I don't think anyone wanna hear about how busy I was for the past 1 week or so.... Hehe... Despite loading the photos weeks ago, I still can't find to update my blog frequently..... think I will try scheduling my post in the future..

Here's Project Life Week 7


The insert that I put in was a Valentine's card made by Meimei at school.

Valentine's gift from hubby and patient...
Hubby's company trip to Bintan Club Med for team builing (Wish my workplace will send us there - but fact remain I can't swim and I'm scare of height)

Grocery delivery from NTUC. Take note of the cartons containing all the 1.5L of green tea... enough said.

Why do I scrapbooking?

A picture says a thousand word.


I'm a full time working mum with 2 young kids. I do not have a domestic helper to help me with my daily household chores but yet I have time to scrapbook?? Well.... because I don't go window shopping, I don't watch television show, my rest and relax time = time spend on scrapbooking. 

I love seeing my kids flipping through pages and pages of my layouts... and asking about the photos. I love to include my journaling and favorite quotes onto each layout.

So.... for those who has been asking me why do I scrap? Have time? Oh yes... I do... I MAKE time for it.

Thanks for dropping by!!

Project Life Week 6

One week after another, time passed so quickly and I can't believe it's already March.

For the past few days, weather had been quite erratic. One minute it was all sunny.. the next minute it started to rain.

I had just managed to get some time off to take photos of my project life week 6 to 8.

Here's Week 6.


 I include the "birth certificate" of Ah Ger's new toy ( I still don't have the habit to keep memorabilia from our daily life).

 

I kept the candles that we used for Ah Ger's birthday cake. When I told hubby that I was gonna keep it.... he gave me one of his bewildered and disbelief look.... Heh....
Love the look of typewrite fonts!

Thanks for looking!!

Creatively Yours Sketch #8

Did you try out Creatively Yours Sketch #7?

Here's Sketch #8


And here's my take.



Journaling:

When you are a mother,
you are never really alone in your thoughts.
A mother always has to think twice.
Once for herself and once for her child
- Sophia


Honestly, as what others had said, motherhood is not easy yet is so self-fulfilling.
A quote which I came across a few days ago,

At the end of your life,
you will never regret not having pass one more test,
not winning one more verdict, or not closing one more deal.
You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend,
a child, or a parent.

-- Barbara Bush

Oh so true.... Have a good day all!

Creatively Yours Sketch #7

My very 1st LO for Creatively Yours!

 Here's the sketch:
And here's my take!

We were waiting at the MRT station while Daddy went to NTUC to buy some stuff. As usual, the girls were posing and insisted me to take several shots of them goofing around..... hugging the pillar??!

This sketch is ideal if you have those scraps of patterned paper that you can't bear to part with.

Another close-up shot!

Go ahead and try the sketch. Link back to the blogsite!
