B & W

First try out.......

On my way to scrap

I am just about on my way to do more scrapping , its all because i have organised a little more space to be more organised on my scrappy stuff... not all done, but i am sure it will get more organised till the drawers arrived . Love those "S" shape hangers, it just get things nicely decorated and it ease me on choosing my embellishments. ofcourse my RECYCLE bin , i am just too bored soo i decided to altered the bin....... to my surprise i am quite satisified with it ! A $2 bin just look soo classic ehh...... hehehe ! Proud of myself !

Ds Botanical Layout

There are suppose to be 3 layouts to be done in DS - Botanical but i have only finished one of it ! So here it is . a bright and cheerful layout.....

Tim Holtz altered tin

An altered tin to store ur valuable memories... ooopss its left unfinished becos i dun have enough pictures but i believe we will be able to fill up each of the album in it !

Jaime and Tienni

Little sister tienni of Jie jie jaime......

No More Little Jaime.....

Little jaime is no more little as she has grown to a very matured 4yrs old child..... she is way tooo chattable. As pretty as always. Here are some of her poses which she said its " halloween " . Cutes as always too......

On the way to Singapore

On my way to singapore, nothing much i can do on plane alone... so i decided to take some pictures. A caucasian guy beside might have think that i am crazy taking picutures of what's in my bags ! hehe well but its fun ... nothing much in my bag but i just wonder why it is soo heavy !

The Dancer

I have finally came up with something for little ally..... i still owed her 3 layouts since last year's album... if u do keep up with my blog u would understand what i am talking about ! but i have only done one and she is leaving on 3rd september... this is just a simple and clean cut layout..... after so long that i have not touch on scrapbooking i have no other techniques to show off... this is what i can only present...

Allyssa's B'day

Its Allyssa's 3rd Birthday.... isn't she cute with all her poses ? What a great poser , she is !

Its Me !

Its "Me" layout, that i have just completed last night..... its been quite awhile that i have not scrap, worrying of the tonnes of outdated papers and embellishment stocking in the room ! forcing myself to close my eyes and telling myself that i dun need it when i see the latest arrival in laines blog ! hehehe. Not much of ideas on how to start the design of the layout and this is what i came out with no plans at all...... whatever that's on my eyelevel , i will just grab and put it on ! Here's how i present it !
