The Star Duo

T-shirts bought during my bro's business trip to Vietnam. One of the few clothings which each of them have.

My hubby took this pictures while I was at work. It is so difficult to take their pics. One of them will either move away, look away or start pushing each other off.... Heh.

See.... In the second pic, Meimei trying to brush off Ah Ger's hand while she is trying to get Meimei to stand still.

Used 3 stamps on the layout. Mummy's little monster (which I added 'S' to it), Know This and Best Day Ever.

I'm trying to finish my old alphas before buying new ones. But it's missing a few letters so, instead, I used the negative and painted with crackle paint for added texture. Applied stickles after the paint get dried to give it a shiny look.


Materials:

Patterned Papers: Basic Grey, My Little Shoebox

Alphas: AC Thickers, Heidi Swapp, Adornit
Stamps: Unity Stamp, Studio Calico, Catslife Press

Others: Jenni Bowlin, AC Embossing Powder, Ranger Distress crackle paint, Ikandee twine, Maya Road sheer & chipboard, plastic eyes, Prima Rubons

Thanks for looking!

Bliss

Here is a layout I've done in one of the classes (conducted by MWL). The class taught us how to create beautiful background ( like mine!... Hehe) using paint dabbers and metal foils to create the frame and the title too!

This is an old picture taken for my wedding album. Love the pic so much.... sigh... look at my waist..... sigh... Heh


A close up pic of the LO. I added some embellishments to it too.

To and Fro

We had decided to move back to my parents' house (aka my brother's house) last weekend. The girls are growing up and at their ages, they are at their most active and naughtiest.... At least, my parents can both help to look after my girls and at the same time, supervise
my domestic helper. Wouldn't go into details what she has been up to while we aren't looking. Not that she is bad, it's just that.... let's just say she dotes on Meimei more than Ah Ger.

It's a little squeezy at my parents' house ( with 7 adults and 3 kids) but at least my helper can't complain that she can't cope at all. Cooking is done by my mum.

Ok... don't wanna talk about it anymore. Here is my latest LO. It's been sitting on my table for quite sometime now. It's Meimei's birthday party! Isn't the cake a cutie? The kids love the bees sooo much.... We decided to make it a small affair. Just some close family members. Too tired to entertain guests and the cleaning up part..... Heh..
