card for me which is very "mid-autumn festival". I just think I am like the little cat in the card, looking at his DEMO like looking at the moon?!

And you may also see the stamp he made during additional DEMO section. Very nice!

Thank you! Tsuban Stamp!

2010-09-14T01:03:00.000+08:00

"Do you hand carve stamps every day? Do you feel tired of it?"
"This is my job. And I love it."

As I do not speak any Japanese, we can only communicate with simple English. But I can feel his passion towards stamp carving and his professionalism of being an artist.

He is a very nice and kind person who loves to share what he likes with the others. We had had a good time for art exchange!

Thanks you for giving us such a good demonstration of stamp carving and the professionalism of an artist!

給TSUBUAN STAMP 的禮物

2010-09-12T01:04:00.000+08:00

日本人眼中的中國風?!
我想除了杏仁豆腐和芒果布甸外, 中式飲茶也算是吧。呵呵。

我很幸運, 因為我遇上了你。

2010-09-10T00:19:00.000+08:00

我家有一個孩子, 叫TOFFEE, 是我的寶貝。
不知是否因為出生不久便被我們帶了回家的關係, 這孩子特別愛黏人, 行為也不像正常的兔子。喜歡霸佔主人的睡床打側身睡眠, 聽見別人談論自己時豎起耳朵。

每次凝視著這孩子, 我都覺得對他有很大的虧欠。
他的生命，就只有一個主人。我能做的, 就是讓他每一天開心的過。

希望我可以有更多更多的時間, 陪你在一起。
讓你知道我很幸福, 因為我遇上了你。

昨天

2010-09-09T01:11:00.000+08:00

匆匆上上海, 又匆匆回來了。
三小時的機程太倉促, 還來不及把上海的氣味吹散。
身處風雨交加的香港, 忽然有點掛念昨天的我。

今年的上海比以往清潔了很多, 很明顯下了很多的功夫。希望下次來探望你的時候不是走馬看花。

Mum! Look at my new ear ring

2010-09-06T00:35:00.000+08:00

Mum! Look at my new ear ring!

**I did this silver ring last week when I took a silver ring lesson in a local handmade studio.
It's my first time of having this kind of class. It was quite a fun experience, but very tiring.

我的雨天

2010-09-04T22:10:00.000+08:00

今天是雨天。

我喜歡雨天, 因為我喜歡樹木被雨水洗刷後的清新氣味, 還有濕潤空氣的那股透明感。
我還依稀記得小學那一本文字推理上, 有這樣的一題:
EG. 晴天配熱鬧和海灘
雨天配 __________

我已經記不起當時的我選了入什麼, 不過今天我想挑悠閒和家中。
悠閒在家中清空家中的雜物, 真是一個好活動;

然後我看見桌上有些沒用的玻璃瓶,
然後我想可以留著別浪費,
然後我打算用印章在上面印些東西,
然後我想可以試試做白色以外的顏色,

然後我外出買了兩支新的印墨,

結果東西沒整理好, 反而多了。
.
.
.
.
.
.
不過好在這兩支墨, 顏色靚。

I am back!

2010-08-02T20:11:00.000+08:00

Finally came back from Japan yesterday morning!

My brain is now full of new designs elements, cannot stop running.@_@

2010 July - Rabbitoffee Collection - Walking in the summer garden

2010-07-16T01:15:00.001+08:00

Hi everyone! Here is the latest collection of Rabbitoffee.

I would like to bring everybody a colourful and happy collection with a lot of image of small animals and insects.

painting?!

2010-06-28T00:05:00.000+08:00

To Ashley

2010-06-12T22:30:00.000+08:00

Dear Ashley in 2010,

I find this anniversary stamp in the bottom of your drawer when I was tidying up my room today.

I am happy to see your improvement in lines of your stamps. However, please put more effort in exploring new dimension in handmade. I really hope that you could bring me some surprise in the coming future. And one more point, I really hope that you will not throw you stamps here and there again in the future. I don't want to see your stamp in the bottom of the drawer again.

