The one about Rose Romance at the Flower Dome

 


Yep...the Yams went to the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay yet again. *winks*


We got there a day before the Rose Romance exhibit ended...phew! It was super crowded but we managed to get some photos in...:)


A super fast layout using scrap bits and stickers.

Enjoy your weekend!

What's new in my life - new fun sandals

 


Hello friends! Just wanted to share some fun new sandals I got as we bid adieu to the month of July. Camper makes this series of shoes called Twins in which the left and right side are not the same but still "match". I love how fun these are...with the bold colours and the quirky mismatched sides. :)

A page from the gratitude journal - new coloured pencils


I remember how excited I was to get these (a set of 30) last year. The packaging idea of having them like little books was pretty cool. Given the maximalist that I am, I was so tempted to get the entire collection of 100 colours. But I tried them out for a while and realised that they are not for me. They are super hard pressed with very little colour pay-off for my style of drawing. But it was a thoughtful gift from my cousin as she watched all my IG reels to check out the pencils that I already own before getting these for me. So I will treasure this set.:)

Make Stuff Monday - yet another mish mash upcycled decorated paper bag

 


Another week, yet another mish mash upcycled decorated paper bag. Yep. Scored a few Kraft paper bags recently...so more to come! *winks*


Creative time has been limited of late so I have been trying to vary my style to keep learning and growing in whatever time I do have.


Also making a concerted effort to use up my "save it for a rainy day" stash...


And just gluing stuff down instead of wasting time contemplating...


I really like how bright and colourful this piece turned out. ;)

The Yam folks love pickleball!

 


Guess who started playing pickleball? *winks*


The Yam folks! :)



Keeping their hearts and brain healthy through pickleball. I paid for the equipment (hence have all photo rights..hehe) while my sister was the official referee aka ball picker. *LOL*


Happily using up my stash....:)

A page from the gratitude journal - fussy-cutting

 


I really really enjoy fussy-cutting. There's something meditative and therapeutic about cutting out the patterns. It makes me happy to have a whole stack of fussy-cut elements ready-to-use for future projects. :)

What about you? Do you enjoy fussy-cutting?

Workspace Wednesday - new additions from Buttersage Pottery

 


I was in Penang last week to visit my bestie and came back with these new additions from Buttersage Pottery. :)


I already have two matcha cups and a chawan in this style. Now I have a pouring jug.


And a small cup which is perfect for my morning espressos. :)

Mum's birthday 2025

 


We recently celebrated mum's birthday with a day trip to Johor, Malaysia. 


It was my sister's first drive in so she was very excited...which meant that we went out very early. *LOL*


We had a dim sum breakfast, did some grocery shopping and then went to another mall for sportswear shopping (the folks have recently started going to the gym so they needed nice workout clothes), had a seafood lunch then a foot massage. After that we bought takeout for dinner to avoid the jam at immigration. And a tiny cake for mum (the bakeries there only sold mini cakes..) which we cut at home.


Just a layout with lots of fun bits. :)

Make Stuff Monday - a decorated kraft bag

 


I recently scored some unadorned Kraft bags and just had to get to decorating! *winks*


Trying a vertical design and experimenting with creating different clusters that are linked by colours.


Happy week ahead friends!:)
