How to tie a scarf etc

I really like receiving those random email shop updates from Liberty. 

Just have a thing for colours and prints.

Butter biscuits for the soul

I never knew that Marks & Sparks' "All Butter Viennese" biscuits (27% butter!) could be so comforting when I'm drafting submissions past midnight in the office.

To hell with fats and all.

Camera effects

My mom won an Olympus Pen sometime back at some lucky draw. Really lucky! I really like the warm colour tones this camera captures and the fast shutter speed.

She tried some of the camera's effects on my one day and this diffused effect is very flattering haha.

The pic below is taken without any effects. My mom is apparently so enamoured by how demure I look (for once) in the pic that she had it printed professionally. 

Saturday

Love this. The website's called saturday.com - how cool is that?

Dropping by

Dropping by to post one of the layouts I did sometime back about getting lost while hiking in the Cotswold, really one of the prettiest places I've visited.

Some sort of scrapbooking

I've lost my scrapbooking mojo. While I continue to accumulate my steadily piling stash of supplies, I'm just not in the mood to actually start doing something. But I can't not scrapbook because it's my de-stresser (works by taking my mind off things) so I'm stuck in a weird unmotivated situation right now.

Good thing is I found a way out, sort of, by trying my hands on Project Life which is hugely popular now. It's scrapbooking simplified - instead of layouts, you slot your photos and journaling into clear holder pockets. It's strangely therapeutic to me as I get to include pictures + thoughts of daily life.

And another good thing, I managed to work on a layout (lifted) and put my Cameo into action again. Taking it slow and easy to let the creative juices flow again.
