I stored away most of my inspiration stuff and put a new stuff here. The space wont be empty too long in fact by now I have put a few photos to scrap. Now this board will act as my page planner.

My work in progress, now I have a space for WIP and it was nicely display. I like!
Can you believe it was freebies from the internet? I’ll share the info about my wip in next post.

I promised myself not to keep my pp too long, instead I put it here for display and for me to scrap. No more feeling guilty to cut these lovely pp. Most of it from Fancy Pants Love Birds line. Love the color and cute design. One layout from this line has been created and will post the lo later.

{Inspiration}

Today with a cup of coffee I'm so excited hunting for a photo display ideas.
Oh I lied, rather than hunting for photo to display, I went to my studio and grab my  frame from Ikea and painted it. While waiting for the frame to dry why not I'm looking for some inspiration again *wink*
Love this idea from Domino Magazine via Apartment Therapy.



I love the flexibility in this idea. The corner of my tv area is a perfect for this spot.

Little one holding a flower to beautiful girl...While little girl surrounding by happy butterfly,bird,flowers
 I just drew simple flower and colored it.
I really love this circle turn out, my mind plan a simple one but it turn out really good (for my skill huhu). I added a butterfly for extra charm. I have a habit to ruin something beautiful sometimes....lol

My first layout for this year.
I’m glad I manage to slip into my studio and creating something despite my heavy schedule.


This layout is about my girls, their bonding as a sisters and the day the Ireen celebrating her 11th birthday. The birds element in this page is my favorite for this moment (yeah I know Im little behind in this sb trend but its okay I don’t mind to be left out)
As I scrap over the year I realised I tend to used bright colors. I think after hard day at work bright color boost my energy and creative juice.
Thanks for dropping by.
Xoxo

Greeting from Swiss Garden Kuantan.


The baby is taking her nap and I try to use this time to blogging. I hardly blog lately not because I lost my mojo but I lost control of my time. Workload is demanding and I need to prepare myself for next year changes and at the same time to standby my girl for upsr.
Today I want to share how I organize my digital photos. Here is how
I sorted by photos under year- occasion /person –date + simple note
And don’t forget to delete the duplicate photos and back up your file into cd/dvd/external hd.
extra tips - I used http://picasa.google.com/to jot my journal and label with star the outstanding pictures.





before I left, enjoy a few pics taken yesterday  (having issue with my image upload) and one lovely website I found this morning http://smallnotebook.org/ (dont miss this lovely site and i love it and make me stuck posting this blog lol)

Declutter

Fuh!
Sorting, rolling,cutting and clipping. That what I did since last night. Its because I cant stand anymore the clutter inside my studio. I started purge my ribbon and sort it nicely (nice in my own way).
Some I just leave it inside the roll and stand it using a chopstick, some I just roll into the ribbon organiser and put inside the basket. Seldom used ribbon I put inside the clear container.DSC_5178 copy
I'm thinking how many days these ribbons will stay organised because I dont trust myself. Im messy and visual scrapper, I cant handle hidden stuff.

Later, when the studio a bit clean (50%) I just sit and stamp these image and start playing with
Copic Marker.

Tomorrow I plan to wake up early (but now already 1.38am) and do some cleaning...but mmmmmm ....

How To Photograph Your Scrapbook Layouts Part II

I cant help myself to experiment straight away after saw so many tutorial about it.
Here is mine. I think I need more practice until I get perfect pictures. The pictures are straight away from camera , no cropping and no editing.


This is where I placed my layout....chaotic right. That's my life......

Yes, im back to scrap but not as before...I have to slow down. Thanks to my srappers sisters. They cure me!
