SweetKrafz Journal: My Photo Frames Story
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2008/04/darling-daughters-capping.html
My Photo Frames Story. Photos were taken, courtesy of a brother, Tian Keong, an avid photographer. We wanted to send some of the photos to relatives. Bought some frames . Ugh! It did not do justice to the good photography. Took a trip into town to get those really nice thick 300gsm papers with wood texture. Scoring it was a pain in the neck! Actually, it is the shoulder! I thought it did more justice to Tian Keong's work than the bought frames. Labels: My First Steps. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

SweetKrafz Journal: Hamper Labels
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2010/07/hamper-labels.html
I want hamper labels with a difference". It was like, "Wow! How different can labels be? Challenged, I took on the task. Uphill at first as this time, I had to work on a space smaller than a bookmark! KT was pretty adamant that the label should attract yet not overwhelm the hamper. Again, another pleasurable journey in crafting. Labels: My First Steps. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Master Craftsman: Dandelion. The wind comes;. The dandelion is no more.

SweetKrafz Journal: Monique Craftin'
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2009/04/monique-craftin.html
Monique from Hamilton South Baptist Church, New Zealand was in Singapore. Now, Collin was posted here for 6 months. Now, Monique and I went back a long, long way. Our friendship was sealed when she studied in Waikato University and her family moved to Hillcrest. The Currans opened their home to the overseas students, to rest, talk, and not excluding food. Guess what! Now, that's what I call an Open Home! I was nervous at first. Now, this Monique. Boy, we had a great time! Labels: Friends get together.

SweetKrafz Journal: My Scrapbook Story
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2008/11/scrapbook-inspirations.html
EnHui planned a sleepover with some friends. They planned to make cards. That was fine with me. I knew that they will be a box of birds right into the wee hours of the night. After all . been there, done this. I know what it's like. The morning (11 am is still morning, right! Arrived and they dished out scrapbooking paper! They decided to make a scrap page instead! I have never done that before! My protests were not heard in the midst of their chattering. Perhaps, ignored even. Labels: My First Steps.

SweetKrafz Journal: My Bookmarks Story
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2008/11/making-mark-with-bookmarks.html
I agreed to my darling daughter's request for about 20 bookmarks for an NUH Pharmacy function. Piece of cake! 3 days before the actual event ( and I had not even got started), the numbers hiked to 50! Adrenaline pumping I set to work. I resorted to the computer! The printer played up as usual when you're on 911! After much persuasion, it obliged. As usual, my ribbons turn out quite the wrong way. Darling daughter solved the problem by starting with the wrong way. It worked! Labels: My First Steps. Thank ...

SweetKrafz Journal: Neat Knit
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2009/06/darlin-daughter.html
Ok, I am gloating. It was history in the making! It was a major achievement to be able to get EnHui to even pick up the knitting needle. She started well early. Many dropped stitches (not to mention, needles) later, she got the hang of it. She really wanted it to be something she did all by herself . until the countdown was in hours! Mum to the rescue, of course. After all, what are mothers for, huh? Labels: Friends get together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Master Craftsman: Dandelion.

Necessity" truly is the mother of invention" Many skills surfaced. . and they say they are not creative! Are they modest or what? Labels: Friends get together.

SweetKrafz Journal: Farewell with Craft
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2009/04/chong-craft-time.html
Annette and Gerdine came over a couple of weeks ago, to make cards. I was supposed to be the "si fu", to show them the tricks of the craft .since they came saying they haven't the slightest clue how to make cards. They were very quickly on their way. All too soon, the aspiring teacher became redundant and sought sought solace with the camera. Labels: Friends get together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Master Craftsman: Dandelion.

SweetKrafz Journal: Stocking Up Time
http://sweet-artcards.blogspot.com/2008/11/stocking-up-time.html
Saturday, 15 November 2008. Found me bright an early at Jatujak Saturday Market, Bangkok. The market was massive . and crowded! Vendors don't even know what was sold in the next alley. There I was frantically flashing samples of the embellishments I was looking for. I was greeted with rows and rows of mulberry papers, recycled papers with really pretty flowers and leaves. Pretty is of course an understatement.Believe you me, much restrain was executed. I drooled. Need I say more? The wind comes;. I gotta...
