3 Years Old


This week, Hiro is officially 3 years old! It just seems liked yesterday when he is still a puppy running around my bedroom. I really missed those moments. Once again, it shows how time flies and reminds me that I should take more photographs and video of things surrounding me!

Precious Memories Altered Book Stand


Today's project is an altered acrylic book stand which I've created for Chloe's bedroom sometime ago. I've used Clear Scraps 8" x8" acrylic book stand to create this. I'm so sorry for the glare in the picture above. I've to take it indoor with flourescent light due to the bad weather.

Here are some close-ups on it.



These flowers are sponsored by Kay's Kreative Korner etsy store.

Hope you all find this project inspiring!

Trying to look Cute!


This week, we managed to captured a picture of Hiro trying to act cute for me (his mom)...LOL! Isn't he the cutest in that picture? I'll definitely scrap it! This is such a wonderful Mother's Day gift!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY everyone! Recently, Chloe has been put to memorize a speech for her Parent's Day in school and I really love a sentence in it.

"Women, especially mothers, face new challenges in society today, but motherhood remains a lasting effect on us as individuals." We love you moms!

Cherish Today Tag

This is a very simple tag which I've created as the guest designer for Darkroom Door this month. The montage, keyhole, dragonfly and words stamps are by Darkroom Door.

I've also used some Dusty Attic chippies (Eiffel Tower and Paris postmark) and flowers on this tag. I've misted the chippies with some Shimmerz Paints. I've used a piece of acrylic sheet by Clear Scraps to create the background and the dargonfly.

Have a great weekend!
