old layout

2010-08-07T14:26:00.005+08:00

This is a long overdue layout which i made early this year during one of scrappers at sg scrapmeet (i already forgot when was it :p). I wasn't able to put the title until today.. so lazy me :p.

This was my daughter's first day of school. It was only last year when she started school as a nursery student. She was very excited to go to school maybe because she's wearing a new dress (a.k.a. uniform hehe), new shoes and new bag =). Even when she went to school alone in school bus, she didn't cry. Daddy and Mommy were very proud of you!

2nd challenge

2010-08-07T01:01:00.004+08:00

it was really a "challenge" but it was fun to do especially when we are all on ym :p

first movie

2009-01-04T19:02:00.001+08:00

This is my entry to Mami S Scrap a Month 2008 challenge at Scrapbook Challenges.

This is the very first time my daughter went inside a movie theater. She's afraid of the dark and loud sound that's why it took so long for her to watch a movie.

Inside the movie house, she was covering her ears, then when she saw children smaller than her go inside the theater she slowly removed her hands from her ears and became comfortable. She was able to watch and enjoy the movie :).

Drop by here and join the fun :)

Happy New Year!

Christmas in November

2008-12-03T11:58:00.000+08:00

Last Saturday, 29 Nov, we had our annual Scrappers at SG Christmas party and as expected we all had a grand time. We all let our hairs down and were like kids again, shrieking with delight while playing the party games. There was no dull moment.

Kudos to the organizers of the party, Marix, Sookie, and Abby! And like every children’s party there is a giveaway given, we were given our very own aprons! The very pretty aprons are made by our very own talented scrapmates Marix, Abby and Ces together with the help of Ces’ mother. Thank you ladies!!

Some photos of the gang (grabbed from Ces' blog) to share with our aprons. :)

Prior to the party we have our monitor/monita challenge where we will create a layout for our baby. Below are the LO’s I created for my baby Bheng.

Challenge#1
Something round and something clear
So sorry that deadline is near...
Then, add something hard,
Definitely not lard.

Challenge#2
something long

something small

that's not all

but you'll never go wrong

then, add something softto finish it off

This is what I received from my mommy CJ. Thank you mommy, really really love these beautiful layouts!

And in return I need to create a layout for my mommy CJ which is still in progress, I’ll post it as soon as I’ve completed it *wink wink*.

We also helped out Marix on her project of creating albums for the SCKC. We managed to create 100 6x6 pages! Hurray!!! Please visit here to know more about the details on how you can help. Also Marix is giving out a RAK to promote this undertaking, just drop by her blog for the details.

Thanks for dropping by. Have a nice week!

Family Layout

2008-10-31T18:00:00.000+08:00

This is the only layout i managed to do for this week. Picture was taken at a sticker photo booth (not sure what it's called) at the arcade of Great World City. The quality of the picture was good considering that it is only 5sgd :p. But the picture i've used in this layout is already a scanned copy.

This is my entry at Scrappers at SG, Scrappin Kids, Scrapbook Challenges Clear Challenge.
Talk about hitting 3 birds with 1 stone.. LOL :)

Used this pagemap for this layout

I just finish my entry for Scrapbook Challenges Sketch# 111.

It took me quite a while to finish this layout, it's my first time to stamp on accetate, it took me quite a few times to stamp on the accetate as i don't get the full letters of the image. Then cut the stamp images into circles using the circle cutter (i don't have those big punches..) but the circle cutter made a good job ;). Then cut the red cardstock again. Then put on some stickles on the stamped images.

And here's the finish product.

Thanks for looking :).

I can't believe it

2008-10-07T11:18:00.000+08:00

the "Forever" lo, which is my entry to Sookie's "Write" Stuff challenge was chosen at Scrapbook Challenges as Pamela’s Pick of the week!!! Wow! I’m so ecstatic that my work was recognized.

Thank you Pamela!

It's World Card Making Day

2008-10-05T12:55:00.000+08:00

so why not make a card.. this is also my entry to Scrapstars music inspiration card challenge.

Decided to use the title "A Very Special Love" (by Maureen McGovern and revived by Sarah Geronimo) after watching a local movie with the same title "A Very Special Love" ;).

Forever

2008-10-04T10:38:00.000+08:00

Finally i was able to create a wedding page for my sister, thanks to Sookie's "Write" Stuff challenge at Scrapbook Challenges.

I really liked the outcome even though it looks "kinda" crowded. I love the jenni B metal butterfly which i chanced upon Spotlight. I added diamond stickles to give it a little sparkle.

By the way this is only an 8x8 page, coz I'm planning to frame this and give this to my sister.. hopefully she'll like it. :)

This is entitled Forever coz there's a "Forever" word on the paper, can you see it? I think not.. hehehe it cannot be seen anymore with all the swirls and florwers going around the LO.. hahaha.. but i still like it ;).

Update:

Went to Ikea after lunch to buy the frame and here's the framed layout ;)

Thanks for looking :).

what's up...

Thanks to You
Thanks to You For teaching me how to feel
Showing me my emotions Letting me know what's real
From what is not
What I've got is more that I'd ever hoped for
And a lot of what I hope for is
Thanks to you

For challenge#13, what stick to my mind was that the challenge was to use a song title as the title of the layout. So i thought of honoring my parents for the layout. That's why i chose the song "Thanks to You" by Tyler Collins.

But when i check the rules of the challenge again it was not only a song title but a "love" song title. But i think it's still appropriate, the song can still be a love song for my parents ;) hehehe

Thanks for looking :)

Christmas Scrapmeet Party

2007-12-21T15:05:00.000+08:00

We had our Christmas Scrapmeet last Dec 15 and it was such an awesome party, very memorable indeed!

We shared these sumptuous food which each of the scrapmates brought.

We played games like the 12 days of Christmas, Bring Me, Trip to Jerusalem, Pass the Parcel, grab a gift (which was our exchange gift) and pabitin!. There were lots of laughter and we shriek like kids. It was so much fun because the scrapmates are all into it.

In between the laughters and screams Benga had managed to teach us how to make this Christmas ornament which is very cool.

Thanks Marix for sharing, you are really very creative.

And our mareng Cute#1 who is also a very talented and creative woman created these. Awesome right?

(grabbed from Benga's blog)

A very big Thank you to the organizers!
