Have almost done the gift wrapping for the kids. Am bringing some over with me to China. Will only let them open on Christmas day. Can’t wait to see their faces. I’ve done a few tags to put on the gifts and also some more Christmas cards.
Christmas project
Am joining the fun of making the 25 days till Christmas book together with Ali Edwards. This is the first time I’m making this book, so there are times that I don’t know what to record and what photo to take. So there are still some days that I don’t have the right photo to show. I’m trying my best to live “at the moment”, so maybe I’ll just take anything that came along. I’ve even took the photo of those clothes that I’ve folded! *crazy*
I’m using a lot of my stamps and I’ve just got my first StazOn ink pad which I’m going to use on those shinny surface and overlay. Here are a few pages that I’ve done:
Christmas card with snowman
This is for Sunday Scrappin’ – using snow, even if it is a snowman.
For this card, I’ve used Color Me Daisy kit, the tag is from Grace Tolman.
I’ve actually made two similar cards, the other one was set on cream card stock and I’ve given it away! *smile*

Joyful Greetings
Did two cards with the same sentiment “Joyful Greetings”. Top one using Scenic Route, Pink Paisley and American Craft pattern papers. 2nd one also using Scenic Route and American Craft pattern papers. I pop both the tags up with foam adhesive, so sad to learn that Scrap-n-crop run out of the adhesive *sigh*.
I would proabaly have more Christmas card to make, will see how.
Be cool and Dirt pond
Did these two layout over the weekend. One is simply playing with my circle punch and new date stamp from Imaginisce, the other is for a sketch challenge over in SoCalScrap.
Dirt pond: I’ve used Scenic Route journal die-cut and Metropolis pattern paper. Date stamp from Imaginisce. Letter stickers from American Craft.
Journal: There are things that I don’t let you do such as this, but seeing that you were having such fun, all I need to do was to shower you afterwards.
Be cool: I’ve used Pink Paislee pattern paper and journal die-cut, and Scenic Route Metropolis pattern paper for the stripe and also journal die-cut. Maya Road chipboard letters and bits of things from Coconut Scrapshop kit and Color Me Daisy kit.
These two photos were actually being taken by my boys themselves!
Sale
Yup, I’ve lower down the cards prices in my etsy shop. I saw that there are viewers but no buyer, so I’m trying out to give a lower price and see what will happen. So, do check out my etsy store.
Have fun!
More Christmas cards
There were all being given away too *grin*. The patter paper are from Easy Scrapbooking Calender, plus those tags from Grace, stamp from imaginisce and scallop edge card stock from Bazzill Basic.
As for the one below is for the card challenge over in Color Me Daisy: to make mini card of 3×3″ with some kind of rik rac. I’m using the just edge from Bazzill Basic

Sad news
A really sad news that I’ve just get to find out from Pamela that Coconut Scrapshop is going to discontinue their monthly kit though the shop is still open.
I’ve been enjoying their kit ever since the first one that I got, and I’ve been checking in ever so often in their forum for new challenges and new idea from the gallery. They have a very creative group of Designer, I just love going into the forum and be there getting to know them.
I guess there must be a very difficult decision to make for Jen, the owner. I wish her all the best.
I’ve actually done 10 posts with Coconut Scrapkit as label.
Those tags turn out to be…
These cards are made using those tags that I got from Grace (thanks Grace!) for the gratitude challenge, the pattern paper are from HOTP, I’ve used some lace card stock and ribbon too.
These cards has all been taken, I meant all being sent or delivered *wink*.
I still have some more to make though and seems like those names in my list is getting more each day *LOL*.
Christmas cards
Have got myself busy again after seeing all those beautiful cards in Color Me Daisy which being showcased for the Scenic Road’s Christmas kit. So I’ve lifted them and have send out two this morning!
American Craft also showing their beautiful cards here.
Now, I wanted to make more and hopefully in time to sent them out before I leave to China.
