Birthday Celebration

Haiz... I finally no longer in twenties.... Getting old but my heart is still forever young.
This year I had a great celebration.
I got my first birthday present from Lovely Nana. A cross stitch bag... haha I grumble at her why she never sew it before giving it to me.

Next my ex-colleagues cum sisters, Agnes, Shyling and Bao Xuan had specially ask me out to have dinner and got me a cake... How sweet they are, even busy still remember to celebrate with me.

Pretty cake to mark my 30th Bday

My Lovely sisters... too bad Yola unable to come:(

Trying to capture my special guest Mr Steven

We really had a super nice dinner at chomp chomp, where i can eat lots of local dish. Haiz despite I just recover from diarrhoea my mouth still don't "behave".

The next day when I'm back to office, my lovely colleagues had put up celebration for me & Eva.

Eva & Me

Seriously need to special thanks Pei Shan for always been so enthusiastic to organise it.
Really great to have such lovely colleagues.

But why my birthday wishes all put in the burger shape tag huh.... (*o*)
Trying to hint me stop eating so much before I become like a burger?? (-_-`)

Best of all, Hubby had bring me to Genting Highland to celebrate my Bday. I need to specify clearly, I'm not a gambling queen. I love there becos it is cooling and able to enjoy the theme park. What more can consider go oversea to celebrate Bday like very Atas... hehe
We make the choice to go by coach from WTS, (really good service and comfy) , even though need to wake up super early ( bus move all at 6am), but I think whole trip is pleasant. Especially the pick up point is at causeway point which is only walking distance from my home.

The first day when we reach, we go touring around Genting as I had not been there for years... of cos at the same time walk around the casino.
Looking forward for the 2nd day as it shall be my bday, I would like to have fun at the theme park. Theme park ticket is rather cheap, RM59(S$24.60) for all parks (indoor & outdoor) ride. Feel so young when I'm on the rides, screaming and laughing throughout.
Must try ride is " Flying Coasters" where we lie down in superman position and flying up and down the roller coaster. Grand Prix Kart is another nice one to challenge every one.

Really had a great Bday celebration this year especially when I'm back and check my Facebook, so many people had send me birthday wishes privately despite they can't write on my wall post. (Anyway had corrected the setting so that my lovely friends able to write on my wall)


Once again, I really thanks all my friends, colleagues and sisters that make my 30th Birthday a special one.

Garden Theme Scrapbook Shadow Box

I finally complete my shadow box. It is a simple things but during the process lots of ideas keep popping up in my mind.

I like something that is more girlish and can reflect my mood of love.

The shadow box was bought from ikea, can't remember how much it cost. The moment I see the box, I just feel it can be a wonderful piece to put me n Alan photo in it. A 50"x50" frame should be big enough to put lots of photo is my first idea.

Well eventually I only printed a S8R photo as it is more easily available and looks outstanding.

I start decorating by getting 3 bunches of flowers from daiso. As a total beginner, I start to buy lots of items from popular, such as glue, glitters etc.
To have a good background to start with, a green cardboard was use.
The fence was made from the balance cardboard I had and paint it brown to make it outstanding.

Leaves, Flowers were added on it to give a more greenery look and like it had out grown. The butterfly you see on the right hand side was printed from the internet. And i simply had pink glitters to outline it and the body was fill with silver glittering. the Filler was made of pearl to give an elegant look.

A similar larger butterfly was also done in the same way at the top left hand side. But this time round the outer layer was sprinkle with Glow in the Dark glitter. To make in more outstanding, gems were added and filler was also made of pearl except I painted it using nail polish.
A short Journal Tag was added to stated the feeling of that day.

On the top right, I added a few more flowers and leaves trying to get the feeling that it is branches out from a tree. And from it There is two lovely birds in the birdcage. A string of pearl was added to give the elegant look. Simply love it as I hand cut out the birdcage and added a pink paper at the back to bring out the cage.

And most important is the photo. Having a background border will help to give the center of attraction to it. Adding my photo border with lace to give the extra sweet look.

 Here a short video taken to see the overall shadow box.

 Hope I can made more of this and decorate my house. ^_^
