Splattered, Stamped and Painted

Sometimes you are feeling artsy...
And you make some artistic messy...

Tracey made this 'crazy' template and I was too tempted to try it. Even though I had promised not to try any scrapping this week, for we are going to my parents' house in Bangka next week and I need to prepare tons of things.

But, this template was to tempting.

Elements: Soho Boy, Standing in Sunlight, Eye See You. 

You can see... this page has a loooot of elements, here and there, scattered all around. But to me, it has artistic look. I love the feel of it.

Thank you Tracey for letting me play with this template.

Ah, you can grab this template in her store.

Indonesian Winter?

Off course, there's no winter in Indonesia. At least, for more than 30 years living in Indonesia, I've never seen any winter :p.

But, my little lady had another thought. She decided to put winter hat and scarf to protect her from snow? ;)

So, this is Chloe in her winter costume for an afternoon walk. Totally cute. Xoxo, little girl

Like Dad

This page is scrapped for the father of my children.
Love you, Babe. You are a WONDERful dad to our kids. Thank you for being so lovingly and so patience with them (and me).

Again, I used kit from Tracey Monette. The link of the item is here.
This kit is best for scrapping about man for its earth colors tone, masculine feels, and not so girly elements ;)

Here's the preview:

Have a nice day.

Dinomania

Chloe was a huge fan of the purple dino Barney when she was 2-3 years old.

She had to sleep with her singing Barney every night. She used to call him: Anniee... Annieee... :p This Annie is a gift from her aunt (my sister) Meike. This Barney will sing to you when you press his left paw.

I love you, you love me... :p

For this page, I used kit Dinomania and alpha Wood no.1 by Tracey Monette.
Calling all dino lovers or parents of them, you can buy this totally cute kit from her store at ScrapMatters. There's 20% off for her new store opening.

Dufan Trip

Papa had a gathering with his fellow office mates in Dunia Fantasi, the largest amusement park, I suppose, in Jakarta.

So, Mama and her krucils, were taken along so we could play around.

Joel and baby Chloe were soooo excited. Joel were dare enough to try roller coaster. Oh, my son is no longer a baby. :)

Trying A Totally Different Style

I joined 3 designers recently.. And then, one advertising from Marta Van Eck in DST calling for CT caught my eyes. Her designs are different, unusual, waking up my hibernating passion: toying around with the graphics.

So, I applied. She answered. She let me be her CT.

I love cute designs, it's the best and friendly stuffs for scrapbooking about kids, family, etc, but I also adore those imaginative surrealism feels which I always encounter when I'm indulging myself browsing those creative person's work through deviantart.com

So, these are my layout using Great Expedition kit. Use your imagination when seeing this, please. ;)

Upper picture: baby C, our baby-in-the bucket.. She loved to be put and play inside a big red bucket which now being MIA.
Bottom: Baby J, my little adventurer. ;)

Cool canvases, unusual elements, can be found here:

Beach: God's Masterpiece

Playing with this kit, I made this page of my son Joel when we were in my hometown, visiting my parents.

Also I tried to make another one from this kit.

And this is preview of the collection:

CT for an Indonesian Designer

I read her advertising in Digishoptalk, calling for CT member. I emailed her, applying for the position (at that time I fired about 5 applications, LOL -- 3 of them accepted me to join them).

Later I found that she is an Indonesian who lives with her family in Sweden. Wow. Nice to know that. Her name is Edeline Marta and I think she is so talented. Her designs meets my style, I love simplicity and cuteness when scrapping about my kids.

It's nice to communicate with your designer in your own language, and so I hope there will no language barrier between us.

She let me play with her cute Jungle Tales kit.

and this is my page out of that kit:

 

Thank you, Edhish! Great work. And because of you, I'm so proud being Indonesian digiscrapper. ;)

I am a Gem!

Just realized that I was picked as one of weekly Scrapbook Challenge's Gem in May . So, now I have the privilege to wear the badge. :) And suddenly I feel the urge to show it off!!! :) Ah, the narcissistic side of me needs to be fed with care. :p LOL!

It was my lemony page that they picked to be one of the gems. A page of my baby trying to catch a beetle bug, using Lemon kit from eqrAveziur. It's kinda surprise for me, I don't think it's a cool LO, but I guess the picture that won their heart.
