A thought for Christmas November 28, 2007

Filed under: in the mood, scrapping time — tourmaline @ 9:46 am

Suddenly I’m thinking to make Christmas cards for some of my blogger friends. Don’t know why but definitely card making take up lesser time compare to scrapbooking.

Need to use up those extra little paper scrap from scrapbooking otherwise they will sit long enough in my stash and I still have no idea what to do with them. Maybe making cards will help me to get rid most of them as I find that there’s no space to store them for long.

My daughter is interested whenever she saw her mummy sitting at the table “playing” with scissors and papers. She sure will request to sit on my laps and look at my work. When she saw her photos, she will shout out loud: “Baby!” I can’t keep her long with me as she’s disturbing my work and that will cause me to spend even longer time to finish my LO. 

Last weekend I was doing some paper craft to be included in her existing LO with theme garden. To be exact, to upgrade from 9×9 to 12×12 because I thought I will do 9×9 album first. Not really garden-like but it’s a LO with lots of flowers and a butterfly. I handcut one butterfly from the solid colour paper and cut one for my daughter too. I showed her and she was happy with the paper butterfly shape and she kept on saying “fly, fly!” Pushed her to show off her new fly fly to daddy and off she went. So, I got some more time to finish off the rest. Still don’t get the bling crystal sticker to beautify the butterfly yet. Need to do a quick shopping within these few days.

Who knows I may have some item back for Christmas cards too…

This LO was completed 2 weeks ago, I’m just lazy to upload. Anyway, here is it ~ another 12×12 LO that I used inking, paper scraps, ribbons. I think I secured the ribbon with glue dots.

Decided to proceed with 12×12 layout November 11, 2007

Filed under: in the mood, layout, scrapping time — tourmaline @ 9:09 pm

Oh yeah… after much struggle and consideration… I can’t help but decided to put a few of beautiful photos in one LO for keepsake. And I was surprised that I’m able to finish 3 LO, yes all in 12×12 size in a day! Maybe because my girl is not around so I can concentrate to scrap from afternoon till night! That’s a record breaker for me.

Challenge – First Birthday Card November 8, 2007

I did this card for a local birthday card challenge. A very simple one but I used almost 3 hours to complete!!! I used cut-outs from pattern paper and brochures. I use glue dots on sequins and trace around the sequins with gel pen. The tricky part must be tying the ribbons. Ok… maybe I’m not so familiar with ribbons yet.

 Well, when I think back actually not that long because the first 1 & 1/2 hours I was busy in tracing and cutting pretty prints and fonts from wedding invitation cards and brochures. Oh yes… I support recycle very much and there are really pretty stuff from those commercial cards which can be used as embellishment for scrapbooking.

This is  the dining table which transformed into my scrap place at one night.  Was scrapping a birthday card for local sb’s challenge. Imagine I got to mess the table then after I finished got to clean and keep everything into place. I’m just too hard-working, isn’t it? No choice because no scrap area at home. Been thinking where shall be my next scrapping place?
