World Cardmaking Day 2016 - Christmas Cards

Happy World Cardmaking Day! Card making is something close to my heart as it is what brought be closer to the scrapbooking world. So, I know that it is only the beginning of October but I couldn't wait to create some Christmas Cards!! Yes... Christmas.

Recently, I am really loving the minimalist trend... So I am keeping my card designs simple and clean this time... I just love Kellie Winnel's christmas stamps... Don't you love them? They are so versatile... Another Favourite is sequins from Felicity Jane Kits... :) Hope you like them ! Thank you for dropping by...

Oh Lemons!

First Layout since I got home. These photos of my son came up on my feed few days ago and i knew I had to scrap them as they are my favourite photos of him growing up. His first time tasting a lemon!

Using only Materials from Felicity Jane Kits. Playing with papers and layering them was so much fun! With very minimal embellishments, this is what I created... Simple. Love the Puffy Alphas from Pink Fresh which came with one of the kits.

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...

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.

Thank You Card

Hey there, how is your weekend so far... I am still trying my best to keep creating. while cleaning up, I found some pictures that I have forgotten to post last year. Here is a Card I made for a Colleagues "farewell" :)

Happy Life - Felicity Jane Kit

Hi, I am back. 3rd post for 2016. I am on a roll... Here I created a layout with a mix of Felicity Jane's May & April kits & the frame is from one of my favorite manufacturers, Crate Paper. Only after I finished the layout that I only realised that this picture of my son was coincidentally very similar to myself in Krakow from the previous layout I made. :D

For this layout, I used some printables from Felicity Jane which comes with the kit subscription. I love the heart that says "love". Note-to-self kit also came with Heidi Swap's Color Shine in Gold... which was used for the ink splatters. Pattern Papers are mainly from both Chloe & Note To Self kits.

Kits I used:

First layout of 2016 - NSD Sketch

Finally, after a year of hiatus, I gathered my courage to start scrapbooking again. I decided to take the plunge and subscribed to Felicity Jane scrapbooking kits. It was the best decision thus far. I now look forward to receiving a kit each month and playing with them. This is actually my first time subscribing to a kit club. I am still struggling a bit to get my mojo back but here is my take for a NSD challenge sketch by our talented Jessy Christopher :)

I love love love the soft tone of this layout and yet some bold statements with black and white patterned papers. I am still very much in love with gold accents and butterfly!

My Take on the Sketch :

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...
