Happy Times

Hello crafty friends. welcome to my blog!

Last month, I joined Scraplift Sunday January 21st at Paper Issues. The inspiration came from a layout created by Elodie Lusseau.



When I saw the challenge, I knew that I had to use On Trend collection from Crate Paper that I've been hoarding for ages!

Here's my take



The collection has a beautiful paper with several tags on it. I just had to cut the tags and arrange them based on the inspiration layout. I love the heart doily paper that I tucked in behind my photo, so beautiful! Next I used bits and pieces from my stash to complete the layout. I love how easy this page came together.

Thank you for visiting! Wishing you a wonderful day!

Let's Get Sketchy - February 15th Sketch


Hi everyone, welcome to my blog!

It's time for another installment of Let'ss Get Sketchy. Here's the new sketch for February 15th created by Brenshevia



and here's my take



I used the September 2016 Cut File from Hip Kit Club. I simply cut it using white cardstock and adhere it to this beautiful rainbow paper from Simple Stories, Good Day Sunshine collection. I love that the cut file really pop over the paper. You must see it in person, it's so pretty.

Because the cut file and the paper was pretty busy, I didn't use too much embellishment on my page. I keep it simple to make the photos as the center of attention. I simply used stickers from the collection as well together with bits and pieces from my stash.

Remember to play along with us and link your layout to Let's Get Sketchy blog by February 28. We have $25.00 gift certificate from Kj Kareen for this month's winner.

Thank you for stopping by and happy crafting!

Hello Adventure

Hey everyone, welcome to my blog!

I love cut files. They're beautiful, versatile and could add wow elements in my page. My favourite sites to purchase cut files, besides Silhouette store, are Just Nick Studio and The Cut Shoppe. I have purchased tons of their cut files and determine to use them in every single layout that I made, I wish!

Now, I used Doodle Floral Circle Background cut file from Just Nick Studio for my page here. I enlarge the cut file so it filled most of my background paper. I chose floral paper from American Crafts old collection. Since the patterned paper is already bright and colourful, I backed the cut file with soft green paper to tone it down.


Close-up of the cut file:



The photo was taken from my recent vacation in Singapore. I used single large photo to really make it centre of attention. I also used clear sticker from Simple Stories that I simply put directly in the photo. Aren't these stickers lovely.. :)

Here's the close-up





I really love the way this page came out together. I'll be making more layouts with cut files for sure!
 
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Oh...Happy Day - February 1 Challenge from Stuck?! Sketches

Hi everyone, welcome to my blog!

It's no secret that I love playing with sketches. They're fun and could give you a starting point to create your layout.

This time I played along with February 1 2018 sketch from Stuck?! Sketches






I have tons of old photos of my daughter that I have yet to scrap. So I'm happy that I finally scrap these photos using Snap collection from Simple Stories. I fussy cut various elements from the paper to embellish my page. I really love the brightness and bold colors of this Simple Stories collection. They fit perfectly with my scrapping style. Well, if you could color your world why make it dark right!

Hope you like my page and thank you for stopping by!

I used Wonder collection from Crate Paper to document my son's activity while we had our family vacation in Bandung. This is his first experience to spend vacation in another city and to stay in a hotel. And to our surprise, he enjoyed it very much. So proud of you my boy!
