Layout⎪ 6x6 Paper Play *Citrus Twist Kits*

Hello there! Its been almost 2 weeks since I last blogged. No worries, I am still breathing and crafting although I have been crafting much lesser compared to the days Baby Ivan was here. Baby's first days can't wait and I would not want to miss those precious moment right?

I have two layouts up on Citrus Twist Kits blog today featuring the 6x6 paper pads that is included in the Project Life May kit. I love purchasing 6x6 pads although I don't make a lot of cards. I just love how this little paper pad has almost all the papers in a particular collections at a fraction of price. And most of the PL-ers know that the scaled-down patterns in the 6x6 pads are perfect to use for those little pockets in PL spreads.

I also love using 6x6 pads to create traditional 12x12 layouts and I have posted two of the examples on CTK blog. One is crazily vibrant and the other one is simply dreamy. Do check the blog out and hopefully you'll be inspired to use up some of the paper pads in your stash too!

With a 2 inch square punch and a 6x6 paper pad, I could make a busy-and-complicated looking layout under an hour. Awesome huh? I could go really crazy with the colors and embellishment as I am using a B&W photo. I think I am gonna scrap this photo again and again as this is one of the most important moment of my life.

Currently: In love with vellum pockets.

Am hoping I could have better hand writing ;)

The 'Notes' stamp is one of the CTK exclusive stamp. Too cute!

And this is the 2nd layout I created with the 6x6 pad & a Martha Stewart Hearts punch.

As opposed to the previous vibrant layout, this layout is more on the muted, dreamy side to match with my wedding photo. This is one of my favorite photos of myself during my big day. The photo is so simple, yet meaningful, so I didn't want the layout to be overwhelmed with embellishments.

The Dear Lizzy thickers look so yummilicious with its sugar frosting ;)

Running out of white thread. So I have been stitching with pale yellow thread for my recent projects.

I have more layouts and projects that I can't wait to share with y'all here. Stay tuned! XoXo....

Updates!

Whoopsie! It has been almost T-W-O months since I updated my blog. For my closer friends, they knew exactly what I had been up to. Baby bumps, mini renovation, moving house and wedding reception (my own wedding, of course!) are all the major events that kept me FULLY occupied for the past two months. I didn't scrap much as the smell of papers made me feel so ILL during my first trimester so i resorted to hooks and yarn only. Then I gotta force myself to completed 400 gift tags for my own wedding gifts with some assistance from mum. I shall post up on how I managed to complete 400 personalized gift tags in my future post. So stay tuned!

Then we went to Malacca for a mini getaway with our friends from China. We skipped the trip to Krabi because my in laws & husband didn't allow me to take flight during the end of my first trimester.

Finally we are back to our Home Sweet Home in Singapore with our fostered doggie, Junior. A home will not be completed without ❤ and doggies ;)

And my rescued dog passed away two weeks ago at age 15. RIP, Madame Wong.

And finally baby bump is showing at Week 18. 

It's time to go to bed now. Having really really bad sinusitis since last weekend. Will definitely make time to update my blog more often and share with you guys all my completed projects. I have been scrapping, making cards, sewing and crochet-ing. Nights nights!

A lil' note for my dear husband who stalks my blog occasionally, WIP stands for Work In Progress.
