Layout - You {Sean}

This is not a fantastic layout - but I needed to pour my sentiments out when I looked at Sean in this picture.

I looked at this picture of Sean blowing bubbles and I was just struck on how big and tall he seems here. The last time I had pics of him blowing bubbles - it was when he was 3 years old. Time seems to have flown by so fast!!!

I grapple with the fact that he is growing - no longer my little boy and all the attitudes that comes with it. This is a layout - depicting him growing, he becoming a unique

him, he is fiercely independent, cool and handsome (snicker - I am allowed to be a little biased here as his mom). Wish I could turn back the time to back when he was a baby. He was less trouble then!!!

Materials used:

Scenic Route pp, Scenic Route stickers, Scenic Route chipboards, MM rubons, Thickers alphas and Urban Lily rubons.

Layout - Table Manners {Sean}

Sean, where are your table manners??? The lack of it really perplexes me. How you always choose to eat with your hands. Everytime you eat - I cringe because I see food everywhere and how you seem to have ants in your pants and never being able to sit down properly to eat... Sigh... When will you learn to eat nicely??? I guess NEVER!!!!

Materials Used:

Luxe pp, Thickers alphas, Maya Road Sheer Journalling Spots, Urban Lily rubons, MM Noteworthy glitter frame, MM Well-Worn Tags, Creative Imaginations alphas, Maya Road chipboard arrow, Autumn Leaves buttons, Three Bugs in a Rug rubons and Adirondack Dabbers.

Layout - Pampered Pooch {Izzie}

As you all know - Izzie had a disastrous haircut this week. She was very unhappy at the groomers and even vomitted there. To make up for it, I decided to buy her a new Mickey Mouse bed. She was very happy with it and even smiled and posed for me.

I decided a simple layout using my Jenny Bowlin pp. I have been drooling over them ever since I laid my eyes on them. Luckily, I managed to get my hands on some. For those who are interested in these gorgeous pp, pls head over to http://www.scrap-n-crop.com/. These pp are divine and simply oh so classy.

Materials used:

Jenny Bowlin pp, Scenis Route chipboard sayings, MM noteworthy diecuts, Thickers alphas, Blueyezedine flower, MM flower brad, MM rubons, ribbon and trim from LSS (SV) and blings from local haberdashery.

Layout - Not Afraid of Pink {Ariff and Sean}

I had this series of pictures that Ariff and Sean playing with the Baby Bjorn stroller. The stroller is pink in colour and I thought of another title - "Not Afraid of Pink". The 2 of them breaking the rules of playing with something pink is totally cool.

Materials used:Cherry Arte pp, MM boy saying stickers, Maya Road Sheers Journaling Spot, Maya Road chipboard arrows, BG alphas, Scenic Route stickers, Brown ribbon from Thailand, Momoyo brads, 3d Lacquer and Autumn Leaves buttons.

Journal - Izzie's new haircut

I brought Izzie to a local groomer today. Somehow the haircut was a little less than desired. She is bald on top and she looks like she is wearing a skirt on the bottom. Sigh... To me that wasn't a good look. Plus she was vomitted whilst she was there. Major guilt on my part.

Hence to cheer her up - I bought her a new Mickey Mouse bed and a new squeaky bone toy to play with. I actually feel really guilty cos she is following me around everywhere when I am home. Perhaps she is afraid that I will dump her again somewhere, the poor puppy.

Altered Canvas - Hot Air Balloon {Sean}

Sean finished painting this yesterday and I finished touching it up today. He decided to draw a hot air balloon. Seeing the potential - I decided to add a picture of him with his hand stretched out. To make the canvas interesting, I decided to do a cute layout depicting him trying to get out of the hot air balloon. Thought this canvas looks cute with his and my ideas.

Materials used:

18x18 canvas, acrylic paints, Kindyglitz, thickers alphas, buzz and bloom arrow chipboard and yellow trim.

Painted Canvas - Alien (By Sean}

Sean painted this the other day. They are supposed to be aliens... He seems to be very proud of it hence I decided to blog this.
