This is possibly the only creative thing I've been keeping up with lately. So here is two week's worth of eye drawings! *winks*
Happy week ahead friends!
Tuesday
Friday
Workspace Friday - on my desk
Feeling a little burnout so taking it easy this week. Got myself some lilies. And did a little eye drawing. :)
Hope you are taking time for a little self-care. Happy weekend friends!
Tuesday
A page from the gratitude journal - birthday flowers
Throwback to March last year when nephew #1 bought me flowers for my birthday. This year, he wished me happy birthday from Melbourne, Australia where he is pursuing his medical degree.
Thursday
Thursday's desk - another week in eye drawings
So I was in Bangkok last week and managed to sneak in a few drawings during happy hour...*yay...go me!*
I was furiously getting my eye drawn before I lost daylight....
While the servers made sure I had a replenishment of gin and tonic....
Gasp! Do I draw better while intoxicated? *dramatic music plays in the background*
Happy Thursday friends! :)
Wednesday
Workspace Wednesday - meet my 2025 gratitude journal
Meet my 2025 gratitude journal. The cover looked like it was blue and red online but it is actually blue and orange. Such a happy colour combo.
This is my third year using the Hobonichi Techo A6 as my gratitude journal. I love the compact size.:) The first year, I went all out and even bought the plastic cover on cover. But I realised that it just got glue mark stains really fast. So it's just the A6 book and a cover for me. None of the fancy overpriced stuff.
Looking forward to getting this filled up alongside the 2024 gratitude journal because I really need to clear up the gazillion photos on my phone. *LOL*
Tuesday
Make Stuff Monday on a Tuesday - this week's upcycled box project
Hello. Totally meant to post this on a Monday but didn't. Oops. So here it is on a Tuesday. This week's upcycled project.:)
I started with this lovely sturdy box from Kiehl's.
Some packaging bits...
Some happy mail repurposing bits...
Even took the trusty old glue out to adhere the dimensional bits...
And of course, it has to be finished with shimmer mist. :)
Monday
Monday's page from the gratitude journal - free birthday cake
Love it when I get a birthday surprise treat at the hotel that I'm staying in. It's a small piece of cake that I get to devour all by myself. Which is a real treat. :)
Kind of a mish mash page. Had to add that My Melody sticker (coz she's my fave and I spilled glue on that part...*winks*). And the banner sticker was kind of wonky but it was stuck down so let's call it a design style eh...*LOL*
Friday
Friday's single eye drawing
The schedule has been brutal with travel every 2 weeks...(on the plane home as this gets posted) so this was the single eye drawing I got done before I left. :)
Happy weekend friends!
Thursday
The one about Ah Seng Durian
So if you didn't already know...the Yams love durian! :)
Our government recently gave all citizens some vouchers to help with the cost of living (and to help local businesses) so we went to Ah Seng Durian for a treat! The box of Blackthorn durian that mum is holding is S$45. It goes by weight and you pay for the thorny shell that is inedible.
Durian season only comes twice a year with the mid-year harvest being the biggest one...so it's really a treat to get to savour the king of fruits. :)
Wednesday
Workspace Wednesday - playing with My Melody stickers
Gotta be honest. Some days just sticking some cute My Melody stickers on my wireless earphones counts as creative time. :)
Tuesday
Tuesday's page from the gratitude journal - sweet treats
I love the sweet treats at the Signature Lounge at Caravelle Saigon. They are bite-sized so you can try them all. *winks*
Monday
Make Stuff Monday - a muted colour palette on an upcycled paper bag
Decided to challenge myself with a muted colour palette on an upcycled paper bag for this week's Make Stuff Monday.
Pretty happy to be able to use up the little bits in my stash that fall under the muted colour scheme.
As always, it was finished with glimmer mist to tie everything together. :)
Friday
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!
