It's a happy-doodah-day!!!

I received a really happy email late evening yesterday! I have been accepted into the Little Yellow Bicycle Cycling Team for their "Once Upon a Christmas" collection.... WOO HOO!!!! 

This is really exciting for me as I have not applied to be a part of any design teams for a while now.... It was a hiatus I had to take as I was busy with my craft business back in Malaysia (which I am re-starting  here.. handmade journals for the win!! haha). I was participating in quite a number of craft markets then and did not have the time to commit. But I am back and ! :D

This time around, I am striving for better time management so that I can apply to be a part of Design teams again and also make my journals and develop new items :)

I am so blessed to be chosen and be a part of Little Yellow Bicycle's Cycling Team... !! It's truly an honour!!! I can't wait to receive the items to play with!!

Check out their "Once Upon a Christmas" collection on their website now... they are so delicious and will be a wonderful collection for December Daily, 25 Days of Christmas projects or just cards or mini albums!

Hola

It's been a while since my last post... sorry, if you've been checking back here but I have been feeling rather tired lately. Maybe it's partly due to the heat as it has been really hot lately. This past week was rather good though with the weather cooling down a little. Weather forecast for next week is scorching again. 

Sharing this layout I made way back (sounds so long ago...) in July. I haven't scrapped much in August and just a smidge this month...

In Universal Studios, they have this giant backdrop with New York's landscape and it's really very 3D when we snapped a photo, doesn't it? 

 Have I mentioned how much I love glossy accent?

Love this little camera from EP's paper too... it makes a fun little embellishment!

Warning...

.... this post contains a LOT of pictures! :) 

It was Labors Day in the United States on the 3rd of Sept (in Malaysia, Labours' Day is on the 1st May) and the church organized a picnic in Tellefson Park in Culver City. I have not attended a BBQ 'western' style before and a day out with fresh air and friends is always good, so off we went! :)

 Food on the grill... there's burgers, sausages, chicken, steak... corn....

 The weather was lovely! Warm sun, cool breeze!

Kids playing...

Filling up their water guns!

 Having fun ....

 My hubby and Dominic won the Balloon Toss competition! woo hoo!! :)

 The ladies :)

 See how much fun the kids were having? hehe

 well, the adults had fun too!!! Jump!!

 They played American Football... Pastor got cornered! LOL...

Look at them go at it! :D

It was a super fun day... I totally enjoyed the sun and the breeze... but I got a bit ill during the night though... just felt generally unwell. Went to bed at 830pm and practically slept the whole of the next day too... maybe it's heat exhaustion but I am alright now... Lots of sleep helps! :D

Back from hiatus....

.... I hope. I know I have not been updating my blog for the last couple of weeks (or was it months, I lose track..) but I still have lots of scrapbook pages I have done that I want to share. I actually managed to fill up one Becky Higgins' album within 2 months and I've ordered another one.. lol. So, you can imagine how many more I have in store to share (if I am hardworking enough...).

As you can see, these are still the photos from the Universal Studios happy day back in June! :) Well, I have a lot of photos from that day to scrap :D

I love to add glossy accents to highlight certain embellishments :) I love that they pop a little and that makes me really happy!

Oh, I was out with my church folks on Labor's Day for a picnic at the park too... Photos and updates to follow :) It was a fun day out and it was my birthday too but no one knew :D Well, I just want to spend the day out in the sun with people I adore and it doesn't matter if they don't know :) I had fun and that's the most important thing :)

Organizing weekend!

Hubby drove us to IKEA over the weekend and he got me a shelf and a table :D Well, I was perfectly happy scrapping on the floor but he felt that sitting on the floor all day doing things is not good for me and when he suggested we go to IKEA, I said, 'lets!'

He assembled the rack and the table for me and I'm pleased as punch! Now, everything is neater.... I guess there's no more excuse not to scrap or do my artwork anymore :P

I wanted to show a picture of before (how I scrapped on the floor) but I guess I either forgot to take a picture previously or I had deleted them. Oh well, this is the after :) I've got myself a cozy little corner :)

p/s : I love the baby back ribs they have in their cafe now.... it's delish! And the fries are perfection too!
