Sweet Love Layout

Hi there!! This month each of us Design Team members were told to pick out a favourite Doodlebug colour and create a project using it. I chose cupcake! and I think that colour was very well suited for this pic of my muffin drooling over a dessert table laden with tonnes of sweets at a recent Birthday party. 

I have aptly titled my layout Sweet Love for two reasons, her love for all things sweet and cause she's my sweet love lol! :)

Here's my layout, using the delicious colour cupcake!

Love Layout - Doodlebug's Kraft in Color Collection

Hello! hello! Today I'd like to share with you a layout made using the Kraft in Color collection that is part of Doodlebug Designs' winter release. The layout was put together using my trusted silhouette cameo, some stitching and of course the lovely sequins by Doodlebug! The sequins are pretty awesome! each bottle contains ombre coloured sequins and they are perfect! The papers with their coordinating patterns are great to work with too! 

What I did was to cut out the bubble like pattern that's used for the background, from my cameo. Then, the circles that were left behind were flipped over to reveal the coordinating pattern of the patterned paper I used for the bubbles. I then stuck them slightly away from the empty bubble to create more layers. I hope I'm not confusing you here lol!!

Prima February BAP Sketch Take

For many, many years, months..God knows..I've contemplated (umpteen times) to play along with Prima's BAP sketch. The sketches have always been very inviting..but I was either busy running behind the brats that I missed the due date or I simply forgot all about it. This time however, I decided that I will play along..and I am! lol!

Here's what I made..using Baby T's photos! yep, mummy's finally scrapping T's photos! and I hope I continue to play along at Prima's sketches..

I've used materials from the Delight and Lyric collection along with some other little embellishments / ephemeras by Pink Paislee & Kaisercraft, Chippie by Memory Maze and Spellbinders & Tim Holtz dies.

Hey there!! It's that time of the month again when Scrap-It-Lah reveals their challenge for the month and boy oh boy is it fun!! *lol*

The challenge is to create a mood board..and believe me, it was pretty challenging..but definitely fun cause this is my first ever mood board! I do believe I'll be experimenting more with this is in the long run!! :)

My take is based on my li l gurl A (as always hehe)...and the words are to depict her mood and my aspirations for her (hopefully they're hers to her when she grows up *lol)*..while the embellishments reflect her fav things like cycling (her baby bicycle of course *lol*), music, clouds, flowers, birds and balloons! yes my baby loves all things colourful! these are the things tht make her go 'woweee'. I promise you, she says that!

Well, do join us in the fun, I reckon you'll have a blast making your mood board! :)

Scrap-It-Lah February Challenge

Basic Grey's Curio patterned papers are to die for! don't ya agree??? I love that I can cut out all those little details and assemble them together to create a scenery...like wat I did here! :) I also tried something different, I distressed the edges of the photo and then used a blending tool to apply Ranger Distress Ink on the photo.

This is a pic of DH and I at our recent (well not so recent anymore *Lol*) holiday at Mauritius. It truly was paradise there and I'm glad the Curio papers enhance that picturesque moment beautifully. The only problem with the pic is...my hair! *lol*
