Christmas 3D Display

For someone who doesn't celebrate Chritmas, i'm actually enjoying creating crafts for this festive season. The christmas papers are so beautiful and i really find myself falling for the papers even i have no matching pictures! When i got my DT kit from Nikki Sivils...i was so excited to see the colors and designs. Like i mentioned before the papers are so bright and lovely. Today i was having fun creating a 3D display by mixing Nikki's North Pole Nights Collection and some collections from Little Yellow Bicycle and also Mistletoe from Making Memories.

Items used:

Nikki Sivils North Pole Nights - Cutie Cut Ups
Nikki Sivils Complete Collection of North Pole Nights
Making Memories Icon Dot Mistletoe Paper
Little Yelow Bicycle Christmas Magic Cardstock Stickers
Jessejames Beads - Sew Thru Snowflakes
Various Clear Stamps

2 layouts and i'm done for today

I was up since 5am and been scrapping all morning. Call me crazy but i was out from my scrapbooking world for the past 10 days since the kids got sick. But now they are better and i just can't wait to get started. A little bird told me that MME is having a great challenge over at their blog. It is based on a sketch and participants are required to used at least 80% of their products. My latest purchase was few papers from MME so i thought i just give it a shot. This is my take.

Since my kids got sick i spend most of time at my mom's house. I had a chance to look thru some old stuff and i found a picture of me and brother. I think i was about 3-4 years old. I must say that he has been a good brother. I always get whatever i want since i was little and there is no slight jealous in him. He will always give ways and sacrifice so much for me. I know i never say this....i do love u k...hehehe. I decided to use the Scarlet Lime Kit - October Collection. The colors are just awesome and i really fell in love with the kit!

What's happening @ Scrap The Boys

I think this is the coolest challenge i ever done. I had so much fun creating the LO. Susan @ Scrap The Boys has asked us take inspiration from the children ryhme... Frankly this is the first time i created such LO based on a rhyme and also using cheerful colors. I'm quite happy how it turns out.

What are little boys made of?

Frogs and snails

and puppy-dogs tails...

How To Define Beauty?

My angel is now 2 months old and she looks beautiful every single day! That is so hard to believe. She is just an amazing baby! Her world is now full of smiles, holding up her head, and started drooling a little bit. She's now weighing 5.1kg ... good signs that she is growing well. She sleeps well at night and only wakes up for about 2 times. Her smiles really melt my heart. She has a big smile especially after leaving her for few hours with my mom or maid....the moment she sees me....that smile will just make my day. She makes lot of noises and coos. She can lift her head a little and chest up while lying in her stomach. The best thing is when she looks at you as if she knows what’s going on. My tiny little baby is now paying more attention to this world.

My christmas starts in August

I received an email saying that is ok to use the latest Christmas collection from Nikki Sivils. The problem is i do not celebrate them and i don't have any related pictures at all. Something came up to my mind and i twist it a little bit and holla....this is what came out from me...

The papers are really different from the usual Christmas papers i see. Colors are very bright....and are sooo cute. I fall in love with the little elf!

I also did anothert layout of Zharif. Its been a while since i did techniques layout. I love the this color combo...the teal and brown...it looks really nice when you put everything together. It blends really well.


Have a good weekend...TFL.

Sketches

Suddenly i'm in the mood of playing with some interesting sketches. The most appealing to me was Pencil Lines and Twisted Sketches. I think my mojo is back and it didn't take me long to finish this. Thanks to little Tihany was sleeping whole morning for me to complete this 2 LOs.

My take for Pencil Lines - Sketch #157

My take for Twisted Sketches - Sketch #020