Yours,

Ashley in 2009

NEW HANDMADE MARKET?!

2010-06-07T23:43:00.000+08:00

I used to be happy when I discover new website and blogs making original handmade in the past. Not only do I appreciate the techniques and designs of the handmade crafts, but also the "heart" and effort behind each and every piece.

No matter who the artist is, no matter what the handmade is.

However, I found quite a lot of so called"handmade" shop popping up these days, claiming that they are selling original products and designs, including handmade materials all over the world. But at the end... I usually found those products very similar to what I have seen from other overseas artists, or even local artists.

It's very sad, but true.

Copy cats usually claim that they are just inspired by certain artists or that is just coincidence.
In fact, it's pointless to defense for yourself with these points. Whenever somebody says that you are very alike with someone, there is already something wrong.

Is it really that hard to behave oneself of not copying the others? I don't think so.

Please respect yourself. And respect the others.

Oh I am a little bit nervous!

2010-06-07T20:39:00.000+08:00

I am a little bit nervous after knowing the arrival of my rubber stamp certificate kit package.
This package is much much more difficult than the one that I had last time and requires more in depth knowledge in rubber stamp hand carving.
I am looking forward to receiving my huge parcel.:-P

HIDE AND SEEK!

2010-06-04T20:07:00.001+08:00

Having fun?

Versa Magic!

2010-06-04T19:50:00.000+08:00

I have just received these lovely stamp pad in a total o 18 colours in these few days~J

Too lovely too own!

The pigment of these stamp pad could be applied on to the leather stamps easily~OH~very nice!:-)

SOFT PASTELS!

2010-04-19T23:58:00.000+08:00

Longing for this box of pastels for years and I have finally got it.

Love the texture and colour hues so much!

leather stamp!

2010-04-17T22:48:00.000+08:00

I am very keen on playing this kind of leather rubber stamp these days!

After a few experiments during the ester holidays, I am now brave enough to show my new works to all of you. It takes me some time to be familiar with the texture of this new material as it is much harder then normal rubber board. However, the incredible extra fine lines and smooth surfaces are too amazing. Like what another handmade artist Dakiki said ‘It makes me addicted to it!’... yes…its very ture…

I have to make one before I sleep every night now…it’s like drug…~_~

Don’t try that if you have not started yet…

a certificate

2010-04-17T21:36:00.000+08:00

This very cute certificate is a rubber stamps hand carving certificate issued by Hinodewashi Co., Ltd in Japan. I have received a well marked “examination paper” together with this certificate! The exam paper full of comments hand written by the examination (in red!)! It looks as serious as the mid-term examination I had ever taken!

This is the first time for me to have this kind of examination and I was deeply impressed by the professionalism of Japanese. I appreciate their persistence towards perfection to each and every little part in their daily life.

And after acquiring the basic level rubber stamps hand carving certificate, I am going to take the intermediate and upper level exam soon. Good luck to me~

Get Dreams!

2010-04-15T23:05:00.000+08:00

I am not a person who is good at numbers. That’s why I always like to see real money in hand more than numbers on the bank statements.

To me, it’s kind of fun to save money in a little coin can. As I never count how many coins I have put in it, I am always surprised by the can when I open it. And I love to add colours to my life which is usually a little bit dull by these little surprises.It is more than happy to use the money to buy a little gift to myself, my family or the one I loved.

I bought this coin can last week, and I was very impressed by the words “Get dreams” on it. Because I can imagine when I put my coins in it, I am like saving a little bit of my dream and getting closer and closer to it. Closer and closer…then, I know… I could finally reach it.

An Experiment

2010-02-20T02:57:00.000+08:00

I have brought some coloured hot glue some times ago, but have no time to play with them. And today I have a chance to do experiment with them! Oh~ I am so excited!

At First, I want to stamp on the melted hot glue and shape the glue... However... I totally failed...and I damaged my hand carved stamp...OMG...I have not even used it once T^T
Poor stamp, Mama will miss you.

