Long pause

How many days has past? Hmm.. I have had a tiring trip, not one but two. I went to Malacca and Kuala Lumpur from Monday till Wednesday, then to Kudat and Banggi Island from Thursday till today. First one is 100% learning trip, as for the 2nd, it is more like a community service trip after our meeting in Kudat. Will share more in my other site – Glad2bhere.

As for now, I wanted so much to share what I’ve done before going for the Malacca trip and on Wednesday night, but I forgot my camera’s USB cable. I’ve actually took some time to visit Valerie over in Scrap-n-crop, got myself some scrapbook stuff from her store. So glad to have finally met her face to face! Thanks for her sister Penny, I get to browse the shop earlier before Val arrived from work.

There were just too many beautiful things in there, I have to remind myself not to get any pattern paper, I’ll just have to wait for my monthly kit from Color Me Daisy and Scrapbook Deals 4 you. Still I’ve got some “essential” things like glue dot, chalk marker and stamp set.

While we were over in Kuala Lumpur, I didn’t do much shopping. There were still some sales going on, lots of Girls’ clothing, boys’ clothing and for adults too. But I wasn’t into getting any clothes for now, so I’ve just got myself some undies. Will do the shopping during my next trip to China if possible.

Signing off now, will update again next week.

Kristina’s Color Inspiration #45

This colors are monochromatic, however one of my pictures came out not quite showing the dark black in the pattern paper that I’m using, probably due to the florescence light in my office. Anyway, this is what I came up with from the color inspiration over at Kristina’s blog:



Using the idea of inchies again, which is easy to put together with scraps. I’m using Tinkering Ink’s PP, Prima grey flower, Making Memories black brads and ribbon from HOTP.

Thanks for stopping by.

Time flies

Ya.. didn’t realise I haven’t been updating my blog and posting the photos for project 365 these past few days. I’ve been busy catching up with work. There was just too many meetings to attend, problem to be solved and preparation to be done for next week. I might not be able to update my sites next week as I’ll be going away for 2 trips. So another thing is I won’t be able to join in the fun of challenges too. *sigh*.

But at the mean time, here are two things to share – a card and an LO done for online challenges. Good way to get me going in using all those scrap that I normally won’t think of using.

The card below is made for Mother’s day, an early one with brads that I’ve almost forgotten.As for this layout below, it is talking about my two boys on how they have enjoyed the ABC that they’ve tried the first time over in Tun Fuad Park.

Both projects have used stuff from Color Me Daisy Kits. Papers from Basic Grey, Pink Paislee and Making Memories journal booklet.

Thanks for stopping by.

LO


Did these two for some challenges online. Did the first one with a sketch and 2nd one with matching up some papers I have.

Kristina color challenge #44

When I first saw Kristina’s color challenge, I thought to myself this would be easy for me to do. But then it has taken me quite sometime to really put this card together, ‘cos I’m not sure which color to use as the primary color, so I end up using most white.

Product used: Making Memories paperpad, Basic Grey Bittersweet PP, Prima flower, Bazzill Basic just edge cardstock.

Project 365

Day 63
March 4th: Went to have a self portrait taken in City Mall, just to keep them for memory and for a layout about myself. (note: layout in the previous posting)

Day 61 – Day 62

[no photo]

March 2nd – 3th: Been busy running some errant for Fui and myself. Ever once that left the car key in the car that I’m using, so Fui can’t fetch Cal from school. I had to go home all the way from work to fetch Cal and have lunch at in-laws’ place. Went back to mom’s place on 4th.

Day 60

March 1st: Went to Gaya Street after church and blood test in the morning. The boys are super excited about all those small creatures that they saw there.

Goodness, I’ve not been keeping track for this project, I think I’ve missed out more days that before without photo!

Did 2 in a night!

Yup, I’ve done two layout in a night’s time! I’ve impressed myself even. I think it is because I’ve the right photos and the right sketches for them, plus I have the right kit with me! Super duper happy for that.
First one I did is about me as a scrappin’ chick. So far I’ve only got 3 pages about me, not really a favorite subject to scrap about. But I have had fun with this page especially with the pretty pattern paper from Basic Grey Bittersweet collection which are included in the February kit of Color Me Daisy.

Another one here is a page to showcase those family photos that we’ve taken during the recent Chinese New Year – Love you. Another page using stuff from Color Me Daisy February kit.

Sketches are from Creative Scrapper forum. I’ve used Basic Grey Bittersweet PP, My mind’s eye journal tag, American craft stickers, Hambly Screen Print rubon, Fancy Pants overlay.

LO and Project 365

I found this precious photo of my late grandpa after Cal took some photos out from the unusual place in the living room. This was taken by my uncle who share the age age with me! And yet he is my uncle *LOL*. I’ve used ColorMeDaisy February kit for this layout together with the spiral journal book from Making Memories. Will need to put in the journaling later.

Day 58

Feb 27: Day Hubby came back this evening. we went to have dinner in Grace Point. Mer wasn’t so excited about daddy’s present.

Day 59

Feb 28th: Went to Sutera Harbor to Meet Mr. Yap concerning our membership. Had finally decided to get one for the whole family. The boys love it over there especially the Kiddies Club and the pool. Definitely going to make full use of the membership and go back there often.

Feb 26/27: Tonight Mer slept with big yi-yi for the first time after he said he prefer yi-yi over mommy ‘cos mommy spank him (:p). So he did, but till just past mid-night, he went back to sleep with me half awake. *LOL*

Day 56Feb 25: This is how my sweet little looks like in the car on our way home. I find that he is always being sweet in the car when he is having a good mood, especially this one after he was given a lollipop on his request.
