I've done the unimaginable the other day. It was a time crunch but I managed to make two mini albums as birthday pressies! This is the first time I am giving away a mini album as a gift. So, yes, it was nerve wrecking and nervous whether the recipients would accept it kindly.

Here is the first mini album I made. This one is fun, cheery and colorful.

YAY!! I got more washi from Freckled Fawn. So pretty! :)

I found this very helpful link and a very cute explanation too ;) How to heat emboss?? Here's how.

1. Ink stamp and stamp image
2. Pour embossing powder onto image while it is still wet.
3. Tap excess powder off sheet and put back into jar.
4. Heat until powder melts and becomes shiny.

Recently, I have gotten a BIG scrappy haul for myself and although I'm feeling a bit OTT, but I'm loving every moment of it :) Which gal doesn't? :)

So, here's a peek of what I pampered myself with. A gal can never have too much scrappy goodness right?

Just this morning I told myself, I will not buy anymore stamps until year end as I have tons of red rubber from Unity and feeling a little addicted & slightly obsessed. ;) But I got mail today regarding this.

Robert from Unity Stamp is sick and Angela's doing a sale to help with the expenses. So, how can I say no to such a good cause?





 I've ordered mine. Order yours today.

YES!!!! I have waited 8 months for this and YES...
