Have you heard about latest ‘craze’ with Pocket Letters, started by Janette Lane? There is a lot of posts on IG about this. I’ve only stumbled upon this a couple months ago and have had the pleasure of swapping with a couple partners on the Pocket Letter Pals site. Unfortunately I was too excited to send out my pocket letters that I forgot to take photos of them! This time around, I managed to do 4 pocket letters and remembered to take photos before sending them out. Here’s a few photos from what I made… This one here is for a private swap. She likes shabby chic stuff so I…

The last in the series for the Season of Love from the Get Messy Art Journal project , I finally managed to finish these pages. Always I end up starting and walking away from these unfinished because I get stuck about how to go about it. Not to mention some of the prompts brings out some of the emotions I am still trying to get over… But so happy these are finally done and can’t wait to tackle the next season. Prompt #4 – I made 2 spreads. What would be the world devoid of love…? I made the spread using a lot of whites to show a cold environment.…

Yesterday morning, I finally got around to taking photo of my travel album. Since I’ve finished it a few weeks ago after our trip, I’ve been flipping through it over and over again. I so so so LOVE this album because it has allowed me document the trip easily and made the trip even more memorable.

Back in January, been thinking of something I could make for my family as a little Valentine’s present. And then voila! I found Freckle Photoblog via Ali Edwards’ blog and instantly I knew it was the perfect project for someone as busy as me.

All done… I’ve managed to finally find time to take photos and upload them on Flickr. See them here. Another great experience with the project. The only part that took long was the way to bind my album. I started with a 2-ring binder which became too small, then settled on big rings but still somehow did not seem right. Finally, settled on the leather strings I’ve had in my stash for a while now.

Finally managed to get a chance to take a photo of my recent book acquisitions 🙂 We’ve hardly bought books last year more because of the shipping costs. We typically order from Amazon as we don’t usually find books we like at the bookstores in Shanghai esp. when it comes to crafts and cooking.

Just managed to finish my December Daily album foundation pages in time! Last year, everything was made impromptu and with no defined design direction as I didn’t think I was going to be able to do until the last minute even though I designed some template pages.

It has indeed been some time since I managed to blog just about anything. For some reason when December started, we got swamped with work which is great of course, as it made up for the very slow beginning of 2009. So I’ve been trying to find little pockets of time in between work and weekend with the kids to do something. Our Christmas presents for the family unfortunately still has to go out! It’s awful and I’m fortunate my family has been quite forgiving about the lateness. I guess they get to have Christmas all over again… the gifts will finally and definitely will be out this week and I’m…
