Thank you

...to all for the condolence messages left. Your kindness and sympathy at this time are more appreciated than any words can ever express by the close family of our late uncle.

Life is a process. We are a process. The universe is a process.
~ Anne Wilson Schaef~


So life goes on.

******************************

Anyway, took these photos last night after I passed on this soo very cute altered door hanger to my DD. Indeed, she was very pleased and extremely happy!! A little warning, this might be a long post.





Thank you Auntie Jazz! ♥



We absolutely loved it! :D

And my sincere thanks to the Wonderful Happy Scrappers for throwing a surprise birthday celebration (in advance) yesterday at Scrapbook Delights crop date! :D You all didn't have to do all this actually...*aisehmen* Haha! Nonetheless I sincerely appreciate the thoughts and efforts made then. I bet its killing you inside to keep this away from me???! I know the (lovely) mastermind behind this.... hehe! *hugs* Thanks my {powerpuff} Girlfriends!

Hehe! Picture this (and can be seen here too). I was really really puzzled by the birthday singing and the cake (YUMMYY CAKE BTW!!!) was actually for me whilst I was having my sweet moment doing some browsing in the inks box! Haha!! Talk about a shopaholic?? Will on to that later. :p

I also finally met Dazzle, Yati, Renee and Sherlene in person. They all were very nice and friendly too. :) And also Nadia ! Yayyss! Akhirnya dia tidak takut sama aku~~ hehehe!! Shes soo cutee, soo adorable, soo pretty in her curly hair! Thankgod I didnt gigit her though. heee

Got few pretty surprises too! Got a couple of custom made explosion boxes (perfect for mini albums!) from Your Sweetness Her Majesty, Poinz! *hugs*


They're soo conveniently pretty Woman! Thank you again! :)

Another surprise was from this sweet girl. In fact she surprised everyone of us. hehe!

Renoa created a mini card for all of us and this is a card for me!! Yayss!! :) Thanks babe! It was a sweet card and lovely notes inside too!

Here is also a LO made from the crop date. We only managed to do one LO though. But this is not just "my" LO, we swapped with others and incorporated the challenge called out by our none other than the talented her.

~* Simply Bloom *~

Every person has their own style. I love the look of this LO as it is especially the cluster of blue flowers tied with a ribbon. And you will not believe this was done by first-timer scrapbooker?? It may looked simple and easy, but I bet it took a lot of effort to even twist and swirled the ribbon.
Amazing work.

************************
Remember this happy post? I finally received a couple of their Random Act of Kindness (RAK) in the end of the croppin date! Yayyss!! Lets see what I got.............. heee

This one yummy package was a winning gift from Scrappin Kids Marathon. It was a See d's Stamp Package! I amm soo loving this! Now got more reasons to do some stamping! And this RAK was sponsored by Scrapbook Delights.

Thank you Scrappin Kids and Scrapbook Delights (Brunei)!
ps. Thankgod she and she didnt manage to steal them away from me... muahahahaha! But we can always share... :)

Meanwhile, this another candies were RAKs from Scrap Inspire Create and Brunei Scrappers Forum for my Mini Pop Up Album. Let the picture speaks for itself. ;)





And not to forget, bought myself some new supplies too since Scrapbook Delights offered 20% to 50% discounts during its Open Day. Pretty much good bargain eh.


All in all, I had so very much FUN hanging out with the awesome regular croppers! Thank yous. We should do this again...but I guess not too soon. More expected surprises are coming in and it will be a very busy time for some of us. ;)

Good night everyone and a little note to self, live life to the fullest!

3-1=2

(N.B. this is my 100th post!)


And the subtraction why...?



DH is currently outstationed till the weekend. This is his first time away from DD. Earlier we sent DH to airport. Had dinner together before he boarded the plane. When DH told DD that he got to go, DD said, "*I want to go with you babah (dad)..." and hugged DH tightly. Somehow DD lets DH go after few seconds of hugging... *aawwww* Before DH left our table, DD kissed goodbye and said, "*Take care babah.....".

Man! Hearing that sure made my heart melt and I bet DH too. DD is such an angel... ♥

*Translated from Bruneian Malay to English.

******************************

The Lovelies paid me a visit just now. As I didn't prepared and cooked something special for them, they requested a Teh Tarik instead. Frankly I am not really good at making teh tarik but thankfully it turned out okay *haha* because The Lovelies said "nyaman! nyaman! (yummy!)" but...... they sounded FAKE! LOL! just kiddin.

Thanks for dropping by my place Lovelies! *HUGS*

******************************

Yay! Finally half of my groove is back!! Thanks to the Groovie Girls at the Groovie Cafe for sharing the inspiration and made me step out of my comfy zone!

First I did the October Card Challenge; to include Pink & Green as the main color for a Thank You card, hosted by Stephanie.



Believe it or not, I made this card in the wee of 1.00 AM! A side effect of taking a mug of caffeines in the earlier evening.


Then I created this LO based on a book cover featuring Anthony Bourdain. This was hosted by Groovie Ed.



~* shy shy girl *~


Apparently as I was the first one to post my LO, Sophia Soh is also giving away her RAK for the first poster. weeheeee!! Thanks so much Sophia!! :)

***********************

Oh yeah. I was checking my mails in the office.. and thrilled to find out that Michelle of M'sian Scrappers Society has informed that she will feature my Purse Album (and it is also a winning purse at Artz de Scrap September Challenge!! weeheee!!) in her blog. It was an honour and I am indeed delighted to share the purse album with others.



Thanks Michelle B! :)


Meanwhile, my Rough IT SK Beyond kit has safely reached me!! Ecstatic is the word!! Cant wait to play with IT. Its really a CUTE pack of kit!



Thanks SK Beyond and Wati B. for your prompt action! :)

ps. whoaa this post is much brief than i thought.


September 8, 2008

oh what a day!

Today is really something.

Firstly, I didn't feel like going off to work. I slept for 2 hours only. Totally a sleepless night and that i have panda eyes! To make things worst and perhaps to test my inner patience during this holy Ramadhan, came across a few annoying people, callers and drivers on the road that could almost get us registered into the Brunei's accident statistic!! ARGHH!!

Secondly, I misplaced some important receipts for my account reconciliation........... hmm.

Thirdly, I am supposed to join the others for an online crop earlier tonight.....but something baaaaadd.......something truly unexpected came up and so they had to start without me. sheeeshh! :(


Anyhow I managed to create one challenge for Artz de Scrap Purse Album Challenge (tutorial made by Michelle). It was so fun making this album and plus it looks girly. Perfect fits for all girls/woman/ladies!


I have yet to embellish the inside album, so watch this space.


Further, I am still in the midst of completing the Mini Pop-Up Album which we have done during the Brunei Scrappers Online tutorial last Saturday hosted by Ka Jazz. Deadline is coming soon, so i gotta rush.......!!


Oh got an awesome award from three lovely ladies Yatie, Mimiey of the Babehs and Alin of the Scrappin Sisters recently. Thanks so much ladies!!
