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

A Little Late

I finally got a bit of time to clear all the spidwer webs around my blog. Hehe...ya ya ya its been a while. Is harder to find time to scrap nowadays. I'm always with the kids...busy running around the house. Tihany is still very colicky and the older brothers are always dying for attention. By the time the kids are in bed, my eyes are eyeing on my bed too. I was supposed to blog about the new challenge at Scrap the Boys , didn't have the chance to do it at all. I'm so sorry for the delay. It is based on the sketch below and its really up to you how you wanna interpret them. (colours, sketch, circles, surf inspired...whatever).

Here is my interpretation... a picture of me and my Mr Noodle.

Last week i found some old photos me and my closest friend in school back in 1990. I can't wait to scrap them but just managed to only scrap 1 layout. I am still in contact with some of them ...thanks to Facebook...but i'm still looking for the rest. Wonder what happen to them...how many kids they have....

This one is the LO i did for my DT work at Nikki Sivils. I actually used the Halloween line and mixed it with other pattern papers such as Sarafrass Lass and Crate Paper. I used the picture from last year Raya celebration ....and it is the best capture of this two inseparable people....Qawiem and his dad. Actually you can mixed whatever papers you have even though it is Halloween or Christmas. You can manipulate the papers and design it to your needs. Even if you don't celebrate them, if the papers are nice...grab it!
I did this LO this morning.... i was having my quiet time here in my scrapping room...the boys are at school and Tihany is with my mom. It is so difficult to snap picture of Zharif lately but i was so happy that i could snap picture of both of them last week. Even though Zharif was half naked..hehehe....its good enough. Told myself...i soooo need to scrap this.

Featured again.....

Can you believe it that is already Friday? Time flies so fast and we are now in the month of October. I'm actually excited when October comes. One of my layout has been featured in Scrapbook.com and Scrapjazz.com. I must thank Georgina Hoffman for this opportunity. This is the layout that has been featured. I've used the pictures of my superstar - Qawiem. Hehe...this is his concert pictures when he was at his old school....taken last year. I've used the Henry Brilliance line from Nikki Sivils. I still couldn't stop using those line....not just i am the DT but the papers are just versatile....it is so easy to match with any pictures.


You know...at first i was really afraid to use any Halloween line ....since i don't celebrate them. But after creating a few projects, i just love Halloween. I find myself looking for Halloween stuff and putting it into my wishlist.The colors combo, images, wordings are just a killer.

You should check out the new line called...Bootiful by Nikki Sivils ....really really great to play with. I love the cut ups and the papers are just oh so irresistible. This time I've created altered fun treat tin and cards.
