Revamping A Layout : Always and Forever

I finally decided to revamp one of our framed pictures at home.  It was year 2007 when I made the layout with only but few tools and materials.  As months and years passes by I get to acquire lots of items and was indeed opened to the real world of paper crafting.  Looking at my past layouts, I am itchy to revamp most of it and so I started with our simple wedding picture taken 2002 of September.

What made me decide to do revamping?  It's been ages since I did a traditional scrapbook layouts and I really have to spend time on this matter coz scrapbooking is how I started into crafting.

Welcome to Our Halloween

I know Halloween is over but I just want to share a very simple Welcome sign I made for my son's Halloween Birthday party last 30th of October.  The story behind is that when I finally realized that all decors are done and packed ... ready to be set up for my son's Halloween Birthday Party, it dawned on me that I don't have at least one decor for outside door of the venue and so I hurriedly grabbed my failed cupcake holder which I made using Happy Haunting cartridge.  I removed the stand coz that's where I made a mistake and simply transformd it into a WELCOME sign (layout).
