52Q - backtracking (week10 to week12)

i am slowly working my way to "catch up"...




Happy to use my very old alphabets from the K&Company Letters To Go box... My gosh! That was from some 5 years ago!!! They do not seem to run out!!!




I got a little dirty with the black ink pad for Week 11's project... toned down the bright colours on the patterned paper to better reflect the theme of "at night".




My answers were on the tag tucked into the pocket: good health / loved ones / meaningful hobby and employment. And I played with my distress ink pads and foam applicator and non-stick craft sheet... love the effects created on the tags!

52Q - backtracking (week7 to week9)

I am halfway through to catching up! There is a very special feeling when one sees the progress that one has made... I am looking at my album filling up slowly as I complete each card : )











52Q - Week31 to Week33

The past few weeks were crazy... lots happening at work... Xun's childcare centre's shutdown for 10 days because of HFMD outbreak... so I am skipping my daily crafting time in the mornings, sneaking in 5 mins here and 10 mins there, to feed my soul...




The answer side was part of a bigger piece of canvas art... Instead of relegating it to cold storage, I decided to cut it up and recycle... love the techniques and effects with paints and gesso!





I dedicated this piece to the very reason behind this project : )





For the longest time, my Wednesdays are centred around the weekly shipment arrivals...every week, we keep our fingers crossed... Sometimes I marveled at how long we have kept up with this mad cycle... every week, every Wednesday... At some point in time, I have in fact grown to resent Wednesdays because of this... but the job has to be done, it will be done.

Gosh! Another three weeks have passed!




This is my first and VERY LAST attempt at doing "cute"... Can die!!! I've always suspected that I really cannot make it... At least now it's official!!!





Seriously, i often dreamt of my teeth dropping out. I worry too much lah! Luckily every time I woke up, they are still intact!!!





I cannot begin to tell you how much my mother has done for me... and how very blessed I am!!!

Another month has passed...

I have Been Searching For Answers...

What is my purpose on this earth?

52Q - Week25 to Week27

I have been good. I have more or less kept up with my 52Q project : )

Amongst this lot, my favourite question was Q26. After completing this, I was very tempted to go write on my wall. Seriously. But I do not have the "courage" to do it. Yet. And i cannot explain why...
