12 Days of Christmas: A Gift for Dionne

Two gifts actually :) A Christmas tag and a bottle cap dragon! Isn't the dragon absolutely lovely?!! I didn't make the bottle cap dragon though, got it from a talented crafter on etsy, justJB.



Even the write up on the story of the dragonlet is cute!

"Such adorable creatures - bet you didn't know they made dragons this small, eh? At this size, it's difficult for a critter to make a home even out of branches and twigs - those are huge to an inch-high critter! So they make do with what they can scavenge.

This dragonlet has gone a step above its bottle-cap-nesting brethren and has tried to hide itself with scraps of trash. It has covered itself in various watch cogs and gears, and little metal plates, and even found a little watch winder to decorate itself with, in hopes you will look him over and think he is just some discarded refuse. He is so tiny, he is terribly nervous about humans!

He's hoping you will either look right past him, or give him a very safe place to call home!"

Take good care of him will ya Dionne! Merry Christmas!

12 Days of Christmas: A Gift for Tash

A card for Tash :)

Tash hasn't had a very good year. She has been down for a bit. Hopefully this card will cheer her up a bit. Making this card made me smile, so hopefully, by receiving it, she'll smile too! Merry Christmas and Happy 2012 Tash!

12 Days of Christmas: A Gift for Teri

Teri gets something more elaborated. Cos apart from it being a Christmas gift, it is also a wedding gift! Congrats babe!

This is gonna be her table display at the gust sign in table. Photos courtesy of the very talented Brian Ho from thegaleria. Did I mention that he was my wedding photographer too!?!? :)

Surprise! It opens up!

And look at the gorgeous photo of Teri standing in the middle of a railway bridge. No danger there, it's a now defunct railway :)

12 Days of Christmas: A Gift for Julie

A wall hanging for Julie :)

When I made a 12x12 LO for Dionne's birthday some time ago, I captioned it, "A present for a dear friend, happy birthday!" And Julie commented, "I would like to be your dear friend, and have a birthday!!! ;) Stunning, as always!!!!"

Well Julie, I kept that in mind :) You are a dear friend and you most certainly don't need to wait till your birthday! Merry Christmas Julie!






p/s: Joy is mega cute! Eating snow and all haha!

12 Days of Christmas

It's Christmas Eve! Are you done with your christmas shopping yet? I sure hope you are... Well, I'm not, haha. Cos well... my baby has been hospitalized, AGAIN. But some "good" came outta it. Well, I didn't have time to shop for presents, and there's really nothing much to do in hospital, so I MADE some presents instead! Yup, lotsa scrappy goodness!

So from tomorrow onwards, i'll be starting a "12 Days of Christmas" series. I'll be sharing a scrappy present a day, presents that I made for some of my girl friends (the guys get non-scrappy stuff, they will just get their present late) and also some minis that I made but didn't post previously. That's to make up for the lack of blogging recently haha. I've been lagging behind when it comes to blogging, but I've still been creating! So I'll now give you 12 projects in one sitting! Hehe.

Watch for the posts starting tomorrow!

Round Round's Mothers' Day Present... TO ME!

Cute right!! My son's Mother's Day Present to me!

Haha ok OBVIOUSLY he didn't alter the whole frame! He just hand printed a red flower for me. This was in May in year. Then Jaz put together this gem for me :) Isn't it gorgeous?! I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

I guess this is extra meaningful to me. Cos it's the first tangible gift that I've received from my son :)

HAPPY THURSDAY!

Ok ok I know I know! I have not been blogging! But... I don't have time to! Am in the midst of my home renovation (I'll share photos alright once I'm done) and scrapbooking simply has to take a backseat.

But... I did manage to squeeze in like 30mins to decorate 2 baskets and pack bags and bags of GARRETT POPCORN (don't everyone love Garrett's!?) for the awesome folks in my office for what i proclaim to be HAPPY THURSDAY! And check out the "TAKE WHATEVER YOU NEED" slips hehe! Freedom, sex, love, strength or simply just GARRETT POPCORN!
