MWL National Day Scrapbook Contest 2011


This is for MWL National Day Challenge.

You can go here, to find more about the contest.


Photo was taken at DH's cousin's wedding at Malaysia. Not the best picture... but at least it's complete..with me in it!

The frame behind the photo is a Sizzix die cut which I painted with Making Memories white acrylic paint, applied some glue and covered them with German glass glitter. Painstakingly, glue down each rhinestone because my i-rock melted the battery ... (not too sure what went wrong thou')

Bunched up flowers from Prima, Maya Road and some from own supply.

Lastly, my journaling note hidden inside the Maya Road Envelope which I applied some Rub-Ons and misted with some white Studio Calico.

Journaling:

Home is .....
built with love and dreams.
wherever my family is.
where I can find glowing, smiling faces greeting me after a long hard day at work.
where I can be myself.

Pencil Lines Sketch #249

Using Pencil Lines Sketch #249,

I just have to scrap this photo of Meimei and DH. The bond between them grew closer and closer ever since we let the domestic helper go. Tiring.. but worth it.

I misted the background using Tattered Angels and some wooden shaped embellishment (can't remember the manufacturer). Using some rub-ons from my stash, I 'altered' the chipboard alphas so that it won't look too plain. My journaling is in the Maya Road envelope .

Close-up of clustered embellishments....

Another close-up....

Thanks for looking!

Family Matters Most

Been hoarding this 7gypsies tray like... forever? I had another 6 compartments one to alter too....

Love how this turned out...and as what the title said... family matters most to me...

Was gonna pile lots of embellishments on it.. but I think.. it's quite enough right... Don't really like cluttered look either.

LOve the vibrant colors of the flowers!

Trying to use up my many collections of Maya Road chipboards!

See that small bunch of vintage millinery flowers? Isn't it sweet!!

Thanks for looking!
