New Year Creations

With another week off, I got more scrapbook layouts done.  Also helps when mom came to "visit", and I did not have to worry about cooking and washing dishes.  So I had all the time in the world to scrap (and watch earlier seasons of Supernatural on Netflix).

Hawaii Wedding
The main reason we went to Hawaii last year (2012) was to get married!  I love Hawaii.  It's seriously my favourite place on Earth.  It's a place I can visit again and again.  Just love it, and therefore, it's a perfect setting for our wedding.

Marukame Udon

Although it was on my list of restaurants to try in Waikiki, B got to it first and fell in love.  He's not a big fan of cities in paradise, but he sure is a big fan of this place.  Near the end of our short stay in Waikiki, I finally made it there and of course, he had no complaints going there again.  It was good, but I didn't fall in love with it as much as him.  The reason to go back to Waikiki for him is this udon shop.

Traveler

During my holiday, I got a chance to go through and develop my newest vacation photos and getting all gung-ho to start another new scrapbook (yes, I'm crazy!).  So to start things off with this scrapbook, let's start with page 1, the title page!

Paper: Bazzill Basics Paper, Core'dination

Tools/Techniques: Prismacolor pencil crayons, distressing/ink

Embellishments: Sticker (title "Traveler" by Jolee's Boutique), stamps, vellum quote

Puppy Portraits

A long time ago, I took these photos with a borrowed dslr camera.  This holiday, I finally got a chance to scrap these photos.  I actually could have finished this when I was at my parents' but I don't know how I managed to lose one of the photos.  The good news is that I bought a new printer that could print out awesome (backup) photos!  And so to test it out, I reprint the photo I lost/misplaced.

Globe Theater, Cool Treats, @ the Dog Park

I've been trying to keep up with my scrapbooking.  So I try to scrap a little bit every weekend.  So I got three pages done and forgot to post them.  I don't think I remember what I used for them...

Shakespeare's Globe

Another London page done.  I'm getting close!  Although I'm no Shakespeare expert, I enjoyed my time at the theater (and buying postcards).  The best part about this page is the background paper.  It was suppose to be regular price of $1.50, but since it was among my pile of 25c papers, it got charged 25c.  Hahaha.  Lucky me.

Paper: Can't remember...

Techniques/Tools: Silhouette Cameo

Cool Treats

Shaved ice is a popular cool treat in Hawaii.  When B and I were off on our own, we went to one of the popular shaved ice places (forgot what it was called).  Too bad the day wasn't too hot, or else it would have been perfect!  Look at B's face... he looked like an old man.  

Paper: Core'dination, others

Techniques/Tools: acrylic paint, sparkles

Embellishments: stickers, chipboard, 

@ the Dog Park

These photos were taken a long time ago, so long I don't even remember when.  Well, more like B took them.  They're pretty good photos, eh?  Look at Roshi sniff a tree and run!  This one goes into the Memories scrapbook. 

Paper: Cosmo Cricket, BoBunny

Fetch

Roshi learned how to play fetch when he was only eight weeks old.  Then for some odd reason at around five to six months, he had absolutely no interest in it.  After he got neutered, he started playing fetch again, and loved it ever since.  He would just pick up either his ball or rope, and dumps it at my feet and gives you this look that demands "THROW IT".  If you ignore him, he will just pick it up and throw it at your feet again.  Silly dog.  This picture took me quite a few tries to get the right shot.  It was definitely worth it.  It came out so well!

Master Roshi

One of the layouts I got to do at my crop was Roshi's introduction to my general scrapbook.  Boy, does this layout look cute.  I've been collecting dog papers for a while now and finally got to use them.  This page was tons of fun to make, since I've been eager to make it for so long, but just didn't have the time to do so.  I think Roshi's pretty proud of me too.
