Smurf World #2: Gutsy

Gutsy Smurf
It is an exclusive Smurf character that only appears in the The Smurfs movie 2011. He was created for the film and does not appear in the comics or in The Smurfs cartoon series.

I didn't buy a ready-made Gutsy for it is too expensive (RM46.00).

I bought a common Smurf instead (for only RM18.00), and made some changes for him.

This is the most common Smurf you can buy at any plush stores for approximately RM18.00 to RM10.00. It appears without a single accessory.

Using brown plush cloth, make eye-brows for the smurf. Glue them on.

You can buy the brown plush cloth at KAMDAR.

Cut a piece of brown plush cloth to make Gutsy's sideburns.

Gutsy Smurf must look like, somehow, Elvis Presley.

Create a Scottish costume for Gutsy. A skirt, belt, brown pouch/bag and sling cloth.

Brown felt cloth can be used to make Gutsy's bag and belt.

Cut a piece of blue plush cloth to make a pluffy ball.

Attach the pluffy ball to the very end/top of Gutsy's hat.

Gutsy Smurf!!! Here you are!!!!

Smurf World #1: My Smurfs Family

I currently fall in love with The Smurfs...they are such cute little blue creatures.

Meet my lovely smurfs! I smurfly love them...

These are amongst the main characters in The Smurfs. In The Smurf comic, we have Papa Smurfs, 99 male Smurfs, 2 female Smurfs (Smurfette and Sassette), Grandpa Smurf, Granny Smurf and 3 Smurflings.

Clumsy Smurf is the most common smurf character you can get at any plush store. He represents the most simple smurf among all, without a single accesories. Each smurf has his/her own characteristics, with significant personality. They can be distinguished by different accessories they are holding. FYI, Clumsy Smurf is the cheapest smurf at market. I bought Clumsy for RM18.00 only. You are lucky enough to get the lower price...down to RM15.00 to RM10.00, could be. It depends on how you bargain with the store owner.

The more accessories a smurf has, the more expensive its price is.

An exclusive smurf like Gutsy Smurf is hardly seen at any plush stores. He could be sold at RM46.00 **nett. Well, I'm not joking. I didn't buy Gutsy. I made Gutsy's costume myself instead. I used a common smurf and put some sideburns on his face. I will show you how I made Gutsy in the next post.

Another example: Vanity Smurf is the only smurf who wears a flower on his hat and is always with his mighty mirror.

That's why I made my smurfs' accessories myself..hahaha.

I bought Vanity for RM18.00, without a mirror. So, I created Vanity's mirror myself.

I'll show you how I made other accessories for the other smurfs (Jokey, Smurfette, Brainy and Gutsy Smurf) using felt cloth, okay!

My Panda can see the world!

My Fat Panda didn't have eyes before....so I decided to give him eyes, after one year..haha.

I created Fat Panda's eyes using felt cloth.

I didn't have white felt cloth, so I was using blue one instead.

Sew them on!!! Yeay!!! He can see me now!!!

Scary huh???!!!

Hahaha...the inner eyes should be smaller. ~~Tak Jadi...Panda cacat~~ Never mind!

Arabian Wedding Dinner

25/11/2011

It's my mate's wedding. They had their solemnization ceremony just before last Ramadhan. This is their second dinner.....for the groom's side. She's gorgeous!!! Indeed!

She is walking in, with her husband...lovely path!

The ceremony was pleasantly organised....

I could feel the warmth and bless in everyone's face.

She looks stunning in this dress...

This is the doorgift....there's a small Arabian sweet cake inside.

The buffet....Arabian meals, steaks and more.

I wish you both happiness and blessings together!!!

This post is dedicated to Kak Syazana, Kak Honey and those who are getting married. I wish this information could admire you in certain ways for your upcoming wedding.... Love you all!

Effy's Engagement: Simple but memorable

Pinkish purple was the main theme....

I was told that Effy (my lovely sweet friend) made all the engagement gifts and the setting herself.

I simply love her handy-flowers. Oh, dear! Beautiful! The roses bouquet was surprisingly presented by her man on that wonderful day.

She's a heavenly pretty girl....the shot is nice too!

This shot is a piece of art!!

Her house itself is beautiful...they didn't have to go far to take photographs.

I wish you all happiness that will never fade....

I hope this can inspire you a bit in preparing your brightest day!

Real Cinderella

I'm surprised to see this picture (William and Kate's wedding)

Was it just coincidence or they simply planned for this???

Wedding of White and Peach

I was one of the committee members for the wedding (26/02/2011) at Dewan SIRIM Section 2, Shah Alam. I was doing my internship / practical training at that time. The bridegroom is a son to a very kind, soft-spoken yet humble man I've ever know, Allahyarham Dato' Yahya, the President of SIRIM BERHAD at that moment.

It was a pleasant view of white and peach. The decorations were magnificent too!
The use of fresh flowers was quite impressive as it made the ceremony alive!

Again, this post is dedicated to Kak Syazana, Kak Honey and those who are getting married. I wish this information could admire you in certain ways for your upcoming wedding.... Miss you both!

Goodies for guests...Female: Brooch; Male: Keychain

These are VIP goodies (Ferrero Rocher 3 pieces and a brooch/keychain)

My friend...in the middle of the hall, before the ceremony started.

This is the view of the hall

This is the dining table for the brides...on the stage. The cakes were simply amazing! They were not using 2-layer cake but using two cakes on two-layer tray instead...quite fascinating!

That's all for now! Bye....

More Fantasy

Fantasy is a genre of fiction that commonly uses magic and other supernatural phenomena as a primary element of plot, theme, or setting. Many works within the genre take place in imaginary worlds where magic is common. (Wikipedia)

A few days ago, my friends and I went to Plaza Masalam to have dinner. Alia, the best-friend of mine kindly put the dinner on her treat....Thank you, love! It was a pleasant dinner because Hasinah, Masitah and Ain were there too, for we could share stories and pains.

As usual, it is accustomed that I have to buy DVDs whenever I come here. I don't prefer downloading via internet because....hehehe. "Waiting is painful"...haha. I only watched fantasy movies. Real stories seem boring to me. In my opinion, we can always experience what they show in real movie but we impossibly encounter the moments in fantasy movie....like a magical world.

Harry Potter (Deathly Hallows)

I've watched it in cinema months ago, but still I bought it for a collection.

The Smurf

I haven't watched this one yet. They say it's great.... But I say they are adorable!

I think, I'm going to search for the smurfs plush at Uptown then...

The Nutcracker

I love this movie....wonderful fantasy but exciting! Everything seems so real!

Rango

I haven't watched this one yet. The movie came out with Yogi Bear...

I've watched Yogi Bear though, don't like it!

Hoho...to buy is always easy, but to watch makes me crazy...because I'm too busy!

Hahaha...will steal time to watch them anyway. Bye!

Kimchi (Malaysian style)

I tried to make Kimchi.... It is a traditional fermented Korean dish made of vegetables with the mix of seasonings. Chinese cabbages are usually used in making Kimchi. It can be consumed raw and is commonly added to soups or other Korean dishes.

STEPS / INGREDIENTS:

1) Half-cut a Chinese cabbage and break it into two
