Scrapbook Workshop Book


It's time to share another little news again. Sometime in last December, the talented "May Flaum" had invited me to be part of her new book "Scrapbook Workshop". May had put together this awesome book with Memory Makers. I felt so honored to be part of this book together with so many other amazing and talented artists. Go to Amazon, if you would like to read a little more about the book.

Miracle News!! Hiro is Back!!


Today is a super miracle day for the whole family. We finally found Hiro after 16 days of him gone missing. A very kind lady had found him wandering in her area and took him in. Later, he had been given away to another person who is far from the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, the lady who had taken him in did not see any of our flyers or our posts online for Hiro's search.

But I guess all the prayers from Hiro's fans around the world had helped us. Hiro's grooming lady had saw his picture and informed us immediately about him. It took us a few days to track him and finally went and took him back today. 

We're really grateful to everyone who has helped us to find Hiro and those of you who had prayed for his return. A special thank you to those who had taken care of him while he's lost. 

We've taken him to his vet and after a full check on him, everything is fine except for some minor cuts and tons of ticks. From now on, our family is complete again with his return. Thank you so much!!

Always A Pup


As of today, there are still no news on Hiro. We missed him very much and will continue to pray that he comes back to us someday.

Today, I would like to share this layout of Hiro which I've created sometime ago using Swirlydoos April kit. I've also used tons of chippies from Dusty Attic, acrylic frame by Clear Scraps and stamps by Stamp Enjoy. I've also used some Shimmerz Paints to paint the acrylic and chipboard pieces.


Here are some details on it.

This acrylic buckle frame is by Clear Scraps. I've painted it with some Shimmerz Paints to add a little colours to it.


These are button chippies by Dusty Attic. I've cover them with pattern papers and crackle paints.




These stamps are by Stamp Enjoy.




This hinge is also by Dusty Attic which I've painted with some Shimmerz Paints too.



I've used some Hambly overlay and metal sheets to create these flowers. I've coloured the overlay with glass effect gel by Viva Decor.


Thank you so much to all of you who continue to pray for Hiro's safety and return. I will definitely blog if there is any news on him.

Butterfly Mini

This is a mini butterfly book which I've created using Clear Scraps acrylic mini butterfly album. This idea came to be when Chloe asked me about where does butterflies come from. I thought it would be a cute idea to use a fun acrylic butterfly mini to create a book to explain it to her.

Here are some of the pages in this mini book.



This is such a fun project and I hope you all would try it. Clear Scraps do have tons of other designs of these minis. I'm sure the different designs will inspire you all even more!
