Mr Omuraisu Plushie

Let me introduce you to my first sewing project and plushie character - Mr Omuraisu!! You might remember seeing him in paper form in my 'Paper Peko and friends' post. A little character I created inspired by the Japanese food Omurice - a omelette filled with rice and meat and decorated with cute ketchup faces served with lettuce! I always envisioned him in plushie form so I just had to make him my first sewing project!

Easter Treat Gift Bag Making

Sunday, April 22, 2012 14 Comments A+ a-

I enjoyed making treat gift bags for family and friends during the Easter break. Hope you all enjoy these little snaps. Using pretty papers, J-book digital pix and magazine cut-outs I made collage bunny themed gift tags. The multi coloured pom poms were also handmade. I also had fun experimenting with some new mt tapes making some paper ribbon gift bag ties.

It felt like I was back in Japan today! I went shopping at Chatswood (a town in NSW, Australia) which is just like a mini Tokyo. They have many Asian supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries (Breadtop and 85%) and a Mother crepes store (like theone in Ikebukuro, Tokyo) and Yen store Daiso! Eeep!

It was announced last week that Instagram had been released for Android phone users! Yay! I downloaded it as soon as I heard and have been addicted to it ever since. I've been snapping away around the house and recording my Easter adventures.
You can find me on Instagram at 'JennaTempleton'. I would love to know who else is on Instagram, so feel free to leave your user names in the comments.
Happy Easter and look forward to seeing your Happy Snaps!

Sia's best of album has been on high rotation in my crafting study this week. Even though I own her whole CD collection I couldn't go past getting her best of album as well, which includes new songs and remixes of past hits. I always enjoy her pop craft album cover and lyric book photo shoots. Be inspired by Sia's; felt typography, knitted bunny hats, sequin face art, mini pom pom lips, plastic toy hardware hats, patchwork peacock dress, pipe cleaner headpieces and her ambient and colourful, pop sounds.
