The Tattered Angels stencils and glimmer mists I bought about a month ago are just dying to be used (they're sitting idly on my little scrap table gathering dust).<br /><br />I also miss a lot of things. I miss this li'l boy here and his sweet mom (Amy) who's now a certified SAHM in Michigan. And of course, I miss scrapping.<br /><br />What have I been up to? I went to a couple of summer outings this June (not surprising), so my weekends were fully booked. And when I got back, I got "addicted" - curses to mangafox and iphone apps! I've been holed up in our room reading free scanlations til 2AM. And while waiting for the pages to load I sneak in playing <em>Farm Story</em>, <em>We Rule</em>, <em>God Finger</em>, <em>Tap Farm</em>, <em>Tap Fish</em>, <em>Tap Store</em>, <em>Tap Resort </em>(now there's even a Tap Bird!), and <em>Zombie Farm</em> ALL AT THE SAME TIME.<br /><br />And some things I don't miss, are things I haven't even done... things on the backburner I haven't come around to doing. So today's the day - I'm starting to train for a 5K marathon. =P Lots of people are running and joining marathons, getting fit in the process and having tons of fun. I'm also going to rekindle my love for drawing and going with a bunch of friends to a studio to sketch. Nothing serious, it's not even a class - just sketching a model.<br /><br />Hopefully, in the middle of all this, I can still do a page or two for challenges. =)Chipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-51556255456474904762010-04-27T00:14:00.004+08:002010-04-27T00:23:12.704+08:00monday blues...Just sharing a few layouts on a blue monday morning (started out raining). This first one is bright and sunny (I really love yellow on layouts), where you see the fleece American Crafts embellies I just couldn't resist buying (my wallet was supposed to be on strike buy I coaxed a few bucks out of it).

The girls made our 3rd Anniversary extra special with the challenge (we all loved borrowing Marix' stencils and mists, as well as stamping and embossing with her beautiful stamps!). I also loved all the games which got us on our feet before the long sit-down to do our layouts. I'm especially fond of the the "hep hep hurray" game, hee hee. =D And the musical chairs and "<em>pabitin</em>" was a wonderful treat.

I have a decent scrap tote. Just bought it from the LSS and was very pleased with how it looked and felt. I think it's an old design because I can't find a decent picture of it anywhere on the web. Basically it's shaped like the tote bag on the left (with light brown leather handles) but the pattern is the same as the small craft bag on the right.<br /><br />I've been organizing my stuff to fit in the bag (for the April 10 scrapmeet with the girls) but alas only my papers and thickers would fit. =( I really have to figure out which papers to bring.<br /><br />That or bring a smaller bag for the embellies and stuff.Chipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-39769544841097912192010-03-18T02:09:00.010+08:002010-03-18T03:08:48.350+08:00greens and yellows3 more layouts!

And yes, I haven't done my Christmas shopping yet. A lot of events we went to (and still to go to) this month and they all contributed to the general good cheer and holiday spirit. Loved our Christmas Scrapmeet, Office Party (Retro 70's!), and celebrated a few birthdays with colleagues and friends (night out at a pub and a slumber party)... wish it was December all year round! LOL. =P<br /><br />I made this calendar at the office coz I was really inspired by Webster's Pages and Graphic 45. I just wish work would let up so we can really feel the spirit of the season.<br /><br />Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas! =DChipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-17231963241906118952009-11-08T10:03:00.007+08:002010-03-18T03:11:11.790+08:00Of Yoghurts and SwimmingSooo, I'm updating for some of the pages I've done on the last Scrappersatsg scrapmeet (too bad a lot of the girls weren't there, we missed you!).

Better late than never I always say. This one's based on <em>Valerie Salmon's</em> work "You & Me" on the Feb/March 2009 issue of Scrapbooks Etc. We gave our colleague Ren a surprise baby shower today at the office and she was totally caught off guard. Everyone had a great time. I managed to bring my mom and Jillian as well. Too bad Jill wanted to go home before all the games ended, but still it was tons of fun!<br /><br />Can't wait for tomorrow's scrapmeet!

