Wall deco...

I made these using cardboard already pre cut to the circle shape. It's now sitting perfectly at the side wall in the children's room. very colorful, cheerful and bright wall deco.  Journaling is a little reminder....
Here it is...


These are not on a cardstock.. they are on the wall...
So thankful that the wall is white and love how these stands out.
Journaling reads :
LOVE BEYOND MEASURE
I will always try
my best to be a good mother
I may falter once
in a while, but rest
assured that my love for you is
Beyond Measure


One handsome boy
 This is made with a mixture of 7 Gypsies & Jillibean Soup
A very boy page...lol

Shy girl
 I used :
Jillibean Soup
Patterned Paper : Blossom Soup Half Pound Blossoms
Butterflies - Fresh Cilantro
Blossom Soup - Pea Pod parts
Prima - flower
 Photo quality is poor :( i don't quite like

You have a great day ahead

This is not perfect....
but at least I tried and  I like it a lot.. all thanks to Stacy Cohen ( a very familiar name in the scrapbooking industry, one very talented lady all the way from States) I was blog hopping just the other day and stopped by her blog and saw how beautifully she made those shoes. I immediately fell in love and downloaded the template. My first attempt was a major failure....lol
My subsequent attempt....
At  least these are not so bad....

Second attempt...



Third attempt ( i shorten the heels a little) 

Hey, trust me,  it's not that easy, especially the top part and the folding in. As you can see it's a bit jaggered here and there. Just need to do a few more and get the hang of it. But this is fun and I really enjoy doing this to the max. Thank you so much Stacy.. it's so nice of you to share the template.

And here's sharing with you some pages i did...

I love the wooden flourish so much and is using it again and again. I'm left with only one and will save it at least.. i think i may want to add some journaling later but for now my head is blank and can't think of anything to write yet...

Close up - 3D Butterflies....

 I told ya, i'm loving it...

Why so serious?
Yes.. why so serious indeed.... I had a hard time getting her to smile... 
 but than again, whether or not she smile.. i enjoy scrapping about her..
She is so sweet...
A 2 year old girl...

Well that's about it for today...
Hope your Tuesday is doing you fine...
Have a good day ahead
Thanks for coming

Altered art....
from a cereal box....



A little close up...



We all love cereal and my favorite is the Kellogg's Special K Strawberry cereal. With cold milk it's so so yummy. This time round, as usual I wanted to throw away the box but my dearest son said, "Mummy why you throw this away (pointing at the box), i'm sure you can do something with this." And so I thought, another garbage he's making me collect. After a few days, infact weeks, I suddenly remembered and thought hey, why not I play with the box and do something with it. This week he is at home with me, he encourage me and give me so much inspiration and that's how this box got done. He's such a sweetie :)
I did this with Saj in mind, I wanted her to have an inspirational or motivational corner somewhere in her classroom. She is the chairperson for her class, they were asked, more often than not, to do something for the class to motivate each other. I though this motivational quotes is just perfect. She will place this in a little corner in her classroom when school reopens on Monday. It will be replaced every two weeks or so. So every fortnightly I will do another altered art for them. It's suppose to be her work but Mummy is doing it...lol (her teacher knows that I'm into this, so it's no suprise). I feel that in one way or another I have to play my part and this will be my little contribution for the school.
Anyways, all thanks to Abhi my big baby boy....

Because i'm so inspired... here's another one, but this time it's on  a canvas...
I painted it with MM Arcylic paint..
This is the original look....


I seriously love her eyes..that look is so priceless...
If only she had smile a little for me
Girl oh Girl...


 I added a black cardstock just to enhance the look a little when taking this shot. 
I think it look better with black background..


Close up of the embellishment that I 've used....
I used Kaisecraft Wood flourish that I've been hoarding for the longest time.
Well that's so much on the scrapbooking news..

I did some baking again, this time it's chocolate muffins... 
and here's sharing with you..
Stop drooling..It's yummy i know..lol

 Added more hershey chocolate syrup and they just can't get enough..
Simply divine!

