This time round, created a very distressed look art. Not sure anyone able to accept the distressed and "dark" look of it. But me loved it. Can do better though.  Here it is:

"From Scratch" video by my brother

Hi all, today I also want to share a video done by my brother, Austin Theng for his ITE final year project. This video is about how an ex-convict turned into a successful entrepreneur. Do watch the video, "From Scratch" and spread the message of second chances for ex-convict. Let's give them the encouragement and support to be a better person and that they can be given a second chance.

Enjoy the video and thanks for visiting my blog again.

Mini Album of Cards

After a week of coaching my girl for her tests, I can finally get down to scrapping. Today's project is a mini album of cards. Made this album upon my friend's request. She wanted a mini album of 20 pages for 20 people to pen down their greetings/messages. 

Again, I used my favourite color scheme: turquoise, pink and brown for the cover and back of the album. Also used Dusty Attic chipboard border and washi tapes bought through Scrapbook Market (a local facebook group). 

Painted the Dusty Attic chipboard border with crackle paint. Made the 2 blue flowers using punches. 

For the inserts, made using kraft cardstock and some die cut tags and digital collage. The kraft cardstock create space for people to pen down their messages.

And this is the back of the album.

Hope you all enjoy the album. And please do join in the Fabulous Friday Challenge at Frosted Designs. This week's challenge is about "Numbers".  Thank you for visiting my blog.
