From Blogland to reality


Perth scrapper, Tanya Tahir
was holidaying in Singapore and a coupla of us Singapore scrappers 
were able to meet up with her in December.

On this day , we had lunch at Nando's , Plaza Singapura ,
after giving Tanya a little tour of the 2 fine LSS' that we have in one shopping mall ! ;) 


I have used a kraft cs background where  a variety of Tattered Angels' products were used to create my own 
patterned paper. I couldn't decide on any patterned papers to go with my fun set of Hello Kitty chipboard buttons by Such Sweet Tierney and decided to go with this custom made one . 
I was a little border punch & doily crazy here too . 

I made my first doily flower here with a Hello Kitty chipboard button for the center, 
& used some long forgotten Q&Co funky plastic flowers and brads. 
The BG doily background was already misted with pink Glimmer mist for an older layout too
 and I thought it came in handy here.

Layout design , inspired by The Scrappiest Sketch 98
