LetsScrap.ning

I absolutely love this website (check out blinkie on the right)!!! I have made so many new friends and the gals on this website are most encouraging!!! They leave comments that keep you motivated and going and I am so thankful to have found them!!!

Here's a LO that i did based on one of their sketches!! TFL


Well so much for the store bought embellies.....Although I love them and have spent loads of money on this...(much to my husband's disgust)!!! I still like cutting out patterned paper and designing my own borders and stuff like that......



And here's a closer look at the cut out patterned paper which i embellished with crystals and Stickles. One of the best things about living in Singapore is that you can buy crystals relatively cheaply in bulk at Arab Street. The varieties will blow your mind!!!

For this Halloween LO, again I dug into my stash of store bought embellies. The pumpkins i believe (though i could be mistaken) is from Making Memories. I just loved the pumpkins.

Been a while...

I know its been a while since the last post. My lil boy has not been well, in fact he was not in school for about a week with a tonsil infection. That was so not cool. Well he is much better now and thankfully I got to scrap too, in between his naps and late into the night when he was asleep.

I have not been shopping much at the stores lately. Decided that it was high time i used the mounds of paper and embellies that i have at home. I am such a hoarder!!!! So i decided to use some store bought embellies to create a couple of pages.


This little border was hand stamped with Hero Arts long border birthday celebration stamps!! I colored each individual cupcake and then used Glossy Accent to give it a nice finish. I then added some crystal to give the border some dimension.

Finally having the courage...

For a long time, I have been one of these silent scrappers. I finally decided to go ahead and answer the DT calls. After talking to a good friend, (she is a wonderful source of inspiration) I decided to take the plunge. I have thoroughly enjoyed myself the past few days working on the LOs. The comments that I received on my LOs also have been a source of inspiration. To the members of the Made With Love Community Board who commented on the LOs, a really BIG THANK YOU for encouragement.




Although I am on long leave now, and yes I do miss my job, I am looking forward to seeing how far scrapbooking will take me, whether now or in the future.




Here are the LOs that I completed today......

Ok, I know I have been posting a lot today. I have been scrappin quite a bit so that I can get the designs in on time for the DT call. But I did have time to make a batch of Cranberry Muffins. Very yummy.....

Well I finally got some new layouts going. I am gonna put these up for the DT calls. Made With Love is having one and so is Cocoa Daisy. I am kinda excited but rather nervous cos I have never done this before. I honestly don't think that I am that good. But then again hey....you never know, someone out there may actually like my designs!!! :-)
