Mother's Day card

Here is the card I made for my mother-in-law, or as we lovingly call, LOLA. I used my stash paper to create this card, and some free stickers from Scrapbook magazine. I like these stickers by Beatrix Potter, aren't they just lovely? Hope mama likes it.

Scrapperlicious Shahrul

I just found that my scrap 'guru' is giving a tutorial on mini albums! You know who.. it's Shahrul or Kak Own, as most of us who knows her. It is no suprise as her mini albums are really really gorgeous! FYI- she's the one who introduced scrapbooking to me. She made a lovely mini album for Zara and from then on I thought I want to do this too. I will love this hobby. But I told her I would not have the time to do this with two small children to take care of. But she encouraged me to try and here I am!

She will give a tutorial on a gate-fold mini album, like the Pride and Prejudice album she did. Check it out at the Scrapping Glitz site. I will surely want to be one of her students. Her mini album collections are just so beautiful and yummylicious! She is really one talented scrapper... Scrapperlicious Shahrul! So proud of you, Kak Own!

Here is the album she did for Zara...

Beach dudes

Yey! I managed to create one more layout on Sunday, making the total layouts created during the long weekend to 3. I am taking up one of the Scrappin Kids Fiesta challenge, which is a color challenge. I can only use red, yellow, aqua blue, green and kraft. Well, back to basic! :) I have never used these combinations before but don't you think it's nice?

I found these bright and cheerful papers at Papier and remembered this challenge. So, I thought that I would give it a try. It's an odd combinations for me but I think it turned out OK. These pictures are from our recent trip to Awana Kijal. The family was accompanying me for my HUET (helicopter training). :))

National Scrapbooking Day

Wow... we even have a National Scrapbooking Day!! That just shows that this hobby is really picking up in Malaysia. Good on us! And it coincides with the Labor Day 3 day weekend! Well, I thought that I can create lots of layouts, but I only managed to create 2 layouts, including a 2-pages spread (even when staying up til 3am!). I started a mini album too.. but only managed to get the cover done.. (still waiting for goodies from Nadhrah). Visited Papier today..they had a 15% storewide discount (10% for new arrivals). I bought lots of new papers and thickers!!

Well, here are my layouts during the NSD weekend...

Zara's 12 months of smile.. capturing her beautiful smile in her first year.

Why so serious? Zareef's bad mood at his best! Haha.. this is how he looks like when he's grumpy.. "I want mama.. Mama come here... I want to hold mama's hand.. Do like batu (a fist)..." Glad to be able to capture this.
