I'm under the weather...

and i hate it when this happened. I'm down with flu and has not been able to do much lately. My body is aching and all i want to do is sleep. I feel so bad i'm not able to scrap neither am i geared up. I don't usually fall sick especially with flu like this so easily. Maybe because of the start of school and my body need to get adjusted to the routine again. Oh well whatever it is, i hope to be up and about real soon and get that scrapping going....

I hope you have a great Friday and a great weekend ahead...
Thanks for Dropping
Leaving you with this flower i took sometime back at the Children's Garden

Welcome 2009

Hello everyone and here's wishing you a Very Happy and Healthy 2010. New year brings all the fresh calendars and new beginnings. Every year will have its own Good and Bad and i pray and hope that 2010 will be a good year in terms of health, wealth, family and friends for me. I have bid 2009 goodbye and will start my 2010 with all that i wish it could be. In terms of health, i wish to live more healthily and to be more cautious with my food intake. I need to seriously take care of my health, not only for myself but for my loved ones as well. Its said that money cannot buy health. So in other words, Let's Stay Healthy... I have already done what need to be done. I am done and over with my operation and I am now recovering and slowly gaining my strength back again. I was advised by my doctor not to exert myself but have to go slow and steady so as to recover gradually. I want to thank each and everyone who had shown me all the love care and concern while i was recuperating at home. Some of you went beyond my expectation and i truly appreciate that from the bottom of my heart. My DD Saj was a great help to me. She stood by me and help me in all ways she can. I am blessed to have a daughter like her. She cooked, cleaned the house, did the laundry, you name it, all she did. She was so helpful and so filial that she never took her eyes away from me. Thank you Saj, i am so proud of you and love you so much. Of course my DH and DS did their part as well and i'm so touched by them. So while recuperating, i was not able to do much scrapping, infact none at all for the past two weeks. However, before going for my op, i managed to complete a layout for

Ed's Sketch Got Stamp for Jan 2010..

This is my take....

I will once again try to be back in full force for scrapping, i miss it actually. Maybe once when the kids are back to school on Monday and i am able to get my ME time again, i sure will start a page and get the ball rolling again... Saj is so excited and can't wait to go back to school, infact all the uniforms are all ironed. School shoes and socks are all kept neatly by the side. New school bag are waiting to be carried. She even has a new hairdo, she is just so anxious... Basically everything is new for a new beginning. She is stepping into the next level and will soon be a teenager. I wish her all the best and success in everything she do.

That's all for now, i'm not able to sit on the puter for too long. I'm still recovering..remember.LOL

Thanks for coming by my humble blog
Hope you have a great beginning
Once again.... Happy New Year

Very Good Morning

and Happy Friday to all. Hope you have a fine start to your morning. 

I will be taking a two weeks break from here. No i'm not going for holidays (i wish i am), I will be going for an op and will have to admit myself in the hospital by noon today. This was a very difficult decision that i had to make and i would like to thank all of you who have given me the encouragement and support  to go for it and i really appreciate that. The stay will be about 3 days if not more. I hope to have a speedy recovery and would appreciate if you could keep me in your prayers. 
Since i won't be able to blog for the next week or so, 
I am leaving you with this cute Tatty Bear wishing you....

May each day of your Christmas be filled with peace and
may God's love light your way
through the New Year
Merry Christmas to all

With Love

I simply love this....

Thanks Julie your sketches have always been wonderful..

For 52 sketches 52 weeks
Sketch #50

And this is my take...
Unfortunately, 52 sketches are left with only 2 more sketches to reach 52 weeks and that marks the end of 2009. I have truly enjoyed all of Julie's sketches and doing it has been wonderful so far...
Anyways, how have you been doing? I met up with a lovely lady just the other day over at our LSS (MWL) whom i have been wanting to meet. She is so talented and i've always admired her work. Her page is always very lovely and always so stunning.  Even though we never chat for so long, it was nice to meet someone who has the same passion as you. Thank you P for your time. I really appreciate that. I have not been blogging for quite awhile and I'm sure for those of you who has been following my blog will notice that. No reason actually, just thought that i should be finishing up with all my undone page, getting my things organised especially my stash that is "screaming" at me to clean them up. Clearing up my wardrobe and spending all my time with my kids.. So with all these taking up almost all my time, i hope to complete at least another page or two before closing 2009.

