Sneaky peaky!

Hi everyone! It's been a busy but fun weekend last week. We went for NATS family day at Janda Baik on Saturday and joined ERC treasure hunt on Sunday. I only managed to complete one layout last weekend, as I was just so tired to stay up and scrap. But it was a good kind of tired as we had a blast weekend. Read more about it our weekend getaways at Zazamazu blog.

The layout I did was for Creative Scrappers, which can only be revealed this Sunday. Here is a sneak peak of it.. don't forget to come back on Sunday for the reveal! ;)

Oh, I just found out I won 3rd prize for Scrap The Boys for this layout. Yey!!! I won a boy kit from What is Old is New Kit!!!! Too bad that this blog is shutting down as I enjoyed joining their challenges...

Don't mess with me

This month I'm a bit slow on the challenges.. maybe because I am working again.. bummer! :) But I always participate in Scrap the Boys, I just love their challenges. For October, it's an inspiration challenge from this cool poster. I like the overlapping circles and the journaling around them, so that's why I did in my layout. This picture of Zareef was taken after his 4th birthday party, where he was testing his new sword. His expression said it all.. "DON'T MESS WITH ME!!"

3rd place at Scrap the boys!

I just found out that I won 3rd prize at Scrap the boys birthday challenge! I won a $20 store voucher at Scrap of Your Life. This is just awesome! Thanks for picking my Mechana Party layout!

Mechana party

This September, Scrap the Boys challenge us to make layout of our boy's birthday. It has to be multi-photo and have to include some journaling of the party details to document the precious memories. I already did a mini of Zareef's 4th birthday but another layout to capture the day won't hurt. I use these lovely Kaiserkraft robot papers, which fits the birthday theme of Animal Mechanicals cartoon, hence the title Mechana Party (but we had Ben10 cake since there's no readily available Mechana cake). Zareef used to love them a lot, but now he's into Transformers, which fits with the robots too. He even called the red robot Optimus Prime.. :)

The layout is again inspired by Twisted Sketch #13. Love their sketch! The twist this time is to use any type of tape. For this layout, I used the backing of the double sided tape (the one we threw away) and stapled them into ribbons, and added a button in the centre.

and here is my take..

King of Fruits

This layout is inspired by Candy Shoppe Design Warm-It Up Pre-challenge.. It is a warm up before the launch of CSD, and I think it is a fun challenge and want to give it a try.. The challenge is to create a layout using the sketch provided, but only to use warm colors. Not really sure what constitutes as warm colors, but I think brown is very warm indeed.

The theme of this layout fits Scrap the Boys August challenge, where we have to scrap our boys with food. Zareef really loves fruits; he will eat almost every kind of fruits. But he loves local fruits the best. He likes this 'buah salak', which is quite rare in Malaysia. They are more famous in Indonesia. Our Bibik introduced it to Zareef, and he really loves it. Personally, I don't like it that much, so I don't usually buy them, plus it's not readily available. Luckily, Bibik will always get some for Zareef everytime she takes the day off. He calls them 'buah kulit tajam'.. :)

Scrap the Boys July challenge

Here is a layout for Scrap the Boys July challenge, where the theme is "Real boys don't... ". Actually, we are suppose to scrap pictures of our boys doing girly things, but I can't find any suitable picture of Zareef acting girlish. I guess that our boy is 100% boy and rough and tough as boys can be.. haha..

But I think it's appropriate to scrap stuffs that real boys do too. So here it is, Real Boys are nice to girls. Zareef is most almost nice to girls about his age. He acted all sweet and nice around girls, especially with his buddy Qariena or Nana. But this does not apply to Zara tough. It's all rough and tumble with Zara.. :)
