Haven’t I?

I must have memory lost, didn’t I post here? OMG! I’ve been surfing and blog hopping probably just reading..did I? What have I done? Work? That is definitely, we’ve got target to meet you know?

Anyway, here are somethings that I wanted to share:

This is an altered wooden frame, the frame is from IKEA. I’ve covered it with patterned paper from Color Me Daisy September kit, then put some self-made felt flowers with brads and ribbons on top. The frame can actually be displayed horizontally and upright. Both ways, the flowers will still be on top.
As for this, I call it a vintage card, not sure if it fits in the category of vintage. It is still not done yet, I haven’t finished the inside of the cards. Will update here again.
TFL.

Recovery


Yes, I’ve made two new layout by using those photos that I’ve lost recently from a mistake that my office cleaning lady did, or maybe is my mistake that I leave them in the pizza box. And I love these more than the previous ones 😀

I use paper tearing technique for “Hold me” and use glittering embossing powder for “Family” on the title and the lace cardstock.

Did some cards too, these are inspired by Kristina’s Christmas card. I did some embossing on the first one but it doesn’t really show, so I go for plain stamping on the 2nd. the chipboard letter “M” and “C” actually embossed with red embossing powder.

Well, I still haven’t got my glad2bhere.net up and running yet.. but at least I know that it is on the way.

TFL.

Really what a day!

Wah.. I’m so sad now.. our office cleaning lady throw away my pizza box which contain two layout inside!! =((

Really sad, no words can describe it. My sons haven’t even look at those two layout yet, especially Cal, one of the page is for him! How could she just throw away my box without looking inside!!

I didn’t even shouted or scold her, ‘cos really, there is no point in doing so, she has tried her best to retrieve the box from the rubbish bin in the rain! The rubbish truck already taken away my love.. 😦

What a day for me, really. She throw it away yesterday! Yesterday was also the day that my site went dead.

Those paper, embellishment, buttons, ribbon, flowers! Oh.. I know I can get them back again, but it won’t be the same anymore. It was a creation, it was a process, it was something that involve feelings and thoughts. I’ll never get the same thing back again.

Still hoping

My Glad2bhere site is still down *sigh*
I’m still trying to get hold of the hostess in f.erocio.us, she just doesn’t seems to be online that often. I’ve already got confirmation from my new host that she is ok with hosting my site (Yippiee for that). Well, I’ll just have to keep checking my mail and hopefully Naddiya will check her message in facebook soon.

At the mean time, let me share with you one great news, especially to scarppers. Scrap-n-Crop will be having a special deal tomorrow in their online store, full details here and go check out their store, start building up your cart now so that you can just hit the checkout button tomorrow. I don’t know about you, but I’m doing it!

What a day

OMG!! My other domain is dead and only today that I realised it! The hostess has stop hosting domain, it is so scarry, there is no warning email either, I just found it dead today, just like that!So now I don’t have a blog site to write like my diary, but I’m in the middle of trying ways to revive it. Hopefully I still can get all my posts back again.

I was trying to get back some of my posting using Yahoo search too, fortunately they keep their archive and I did get some back. Finger crossed that I can move to a new host very soon.

At the mean time, let me shares some LO that I’ve done over the past few days.




I hope your day is not like mine.. I’m still anxious on what will happen to my Glad2bhere 😦

Want some freebies?

Yes? Go over to Pamela’s blog and join in the fun! It is her birthday and she is giving away some goodies, the one thing that she love to use in her layout, fabric paint!

I do have them, only 3 different colors, not so adventure in using them, I guess I’m not the patient person to wait for the paint to dry then carry on with my layout. Nevertheless, I would love to give it another try, probably need some guru to teach me the correct way in using them.

So, what are you waiting for, just go over to her blog now!

Wheels and tadpole



I’ve talked about the wheels here and the tadpole here.

The journalling part for these two layout also got it from the posting that I did earlier. That’s the good thing of having a blog, so I can keep track of things and use it back in my layout later.

I’ve been keeping this Rhonna Farrer’s pattern paper (the one with stars and circles), not sure where and how to use it, till this challenge came upon and the look of the circles represents wheels, don’t they? And stars? they are just nice for boy’s page. Oh ya.. I got those just the edge cardstock just this week, am loving it already.

As for the Tadpole layout, I wanted to make those water bubbles that the tadpole created when they are in the pond, I wanted to try paint actually, but I’ve got limited color, infact, I only have white! So I ended up sewing those circles in my layout. I did the sewing part while little Cal is doing his homework.

Things I used: Wheels – PP from Rhonna Farrer, American Craft, Creative Memories; cardstock from Bazzill Basic; chipboard from Maya Road, letter stickers and ribbon from American Craft.

Tadpole: PP from Creative Imaginations, Bazzill asic; letter stickers from American craft; chipboard from Maya Road.

Gosh!

I can’t believe it, in these two days, I received 2 issues of Scrapbook Trends magazines from Coconut Scrapbook, a stamp set from Making Mamories, a thank you card and a gift coupon of USD5 from Color Me Daisy and my orders of scrapbook stuff from Scrap-n-Crop! I’m just overwhelm!

I know I’m going to have fun doing all those scrapbooking pages and challenges with these things that I have. Inspiration from the magazines, new ideas that I can do with my materials and papers. It’s gonna be fun!