Thanks for coming
Have a lovely day ahead

Let's bake a cake....


It was early evening when both mother and daughter decided in a jiffy to bake a cake. Some ingredients were not enough so she went to the supermarket to get them. Soon after this is the lemon cake fresh from the oven...

And this is what they called icing on the cake....
Both of them and I myself can't wait  for a slice so here it is.......
After 10 mins... 1/4 gone....lol
There goes my Lemon Butter Cake....
Yummy....it's soft and moist and has a zest of lemon in it.. A little sour and sweet...

And to add to the craze..like as if this is not enough, we bake another cake..
This time its
Chocolate Cake..
Goodness Gracious Me..
This really look very sinful
I have not tasted it yet but i think this should be equally nice...
So that's what I 've been doing since 4 pm today.

Before that here's a little sneaky peaky....

Will be back tomorrow with few completed pages.....
Meanwhile leaving you with a photo of my grand niece.
She's so adorable..and oh so shy.......

Just love love love her eyelashes and her curly wurly hair...
Thanks for coming by
Have a great Wednesday evening all

Such a sweet suprised....
My wonderful adorable daughter bought this for me for my birthday. She came back from school on Friday evening and had these in her hand....


She said "Happy Birthday Mummy" gave me 10 stalks of roses, a hug and a slice of cake. She melted my heart. Such a sweet suprised. She is such a lovely girl, and I thank God zillion time for giving me such a wonderful daughter. Btw my b'day was yesterday but because she has to be away for camp from yesterday for 3 days, she gave me a small celebration in advance. What else can I ask for? She complete my life. Now that she is away at camp, I'm missing her so much. I have no chatting buddy...Sob..Sob...Anyways, Moi is not getting any younger...birthdays are there to remind us that we are getting a year wiser. Happy Birthday to myself..lol

My first publication......
Yes! I was extremely high over the moon when I received an email telling me that my card was chosen to be published in the Readers' Gallery in this magazine...

Australian Cardmaking Stamping and Papercraft
I submitted my card quite sometime ago and I am so happy that finally it got selected and it's here

 in the Readers' Gallery...
Thank you so much for selecting my card....
Sentiment on card read :
Love
has nothing to do 
with what you are
expecting to get.
Only with what
you are expecting
to give
which is everything

This has really got my mojo going and I did another set of cards...

This time I used....
Tim Holtz Dies (on the edge)
Tim Holtz Adage Tags
Cardstocks
Purple Onion Damask stamp
VersaMagic Chalk Ink (Aquatic Splash)
Prima Flowers
Others: lace, blings


Wish, Adore & Trust
I love these colors
and the stamping image is beautiful....


Can't really see the stamping from here but i really like it a lot.
Will be doing more of these in the next couple of days...
I've been having bad bad cough and the doctor is saying its sure sign of asthma. I was wheezing terribly and breathless at the same time. My chest is hurting so much because of the cough. I've never been "attacked" like this before. This is terrible. He wanted to give me the pump thinge but i refused. He gave me all sorts of tablets and trust me I was almost "half dead" after taking it. It was the most drowsiest drug on earth. I felt like I was moonwalking yesterday. My head was terribly heavy and I felt so lousy throughout. Oh God please take this away from me.... Yucks!!! Anyways, now I'm feeling a little better but still have that hangover of the medicines. 

Hope your Sunday is doing you fine.

Despite being sick (like duh...)... I managed to complete a page based on this sketch over at Liz Qualman's blog... You can click her page at my sidebar...



Here's Mine...


Thanks For Looking....

Take Care

Tags, tags and more tags.....


I can't get enough of Pink Paislee.  I'm so in love with the papers. I took me a while to finally used them. Love the results and believe me the Manila tags are of great use. I stamped and distressed, cut and paste and it's all paper and glue.
Thanks for coming
Hope your mid week is doing you fine
