Thea is imitating and picking up things real quick these days! Yesterday afternoon I caught her holding my mobile to her ears (yes yes I know I shouldn’t have let her) babbling. She talked and kept silent for a while, as if listening to the guy on the other side of the line talking, then [...]

Hi peeps, here is another simple design for Christmas. Left this out in my last post. I’m rushing an order of 40 X’mas cards for someone to bring back to Kuala Lumpur for me, and try to do up as many as possible for my own friends there. Like my friend Rey said, my crafty [...]

Bought some building blocks for Thea a few days ago. See what she’s been up to lately:

Saw this nice gift wrap from Borders and I just had to get it. Instead of using regular patterned paper, I used a nice gift wrapper. The only down side was trying to cut the big piece of paper on my paper trimmer. Lots of twisting and turning. Haha.

Remember my brief mention about a possible dental problem? Well, the story is this: The tooth that the root canal was done on has split into two. Yeah you read it right. Split. Into. TWO! The dentist said it is because I didn’t go back to her to do a crown. To cut the long [...]

The darling bride-to-be couldn’t decide on the yellow or the purple, so I made 60 in yellow and 60 in purple. It’s a really simple design like I said, right?
These are for the VIP table. If you look close enough you’d see the dry embossed dots on the beige cardstock. The colours are made to [...]

We just got home from Thea’s 18th month doctor’s appointment and she’s crashing on the bed, probably due to the effects of the vaccinations she just had. She now weighs 12kilos and is 77cm tall, that’s average in weight and slightly below average in height. This is the first time Thea’s measurements were taken standing [...]

Had an order for 130 Wedding Thank You cards. After purchasing my supplies on Saturday, I went to work on them straightaway! It’s a really simple design – just lots of printing, cutting and gluing. LOTS.
I’m half way through them all. Will post some pictures of them all done up when….. when it’s all done. [...]

Saturday was a busy busy day! I started the day by going over to the Organic shop to buy Thea’s milk powder. We’ve decided to switch her to the Hipp Organic. It was the 3rd Saturday of the month so everything was 20% off. Bought 4 boxes to (hopefully!) last her a month till the [...]