I was waiting for the sun to come out these past few weeks and just my luck that it's been raining (hard) the past month.<br /><br />I made this a couple of weeks before the typhoon struck the Philippines. My <em>tito's</em> family wasn't spared (they live in Pasig and the first floor of their 2-storey house was completely flooded). Thank God there wasn't much damage to our house in Nova. I was totally surprised about what happened in Makati though. =(<br /><br />I thought our only problem would be work but guess a lot of other stuff seem to come out from the woodwork... that's life.Chipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-158114046657096022009-09-23T00:01:00.006+08:002010-03-18T22:54:15.626+08:00The Last Challenge<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMJ0y__HVia6pzEIs2hsBNbMx0tlM6uPjicIFsNWWYw3HIfJbQktfy78oU-Qzv0UdKkTXHjS6etDr4Zen7SsoWqQ0X1P51ApJQDQ25OHWIRWcTSzm07CsT65hB5zcJpXRA4MzFiw6Kr0M/s1600-h/Carefree+Me.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 608px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 617px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384323339044174770" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMJ0y__HVia6pzEIs2hsBNbMx0tlM6uPjicIFsNWWYw3HIfJbQktfy78oU-Qzv0UdKkTXHjS6etDr4Zen7SsoWqQ0X1P51ApJQDQ25OHWIRWcTSzm07CsT65hB5zcJpXRA4MzFiw6Kr0M/s400/Carefree+Me.jpg" /></a>Scrapbook Challenges - August Challenge<br />"carefree me"<br /><br />A definite sign of my slipping scrapping mojo (I can barely keep my blog updated!).

Woohoo! =D<br /><br />I sure am missing the group and hopefully I can still post a page or two (or more!) if time permits.

I was *positive* I'd get a few layouts done but nooo, my mojo was nowhere to be found. I'm seeing a pattern here... I don't scrap a month or so, and then when I do start the pages just come out 1-2-3. Then I get to the 5th or 6th page then after that I totally can't make the next one. So frustrating!<br /><br />So now, I'm blog-hopping to get more ideas and I stumbled on this yummy blog candy from <a href="http://stampingsharing.blogspot.com/2009/08/thank-you-blog-candy.html">Stephanie</a>:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Hc1pXZm6FYS1hc00R1aY8jd2qClLiZNt8WJho72zbWJOmXZG12kl-oMqwJ61g08E9VRstJV-mEK-HV5N3nR4shur1Z-sGZi7sCANFDD-FO-MbalFJSTOO8rm4W7XhL7DEwibgURssTQ/s1600-h/Blog+Candy+(Steph)"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 270px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5375275981411480370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Hc1pXZm6FYS1hc00R1aY8jd2qClLiZNt8WJho72zbWJOmXZG12kl-oMqwJ61g08E9VRstJV-mEK-HV5N3nR4shur1Z-sGZi7sCANFDD-FO-MbalFJSTOO8rm4W7XhL7DEwibgURssTQ/s400/Blog+Candy+(Steph)" /></a>It ends on Tues.

It started out quite different (different PPs though the pink color is kind of the same). It's a bit of a stretch from the original sketch, but I just couldn't help making a layout for this photo of Kayla.<br /><br />I'm gonna enter this on the {Create} challenge as well due to the paper-pieced li'l Japanese girl (At last, I did a layout with one!).Chipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-26681384667296405602009-08-12T21:59:00.003+08:002010-03-18T22:56:17.236+08:00I See You!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaCpiUkKf-OacrJ6k3uPkE8xAzAG0raCCVdGZL3wZJ3tWYhQxQuDjJmtdEQ9NoCCpw_VLZNsPGwjmT8aGtAY8tqcZ5tjJsXu-0B1HPdq1haOKKWne2vqkiHfPpQZVFpnSJXXm3x5ZB3VQ/s1600-h/i+see+you.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 608px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 617px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369076847500959410" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaCpiUkKf-OacrJ6k3uPkE8xAzAG0raCCVdGZL3wZJ3tWYhQxQuDjJmtdEQ9NoCCpw_VLZNsPGwjmT8aGtAY8tqcZ5tjJsXu-0B1HPdq1haOKKWne2vqkiHfPpQZVFpnSJXXm3x5ZB3VQ/s400/i+see+you.jpg" /></a>July 2009 PageMaps<br />"i see you!"<br /><br />Something different! Yep, tried my hand at one of the sketches in PageMaps and this was what I came up with. Mr. Sun wasn't shining as brightly so I didn't get a really nice photo of the layout (the colors are a bit lighter in real life).

