Christmas around the corner...

The little one hasn't been feeling well for the last two days. While, I'm busy getting ready for the market in 2 weeks time, tension is starting to build up at home. Everything is out of place... laundry is piling up, rooms are messy... baby is squeling *_* bah! Hate that feeling. Anyways, despite all the clutter & chaos, I manage to quickly pull off two cards to be sold in the market. Alright! Got to run! Thank you for looking (& hearing me rant) feels better now... off to clear the mess, first.

Project Life - June & Beginning of July

So, I've finally managed to crawl back in action for my Project life~! Yeay! I'm actually in love with how the pages are getting better each time, with better workflow too. Although, I'm not diligently creating my PL pages by week, I'm actually doing it by month now, which is so much more flexible as I go along. Really happy to be able to document life as it goes. Also, managed to convert both my Sister In Laws into project lifers :D WOOT! I'm still a about 2-3 months behind... but I'm glad that I'm still progressing. It's actually no that overwhelming if I don't stress so much on following "how" or "what" it should be. I guess alot of people get so caught up with how everyone else is doing it & get so overwhelmed.

On the spread above, I used some of Pink Paislee sentiment series goodies which I won from a IG giveaway... yeah!

Something Old, Something New

Just a few days ago, I sold off my Instax mini 7s. It was still in very good condition but I need to make way for a new toy...

the Instax Mini 90!

First shot I took was of Lucas (haha, wasn't hard to guess)

Remember the work in progress earlier, I manage to complete it :) This is dedicated to Cindy. Hope she will like it when she receives it! Lots of stuffs from our favourite Crate Paper... Also some from Dear Lizzy collections & my favourite thickers from Amy Tangerine.

The very first time I'm using Heidi Swapp's Color Shine - Gold... I think I'm falling in love with it.

Love the shimmer. Well the picture doesn't do the shimmer justice though... 

How I Missed Crafting

Although I've been away for 2 weeks, I haven't been doing much crafting last month. I'm itching to craft & finally I took some time to start working on where I left off. Moving along with Project life for the month of July & August...

A little sneak on a layout that I have been working on... 

Yeay! Stay tuned as I update more on the layouts I'm working on. Have a jolly good weekend.

Good day people! Sorry for my disappearance. I'm actually in Australia again :)

This is my first time being featured in a magazine so i'm super elated! Do check out the magazine as there are many projects and inspiration from talented peeps around the world...

Thank you for dropping by!

Birthday trip & Giveaway updates

I'm finally back and at my work desk trying to get some work done after a weekend away. I always believe that relaxing holidays, in reality actually simply means, delaying & piling up work so you need to work extra hard after your holidays. I had a wonderful time in East Malaysia. What's there not to love when the skies are blue & the sea is crystal clear!

The BIG THREE 'O' + Giveaway

I'm still in denial that I'm turning 30 this year! I must say that there any many ups and downs in life but I'm grateful for today. I'm blessed with a lovely family, my little angel & friends, who are & will always  be there for me. I thank god for Today. I altered this little book - the title seemed apt for the occasion :)

So, I have been blogging for a few years now. I have never given a RAK before. This year on this special day, I thought I would gather some goodies to send out to one of my lucky readers. 

Just do the following before 3rd of Sept. 11.59pm, Malaysian Time.
