Frequent Travels

Well, of late, I have been travelling a lot for work. This time around I was stationed in Berlin.
I actually brought over some scrapbooking supplies (from my Felicity Jane Kits) along with me *grin*...

I am still in progress of completing the "travel book" I made. Fingers crossed, hopefully after being home and settling down I will be able to start again. While travelling I took sometime also just to do some road tripping from Berlin > Krakow > Vienna > Munich before flying home. Some pictures from my trip...

A weekend with Friends in Krakow

 Road Tripping to Vienna 

 A Photo with a dear Friend in Vienna

Next stop, I head on to Munich on my own... Was happy that I made it even though I had a minor accident and hurt my legs badly getting here. I didn't give up but journeyed on and made my last stop to Munich before heading home.

2015 Travels.

Wow, I can't imagine, I'm finally blogging again. A quick recap of 2015, I started working again, which explains my absence. I was fortunate to have the chance to travel to Europe for the first time for business trip.
I fell in love with places I hardly knew and had great adventures meeting new people and making new friends. It was a fresh start for me after having a rough year.

First stop was beautiful Krakow, Poland. A place so unfamiliar to me yet, I had such a good time with new friends from Poland.

..... Zobaczylam to przepiekne miejsce...... (and I saw this beautiful place...)

My next stop was Helsinki. It was a totally different experience, having to know how it feels like to have only few hours of night time and a whole lot of daylight. It was indeed a beautiful city.

and last but not least, Guten Tag, Berlin Germany :) I called it the city of grafitti. My first impression was as if everyone in Berlin, has the gift to make art just with some cans of spray paint.  It is a beautiful place nonetheless. Well that briefly sums up my journey last year. Looking forward to share more soon...

Inspired by Challenge by Mei Li Paperie

Sorry for the delayed post. It has been a hectic week as DH met with a bicycle accident and had to be admitted to the hospital for surgery. He's now back home after a week at the hospital and recovering. Hopefully, all will be well soon :)

Without further adieu, let's talk about the new challenge which is still ongoing at Mei Li Paperie. The challenge is simple. How am I inspired by this picture to create my project.

I did a layout using pictures from my travel adventures around the world. I was inspired by the colours in the image so I used grey & bright colours like red, yellow & blue in both my photos & embellishments. I used multiple photos on my layout as it reminds me of the hanging gondolas on the ferris wheel. Heidi Swapp Magic Chipboard alphas were the perfect addition to represent the lights on the ferris wheel and I inked these with gold ink. I also love the chipboard stickers from Pink Paislee Hello Sunshine Collection.

Layout with Polaroid frames.

I have kept these polaroid frames for quite sometime now... :D I was intending to hoard them actually, but I figured, argh, I should use them, it will be wasted to just chuck them aside. Created a layout of my trip to Sabah during my birthday last year. Using mostly embellishment from Crate Paper, The Pier collection. I might have sprinkled too much mist (the one at the bottom was accidental) >.< 

I love to create dimensions with pop up dots for most of my layout. For this layout I layered the frames with different "heights" with pop dots. Love the dimension it created. I also mat the "Fun" wood veneer from Freckled fawn behind the frame. It fits nicely behind the polaroid frame... :)

Thanks for dropping by!

Documenting February & March

This time around I'm using a different layout for my spreads. These are a few of my favourite pocket design as well.

Some journalling on the pictures for a change.

A little bit of this and that on this spread, less journalling.

The last spread for February... Yeay! 

P.S. : The sweet lil baby is Cindy's newborn, Annabelle. She's finally here.

Kicking off March by highlighting my recent Taiwan trip. I really wanted the trip to be summarised in a glance, a whole 9 days would be too much, hence, I decided to use the square pockets and place the pictures by days. I have also pre-labeled the pictures before printing as well, that way I know where the picture was taken on which day. :) Nothing fancy, just simple titles.

There are too many street food in Taiwan. I did the same layout for street food as well. I love how they turned out and how I can see everything in a spread. 

Mini Album - Australia

WARNING : This post is overloaded with pictures. You have been warned.

After having work on this Amy Tangerine Daybook/ mini album for weeks... I finally completed it. Earlier, I have blogged about it here. Placement of photos in the album are not in chronological order as my trip was cut short, So I placed them randomly behind :)

I had a hard time photographing the album because it is so thick!
Anyways, I will let the pictures do the talking :) Thanks for looking!
