No photos this time. Sorry!

Apologies for the 'no photo post' as I've not taken many pics lately due to my busy schedule. Marking season has descended upon us again and this time, it's threatening to blow up my brains and my sanity with 12 classes of the exact same thing to mark. I've never marked this sheer amount of scripts at any one time before so it's a new challenge for me. For the record, I'm 8 classes down and left with 4 more. argh.....

On a happier note, it's a holiday tomorrow so maybe i'll pull off some time to scrap (i need my sanity!) and i'm really itching to get down to some crafting. Have a project in mind to use up (ALL!) my cosmo love earth papers before nutmeg comes along. NUTMEG, I can't wait for u to arrive!

H is out at Queensway to buy trekking shoes so I'm home alone with my marking. I'm taking a break so decided to blog a short post.

Will be back after the marking is over!
Have a good weekend!

Cosmo goodness!

Managed to get photos of my latest project to upload with the help of H and his super duper (expensive) camera. Since he's into photography now, he's become my official camera man and is more than happy to take photos of my projects for me to post online!

First up: Gift for a colleague's birthday..who's also my boss. A very nice one too. :) It's a little name piece for her to display!



Next up: A mini album for aunt Monica and her family to thank her for her help and generosity during my recent wedding. She didn't want to take our ang pow so I thought I'll make her something that she can put her family photos in. The pages on the left are empty for her to put in her own photos!

Cover Page: (Minus the word 'Family' that i'm supposed to glitter and put on but I'm afraid it'll dirty my floor so I'll do it last!)

That's all for now, I've to go cook dinner but I'll be mindful to update my blog more often!

Back!

Apologies to my frequent blog readers that I've been away for so long. I really do not have a habit of updating my blog regularly, mostly cos I am not a big photographer and I do feel the need to post some photos when I update my blog!

I still have no photos of now but will be back with some of my lastest work in my next post!

New Layout!

Did this layout on sunday night for my pre wedding photos and completed it this evening with the help of Jean. I love the final look of it and am really glad it all came out quite nicely together. Big thanks to Jean as always for the photos and resizing. I owe her big time (but i think i already paid her in kind by giving her an album from cosmo!)

Here are the photos:







Have a great week ahead!!

Maya Road Mini Album

Was very inspired by the design of this Maya Road Mini Album and I decided that I was going to buy it and work on a little project to capture our good days together over the past year. I think it's always nice to look back on the past and jot down your memories of those great moments you have with your SO. As always, October Afternoon is one of my most favourite brands to work with and definitely a wise choice to do up this album. Maya Road + October Afternoon = GREAT STUFF!!

Here's how the album looks like!

Have a good week everyone. Will try to post my next project soon!

New blogskin!

Got a new blogskin up today after deciding that my own one (or lack of) was too boring. Thanks to Sri who tried to teach me via MSN and my sister who came over to my room and did it for me. I'm happy with the new skin.

Programme for today:
Lunch with family..Kate is coming over. Woo!
Collect stuff at my tailor
Work!

Have a good holiday everyone!

Late Photos!

Was clearing my desktop today and doing some back up and I realised that I've not posted these photos of an album I did about 2 months back. This is the first of 2 6 x 6 albums I've done using the fantastic zutter my colleagues got me. It's about me and my better half!

Here are some pictures:










On a side note: Went to watch $ing Dollar today at the Esplanade and was surprised to see Joel Nah's name in the band. Wow. He's really talented (I'd always knew that) but I didn't know he was that acclaimed in the local music scene. Managed to chat with him for a while after the show and it's nice to see old friends again after so long.

On an even better note: The long weekend is here and that means I can hang up my working socks for a while and do some scrapping but that'll have to wait till Monday cos I think I'll do some work tomorrow to feel less guilty. Didn't do any on friday and today!

have a great weekend!!
