Sketchabilities #15 - Cool in shades

Here is another layout for Sketchabilities, Sketch #15 by Karan. Unlike Zareef, Zara really love to pose to the camera, so she has lots of these face shots, which are perfect for multi-photos layout! Here she posed with her sunnies, cute as ever :) I am still de-stashing now, so it is harder now to find matching papers and embellies. On the other hand, it is good that I am forced to use papers I found hard to use before, such as this one from Basic Grey Indian Summer. The colors are rich and lovely, but I had a hard time putting them together in a layout. I hope you all like how this one turned out. TFL!

Capture These Sketches #34 - SAD

Hey.. sorry I have been busy (and lazy) to scrap lately, where I scrap only my assignments. My mojo is also is thinning lah! So here's another entry as a April Guest Designer for Lets Capture These Sketches. Lovin this simple sketch by Guylaine, and I am keeping the layout clean and simple too. Here is a picture of Zareef looking so sad. I don't remember exactly why, but I can guess that he was sad to be left behind. I love these chipboards from Crate Papers, as I've been using them again and again. Plus, I think the clouds with the raindrops suit the picture perfectly. TFL!!

Sketchabilities #14 - Smiles that shine

I am happy to share my first reveal as a Sketchabilities DT. Always enjoyed doing their sketches, and this one is no exception. Here are some pictures of Zara posing in front of the camera, making funny and sweet faces for us. Love these fun papers from My Little Shoebox, and thought they fit the pictures well. Do join in the challenge and hope to see your creations soon!!!

Creative Scrappers Anniversary - Nitty Gritty

Hi everyone!!! I am glad to be selected to join Creative Scrappers 2nd anniversary!! They are celebrating with DT blog hop and also readers reveals every Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am invited to do a layout based on their sketch and here is my take..

Sleepy head

Here is another layout for Lets Capture These Sketches, Sketch #32 by Allison Cope. As their guest designer for April, I received a die cut embellies pack from Kustom Die Kuts! I used their vine or leaves die-cut in this layout. Isn't nice? I scrapped these pictures of Zara falling to sleep. It is just so funny how she finally succumbed to her sleepiness. Most of the papers here is from Basic Grey Porcelain collection. Still has many papers left.. now I am de-stashing and not buying any new products.. not yet anyway.. *wink*..

So do hop on the site and join in the April sketches!!!!

Lets Capture These Sketches - Wonder boy

I have been invited to be April Guest Designer for Capture These Sketches. Remember my Sleepy, Silly and Happy challenges? Guess what? I won February's Snow White challenges grand prize!!! So, they asked me to join in their team for the month of April. How fun is that!

Here's my layout based on Calia's Sketch #31. Some cute photos of Zareef showing off his funky hairstyle, while smirking at the camera. I am misting again, this time I am playing with the title. I misted the alphas, then drew the outline myself. I kinda like how that turned out.. :)) Do check out the site and join in the sketches!!

And I am also glad that this layout won the random prize from March ARTastic challenge!! Yey, more goodies on the way... :)))

Not so tough girl

Here is a layout fresh from the oven.. this layout is based on Sketchabilities Sketch #13. I love how their sketches motivate me to scrap multi photos layouts! This layout is also for Crack Me Up challenge from Candy Shoppe Design, which to scrap funny, hilarious or embarrassing memories that you won't dare to scrap before.

Well, I think these pictures from my recent field trip was quite embarrassing. I have a very sensitive skin, and easily burned. So, during the field trip, I covered my face using a handkerchief, looking like a street robber or something.. hehe.. It was really hot and humid, so the handkerchief really help to avoid the sun. Even with that, my face and body still burnt slightly. However, I had a great field trip, so I also include some happy photos too.. :)) These October Afternoon papers are perfect for this, and I even used the paper Report Card: Field Trip, where I pasted the label onto the layout... TFL!!
