smallest of them all

 smallest of them all, was so 2009! I'm beginning to see everything in red and white and maybe green.. yes, the Christmas colours. I'm also sorting out my scraps in the drawers separating the colours of patterned papers and cardstocks. Boy, there's lots to do.

 So, here is something I put together all scraps nothing new except for the Hambly patterned paper and the Jenni Bowlin Star Banner Stickers.

Let's see how many more Christmas inspired colours can I whip up as scrapbook pages.

Layout # who's counting?

@ 2.5 Months layout

Yes, Nasha weighs 7 ish kgs @ not even 3 months! We'll wait 'til our next visit to see how much weight she's put on in a month. On average, babies put no more than 1.5kgs but at the rate Nasha's going, she's putting on 1kg in 2 weeks! Sigh, it must be the 'healthy cow's milk', my sister puts it.

Oh well, if it doesn't bother her, it doesn't bother me.. LoL.

Stash: American Crafts Patterned Papers, German Scrap white borders, Jenni Bowlin green button.

Goal layout

Ariff and Omar recently started football in Little League. They are having so much fun, finally the boys are doing something together every week.  I'm using up my stash again this time, Fancy Pants Patterned Papers Father's Day Kit.

As I am never quite a sewing machine person, let's just say the stitching is intentional but not the trail of holes made by the machine. I like the messy look of it all and I would definitely do it again. Dina Wakeley, one of my fav celeb scrapbook artist, does this on her pages too. Check her out!

Baby Tiger layout

Tiger Year. 2010. My Baby Tiger. I say she's fierce, she gets what she wants when she wants it. When she roars, I jumped onto my two feet. Yes, she is a baby Tiger. Roar.. but when she is asleep, she is calmness and cuteness..

Doilies on Hambly's Doily Patterned Paper. Looking absolutely fab, grey on white, transparent overlay on white is absolutely fab! Hey simple is simple but I think the picture says it all. When its a good picture I tend to do less on the page but when its not a great picture, simple is not the way to go. 

Oh those eyebrows just tells you that she's one fierce baby.. roar.. but I can tell you.. she won't bite** like what my kids would say.. what is she gonna do? GUM us to death?~quoted from a Dinosaur animation movie.

19 Folds layout

 I counted, there are 19 folds. This is a layout about Nasha have 19 folds. She is now 7kg barely 3 months! Yes, she is my little bundle of joy or perhaps a bundle of folds. I counted just the other day, from her neck to the hands, thighs, tummy.. she has 19 folds.

Ok, so now I'm loving the little details. The little details that makes me happy. The little details that says it all. My favourite little details are now lace, lace, lace. American Craft's felt alphabets are perfect on lace. It not only creates texture to just paper but it adds the cosyness of it all.

Martha Stewart's butterfly is must have. If you don't already own one, go head out and get one! It is a definite definite must have. I also think the little alphabet stickers should also be in your basket if you have not tried using them on your layout. Mixing bigger fonts with smaller are the key to your layout. Play with different sizes of alphabets to complete your layout, not only does it help to highlight the important words, also it creates interest to the layout.
