I’ve never really been a big fan of die cut machines despite trying Esther’s cricut before and Sheila urging me to try the Slice. I always thought it’d be a big hassle and preferred to settle with manufactured die cut pieces and such. But THEN, i finally got around to testing out the slice and now..i am in love.
The slice is so easy & quick and the end results are perfect, no strange excess bits hanging off your die cut. I played around with the wedding design card and conjured a die cut frame, flower motif and the very pretty “always” title with this magic machine and made a simple wedding card.
Can’t wait to spend more time with this wonderful gadget! One of the highlights of the Slice is that it works cordless for at least 90 minutes of cutting between charging, so it really is fuss-free.

Last year I worked with a 6×6 in minibook to record the highlights of the year. I was just thinking of doing something similar when I came across these page protectors.
Yesterday I started playing with them =) Other manufacturers have come up with similar products but since most of my albums are from making memories, this is the perfect fit.
Loads of space for journaling & photos and I think it will look great mixed up with full page layouts. Really fun doing tiny layouts!

Try using less busy patterned paper so your journaling will show up clearer!

Here it is, the completed minibook!  Most products used were from Sassafras’ latest collection & available at shop.smidapaper.com & cziplee plus , Bangsar.
Go ahead and e mail us with a comment or if you have any questions regarding this minibook; techniques, ideas or products. I will try to reply each e mail as soon as I can.

Thanks Esther, for sharing your pics with me! =)

I had the most fun doing this “Things You Do”  minibook of Andrew with the latest Sassafras papers & embellishments. I will post more pictures soon, but today I want to share yet another way to use your circle punches. Here as a base for layering and also as tabs. There are limitless ways to dress up your circles, with stickers, buttons and bling, and lined up on the side like this, they give a nice edge and a great alternative to flowers for boyish pages. Go ahead and try. Circle punches available here and Sassafras here.

I-Mei made this beautiful minibook from Maya Road’s butterfly acrylic album. It was meant to be a sample for CzipleePlus. I could hardly bring myself to part with it, so I took loads of pics and proceeded to make one for myself =p Here is I-mei’s original. I may post my ‘copy’ when it’s done. What do you think of this project being a class, or a kit? Let us know, and in the meantime, be inspired.

This weekend look out for the launch of our first ever ‘artist with soul kit’ - Reunion, with new ideas from our guest designer, Seang Ling. Some peeks from I-Mei & from me are already posted.