The title says it all... =D I wish I'd done some journalling on this but I didn't know where to put it. I was a little put off by the stitching here (which is awful) and I wish there was a better way I could've done it (maybe I should've used string? Same as the knots on top of the red polka-dot border).<br /><br />I added the white "pompom" ribbons on friday when I visited MWL and bought (yet again!) more stash. I'm wishing I bought more than 1 meter each of those (I got them in green, black, white and pink).<br /><br />Materials:<br />Bazzil Basics cardstock - White, GCD Studios <em>Paris Nights Collection </em>"Saint Martin", October Afternoon <em>Cherry Hill </em>"New Apron", October Afternoon "Egg Basket", Imaginisce <em>Twitterpated</em> "Critter Chatter", Pebbles Inc <em>Basics "</em>Red Flower/Dot", Maya Road "Birds of a Feather" chipboard, American Crafts Thickers "By the Yard", Icicle SticklesChipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-37938002242660231722009-08-03T00:46:00.006+08:002010-03-18T23:12:50.256+08:00Vintage<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRBUEL84QUR-erbpmoMiUyt6l1zsEWmD3jeymtNFDX5R2W2qMxuLr4hW7ao9piYawUvE7doL66zLkPUrppPNdOozUKQGKPtlNEYI7NByZ0xQsPhEQzx8PNquW2CoCOg81okXiIVV6Ows/s1600-h/us.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 608px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 612px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365408900543165010" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRBUEL84QUR-erbpmoMiUyt6l1zsEWmD3jeymtNFDX5R2W2qMxuLr4hW7ao9piYawUvE7doL66zLkPUrppPNdOozUKQGKPtlNEYI7NByZ0xQsPhEQzx8PNquW2CoCOg81okXiIVV6Ows/s400/us.jpg" /></a><br />"...us"<br /><br />My first attempt at a kind of "vintage" look. I don't know if the camera setting was too bright but the photo I took of this layout doesn't capture as much of the distressed (or "old") look I was going for. The bling doesn't stand out as well. The Prima flowers I used are so pretty, I bought another (small) pouch which I used in another layout which I can't finish coz I'm trying to find those Prima pearl flourishes which sadly, I think, may be out of stock at the LSS here. As for the flowers, I bought 4 small pouches just today (different styles of course) and was trying to find more of those really pretty ones but I can't find 'em! *sigh*. I think I'm gonna have to shop online for those.<br /><br />Materials:<br />My Mind's Eye <em>The Spider's Web</em> "Haunted Parlor" paper, KI Memories <em>Pop Culture "</em>Hopscotch Black", K&Co Brianna Floral Collage flat paper, Webster's Pages <em>Sweet as Cherry Pie</em> "...Fly a Kite", Prima Say it in crystals, Prima Gallery Roses Rousseau, Hamby Journalling bits, K&Co Grand Adhesions, My Mind's Eye Flirty "Play" mini die cut, Basic Grey Olio rub-ons, Icicle Stickles, Versa Magic - Cloud White, Dew Drop Brilliance - Graphite Black, American Crafts Thickers "By the Yard", Cosmo Cricket Fleuriste cardstock stickersChipmunkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18111567015903316752noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459491156810417685.post-78272320371650280652009-07-27T22:31:00.007+08:002010-03-18T23:14:32.860+08:00Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch 154<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2UQLY0wKDszpIX0wzCOyrDikpz7jDHLSxi3loLWK-TsS3br2kd8LWoyxYhuocm9IsHMZTAB1ASz8FWM3mwozRLu1GXLn9aTiXz79NrnSv5Fg_-bNvLW2UUYncUv9zsAwQZ17H6MHMLOE/s1600-h/Sketch154SC.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 608px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 579px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363148083133354274" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2UQLY0wKDszpIX0wzCOyrDikpz7jDHLSxi3loLWK-TsS3br2kd8LWoyxYhuocm9IsHMZTAB1ASz8FWM3mwozRLu1GXLn9aTiXz79NrnSv5Fg_-bNvLW2UUYncUv9zsAwQZ17H6MHMLOE/s400/Sketch154SC.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJTX0zmYlT_NrlwnajoEH8gl7wc1ciTWH5P46jsI21ES5mKtlXWyOHSfEVEo_UlftmQjwCWPKiSCFYcZD9dzcsY_jki35AkYVe45DA2M-WjHvr9Dcb6_dleIEm-kU6-NY4hbBhP-sgtho/s1600-h/Sketch-154.jpg"></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-mtAsu0o_PAcRmOceewOeTXD_dEnEDTbVnemrGymnI_US_oPigxgyG_Tfn4rQvCAeFXL04pggC_gyrc39b4igH_zbAqWZmyQnrs9OdbsS3XxPRTp13LLDL_Q73Q7UvncKKYKgKVjrtgI/s1600-h/family.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 608px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 616px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363147678350695650" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-mtAsu0o_PAcRmOceewOeTXD_dEnEDTbVnemrGymnI_US_oPigxgyG_Tfn4rQvCAeFXL04pggC_gyrc39b4igH_zbAqWZmyQnrs9OdbsS3XxPRTp13LLDL_Q73Q7UvncKKYKgKVjrtgI/s400/family.jpg" /></a><br />Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch 154<br />"family"<br /><br />Catching up, catching up! =D Sketch 155 is in the works as we speak (just putting some finishing touches). Hope I can squeeze in a layout or two so my July posts don't seem so dismal. Though, on hindsight, this July was anything but dismal - it was actually quite wonderful. =)<br /><br />Forgot to mention we watched the 6th Harry Potter movie and was not disappointed. It was pretty good and surprisingly funny, and the delivery of most of the scenes appeared "sincere" (not being a movie critic here, just that it's refreshing to see acting from kids that don't totally look 'forced').<br /><br />P.S. This layout is one of the many queued up for me, it's for a friend of mine (ex-office colleague) and her new family. Sweet Bettina looks so lovable with her doting parents - the little photo makes her look like she's wearing a wig.

