My July Class!

Hi everyone! Thanks to those who attended my class on June! I'm glad all of you loved the layout! It's been fun teaching this month's class! I forgot to blog about this month's class! I have designed and will be teaching this class for the month! I'm sure most of you are gonna enjoy this class also! It's called 'Hey Dude' and there is a small story behind the name of this class! I'm sure the people who know this story is giggling right now!!! Haha, but the main point is that this class will be different with all the manly design! haha!

The sp!oosh brochure you see ust a simple project I helped S make for her uni project. My silhouette needs a new blade! So instead we actually cut out all the pieces for the brochure and it still look professional! This is me below actually which I wasn't aware she was taking a photo of me! This reminds me of all the fear and jitters I am getting for my 3 uni camps this month! I'm worried my brain won't start on me when the semester starts.
*fingers crossed*

Running.


Its been a long long time since I last ran! Like super duper long! I'm pretty tired up with work and stuffs so yea. partly because I have planned my time to run sufficiently and I lack of a running buddy. and so this year, I signed up for the most important 2 races I wanted to run and I missed. One of it is the passion run 21km which I had a wedding to attend and the other is the sundown 42km which i was totally unprepared for and unwilling to risk so i decided to actually miss it. I still remain skinny but I'm sure i will be able to keep up the running if I'm focus. So this year I got in the Army Half Marathon competitive team! which I'm pretty excited as all is nicely planned for me. I just have to attend the training. No need to think about where to run or have reminders to run every week. But yet, I almost forgot about the important race this year, the stand chart marathon! anyone interested to join me? 

Okay. time to focus a little bit on scrapbook. Haha, this is the layout which i did like months back! I totally forgot about it and was lazing to post. I actually intended to scrap about my running/triathlon moments so i had the perfect paper to use! I made the layout using crate paper and I curl the paper to fit my photo perfectly. The selection of photos were pretty hard cause the photos pretty ugly (i mean ME) when I'm tired so it took quite some time. You can see from the left photo, I actually put the paper over my moniter screen to choose what I wanted to print!


The rest was pretty easy, the background has a blob of back paint with really nice brush stokes! Nice! and to make the layout more outstanding i actually drew a nice line around the edge! You can also see that  actually used the photo on the right for my blog headline when i revamped it months back! I stamped my timing on the record card. haha. It's pretty rare for me to compete and even more rare for me to be photographed so this layout is out for display instead of being in an album till I make another page of me running!! Pin It

June class is out!

June class schedule is finally out! I'll be teaching mainly my own class SWEET SENTIMENTS and I am incredibly excited! I try my best to ensure everybody have tons of fun scrapping during the June holidays!  The layout took me quite a while because I wanted it to be less girlish yet appealing and the end result was GREAT! It took me in the wee hours of the night listening to the radio while scrapping. Quite therapeutic. I was really excited to finish the 2 layouts and I know I would suffer from insomnia if i don't finish it fast! I will also be teaching another class called Love Me Do (which is cute and definitely fun to create!) on Saturdays. (you can read my earlier post to find out) 
 After 3 weeks of teaching, I think I have learn quite a lot of stuffs about sharing your creative experience and how to create certain things to create an effect. I totally enjoyed and I feel like working there forever! :)
So June time will be a squeezy wheezy time for me as there are tons to do! Right now, I'm thinking of signing up one of Merdrey's classes! probably the 'carousel' or the 'ME-think positive' class! who's with me!

Busy.

I'm not sure if you know by now where I am working at. But I have been really really busy for about 3 weeks now. Learning, teaching, designing and working at the same time. I enjoyed it. A lot. I'm totally in a new work place with babes everywhere. (that's what they call each other) And unfortunately (or fortunately) I'm the MAN. (warning: This blog post has subtle self-praise.) I'm running around different places and teaching different classes which is quite fresh to me and really really fun!

They found me an apron for me to wear which looks like a butcher without his trusty meat knife and chopping board, but since the sharpest thing i hold around there is a smaller craft knife, or maybe a big Martha Steward scissors, I look pretty harmless and clueless to help. So I now proudly wear a badge which i just add on the stickers! *Refer to the first image*

Right now, I'm trying my best to design a class for next month! and I'm excited about the papers I chose and hope that many people is going to sign up! Just a few days ago, I managed to complete my deadline for a event next month! (i was complain or getting whiny, but I was satisfied with it!) I'm pretty sure its gonna be fun (and is really worth the money!) so do sign up for it at the plaza sing outlet! Pin It

stairs.

Ever since I've restarted this blog, I have been busy. I don't what and I don't know why. April just went off so quickly and its already May right now. I'm starting to scrap now and be more active in the scrapbook world, restarting to enjoy the love for scrapbooking. There's just so much things going through my mind right now to scrap and create. there's actually quite a lot of things I want to write but I'm just going to hold on first.
Here's a layout I worked for 1.5months ago which I took just a few hours to make and i absolutely loved it. I hardly do anything to create more layers and dimension. and i started using washi tapes. In case you haven't heard of it, you can see it here and here. These are the links given by my friend who owns like 20 or 30 of it. ( i think the numbers might be and understatement.) It is totally useful because you can use it on ANYTHING and for EVERYTHING. and it doesn't have to empty your piggy bank just to get one. However, the one I use for this layout does cost more because of the brand. You could see the bottom left of the page which i use red glimmer mist to make the tape a reddish colour. To tell you the truth, I only bought 2 rolls because I'm controlling before i get really crazy about the tapes!
