Hand made Calender 2010

Hello.. Happy New Year to any readers that happens to come to my blog.. It's another year again not knowing what will happen in this year.. Just hope that everything will goes smooth and fine..

I had made myself a hand made calender to use in the office. As usual, I like big spaces for the rows and columns to enable me to write something on it. For example, someone's birthday.. important dates, etc. A mini project that it took me about approximately 6 hours....Why it took me so long? Hahaha..

A few months back, I was so obssessed with card making.. and now I stopped again. Spent so much money and had stopped again ya... and that is always ME..

Purchases as on 07-11-2009

Thought of watching 2012 on Saturday but all the showing time were fully booked on that day so we watch The Traveller's Wife instead. Not bad. I had always love to watch love stories. And after the movie, what else can we do in the shopping mall?? Of course shopping laaaaa...

Bought a 1 1/2" scallop circle punch from Marvy Uchida and a 1 1/8" circle punch from EK Sucess. And they prices were not cheap at all !!!

Bought sentiment clear stamps as well. I had always love sentiment stamps!

Even though it comes with a 10% discount, it is still expensive! I told myself that I had done enough shopping for papers, tools and stamps. Otherwise, I will be going to declare bankrupt soon. LOL ^_^

My purchases with Scrap-n-Crop

Girls just love to spend their money, don't they? Sometimes, I feel like I want to buy a new lens for my DSLR or perhaps a speedlite!!! But just don't know why I invested in these instead. These tools and papers I bought from Scrap-N-Crop ain't cheap ler... It costed me a few hundreds RM !!!! I felt heartache too spending on these new tools but thinking back, I can make nice cards with these new tools...

Scrap-it-Lah September Challenge

I googled on "scrapbook malaysia" 2 weeks ago and came across Scrap-it-lah's page.. I was surprised to see that scrapbooking is getting more popular within the country. I was attracted to the September Challenge which is to do a layout using at least 70% of your favorite manufacturer's paper and embellishments. Hhmmm.. and I thought why not to give it a try.
'
The title of the layout is 'Simply Us'. I don't want the layout to look complicated. I just want a simple layout... a neat and tidy layout to suit my title of the page.. Here you go :

Card Stock : Brown Bazzill Cardstock

Patterned Papers (blue & green with polka dots) : K & Company

Alphabet Chipboards : K & Company

Die-cut frame with message : K & Company

Flowers : Can't remember ( I lost the tag )

K & Company Scrap Pad To Go Kit with Chocolate Neopolitan theme.
Love that everything is in it..I just need to mix and match the patterned papers.K & Company Alphabet Chipboards for the title.

It is nice to scrapbook again.. ^_^

Crafty Heart Online Purchase

Scrapbooking & Card-making is not a popular hobby in Malaysia. I got into this hobby a few years back when surfing online and came across scrapbook.com and was amazed by the hand-made scrapbooks & cards. I wish I can hand-made those too. There are not many shops in KL selling scrapbooking stuffs.. There only a few that I know ; Craft Haven & Scrapbook at One Utama, Papier at The Curve and Scrappingville in Bangsar. I love to visit these shops..there are so many cute stuffs to see.. things are just so beautiful. However, things are kinda pricey too. ;-) Recently, found this online shop called Crafty Heart. Things are not overly priced and I love it. And they are having a promotion : ALL STICKERS that are priced RM6.50 are sold at ONLY RM5.50 each! If you purchase 5 sticker sheets, you'll get 1 FREE! The promotion is so tempting!!!!! Hence, did an online shopping with Crafty Heart.

I love receiving parcels. Was so excited opening it... ^_^

I bought 5 stickers and get 1 free.. RM 27.50 for 6 stickers
