Well, If you win, do let me know. I’m not really looking to get a free class here as I’m staying almost 3 hours away by plan from the event, so I’ve dropped the idea.
Wish you all luck!!
Did a page following the sketch over in Page Maps. Another layout using Color Me Daisy March kit plus some Prima essentials 5 flowers and one pattern paper from HOTP from those old kits.
These were us during those days before I got married to hubby (then boyfriend). Amazingly all of us still keep in touch now a days and most probably thanks to the Internet. I’ve hide my journal behind the main photo using journal tag enhanced on white cardstock, completed with a spiral clip.
I feel like putting more embellishment on the page, but couldn’t think of any other.
Did a layout using Pamela Sketch 137 about my boys having fun in the Kiddies Club of Sutera Horbor last month. Thanks Pamela! Thanks to Color Me Daisy for their March kit too, that I’m able to put together this page pretty fast.
It was fun seeing them concentrate in painting. They were excited about it and so proud of their work.
Am using Color Me Daisy March kit which contain Glitz sparrow patter paper, American Craft stickers, Making Memories clip, plus my own Kaiser rhinestone and Bazzill Basic just edge cardstock.
Yupe, I’ve got these two to play with since I got them back from my sister. They are suppose to be gift for her to start her scrapbook, but she never get started and probably won’t ever, so she suggested me to bring them back and make good use of them. Yippie!!
I’ve got the January and March 2007 kits of Paperwishes Personal Shopper. Personal Shopper is actually the first kit club that I joined. I’ve learnt a lot from their kits especially when there is a VCD coming together on an alternate month which showing all the techniques to build pages. Each month they have included a bulletin which show how to make beautiful pages, extra tags and cards from their kits.
Here is the January 2007 kit (photos taken from Paperwishes website)
This is the March 2007 kit.
Not sure what I’ll use them for yet, most probably cards.
I’ve got another kit came in today since I only get to work today. March kit for Scrapbook Deals 4 U – Jilli Bean Soup. Double Yay from me!!
photo taken from SD4u.
What a happy Monday for me.
2nd April: Went to have Mongolian dinner, my first try. Love the BBQ and roast lamb plus the lamb shank soup! But the boys didn’t eat a thing except some soup for Cal.
1st April: April fool day but thank God I didn’t get fool at all. We went to a badminton game with hubby’s colleagues and I got to play too! It was fun! The boys also loves it thought they never get the chance to really playing it on the court. They were still with the bat after they got home.
March 31st: Been a few days now and the boys still play with each other, teasing and chasing after each other, though there are still times that they fight or refuse to sleep with each other over afternoon nap.
Goodness, I’ve been way behind my project 365 posting. I’m suppose to post up the article once everyday, or at least once a week, but look what I’ve now, stopped from day 65 (March 8th) till 88 (yesterday)!! Let me just rewind back my memory.
I’m actually thinking if I should move all these postings about project 365 to another blog…
Day 89
March 30th (Monday): 2nd day here over in Shenzhen. Not really a good night for all of us. Trying to write off this from my memory.
March 29th (Sunday): The boys always wanted to push the lift buttons. Here they were being so loving together while waiting for the lift.
March 28th (Saturday): On the bus in Shenzhen airport after landing. Pretty tiring flight with these boys, they were ever so active and noisy. Went out for dinner that night as a family. I wasn’t pretty excited about the trip. Maybe would feel different if I were alone. But then what is a family trip without the boys?
March 27th (Friday): Last day at school before going to China. Mer took the time to do some drawing before getting on the car to school.
March 26th (Thursday): Breakfast with bunny. Cal took out the “mee sedap” and wanted it for breakfast.
Day 84
[no picture]
March 25th
March 24th (Tuesday): Mer already starting to have homework from school. He is a perfectionist. He wanted his words to be written perfectly on the dot. He got frustrated if he doesn’t.
Day 82
[no picture]
March 23rd (Monday)
March 22nd (Sunday): Went to bed late after doing some a scrapbook page. Feel a bit left out if I didn’t create for the day. It is actually my escape, how I whine down, how I just sit and really be with myself, how I think back on the day or those incidence that had happened, how I wanted to preserve my memories. I just love to be able to create.
March 19th-21st (Thursday – Saturday): Kudat and Banggi trip. Went to Kudat to have our MBJ meeting, stayed in Marina resort and went to Banggi the next day by Ferry. Got a chance to experience the local karaoke session and the enjoyed the sea breeze. Hot and humid place. Saw the water snake going and coming back from the sea. Were in the same car with JK and Wong. Another good chance to get to know my colleagues.
March 18th (Wednesday): Back to KK on the 2pm’s flight from KLIA. Got ourselves a treat from MAS airline as we were being served Haagen-Dazs and Ferrero Rocher free! We were in a bigger plane too.
Mary 16th (Monday): Off to Malacca for a learning trip together with Mary, Yapp, Sebastian and Chong. Went a day earlier, so we got time to go around some historical sites of Malacca. Stayed in Renaissance Melaka. Actually the best time to get to know my colleagues.
March 17th (Tuesday): Went to our study tour in Melaka State Library. After doing that we went up to Kuala Lumpur but drop by at Valerie’s shop in Kajang and got myself some scrapbook stuff. Stayed in Royal Bintang that night.
March 15th (Sunday): Went to church and dropped off in City Mall. The boys had some fun on the amusement shop. As for myself, I went back to get the book “Confession of a shopaholic”.
March 14th (Saturday): Went to the gym in Sutera again while the boys do some coloring and running in the Kiddies Club. They are pretty easy to make new friends.
March 13(Friday): Went to stay a night in Rebecca’s place as both of them were outstation leaving the kids with the maid. Me and the boys went over just to accompanied the kids and let them had some time together.
Day 71
March 12th (Thursday)
March 11th Wednesday: Managed to snap some photos of Cal going on to his school. Was actually there ‘cos he brought a book to school that the teacher had confiscated. My boys is growing so fast!
March 10th (Tuesday): This photo actually belongs to yesterday when Rebecca and family were over to mom’s place. Here, Cal looking on Chiam while she did a bit of coloring / tracing. Cal loves to draw actually. While Mer and Rody were on the bike.
March 9th (Monday): It is a holiday today, I managed to have some time over in Sutera using the gym while the boys had a go with painting pottery in the Kiddies Club. Well, they didn’t do that while I was over in the gym, rather they wait till I’m with them then only they started off with the painting. Will sure do that again, but maybe change to just coloring.
March 8th (Sun): Like always the boys get to play with their cousins.
This was done last night and the night before using bits and pieces from here and there.
I might not be able to get online for a week here, will be away to China tomorrow. Will see how.
Thanks for dropping by.
Here, a double page loaded with 13 photos. The photos’ size are just a little bit smaller than 3R. So Dena, here is for you *wink*.
Have used Making Memories journal pad, Kaiser roller stamp, feathers, flowers and buttons from Color Me Daisy March kit.
Sorry for the glare and maybe a bit gloomy photos which by the way taken inside my office.
Did the layout above on Sunday night, just had to use those stuff that I got from Scrap-n-Crop recently. Aren’t you just love those essential 5 flowers? I love them! And Val, I’ve used those swirls stamps! *Grin* Oh.. and the MM journal pack, they are just so easy to use.
This is another layout done with Color Me Daisy February monthly kit. The only thing not from the kit is the journal paper from MM. Uh.. and I did a bit of sewing on these two layout in the middle of the night!
I was actually thinking to use the song title “I love your smile” on my 2nd layout…
Buoy I’m so glad I’m home.