I was so depressed when I "kill" my stamp, so I squeezed out all the leftover melted glue on papers.
Accidentally, they appear very cute, like little rain drops. Haha.

Should I be happy for it? :-)

My Little Stamp Rocord Book

2010-02-20T02:15:00.000+08:00

I didn't use to record what I have hand carved in the past, but I have started this new habit this year.

I have found a little self-adhesive photo album in brown for my work record. The album is made of brown paper with raw handmade feeling, together with a hard cover(like library books) which would not curl easily.

Every time when I finish a new design, I could choose my favorite colour and stamp it on a piece of paper separately. I no longer need to be afraid that the whole album would be ruined when I chop the stamp at a improper position. :-) (too happy with it! I could have a good sleep tonight)

對於時常更新網誌的人, 我是十分佩服的。因為...

更新網誌這回事, 是十分困難的。尤其對於不善辭令的我來說更是一件苦差。

每次下定決心要更新的時候, 總是不能持之以恆。找來很多很多的理由, 推說沒話好說啦電腦沒倉頡字碼啦沒有陽光不能拍照啦上班太忙啦睏啦沒心情啦, 諸如此類。
我曾經向人討教, 也嘗試強迫自己, 但都失敗。

別人說: 很想知道你的動向, 快更新吧。

我說: 好呀。
卻始終無動於衷。

像一個太過古舊的大鐘, 漸漸的停下來了。於是別人也再不叫我了。

也許我也實在是太懶了點呢。

悠閒不是不好, 只是我也悠閒了過久的時間。

也許是時候再上發條, 運動一下呢。

至於欠下未寫的網誌, 就在未來的日子慢慢補回吧。唔 *人*

Why don't you update!? Because Toffee is sick again!

2009-11-09T23:00:00.000+08:00

What is it? Neither a picture randomly selected from flickr nor google.

Yes, you may know, It's a X-way picture of my baby Toffee. Yes, my baby Toffee is sick again.

Toffee was not eating and drinking for a whole day on the 2/11. And it seems that Toffee had no energy to step even a little step.

We were so worried about it and bought it to vet immediately once we noticed it. The vet said luckily we discovered it in an early stage and Toffee was just a little bit dehydrated. However, that could already be very serious for a little bunny like Toffee. T^T And he suggested Toffee to stay in the veterinary clinic for 2 days. Sigh...We have no choice but to pass Toffee to the vet for the sake of Toffee's health.

Luckily, Toffee got well very soon. It 's now much better. However, we still need to take extra care for this baby.

Rabbitoffee X WWF

2009-09-07T00:28:00.000+08:00

We have been talking about this event for long. Finally, all the details of the exhibition are finalized and will be ready in coming October. It was the first time for me to hold a exhibition involving charity.

To me, Handmade is not only something beautiful, it could be something more, like telling a story or spreading some massages. That's want I want to start this event. Thanks to WWF, Petit Morpho and Shizue who help me to realize my silly ideas.

In the exhibition, a series of endangered species rubber stamps is open or auction. All proceeds will be donated to WWF Hong Kong to support their conservation and education works. I will be in Petit Morpho to meet you in some of the selected days and I will pose the details here after finalizing all the things. See you soon!

Gift From My Student

'The private lesson' was successfully ended last week. It was happy and enjoyable to share the fun of hand craving rubber stamps with the other, especially with people who love rubber stamps. I really enjoy the time with each of my students.:-)

At the end of the lessons, we had prepared a hand made rubber stamp for each other. The 'heart' and the quality of the rubber stamps really surprised me! All of them are soooo cute and beautiful. I am sure that they will be the the most memorable rubber stamps that I have ever had. :-)

New Start

2009-08-31T21:23:00.000+08:00

After running Rabbitoffee for a year, we think it's a appropriate time to start something new and try something different.

To start with, we move to a new blog. Hopefully we will update it more frequently.

Thank you for your support from time to time and please keep supporting us in the coming days!
