I'm very honoured to appear in Scrapbook News & Review Magazine under their Reader's Spotlight section. Here is the brief write up about the magazine which i took from their website.They are subscription based magazine and my layouts can be found here.

Scrapbook News & Review was conceived with the following in mind:

All styles, all genres and mixed media -- from beginner to advanced

Current trends and techniques to challenge creativity

Useful articles and layouts

A staff from across the globe with different styles and tastes

A place where all scrapbookers have a real chance of getting published

Our product is different for myriad reasons. First and foremost, we are customer-driven and reader-based. Our aim is to attract all genres and subjects. Scrapbook News & Review is article rich and reader friendly with in-depth, hard-hitting , non-pc information; it's photo heavy with lots of detailed layouts. Sections are broken down by style, skill level and technique.

Our job is to find the emotional connection and combine it with the logic of the message. The more truthfully and genuinely told, the more we'll connect with our readers. The more we connect with our readers, the stronger the industry becomes.

July Challenge - Scrap The Boys


I love this challenge!

You should try this.....Scrap The Boys is having their latest challenge...i pick this from their blog...

“Real Men (or Boys) don’t…”
Whether you have heard the saying or not I would like you to take inspiration from the saying “real men don’t eat quiche” for this months layout.

Basically I would like you to create a layout capturing your boys doing things that may be the most masculine…so a little bit on the "girly" side...you know maybe it is a secret thing for pink, them in some girly dress-ups, makeup, flowers in there hair… we all have those photos that you think “hmmm that will be a good one for their 21st birthday party…lol”

Anyway now is the time to drag them out and put them on paper…If you don’t have any photos maybe you could journal about it instead…document it before it is forgotten.
Criteria is to start your title with “real men (or boys) don’t….” (mind pink; look bad in heels…etc)

This is my take...a picture of Jason - my best friend's nephew wearing his sister's pink dress!

Thanks Tracy for giving me this picture. Am sure Jason will remember this for the rest of his life!

Shabby Chic Challenge # 1

I just found this blog and they have terrific challenge going on. You can visit their website here

This is the quote from their blog...

It's an INSPIRATIONAL challenge.

Soooooo glean from it what you love and present in a wonderful creation!

You MUST tell us on your blog what inspired your creation!!

I was actually inspired by this old movie, Mrs Brown...is a story about Queen Victoria, the world's most powerful woman and John Brown, a simple Scottish Highlander. Their extraordinary friendship transformed an empire. It was a 1997 movie.

I realised that i have a picture of me taken by my husband in QVB, Sydney. I was standing in front of Queen Victoria statue.

Victoria Street

I'm very happy that i've managed to come out from my comfort zone...i've no longer in my usual colors or patterm paper. Playing with this new line has expand my imagination. The line is called Victoria Street from Nikki Sivils...i just fall in love with the prints of the houses and colors...I was little afraid at first...not sure what will come out....but after a while - it is so easy to match with pictures that i have. I hope you like it too...

Giveaway Project

I find My Sweet Cherry Pie Line from Nikki Sivils is so fun to play with. The bright colors excites me and make me wanna create more projects. I decided that a packaging concept is more suitable for this kind of paper and here it is .... a small paper bag which are meant for cutie things. The bag will not be complete without the card....so i came out with a 6" x 6" Best Wishes Card to complement the packaging and voila...it is ready to be given away...hmm...i wonder who?
