To end this blog, <a href="http://chowchowscraps.blogspot.com/"> I </a>would have to start from the beginning. <a href="http://chowchowscraps.blogspot.com/">I</a> have started this blog together with<a href="http://teacherjessy.blogspot.com/"> Jessy</a> which you all know as <a href="http://teacherjessy.blogspot.com/">Teacher Jessy</a>. The whole purpose of this blog was to attract more attention to and provide a platform for Malaysian scrapbookers. To this day, I honestly feel that we have achieved what we need to achieve. Scrapbooking is catching on in Malaysia and some of our Malaysian designers have made it to the international. For me, due to my family commitments, I would like to concentrate on my other pursuits such as painting, cooking and photography and hence, it is time to bid adieu to this Challenge Blog.<br />
<br />
I would like to personally thank all that have supported us through the years especially all the my DTs, sponsors and our loyal participants since our conception in April 2009. This will be our challenge on this blog and we would like to see more participants so that we go out with a BANG! Last month, we had a record of 15 entries. For that, we all at Scrap-It-Lah would like to thank you for making us a success last month.<br />
<br />
This month, we bring you another very talented scrapbooker from the Down Under. We hope that you will enjoy her challenge as much as all the DTs had. Here she is:<br />

I am truly honoured and really look forward to seeing what you all come up with!</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">My name is Helen Tilbury & I live in Durban, South Africa, with my scrap-tolerant husband Shane & our four children – Chelsea (18), Jack (16),Reilly (13) and Cami (11). I love all things paper-related and am also a keen photographer. I’ve been paper-crafting for 8 years now am showing no signs of stopping any time soon! In fact I have enough stash to start a store so I’m going to be scrapping the rest of my life just to get my money’s worth out of it.</div><br />
When I’m not taking photos, scrapbooking or blogging I’m doing stuff with the kids, taking them to their activities; extra lessons, sports matches or sleepovers! I love connecting with other bloggers from all over the world love that I have a huge bunch of online friends ; hope to travel the world one day and visit them all. When I’m not pursuing my passions or doing my “mum” job I love to relax with a magazine ; eat a delicious meal prepared by my hubs, who is a great chef…yes! I’m a lucky girl!!<br />
<br />
Currently I am designing for Colour Combos Galore, Inspired Blueprints, Once Upon a Sketch, Bird is the Word, Scrapbook Kits with Jules, Pretty Paper Petals and Scrap-it-Lah. You can find my blog @ http://helentilbury.blogspot.com.<br />
<br />
Back to the challenge now and a Big Thank you for <a href="http://helentilbury.blogspot.com/">Helen</a> for such a creative challenge. You will be pleased to know that you had some of your fellow DTs step out of their comfort zone for this challenge. :) Don't we all like a good challenge once in a while?

I rarely plan my pages – I let a photo or a patterned paper inspire me and I take it from there. I love the shabby chic and romantic style but I also enjoy working with bold patterns and striking colors. I’m an ink and paint type of person. I just have to get it a little messy to consider my page done. If I don’t have ink and paint on hand, then I just tear little bits of elements and stick it randomly for the sheer fun of it<br /><br />I am fortunate to be designing for Webster’s Pages, Fancy Pants Designs, and Lily Bee Designs. I was also named as one of the first two Prima Masters. I am also currently a designer for a wholesale store in Australia – Aussie Scrapsource. One of the things I consider to be among my accomplishments in crafting industry have been named as one of the 2008 Memory Makers Magazine Masters and I am thankful for the blessings which have come my way as an artist and will continue to be thankful for the happiness and fulfillment that I get from this craft.</i></span>"<br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Iris has given us an awesome challenge.

I'm a Mom to Luis Lauro Antonio and Lucian Lorenzo Roberto and married for 18 years to Dodo Lucido, a Government Aquaculturist. I work as a college Instructor teaching business courses.<br />
<br />
I am a certified Scrapaholic and an addict Scrapbooker since 2005. I started making pages in 1993 when my first child was born, not knowing that what I was doing was called scrapbooking. It was in 2003 when I met my bestfriend Timi and taught me the basics of this craft. Since then it became my deepest passion. I don't really know my style but I love sewing, paper tearing and painting. As of now, I am so eager to try new and different styles and learn more about this wonderful hobby. And since I have two sons to scrap, I fell in love with masculine yet dainty layouts.<br />
<br />
I am so grateful to be here to share some inspiration and to learn more things about our love for scrapping. Happy scrapping everyone!</i></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

My name is Azura Alyssa. I am from the sunny island of Singapore. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">I am down to earth, cheerful and loud. I always have crazy and fun ideas. My life circles around those who are close to me especially my family, my friends and of course my boyfriend. They are everything to me and they </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">always end up being the subjects to my scraps. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Scrapbooking is now a part of who I am. Its my own little retreat of being artsy fartsy. It makes me happy and that is all that matters. Being on the team is an honor for me. I wish that throughout my term I will keep you inspired and you will inspire me as well. Thank you. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><br />

I've started scrapbooking in 2007 and never turn back since and never stop creating. I don't have a specific style but love to trying out new ideas, new products and play with colors. I also like mini album which is a good escape for those photos of mine that have no place for scrapbook layout. I'm a working mom and basically only be able to scrap during my free time such as after my boys went to bed or weekend.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Today I’ll be posting the challenge in place of DT <a href="http://chowchowscraps.blogspot.com/">Michelle</a> as she is away at the moment. January seemed to have passed by in a breeze and we now enter the month of February. First of all, let me take this moment to wish a very Happy Chinese New Year to all those celebrating around the world. May the new year brings much happiness and prosperity to you and your family.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
As usual, February brings us the month of <span style="color: red;">LUURRVEEEE</span>.... And each year the theme is always <span style="color: red;">LOVE</span> for February and you'll see manufacturers left, right and center brings out Valentine's themed collections. There are almost always red or pink or shades of the two colours. This year for February, our DT <a href="http://scrappingwithnaddy.blogspot.com/">Nadia</a> has come up with something different. The challenge is to make a layout (12x12 or 8.5x11) with a lovey-dovey theme <span style="font-weight: bold;">WITHOUT USING ANY <span style="color: red;">REDS</span> OR <span style="color: #ff99ff;">PINKS</span> OR ANY SHADE OF THE TWO COLOURS</span>. How's that for a not-so-typical Valentine's challenge?<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande'; font-style: italic;">First up is DT Nadia’s lovely layout of her and her hubby<br />

</a>Do you know that January is the <b><span style="color: red;">NATIONAL HOBBY MONTH</span></b>? Isn't it great that we have a whole month to indulge in our hobbies? Well, technically anyways. So for January, I would like for you to make a 12x12 or 8.5 x 11 layout on your <b><span style="color: red;">OTHER</span></b> hobby(ies) apart from scrapbooking. The twist of the challenge is that you have to<b style="color: red;"> INCLUDE SOME KIND OF ELEMENT OF YOUR HOBBY</b> in the layout, not counting the photo. e.g. like me, I like beading so I can include beads in the layout. Or if you like swimming, then a water element should be included say a stamped or doodle of waves. Or if your hobby is shopping you can include tags from your purchases. </div></div></div></blockquote><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Here is DT Yatie's take on the challenge. She has very cleverly added elements of her other hobby which is beading onto her layout making it such a unique piece of work</i>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
