from the past week or so...

last saturday, my family went bowling at rtc again. i'm beginning to see that we are going there pretty regularly. hopefully as a result that will mean that my game would be getting better! haha! this time however, i decided to bring my scrap grab bag along. so while waiting for my turn, i did some scrapping! (: mom was doing her work too. i was doing some bookmarks for her as presents for the psg. i did 20 A6 notebooks and 20 4"x3" bookmarks. that was loads of fun, bowling and scrapping. i think i shall try doing this again. using the scrap grab bag more often. 
so here are the notebooks. i know its partially blocked. and the birthday card i did for mom! (: her birthday was 2 days ago. sherwin wrote in the card with me. he's at that stage where his drawings are really super cute. he did a hama beads glow-in-the-dark star for mom. so that she could wear it and glow in the dark as well. haha! and its mel's birthday today!
thats her birthday card. i'm quite obsessed with faux polaroids lately. i do want a polaroid camera, but polaroid has stopped production of film and all, so its quite pointless really. i wanted to get this other brand, that had instant photos as well. but i'm not too sure. because i know i WANT to polaroid rather than need it. its a matter of weighing the pros and cons. but at the moment, i'm staving off my desire for one by playing around with photoshop. i must say that its pretty satisfying. i think i might be able to live with faux polaroids! (:

i bought this earring stand for my mom last christmas. i think it holds more than 100 earrings. 150 thereabouts i think. but my mom has so many earrings that its not enough for this one stand! haha. i colour co-ordinated it for her. its pretty no? (:

speaking about beading, i'm getting back into the groove of it. i did 8 pairs last night. kept 4 for myself tho. i'm trying to be more daring in the colour combinations so that it won't be so monotone. still trying to define what is the "sheryl style" or "squiggletown style". but i think the tag line quite sums it up - whimsical, quirky, original. thats what i want. 

okay, shall stop the rant. leave you with this. my cappuccino from two days back. smile!

ttfn!
