Dec album (inside pages)

Here are the inside pages of my Dec Album. Section 1: We took a short vacation to Hong Kong. Here is the cover for that section. I found this canvas tag from my old old stash of MM papers. Of course, my little ms kwok had her ears pierced... a moment to record! She cried for a short while. That's her BFF comforting her. So cute girls! Then Christmas came... I made this tree from the papers and hang some tags on it. The girls receiving their presents.. what joy and excitement!

And we took time to make some family projects...

and my little ms kwok helping to clean the kitchen. Isnt she cute!

And 1 last section: I cover this with Hambly and insert in all the Christmas cards we received. Cool way to keep those cards.

And of course, they were more pages but just too many.. I picked some for this blog post.

I forgot to mention, this Dec 09 album is for my DT assignments for YSS.

And hop over cos this week is my turn for blog posts.

You can join in the sketch, and some contests which will win you some CHA Winter 2010 goodies.

More projects

Today I want to share a album I made from 'nothing'.... as in nothing pre-made. I bought a box of biscuits the other day and it came packaged in this cute corrugated board. I see a book cover immediately. Woohoo..... ! Sorry... I am just too lazy to crop away my big toe...... hahaha.... From the above, I transformed into this cute mini album. My Dec daily kinda of album....... after finishing this album then I realised our family did so many fun stuff together. My kids now love love this album cos there are such good memories of their 'holidays'...... Dec (in Singapore) is usually like a holiday period, kids are off from school..... Christmas... taking vacations.... etc. I made 4 sections inside (all Graphic 45 papers)......... and sew papers together and then I punch hole and tie them to the spine of the album. See it looks like this:

I sprayed 2 types of mists over the cover....

Will post some pages soon....... i counted.. there are 48 pages... hee..hee... 4 sections with some sheets and hamblys each. I like that they are different sizes so one pattern paper peeks into the next. Nice! I like!

And I am so thankful for all your birthday wishes. Thank you for every comment and wishes you made! God bless you

It's my day!!!!

Yay... it is my birthday today and I celebrated with the people I loved. I didn't want a cake.. just not a 'cake' person so i asked hubby for Royce Chocolate... the ultimate choco-aholic dream. The yummy Nama chocolate. It just melts in your mouth. But the kids want candles and sing the BD song... so we lit a little candle and put it on the box of the choco. LOL. See this gorgeous bouquet....... it's from my lovely girl friend. And this dream toy... wow.... a bunch of my beloved friends bought me this as a surprise.... they had to ask hubby as a spy... what shall we give her.... a personal photo printer... wow.. that's so generous of them!!! I love ya! haha.... so what did the hubby get me? Still on the way from USA....... hee..hee.. And my little darling girls..... she gave me a little bottle of colourful sand .... is she cute!!! I told her I will hang that in one of my mini albums....... so cute and tiny.... totally adorable. Show you next time. Thanks for dropping by. I am a very loved girl today!

Family Time

I made a house project last month. You can see the project here. And I made this album to put inside the house. I wanted to document the things we do as a family....... and really the daily stuff are important. Cover: Capture the times we prayed as a family. Sitting in a circle and holding hands. okok.. .my hands are missing cos I was taking the picture. hee..hee... The other side for journaling. eating together. I enjoy the times where we eat and chat up over what happened thru the day. A great way of connecting. The kids love to talk.... talk about their silly stuff.... well, it is important to listen to them.

We played Legos, build Thomas the train tracks... and of course do art work together.

Here they are painting Mommy's project... hahaha... the fence for the house project. cool, right!!! These 2 girls playing on their own... okok.. this is like the perfect setting... they usually fight after 30 mins .... LOL

JOurnaling about the home improvement projects we did.

In the home now, we have this DIY magnetic wall where we put our travel magnets. Love that it is family project together.

Using a quote from 7G stickers.

I added a vellum over the photo.

Our happy family.

ok.... this one is a little sentimental.... I decided to write them a letter......... maybe it is the sudden death of someone, which frighten me.... so i decide to pen my love and thoughts to them..... in case God calls me home suddenly.

I have added more pages here and there... but for now... hope you like these pages.

Using all Websters PAges papers, embellishments.

hear the excitement!!!!

Hello friends, are you excited for CHA? You can hear me scream, right. I am totally excited!!! But yet also the time of the year where I purge my stash........ horror of horrors.... so many papers and stuff left untouched. I am now desperately trying to use up everything... hahaha... impossible, right. For now, I am excited with Prima, Lily Bee "Lovely", Pink Paislee lines and definitely Maya Road. Did you see their sneaks... totally gorgeous-ness........ left me drooling... *ops*... I got to wipe my computer keyboard. LOL. And for my classes at MWL, stay tuned cos I am way too excited to tell you I have placed my orders for classes. And we are using new products.... i mean playing with new manufacturers....... I think it is time for change... time to create with new papers and see if we can apply the same "Magic' to them. haha.... Make a guess... lots and lots of butterflies, flowers..... cream, pinks and a little green/blue......... Yes.. yes.. my "Magical Wishes" classes will continue.... I cant tell you how crazy I am over the new stuff I have ordered.... Elvira and team will be heading to CHA soon ......... I can't wait for Feb to come. Now, here's my DT assignments for YSS. Hop over. Sale is still on! LO': AM routine This little girl loves to watch the world go by in the morning... perch herself on the table, overlooking the window. My first time playing with Crate Paper... I have to say, these colours grow on me. I am loving pinks, grey now. This LO is based on Alyssa sketch over at YSS blog. Heard of Shimmerz paints... I painted these chipboard alphas with these gorgeous shimmering paints. Love it LO: read map Have you seen a 3 yr old read a map with such intensity? She is really serious. First thing when we stepped into Disneyland... she ran and grab a map..... studied it for a while and yell out "I am going here'... see she leads the way!!! This LO is based on Lady Grace's sketch over at YSS blog. For mists, I have to say Maya Road just gives that intensity of coverage. Love love this gold colour.

2010 goals/resolutions... whatever you call it!!!

Using all Prima products... I told you I need to use my stash fast, right. haha My word for 2010 is "GROW"........ what's yours?

Keep growing: love the Prima felt stems... against the canvas screenprint.

I did some sewing here... love the mists on the canvas sheet.

Sew much more... yes... my goal is to sew more.... love this dress form.

PS....... guess what it means........ photoshop...... hahaha... time to learn some new skills.

the back of every page looks like this... enough space for journaling. I love love journaling!

Thanks for stopping by! Hop over to YSS for all these products.
