My hardest work so far got two, one is to get my eldest son to eat his dinner, another one is to get him finish his daily homework from school! It was a dred for him! And such a frustrating thing for me too!

So, in this layout I’m actually questioning if he did really that serious about his homework. Seeing here is him doing his homework full heartedly, without even looking at the camera when I snap his photo. But in actual fact, he was frustrated for not being able to write faster and neater, not being able to play with the brother in the Kiddies Club. I wish homework is a bliss for him.

I made this layout for the crop challenge over at Scrapbook Deals 4U, using all Studio Calico kit, except the doily and trim are from my stash. This is a lift from Jenn’s layout:

Thanks for passing by and happy weekend!!

This layout I did is one of the layout done during the crop in Scrapbook Deals 4U. The challenge is to use blue, yellow, distressing and flowers. So I’ve been using my doily again, which I have misted with blue mist.
Yup, another boy’s page with flowers, this time even the background PP also has flowers! What more with those Prima flowers! LOL! Oh, I do love that birdie! Everything here is from Scrapbook Deals 4U kit – April shower, well, except the doily.
The boys were in their art class, seriously having some art work done! Just look at them, so occupied! LOL!
Happy Thursday you all! I’m glad that tomorrow will be Friday!! Yippie!! Weekend!!
Will show another layout on Friday.

Boys will be boys

Here is another layout that get done during the Scrapbook Deals 4U crop recently:

The challenge is to use blue and yellow, rubons and someone else’s words.
In the photos were my boys busy with their own puzzles. Once again, those puzzles are kept inside the toys’ box now *sigh*. I wish their toys can sustained longer. Those PP are from Studio Calico kit and those rubons are from Scrapbook Deals 4U Urban kit.

Am using a sketch from Creating Keepsakes.

Here is a layout that is done based on Kristine D’s sketch in Scrapbook Deals 4U:

Am using everything from the April’s kit – April shower from Scrapbook Deals 4U. Yes, I don’t care, I used the PP with flowers for my boys’ page. Who set the rules anyway? If the boys don’t like it, oh well.. they are most probably complaint about it when they are bigger, when those pages are already done! LOL!

Happy Tuesday!

From the crop

I told you I’ve done 5 layouts during the recent crop in Scrapbook Deals 4U right? Yup, here is the first one that I’ve done:

The challenge is to use green to represent the great outdoor. I’m using all Basic Grey Origins again for this layout. The photo was taken awhile ago when my boys still crazy over Transformers. Now those two toys are being kept inside their toys’ box and have been forgotten. Well, maybe they’ll remember if there is some other kid come over to the house and play them, they sure will want to grab hold of them again.
I’m using a sketch from somewhere, if not mistaken, it should be from Creating Keepsakes.
Here, a close-up of the journal tag and clip:

I’m loving all those distressing look. Now I think I’m getting better with it by tearing off some of the edges from the paper and really inking them. That remind me to get more new ink as those ink are drying up now and I need some more adhesive, oh, and a new album! Gosh, so much to spend for now.
Product used: Basic Grey Origins line.

How was your National Scrapbook Day gone? Have you got yourself some goodies or have done several pages joining in the online crop?

Mine was fabulous! I’ve had so much fun and have got all 5 pages done! Yes!!
Will share about them later. As for now, I have this layout to share with you today:

This is for the challenge over at Scrap-a-little, that is to create a new layout using (90%) Basic Grey products.

Yes, in the photo is my boys with their grandpa, during their visit to a palm farm and seeing the palm for the first time. They don’t look that excited in the photo, but in actual fact, they were!

Everything in this layout are from Basic Grey Origins line, except those doilies. I’m loving those doilies from the baker shop and those stickle stickers from the same BG line is just so cute!

So, head on over to Scrap-a-little ning site and start creating layout using BG PP and products now. you have until May 31 to upload your layout to the ning site. One lucky winner will get this from Helen:

Have fun!

Product used: Basic Grey Origins line.

Yes, I do miss his chubby face when he was still little, he has lost all those baby fat now and in fact a bit too skinny to me. When I look at him, I just thought to myself, hey you grow so much and too fast! I wish I can still see your chubby face.