Talking about 2009, its almost coming to an end.. Let me ponder for awhile what 2009 has brought me before i post my next entry. As of now maybe the beginning of 2009 has been a smooth sailing in every aspect of my life not until when an unexpected "tsunami" came storming at my direction the last few months. Anyways, i believe, in life everything cannot be so smooth all the time, there need to be some rocky patches here and there to spice up your life a little.
Goodnight everyone...
Thanks For Coming
See you soon....

A Weaving Basket

Hi everyone, how have your days been so far? Hope everything is going on well and you are in the pink of health. I did a weaving basket of flowers and i really enjoyed doing it.....


 My Mini Farm
 
My Pinky elephant and my Sweety Cow
Aren't they cute?
Just in case you are wondering these are cards....

Here's announcing a new kid on the block...
Another place to shop.....

OUR CRAFT PLACE
@ Siglap Centre

Our Craft Place is having 20% discount on all items till end of December. Do drop by and visit the store. There are so many things to see and so many more to add to our stash.  A very cozy and a very pretty shop. I was truly appreciative and overwhelmed when J approached me and offer me to teach craft classes here in OCP. I am so thankful to her and  i am proud to say that i am the Designer for OCP and will soon be helping her here. What can i say, anything to do with papers and scrapbooking related, i'm all in for it. Thanks J for believing in me. 

This is not scrapbooking related but since i'm posting so why not... 
Sometimes i wonder why we do what we do and why is it so difficult to make a decision in life. I am stuck into making a decision about myself. I am given two choices to make and i have to decide between these two as to which is best for me. It is difficult and i have to make my choice quick and fast. I can't convinced myself and that is making it more difficult. I hope and pray that God will guide me through. I will get an answer soon......but for now i'm still pondering.
So have you ever get stuck in a situation like that? I believe all we need to do is Pray because God Listen.

Back to scrapbooking... i have not been doing a page because i am mojoless. I am trying to do another mini album and have been doing many Christmas cards, so a page layout have to be a little on hold. Will definitely find my mojo back again..
In the meantime, stay healthy and happy always.

Thanks For Coming By

Goodbye November, Hello December....

Today is first day of December and of all you know, Christmas will be here in no time and we will all celebrate New Year again with all the good wishes for 2010. But for now, and all the challenges in store for December it's really a jolly good time to share in the spirit of giving, sharing and loving...

For Pink Sketches
(this time its a card sketch for Christmas)


Over @ Ed's Sketch Got Stamp
Sketch for December

And here's mine...

Come and join in the fun..

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone who have send in all their best wishes to Saj for her PSLE . She has done well and is very happy with her results. Hope she will get into the choice of her school. Initially SOTA was her choice but decided that music band is not really what she wanted. She loves music, but to face it for six years in SOTA she wasn't ready for that. She was given the DSA (Direct School Admission) form by her music instructor when SOTA was having their admission exercise, but after much consideration, we have to reject because it is not to her best interest. Ultimately the decision is still hers. When she is happy all of us will be happy for her. Now, the choice of secondary school will be released on December 22nd. She's keeping her finger cross. Going into secondary school will be another chapter in her life. Hope she will do just fine...

Ok back to me.. Do you love doing minis? Like mini booklet, mini album? what else mini in scrapbooking do we have? Oh well, i decided to do a mini album yesterday and believe me this damn thing took me almost 4 hours to complete!!! My very very first attempt... Yes i'm a first timer when comes to minis :) Guess what?..I'm seriously falling in love with mini album. After completing it at close to 10pm yesterday night, i thought to myself, hey that's not that bad after all, and I'm sure going to do many more albums soon..
