At Last

I was watching Grey's Anatomy before I did this. And, I sort of related it to my cutting the "Little Yellow Bicycle Butterfly/Pink Journal" patterned paper (from the Sharon Ann Delightful collection). I hesitated --- a lot! Hahaha... I was like George during Season 1 Hahaha

The yummy patterned paper was so beautiful and it broke my heart to cut the birds and butterflies. But, with this layout, I only used 2 patterned papers : the base with the very pretty Deja Views Blue and the Little Yellow Bicycle --- I used the front and back. And, I still have a lot left! Dawter T was eyeing the remaining butterflies on the paper but it's Earth Month. I don't want to waste paper! Hehe...

(Note : the almost yellow background is our floor - hehehe. It gave me an idea while I was cropping the photo that I could actually paste the base on another base because it made the Deja View Blue stand out more but--- I want to save trees! I am already happy with this!)

Lily @ 33


Happy Mother's Day to my dear friend, Lily. Here's an LO I made for her. One of the new things I tried is selective coloring of the photo using Adobe PS. I made the background B/W. Another one is to paint the swirls with pink acrylic paint (no big deal but first time I tried this hehehe) and further highlighted them byputting glossy accents. Love this! It's like making your own gel die cuts.
Happy Mom's Day!

May Day

May Day! May Day! Cannot scrap, cannot scrap!

It's really not lack from trying, but the creative juices just won't flow. So, we just had a movie marathon and gazillion of tears flowed out from my eyes this afternoon! *Sniff, sniff, sniff*

But,

Sister C managed to finish one and the subject is --- tada --- me and Pre! It's one of our wedding photos that I wish to scrap but just gave it to her after seeing her other wedding LO. I was so touched that she used her precious Prima flowers and papers on that LO! Mwah! I love it!!!




Well, that's me (15 kg ago) and Pre (when he still has hair)! Sister C asked me to put my own journal. Here's my contribution to the LO! Hehehe

Journal :

Remember the day our lives became one. I was very nervous. I think I didn't sleep at all. I kept on thinking of all the little details that can go wrong. I know it's quite trivial but the thing is, the reason I was not thinking about us is because I am very sure of my feelings for you that I had no second thoughts. I just want a day that we'll remember for the rest of our lives.

Tomorrow's Friday! Hope things are better at work! If not, I will just ask Sister C to eat at Jolly-V! Hehehe...

Out Cold

I was down with stomach flu last Sunday til Monday, but was givena 2 day MC til yesterday. If I am not wrong, it's one of the few times that I didn't blog hop while on leave. I must be really sick! There's still pain every now and then, but I am ok now. Though, there was something unexpected at the office to welcome me back. Anyway, at least it's over and it's a no work day again tomorrow.

Last Saturday, we celebrated Scrappers At SG's 1st anniversary. We had loads of fun! Our aim is to be able to scrap one LO during that meet. To add a twist to it, we had to scrap another scrapper's photo. I got Bheng's photo and this is what I did! I hope Bheng and Duday liked it!
