Scrapadoo FACELIFT 2007-02-12 02:16:00 <!-- google_ad_section_start (weight=ignore) -->
Scrapadoo has undergone a simple facelift and I hope you all like it!
Somehow, I have some trouble clicking "FOR SALE" using Internet Explorer and the alignment of the blog will all be messed up. I would suggest you to use Firefox if you are facing the same problem as I've mentioned with Internet Explorer.
Cheers to all!

Carpentry Work? NAH.... 2007-02-09 03:03:00 <!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) -->
I always see all this wooden stuff in art and craft shop and wasn't sure what I could do with it. I am very adverse to wood because I can only relate it to carpentry work which I don't know anything about it nor do I have the right tools to work on wood!
Anyhow, decided to just buy one for the fun and to experiment it. Here is my little creation
Better Quality than EVER 2007-02-06 22:08:00 I am pleased to inform everyone that the quality of the cards just get better and better!

What to expect in April 2008 2008-03-27 09:12:00 Apr 2008
1) A set of 3 gift tags named "Chalkboard Gift Tags", inspired by the traditional black board or chalk board used in school. I realized that most schools no longer use black boards and chalks, instead, they are using white board and markers. I do miss black board and chalks, although it can get a bit dusty, but the white chalks are great for drawing hopscotch pattern on the ground! Read more:April
