DT Layout - Scrap It Lah

A new wonderful challenge for you at Scrap It Lah. This time you are to use the initials of the challenge, yes S.I.L. First I was lost, I wanted to be more funny, but just couldn't. However, I found a nice picture of my hubby and son sailing in Langkawi, Malaysia. Then it was clear, S.I.L, Sailing Is Life. Now take the chance and be more funny than me and check the other DTs, they where definitely more clever than me, LOL!! This month GDT is Wati from Singapore, she is a fantastic scrapper.

Recipe Card!

Thank you all so much for your kind comments. I just got my internet connection back, so I haven't been able to visit you, but I will do that soon, promise! Today I have a card for you for the A spoon full of Sugar challenge, Kitchen/cooking. I made a recipe card, with my wonderful helper Josephine's best cake, chocolate cake!

I invited some girls over on Friday to sell my cards for the benefit of the Chin (Myanmar) refugees here in Malaysia. I managed to sell for 900RM (about 260USD) and I will give it all to the Chins, I work with this group helping them with handicraft. They, themselves make cards, bookmarks, beautiful bags, table mats and more to be able to survive here they need to sell their products on various occasions such as bazaars. I think I sold around 45 cards and above you see the tags I made for the prices.

DT Layout - Scrap it Lah October

The word is Simple. That's the challenge at Scrap It Lah this month, just as simple as that, just like my layout. Let the photo talk, I thought. A gorgeous Orchid from my garden, one of the advantages living in the tropics, all these beautiful flowers! Pop over to SIL and join the us for a Simple journey!
