Hi there! Happy Weekend! (but back to work tomorrow, sigh!). I have finally completed a 12 page mini album (what's mini about that!). I had an enjoyable time doing it though quite a painstaking process since I wasn't feeling well (and still is) and of course plus I have my day job, which demands a lot of my time.

I have used this page as it is but sprayed on layers of Glimmer Mist using Meadow Green, Cranberry Zing and Turquoise Blue. It looks good in real, like rainbows with a tinge of glitter. Same goes for the naked pocket, which I have also sprayed the Glimmer Mist onto it and later stamped the sentiments. The inserts are categorised on things that are my son's favourite e.g. Ultraman, Dinosaurs etc.

This is a page dedicated to my son's love of the dinosaurs. I have used this cute Dino cardstock from Basic Grey as the base and added Dinosaurs stickers (a left-over from a birthday party in 2009), which I bought through eBay. Here I have used felt to stamp on the sentiments Genuine and Dreams. On the tag 'My Little Dino'; it was clear embossed first before I stamped the sentiment onto it. I have distressed the edge of this page with Distress Ink.

This is simple with just using clear embossing powder and stamping. A naked pocket, which was heat embossed with copper embossing powder and an insert, which has some details of my son.

Another simple one. I have traced the shape on a green felt paper and glued onto the page. Stamped the sentiments and later added the die-cuts alphas. I got that really cheap in eBay (LOL!)

I have used Kaisercraft paper for the base for this page. Then, heat embossed with amethyst embossing powder and added the photo. The cut-out alphas was from Basic Grey cardstock. The doilies were handmade by my Mom, who does magic with her hands.

Emm..yeah, he loves to travel too, which is why I have added this page. The base paper is from Kaisercraft and it's actually a world map. I bought a few of this when I was in Melbourne last year. Love the design. The stamps are also travel theme by Kaisercraft.

This is my least favourite page, and so happens to be where I'm on it! LOL! Anywaaays...
Well, I have used the page as it is and applied Prima Mask and sprayed Glimmer Mist Meadow Green mixed with Golden Terracotta, and Cranberry Zing as I like. hehe.! Then, I stamped the bird cage and small chandelier using VersaMark and heat emboss with amethyst embossing powder.

I like this one! It's so busy. The Paper Loft as the base. It's actually quite nice with all the gears, but you can only see a fraction of it cos' it's all now hidden from view with all the motorcycles and cars and photos and stickers. This is when my mojo becomes syok sendiri, ya' know! The vehicles were stamped on different paper and water-coloured before fussy-cuts and attached to this page.

That's my latest purchase from Scrap n Crop, a paper from Echo Park Paper Co. Macam surat khabar lamaa! Hehe..a page dedicated to the grandfather (Atok) and grandmother (Nenek) of my son. And the doilies again were handmade by my Mom and added on brads from Kaisercraft. The inserts are few photos taken at places we visited over the past few years. The photo you see now was actually taken by my son. Not bad huh?!

OK, finally we are at the end of the mini album. How's the ride so far? Hehe...
I didn't use much buttons in any of the previous pages so this time, it's buttons galore! Hehehe..!
The alpha chipboards are grungeboard from Tim Holtz. Applied gesso (doesn't make much difference, I noticed) and painted it red before applied the crackled paint.
