been asked by a friend for help with a thank you card so i got to start working on one. and its a glimmer de-mystified class this sat at MWL, am so excited! after conquering misting, i'm thinking of taking up a class on layering as well as working on canvas.

have a great start to the week everyone! thank you to those who left me encouragements. i'm still working on my healthcare assignments and attachment reports but i know i can make it because the joy of the Lord is my strength!

stash!

been a "naughty" girl. after the release of the new CHA winter papers and materials from the various maufacturers, i've been collecting from website to storefronts. and i got my mwl membership upgraded as well in the process heh (:

i've now accumulated for myself a huge stack of patterned papers! thinking hard about how i can put the old and new papers to good use.

i also signed up for a glimmer mist class taught by Jasmine. really excited to get my hands inky! i'll be focusing on attending classes more techniques related this year and hopefully throw in a class or two with some of my favourite local scrappers. i'm interested to learn layering as well (:

so this is really a random post! the kids i'm working with will do their first artsy patch for their journals this week during STAR prog. hopefully all things will go really well, even for the boys ;p

blessed week everyone!

I left the insides empty because I haven't quite decide what I wanted to draw or write, didn't wanna rush it so shall leave it as it is until i know what i want to do with the card. ;p

had fun working on this card! used some new prima rub-ons as well and misted the cardstock with three different colours for the background (sorry i don't have those TA mists names right now!) (:

have a blessed day ahead everyone!

a card for dear Karen

made a card for Karen who has moved to NZ permanently. missing her and hoping all's well on her end (: kind of wish i had that kind of courage to live in a new country. she prefers a slower paced of living so NZ definitely fits the bill. actually i love that kind of lifestyle, very countryside, homey and all. but the ones that matter are all here in sg so i guess a move is unlikely, maybe retirement? my boyfriend says he would love to retire elsewhere haha, sounds good to me!

rants ):

allow me to rant. ever since attachment started within my own organization in order to clock 400 hours of social work practice, i've been like a mad woman, not literally but you get the picture. attachment doesnt feel like it because i'm still a staff but workload's increased and i find myself not enjoying what i'm doing now. i hope it gets better after i finish clocking those 400 hours ): i have more cases now, a mixure of adult, children and youth issues. i  have to run groupwork too which depletes my battery very quickly. God, need more strength from you!

i made a card for a friend in NZ on Sat, will find time to snap some photos to share. going to find more time to do a card for get sketchy's sketch challenge. rather coincidental that a card idea i had last week matched the sketch so i'm going to join the challenge for the first time  (:

okay so this is just a short post to let you know i'm not missing in action heh. have a good week! and pls pray for me!
