Distress Inked ATC class at SV

Shar has very kindly offered for me to teach an ATC class at SV again. These are the samples that I have made for the class. I hope to channel the proceeds to the Kg Tekir kids.  Hope that we have more registrants for the class. Wish me luck.

A great get-together

It has been a weekend of highs and lows for me.  Fri was such a rush as the Halloween went well.  But the very next day - well to put it mildy - to be scolded using profanities by a person whom I always helped this while - well - that was quite a slap on the face.  I do have a few choice words for her and her sister too but why engage right?  When she can't even read what I type?  It would be such an utter waste of time.

Anyway - due to the cancellation of the crop party,  I was stuck with there very expensive cupcakes.  Hence,  I have decided to ask the ladies to come over for a tea.  It was quite a coincidence that Yatie was in town and we all had a blast.

Pls note that the filling in the other cupcakes were BAD - but the lady that made the cupcakes was very sweet and refunded me my money and even bought me a box of chocs.  Thanks very much SY for your kind gesture.

Anyway - it was an afternoon filled with laughter and fun even though not so planned. It was good to have enjoyed myself with these lovely ladies.  More photos coming soon.  I can't seem to find them in my Iphoto.  Maybe I didn't download them all from my gmail account. Hee hee.  Toodles - lots to do and will try to blog what I made later.

Btw - my gum is quite painful and I am slightly feverish - sigh....

Halloweeen 2008

We had 22 kiddoes this halloween!

We went to 6 houses to trick or treat.

We had a BLAST!

Cute little Jiya with her neon bracelets.

Nics treasure hunting neon bracelets in a pitch black garden!  We were greeted with a pitch black garden at Al's and boy it was spooky!  Another very fun venue.

Jo came up with this last min game - trying to eat snakes from a line without using your hands.  The kids rated this game one of the best!  Well done Jo!

Claudia with her stash.

Cute little Kei Yin.

Layout - Wushu

Made a green layout for Scrappingchix's challenge this month.  I have decided to use Sean's wushu photos for this white and green combo.  We have just received word that both kids have passed the 2nd grade wushu exams!  I am both proud and happy with their achievements.

My Little Cutie Tin Man.

Sean was selected to the be the Tin Man in the school play.  A quick visit to the tailor with with some silver material - the suit was done.  When it came back - the suit was actually too small.  Hence - I decided to piece together a vest to cover the catastrophe.  Luckily it all worked out.

Sean looked pretty cute but he complained so much about the itchy silver material.  Plus to put silver face paint on him - I am telling you that this boy is quite wicked.  Plus I had to add more makeup like the eyebrows,  eye liner and lipstick - he was scandalised.  But I managed to pull rank and forced him.  I think he looked pretty good in the end.
