for the car.
Date: 21 Dec 2010 (Tue)
Time: 345pm
Venue: junction outside Chong Pang Camp
Parties involved: our car and lorry
Casualties: our car's backside and lorry's front
Cost of damage: to be confirmed.
Remarks: Everyone was okay. The boys were not hurt despite the shattered rear windscreen raining down on them. I was calm and composed... because HS was there (phew!); because I had to be strong for my boys (!!!); because I had experience (???). Thankful that everyone is safe.

52Q - Week43 to Week45
Another lot in the basket...
This is a really quick piece... stamp stamp and used a scrap piece of paper for the question... and the reasons why i can remember what I was doing this time last year were my PAD calendar and my 5-year diary!!! Love them to bits!
I am loving the anyhow-stamp-until-no-ink method to create a repeated background! N ues, the stitching is back, because I needed to de-stress a bit and wind down a bit, so I started piercing the holes... and it grew into a spiderweb! Happy with the outcome!
Yeah! I got to use my "new" clear stamp from Prima... the music score. This piece was part of a set bought for a while, but never opened to use... the same old statement of "too many stamps, too little time" : P

52Q - Week40 to Week42
November has been a crazy crazy month... and I slacked in my weekly crafting exercise. I'd blamed it on the onset of school holidays actually... because my usual crafting window between 7am to 8am is superseded by the routine of waking Lei and chasing him to get ready so that I can fetch him to Woodlands before I head off to work : (
here are the Q&A for the 52Q which I am desperately trying to catch up... as the year draws to an end... Yikes! It is December already!!!
Great question... makes me take stock of some of the important stuffs in life that we tend to sweep under the carpet amidst the busy everyday life. And makes me commit to "do something about it".
I am so liking the raindrops now... and it is so easy to create that effect with the teardrop-shaped inkpads! Felt like the potato-stamping art exercises we used to do in primary school!!!
I am rushing, rushing, rushing... have not really spend much time playing with the boys... looking forward to some serious fun time with them soon, especially since now is the school holiday period... and Xun will start Primary One next year.
After all these years of "hiding in the closet", I am finally admitting that I love Chinese New Year! It is my heritage, my culture, me : )

I've Got Mail
This is a DEADLY (Drop Everything And Do Layout... Yeah!) layout! I am soooo touched by the lovely note that Xun wrote and illustrated especially for me : )
I am thinking of printing the same note onto a T-shirt!

52Q - Week37 to Week39
Another batch... I am getting current : ) and as the collection grows, it is also a reminder of time passing... as I am posting now, it is 13 more weeks to the end of Year 2010!!! (gasp!)
The tapes and the clouds return!!! Cannot finish using!!!
I am not adventurous when it comes to food... I eat to live... maybe that's why I am so skinny : S
I started with making a list of stuffs that bring me joy... and wonder how am I going to shortlist the most important ones to fit into the 4x6 card... then I realised the commmon thread and I am soooo pleased with my answer : )

52Q - Week34 to Week36
Oh the lovely feeling upon completing something : )
This one was put on hold for weeks (and caused a backlog of the subsequent weeks because I am soooo "stubborn" about proceeding with the sequence... must complete this before moving onto the next one : P)... because I could not find a nice picture of a nest! Finally saw this on a book cover and secretly snappped a picture at the bookstore : P
I had thought this was a tough question. My inital response was : I am not a goddess. I am a mere mortal.
Oooh! I had fun weaving with my MT tapes, since they are not as tacky as the normal tapes... and realised the solid black and white ones are the coolest!!! And the answer format was inspired by the Words With Friends games that I'm hooked on my iPhhone : )
