Wedding Guest Book

I know it's been some time and I'm really sorry for not updating this blog. I really should make it a point to do so. Here are some pictures of my wedding guest book that I did in June. Everyone will get to sign on it!

The cover page:


The inside pages..




The last page..


I used the Making Memories Wedding Collection for this, together with shimmery silver paper from some craft shop at Bras Basah..Also promised Becky I'll do one for her in future!

Journals..

Have been very busy lately with work and stuff - sincere apologies for the lack of updates. Anyhow, this is what I've been up to for the past few weeks:


Here is how the inside looks like:


These are my own hand made journals - made totally from scratch from the choice of thickness of cardboards and the paper colour for the front and insides. They are for a few good colleagues (friends actually!) that I'll be giving to as a farewell gift for my departure soon. I've had lots of fun doing them and brought them to Bras Basah for binding (Argh..Time to get my own zutter!!)

Here are a few more for Moo, TM and YM..







I have 4 more at hand (made a total of 8!) waiting to be bound so I won't post any pictures yet..but I'll do so once I get them bound...

May this post inspire to do some scrapping and make your own journals! They're really fun and not tough at all..

Have a blessed week!

Long weekend scrapping!

Managed to find time today to do up my lastest mini album for my good friend..Here are some photos:

Updated cover page (an extra ribbon!)

Here are the first 2 pages (apologies for covering our faces in the photos. I'm still not prepared for the world to know how I look like)..


Subsequent Pages:








I'm still left with 2 more pages but had to stop as I ran out of photos. Will have to take more pictures soon so that I can finish up the album.

Blessed Easter, everyone!

Surpise on a Tuesday afternoon!

Look what I found today on my table when I came back after lunch!!:



After peeling away the brown waxy paper..Ta da (comes with sandpaper too!)~~~


Here is a shot of all 6 of them lined up together:



I'm so happy to finally get my hands on them. I've been searching high and low for something similar to these at the stores to no avail for the past 2 months. So, u can imagine my elation when I managed to get a colleague to use his expert skills to do them for me! I've still not thought of a concept and colour theme yet for this acrylic album but I'm sure the ideas will flow..

Many thanks to HC and D for helping me to the acrylic pieces. I'm indebted to you for your kindness.

On a random note: Here is what I did today for the cover of the album i'm currently working on for a friend:



Whops: I do hope she is not browsing my blog cos that'll spoil the birthday surprise... *Cross fingers*

Surpise on a Tuesday afternoon!

Sunday afternoon Scrapping..

Had some inspiration last night to use the cardboards I got from the Scarp store for free to make a mini album. They're about 2mm thick only and thinner then chipboards but are still very handy to make albums. I cut each piece in a 4.5" X 4.5" square and glued patterned cardstock on each of them. I'm not fully done with the whole album yet but here is what i used (patterned cardstock & cardboard):


This is what the Cover Page looks like


The Insides (apologies - very plain..no inspiration to fill it up yet!)




Finally..the back page:



I punched three holes on each side using a puncher i bought from spotlight (Fantastic tool!) and went down to Popular just now to get the ring loops..

Going to work on it in the days to come cos it's a gift for a dear friend's birthday. I'll post more pictures as it develops.

Special thanks again to my sister for letting me steal some paper off her to match the rest of the paper and also for her fantastic corner shaper to round the ages. It's worth her $12.95 cos i get to use it!

1st Scrap Project

Some photos of my very first project which i completed in Feb. Took me 2 months to get down to taking photos and posting them. They're a whole set of 6 chip boards from Maya Road and it's really fun to work on them. I prefer doing such projects compared to Layouts..for some reason this is more fun!

This is a general photo of how it looks like:
