Hope everyone's having a wonderful 2012 so far :)

Grab them quick before the offer ends on 31 January 2012 as we have to make room for new items from the upcoming CHA Winter 2012!

We'd also like to give a shout out that we'll be attending this year's CHA Winter 2012 show in Anaheim so be sure to join our Facebook page for daily updates from the show on latest releases, ideas and designs :) We can't wait!!!

Meet the Designers!

2011-06-01T12:43:00.008+08:00

Another bit of exciting news we'd like to share with you - introducing our talented local scrappers who are now part of our Design Team - Janiah Japar and Hilda Chan :)

When we first opened our doors, it didn't take very long for a lady named Janiah who was looking for something meaningful to do to fill up her spare time. To say that she is hooked to scrapping is possibly an understatement as Janiah is never selfish with her ideas, tips or tricks and she is also very passionate about scrapbooking and her love for Sizzix! Click here for Janiah's blog to read about her burgeoning accolades and be amazed by her gorgeous mini-album and layout :)

When two or more scrappers get together, you must have Hilda in your midst for she is just the life of any scrap event :) Hilda immediately went into fifth gear when she was first introduced to scrapbooking during one of our very first designer classes. Apart from appearing very exhausted physically (and emotionally!!) at the end of the day, she has not looked back since and her layouts is just merely a testament of what she is more than capable of achieving. As Hilda's blog is still under construction right now, she's more than thrilled to share with you just some of her work :)

Welcome on board, ladies. Glad to have you with us :)

Have a safe weekend!

More than one reason to be HAPPY!!

2011-05-15T17:34:00.003+08:00

Blogger's been down for the past few days which made sharing happy news with you a little difficult.

We hope scrapping has been productive for you this week and let us tell you why you should be happy :)

Oh, Sweet Sunday!

2011-05-02T00:07:00.006+08:00

The participants for Lia's first "Sweetest Days" class were filled with as much enthusiasm as when they signed up! With seats being sold out in under 48 hours, we unfortunately, had to turn away people who walked in at the last minute :( Sorry, ladies. We hope to be able to accomodate for more in future.

It was a first for us to have a designer on webcam while the class was ongoing. Eventhough she wasn't with us physically, Lia still managed to give some handy tips and with the aid of clear written instructions - everyone thoroughly enjoyed working on the kit at their own pace. She also surprised the participants with a bonus Maya Road Tag she created while everyone had their heads down, deep in concentration!

Lia was kind enough to send over the original project. It felt like I had laid my eyes on the Holy Grail as I opened the package!! It's even prettier up close!

A bunch of thrilled scrappers albeit pressed for time to stick down any pictures, they did an awful lot of creating in one afternoon! 'Twas FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

Getting into creative gear

2011-04-30T12:35:00.002+08:00

Hey peeps!

Both Lia's classes sold out pretty quickly so if you didn't get to sign up - we hope you'll get a chance to next time. And for those who are attending, you'll be in for a real treat :) *hint hint*

Curious to know what's arriving soon? How about some Bazzill, Fancy Pants, Making Memories and everyone's favourite - K & Co!!

Check back here soon for more updates :)

Safe and happy weekend, everyone!

For Mum

2011-04-20T23:38:00.007+08:00

*Update: SOLD OUT*

Don't miss this fantastic workshop, peeps! With (hopefully) good internet connection, Lia will be able to join us via webcam during both classes :) And remember - SEATS ARE LIMITED!! Call us at 242 4440 for any further inquiries.

Happy weekend :)

Canvas Banner

2011-03-31T12:23:00.003+08:00

I was looking at Making Memories' canvas banner from their latest Dilly Dally collection. It's just odd to have to use the word "Spring" in this part of the world where it's more like "summer" all year round. So I made a few changes :)

I immediately fell in love with the long brown tulle!

Instead of using the word "Spring" provided for in the kit, I cut out the word "SHABBY" in chipboard using Sizzix's Serif Essentials font and gave it a nice coat of acrylic paint similar to the store's shade of green.

I just love the little charm that hangs off the ends :)

Get your canvas banner today and we'll cut out for you any six chipboard letters/numbers in Sizzix's Serif Essentials font FOR FREE while stocks last!!! (paint is not included)

Toodles!

Sharon came and went in what seemed like - to most of us, a flash! She sounds like one of us now, saying names like 'Supasave' and 'Beribi'!!!

Of course the scrappers had loads of fun and laughs! Not forgetting the obligatory lucky draws! Sharon is just so generous that way and luck was definitely on Elina's side when she won a huge bag of flowers! Paper ones, of course :D

The only slight problem here is that everyone was either too busy scrapping or laughing that we forgot to take pictures! *smack forehead*. Anyone of you who has any pictures and would like to share them with us, please email us :)

So, would you like Sharon to come back again? Let us know who else you'd like to see here at Shabby Chic :D

Wishing all you terrific scrapping mothers out there a great weekend!

Til then - toodles!
