It was another good time spent with my crop buddies. We have great laugh, nespresso and McD. It’s a matter of quality time spent, sharing our daily moments of lives. Thanks, Anne, Jen for the wonderul time again and a notable one for our new year day.

The 2 layouts below was completed. Being the slow scrapper, I have only managed to complete the last layout, Year 2009 by mid afternoon today. Nonetheless, feel very accomplished. :) I’ve scrapped myself happy!

This album was created with the help from Jen, my crop buddy. It’s really simple to do and the effect is very different. I have made it into a photo frame stand and displayed on my TV console area.

Thanks, Sis for sharing the know how. :)

I would want to know what had gone wrong, it’s the wordpress problem or it’s Ecto that’s acting up on me. Most of my May blog posting are missing. Duh!?! I have to repost one by one again by copy and paste the older post on my local machine, then delete. Errors like ID look up problem (of course as they were not in my server what!), pictures went missing etc.

Anyway, here are the completed LOs of the Celine’s LO Workshop.

How was your mother’s day? loads of love and sweet nothings shower for your mama? I had a super ME time of pre-mother’s day celebration by rewarding myself a whole day workshop of 3 Celine Navarro’s classes at Made with Love. It was inspiring session especially when Sis came and we had fun time doing the classes, LO class and also the metal album is very refreshing. :) love the talented ladies from france as they are so unassuming and approachable. Karine Cazenave is Celine’s travel buddy I guess and they are like long term pals, by the way they tease each other. It’s so funny seeing Celine chiding Karine during class.

here are some of the photos taken during the classes.

The most fulfilling time has just gone by. It’s always after the crop session, I will feel so full of INSPIRATION and JOY. Of course the time spend with my dearest sis always make the crop session such an enjoyment.

I’ve completed a layout of my favorite photo taken just this month. This will be the addition to the current creative display in my living room. :) I am satisfied with the outcome of the creation, nothing too much or too little done. I’ve also manage to combine a few brands of PP to make this LO.

A definite must to have my BigShot and Sizzix Flowers Layers to be on my layout. :D Ain’t it sweet?

I’ve also completed a shadow box gift for Seth’s and Grace’s PD. She is such a wonderful lady who is always so caring and attentive to them. Hope she’ll like this little gift.

Dozed off around 11yish, I have no idea I can be so tired. The week ended pretty fast and I am probably still swamp with new environment at work, people and roles. Nonetheless, the week has been good with me being more proactive, trying to be focus, learning, meeting expectations. I would hope that I can master the necessary skills at work to better equip me to have more influx of sales, despite a difficult economic climate.

On with a long weekend. My pals at ex-company have gone up to M’sia, Klang. Wish so much to join them but new job and also family commitment do not allow me to have the chance. I managed to catch up a bit with them today though at breakfast. It’s good to be around good friends and chat the daily stuffs.

Since in a waking moments at 3+ in the wee hours, I do the usual of twitter-reads, blog-browsing and want to share the recent interest I have been reading. Here they are:

.: kidslovedesign :.

kidslovedesign latest

I simply love the contemporary design they share and the products (ranging from furniture, toys that they carry (though with a pricey tag). I am not so much a fan of country-style ID and friends would have known by the visit to my “White House”. Check out their blog where they will share with you the latest design trends for kids. From one of the blog post, I came to know of fifi mandirac and her cutesy creation of papeterie and she has an interesting blog as well. Her website is flash-enabled thus if you are on a iPhone/iPod Touch, it’s not viewable.

.: Shutter Sisters :.

I enjoy inspiring photos and I love the works of Tara Whitney, and lately came upon the Shutter Sisters. They were rank no. 1 in the name your dream assignment contest. Congrats! :) Their project is called Picture Hope.

Two shutter sisters travel to five continents to create a visual catalog of hope from surprising sources while an entire community of women photographers do the same right here at home.

We are Shutter Sisters Jen Lemen and Stephanie Roberts, and our dream is to tell stories that change you and me forever.

They have a Flickr Community Group - One Word Project which is very inspiring. This month’s Theme would of course be HOPE

Back on the scrapbooking scene, I am always looking forward to Hip Hop Thursday and will always hop on to my pal’s blog for inspiration and do drop by and get the mojo flowing by browsing her creation. *Fantabulous works* I am still waiting impatiently for my Unity Stamp Co.,’s KOM!

Oh yes! Almost forgot, tonight is the night where I spent the most on getting my vision gear. Geeez….it’s a tough decision to make but I hope I did a good one.. :)

If you were to say running a marathon, I am definitely not up to mark to do that…. but if to ask me to have marathon crop session. HA! I am full of energy and can “scrap” as long as I try to stay awake.Despite the lack of sleep on Friday night till Saturday morning, I’ve continued to crop wih J till Saturday Evening. In fact, we had planned to bring the kids to my colleague’s place for mj and kids playtime but the plan has to be cancelled as Seth got a high fever in the afternoon ad we had to monitor his condition. So, it created the opportunity for J and I to continue with what we are scrapping.

Here’s the LO completed today. Another Sassafras Las PP for the cutesy kiddos. TFL!

now, really really need to hit the sack….. Zzzzzzzzz Sweet dreams
