Haha...I have You Don't have

Ok, ok, it's not actually mine so I don't technically 'have' one....but Betty and I get to play with it first! The Making Memories Slice came in to the store last night and we fiddled around with it this morning. I must say its really easy to use and fun too. The interface is simple and pretty idiot-proof so that's cool. There's also a lot of nice materials like acetate and shimmer papers and things that the Slice can cut - those are coming soon too -yum. Here's some stuff Betty made with the Slice already:
As Betty would say..."mei mei" (pretty pretty)....
You can call Laine's at 63336831 to find out more about prices and discounts and stuff (Me blur, always not so sure about those kinds of things...)

We Interrrupt this Program to bring you...


Here's sneak peeks of what I designed for the classes at Laine's in November.
The Canvas Book class one is the one where I tried out Gesso image transfer onto canvas - the super fun technique Betty showed me. fun fun fun. Will post full pics after the classes are done.

Those Cursed Stickers!!!!!

Altered Art: Heidi Swapp Clock
This is another project I designed for October.

Loved:
1.This photo of the Critters - both smiling, both so happy.
2. The way the different types of blue paper came together - my kind of colours

Hated:
1. Arranging those cursed transparent stickers!!!! I decided to be 'funny' (or as those of you who know me would say "chao pattern") and stick the stickers on the inside of the transparent cover that closes the clock face. I had a horrible time trying to position them the way I wanted and tore quite a few stickers in the process.


By the way... we'll be running this class one last time in November at Laine's so you can do it up as a Christmas present - makes a nice gift eh? You can get it in pink/red too if you like. I'll be sure to include warnings about those cursed stickers - haha!

Other Favourites from October


Layout: Different in a Good Way
This is my other favourite layout from October's layout class. No major discoveries on this one, but just liked the way the towel looked on the layout (its on the right side of the background). And for you guys in Singapore, its actually the "Good Morning" towel - "Zhu jun zao an" - cheap and good! Stole one from my husband - haha! This is his favourite type of face towel.
