About Me

My photo
I live life as it comes, I'm scared to take risks, I'm a happy wife to a hunky husband, a mom to our pup samsam, a quiet but sometimes grumpy employee, a doll to my friends and a woman who is still figuring out what's her real purpose in life.

Create to Impress!

I thought long & hard on how I will design my first card. I read several articles from magazines, watched videos on YouTube & browsed scrapbooking blogs. It's not as easy as I thought it'd be.

Armed with scissors, cardstocks, glue, ruler & of course determination, I cut, trimmed, punched, aligned & styled the papers. Slowly but surely, I paste all the pieces together & finished it off with a pretty ribbon, the result... Tada!


I ran upstairs to show the card to mom and as expected she was very impressed! I was so proud I couldn't stop bragging about it! Lol. No one really knew from my family & friends that I love to scrapbook, back then I didn't have the money (& I hid the one’s I made and received because they were previously from a high school fling). But overall scrapbooking is an expensive hobby!
Mom then surprised me; she gave me her debit card and told me to buy the stuffs I need. Omg! She just paid more than half of my Louis Vuitton bag a month ago! I was jumping for joy, well, sort of ;)

I headed down to Michaels the following day & bought a bunch of materials.

Moms are simply the best (sometimes) haha... & btw, future hubby gained himself an artsy-craftsy fiancée ;)
