Bright and Cheery

It is great to wake up on a Monday morning knowing that there isnt any school today. No more Monday blues to chase away.. This week would be a nice time to catch up on preparation for Term 2 as well as some time devoted to myself. So far, i have been scrapping a lot. Just this weekend alone, i have completed 2 layouts and 1 album. I will need to prep for a wedding tray later and spend some good 2-3 days completing it. I cant wait to surprise the bribe with it. More on that later..

I thought i would do a little update on my 'current favourites' since it has been long since i last did a post like this. It would be nice to share some product reviews and tools that i am crazy about now. :D

Favourite ink: *drumroll....*



It is a tie between Tim Holtz's frayed burlap and iced spruce. You got to try these if you havent. Frayed Burlap has a more subtle vintage feel than brushed codoroy and iced spruce simply makes all your paper edges feel like CHRISTMAS. :D

Favourite tool: Prima Comfort Craft Distressing Tool


Prior to this, i used to use my MM sand block to make my papers edged or use my hands to tear the papers. With this tool, i think i saved all of my problems in one shot. It is able to distress papers in so many different ways. I am so glad i grabbed it once it hit the stores last year. :D

Favourite adhesive: This and That Sticky Red Tape


One of my favourite scrapper, Kristina Werner has been raving about this sticky double sided tape for the longest time. It is so true! It sticks so well that you dont need to worry about your papers falling out. Highly recommended. My first roll is almost gone. :/

Favourite stamp: The next two layouts say it all.. Used the same MME's stamp on both of these layouts. I am in love with the sweet stamp quote. :D




So have a good Monday morning. Wherever you may be, I hope you have a great week ahead. :D
