I’m guilty beyond reasonable doubt… I’ve neglected this poor blog. Things have been hectic and I have been in no mood to blog.

At least I’m updating this now LOL.

Anyway ladies, I have fantastic news and goodies to share. I also want to give a shoutout to my Dad who is celebrating his 50th birthday today. I cooked him some pasta this morning. Yes ladies, I cooked. LOL :)

OK, on with some great news. I am now on the creative teams of O.N. Designs and Shabby Miss Jenn. A great addition to my wonderful CT’s. A lot of tasks to be done of course, but always lots of fun :)

So let me show you some new goodies you won’t want to miss. We’re all a little fond of window shopping right? Let’s just say we all have a lot in common :) And you know what can make window shopping better right? Buying stuff. In this case, kits!

I’ve always considered myself a lousy cook. Tragic ‘ei? Well, that’s why there are husbands! To cook food. LOL. I’m just kidding of course. After a year of marriage I’m slowly inching my way as the Iron Chef of, well, our house. And when I mean ‘inching’, it’s equivalent to a year. ROFL!

So ladies, the CT team of Faith True, including moi, has some RECIPE CARD freebies for you!

I’ve always loved Chinese food. So here’s some dishes you might want to try. I got the recipes here. And who knows, I might prepare this for my husband and daughter ;) Scroll down for the download links.

Flo has some recipe cards for you too and you can see it in her blog. I’ll post the other links later from my other team members, so be sure to come back here :)

And speaking of Faith True, check out her newest kit, Arthur’s Big 4th. It will be available today, August 19, 2008 at Shabby Pickle Designs. It also has a Months of the Year paper pack addon.

That’s all ladies. Hope you like the recipe cards and the recipes I shared :) Have a great day!

Hi Ladies! How’s your day?

After a few entries in this blog, I have to say this title was something I really had to think about LOL :) Kiddin’!

Anyway, today is the 18th. And you know what the 18th is in my books. Every month, my husband and I celebrate our “Monthsarry”. If you don’t know what’s that, well here’s a brief explanation. We became an ‘official’ couple on the 18th of May a couple of years back. Every month, we celebrate this ‘being-a-couple-thingy’ until now, even if we are already married :)

Nothing special though. No special dates. Nada! We, I mean HE, has a lot of housework to do, while I sit here and blog. LOL. Seriously though, I will get my butt up to help him later on. I think he deserves all the help he can get after I sat here in front of the computer almost all week scrapping :P So a little shoutout to him, I love you so much Papa and thank you for your scrapping support :) LOL :)

I’ve got some great news Ladies. Do you remember the Tag Book Challenge over at Digital Artist Magazine blog?

Here is my entry:

And it won second place! WOOHOO! I won a GC to Vera Lim Designs :) Congrats to everyone who joined. You all deserve it! Lots of wonderful entries there, I tell you. You can see that blog entry here.

Have you seen the latest copy of Digital Artist Magazine? I have to admit I was blown away by the magazine’s contents. I didn’t know that so much inspiration, exclusive downloads and tutorials are included there. The issue was given to me free as I have one page that was published there (WOOHOO!!!) but I’m considering purchasing their old issues. Honestly, I was kinda hesitant to buy DAM before. Before, I thought I’ll just buy a kit or something instead of the magazine. But boy was I wrong! I just love everything about the magazine and this has changed everything! I’ll definitely consider buying some older issues soon.

Here’s my page that got published in DAM’s August Issue:

I am so honored to have been published! :)

And I have some two great news for you ladies. My lips are sealed though. Can’t say it yet but it’s exciting and I feel like a child in a toy store :P
