This is one of the reasons why I've been on hiatus the past few weeks:
I hope to meet a lot of new people there who share my love for scrapbooking, crafting and paper products... and I hope to be able to move some of my stuff too... space is starting to be a problem hereabouts :)
Another reason is my sister's upcoming wedding! Yet another reason is work, but I don't want to talk about that on this blog.
See you on November 19!
A Casual Scrapper
My sometimes-serious attempts at scrapping/crafting, if I have free time, that is.

smile with yellow flowers
Here's a yellow card based on this inspiration pic from Lil Red Wagon:
It just so happened that Sentimental Sundays also had their Challenge #79 - Birth Flowers and mine is Marigold. Here is a card inspired by this.
Patterned papers from K&Co. Paper flowers and flower clip from AAS. Bling from National Bookstore's crafts section.
The sketch is from CPS #242.
This is also entered for 365 Cards' Day 239 - Celebrating the Everyday.

one of a kind
I love the flocking for the sentiment, which is a result of this We R Memory Keepers set I got on sale (should be the subject of a different post). All papers from DCWV. Ribbon from AAS.
The challenge for 365 Cards' Day 234 - Opposite Day was First think about how you would describe yourself - all the different aspects of your personality. Second, use that description to create a card that is the OPPOSITE of how you would describe yourself. I describe myself as simple, transparent, no-frills with a streak of darkness in my soul (!). This card seems show quite the opposite of those traits--frilly, layered, bright. And seriously pink.
Here's the flocking up close:
I got the sketch from The Sweet Stop, as well as the theme, "pink":
Also entered for:
Top Tip Tuesday's Layer It Challenge
Lexi's Creations Challenge 51 - Just a Sentiment
Totally Papercrafts Challenge #89 Layer upon Layer
Looking at that close-up pick of the flocking, I really need, er, want to buy a new camera. I'm done with DSLRs for now--too bulky and expensive to maintain. I'm deciding between the Lumix LX-3, Lumix LX-5, Canon S95 or Canon S100. What do you think?
sorry in black and red
I've never had to make a card to say "sorry" before. Well, there's a first time for everything, but I hope I never have to use this. Hee. This is for Cute Card Thursday's Challenge 187 - Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word! For the design, I incorporated the challenges from 365 Cards' Day 231 - Staple It, Fussy and Fancy Challenge Says "3 B's!" (Black, Border Punch and Bling), and PaperPlay Challenges '11 - Week 42 - Use Black:
Black glittery cardstock from Prestige Paper. Silver paper from Star Paper. Ribbon from Wendy (a Divisora staple). Bling from Mark Richards. Staples are from the stapler in the house, hehe. Border punch from EK Success, flourish was cut using MM Slice.
Here is the stapled-ribbon embellishment and the bling up close.
