Happy Birthday Po-Po!

We celebrated our grandmother's birthday last week and it was a nice family gathering at my grandfather's favourite restaurant. But before we left for dinner it was dessert first, it's just too noisy to have the cake cutting later. So the highlight of the evening... a slice of birthday cake beautifully made by Auntie Josie.

Popo opening presents!

We gave her a Sushi set that comes complete with utensils and a DVD guide. She's already planning what to cook the following Sunday.
Our grandparents together. Aren't they romantic!
Nigel and Uncle Meow joining in.
Happy Birthday Po-Po! God has blessed us through you. Love from ...ALL OF US.

Fooling Around With My New IMac

This is what you do when you first lay hands on your new IMac. I had it maxxed out and it's on turbo. Blogging is a breeze!!!!Seeing doubles?
This is so cool! (No one is watching..better snap , snap!)
So weird! Check out my waistline. Hmmm....Virtual slimming?

Celebrating 101 Posts with A Lovely Card!

I was keeping this card for my 101 posts and today is the day! All the way from Johore - Ying's card says it all. Thanks Ying! Visit her blog here... http://yingandrubberstamping.blogspot.com/

Ah! And Thanks to NNC my card to Ying made it to 'Picture of the month'. Here are the photos of my first card exchange.
The supplies I received from Ying as part of the challenge.

I stole some black paper clips from Nigel's stationery (I wonder why he needed them in the first place!) Had to throw away the first few - yep, this needs practice.

Drafting my imaginary dress on tracing paper.
I had to clips joined so the thread binds the mini hanger together.
Assembling the dress and messing around with the composition. Thank goodness for 3M stick glue! Love that stuff, it's purple when applied and dries clear and absolutely no creases!!
A dress with a little lace. That's me, I love laces but you'll never catch me wearing lace.

A surprise inside. Making full use of my craft punches I've been collecting.

A pocketful of blessings for Ying!

All packaged and ready to go.

My finished card. A little dreamy dress complete with a rick-rack sash.
