i know that it is only July and Xmas is 5 months away but i will like to get a head-start in those hand made presents so i am starting now. i am trying to create a "a year of tags" , to be exact six of them. for now, it is alot of printing, cutting and more cutting then pasting.

i was inspired by cathy zielske http://cathyzielske.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/12/a-year-of-tags.html


i hope the link works.

*i want a room like this

so that i can scrap all day.

*one happy scrapacholic - its me

the reason for creating this blog is for me to record my progress in scrapbooking. I picked up this hobby by chance, was introduced by a fellow collagage at work and she was creating a scrapbook album for her now husband.

i was hopeless in drawing and had never been able to do any creations but scrapbooking seems easy so i thought that i shall give it a try.



from then, i was hooked onto this hobby.



one that allow me to have my own space, to take my eyes off the pc, one that destress me after a very hard day at work and bascially, made me realised that we should always celebrate the moments in our life and to record them now.



a little background about me, I am a middle child in my family. Having an older sister who is currenty down under and a younger brother, serving the army. at the moment, i am still in the first job i landed with after graduting from uni.

i tend to favour mini albums thou i enjoy the occasional altered items. Right now, i am honing my skills for those big layouts.

cheers to my first post.
