Courage

Quote from Dr. Meridith Grey

“Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.”

Exclusively for you!

Today i would like to share 2 exclusive cards designed for Smidapaper.

Using materials from MME, Webster pages, Prima & Crate paper.

Both cards available for sale at Smidapaper :)

Change is constant.

Quoted from Dr. Meredith, Grey's Anatomy

"When we say things like "people don't change" it drives scientist crazy because change is literally the only constant in all of science. Energy. Matter. It's always changing, morphing, merging, growing, dying. It's the way people try not to change that's unnatural. The way we cling to what things were instead of letting things be what they are. The way we cling to old memories instead of forming new ones. The way we insist on believing despite every scientific indication that anything in this lifetime is permanent. Change is constant. How we experience change that's up to us. It can feel like death or it can feel like a second chance at life. If we open our fingers, loosen our grips, go with it, it can feel like pure adrenaline. Like at any moment we can have another chance at life. Like at any moment, we can be born all over again."

Sharing my take for Smidapaper's Color Challenge. I have always love working with colours like blue and pink... but this time around, we are challenged to create a layout or card with colours based on the following photo...

Here's a layout i have created with Crate paper portrait collection, pearls, buttons, blooms & die cut chipboard... Photos courtesy of the couple, Sharon & Aaron... :D

Do join us for this fun challenge and stand a chance to win some goodies from Smidapaper...

Heartfelt Thanks Mom

Today, is one of those moody days... and my head is aching badly... probably caused by the hot weather, probably too much thinking... just want to be alone.

Been down with a series of bad luck...

1. My laptop HD died on me. I had to redo all my work from scratch due 1st of May...

2. My favorite stamps are missing (not sure if i misplaced them or not)

3. etc...

Wish that my luck will be better soon :'(

In the midst of the chaos, I manage to find solace in crafting and created a mother's day card...

P.S. : I still need to master the technique of stamping (*Cindy Lee *hint *hint)... wobbly hands

Customised DVD Sleeves

Since Pixous started in 2009, wedding has been a big part of my life. To me, to be able to be part of a wedding, gives me so much joy... i love planning weddings, i love shooting weddings... i love how i can be creative and be a piece of that one special day.

When delivering the final product to my customers at Pixous Photography, I always try to incorporate a lil bit of crafting to my work... I'm happy that I'm given the ability to create something special for my customers; How much I have evolved as a crafter since then...

Back in 2009

Back in 2010

Check out these customised DVD sleeves made specially for two of my customers which I did recently. Most of them are not aware that our DVD sleeves are specially made for them until they receive their photos, and they are usually very happy that it's something they can treasure, rather than just a plain plastic cover...