I'm sooo going back this week to stock up on more stuff (and also because they've got a lot of stuff on promotion). When will the sale end?! I can't help myself!<br /><br />Transformers was fun! It lifted my mood (a bit) since my sisters won't be coming here this weekend after all. We're really scared of the A(H1N1) flu and don't want to take a chance on infecting DD. I've heard the vaccine's already available but not sure if it's only in the U.S. or here in Singapore; we're still thinking that my sisters could possibly just wear N95 face masks and take a bath immediately after getting home (mom hasn't cancelled the plane tickets yet eventhough we talked about it last week). I'm not re-scheduling my leave either so whether they come here or not I'm gonna have a week off of quality time to spend with DH/DD and most probably a LOT of scrapping done. CAN'T WAIT!<br /><br />Got a few more layouts done too.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjqC57zcKOuymTtA80gBcq40pnpLzjxWUrqE1PQvPmYpRFMoEf0fNwbe7k5VMpfdML8xYSth38_Qe56y-QMr9jWKPGZju2oS1ty8vk7Qlv8Cn8_e_bLJqkML6hDltdD-7IXvD2lkdBUg/s1600-h/sketch25p001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352238513586876370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjqC57zcKOuymTtA80gBcq40pnpLzjxWUrqE1PQvPmYpRFMoEf0fNwbe7k5VMpfdML8xYSth38_Qe56y-QMr9jWKPGZju2oS1ty8vk7Qlv8Cn8_e_bLJqkML6hDltdD-7IXvD2lkdBUg/s400/sketch25p001.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMoew6TwoR3nLEJHjPH4iJeGRRCpmzk80PMuSI2ROFqLl7UMvNnxiOCVHUbq4N9XCkK1bup2Zn10NvEbDXRDuTFZiaxA-hBtWqImlXTedQiiYDv013OnAb9WPFFBxuUzfRLhLwwjCTXVY/s1600-h/Dad+%26+Me.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 398px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352238510591658498" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMoew6TwoR3nLEJHjPH4iJeGRRCpmzk80PMuSI2ROFqLl7UMvNnxiOCVHUbq4N9XCkK1bup2Zn10NvEbDXRDuTFZiaxA-hBtWqImlXTedQiiYDv013OnAb9WPFFBxuUzfRLhLwwjCTXVY/s400/Dad+%26+Me.jpg" /></a><em>52 Sketches 52 Weeks - Sketch 25</em><br /><strong>"Dad & Me"</strong><br /><br />A belated Father's Day layout I made for 52 Sketches using Webster's Pages.
