Let's Start Reading Real Books!

I need to read more. I used to be a bookworm back when I was in school, but sadly, nowadays most of my time is spent in front of my pc. I don't read newspapers or watch news on tv because most news make me feel upset. 


Anyway, I love Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta series. I don't really remember if I've read all the novels in the series, though. It's been a while. By the way, if you didn't know me any better (I guess Yenny knows this, she's my bff so she should know!), I don't really believe in buying books. I know a few friends of mine, who'd definitely disagree with me on this, namely Ane, Shemah and Yenny too! Lol!


I just won't buy books, especially fictions. Recently, lady luck was with on that day when one of my customers, Kat, tweeted that she's looking for any Patricia Cornwell's fan. I was like, me!! Then, she asked if I want 2 of Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta novels, namely Post Mortem and All That Remains. Of course, I said yes. Apparently, she bought those books secondhand, and forgot that she has read them before.

So thanks Kat for the books and the cute buttons too! :) Maybe I should spend some time reading today.

Casino Themed Cake & Cupcakes

My best friend, Yenny is looking to buy cakes and cupcakes for her wedding. I was browsing around for ideas when I saw this awesome casino-themed cake. There are also casino-themed cupcakes, which are really cool!

Baking is definitely a type of craft. If I could bake and decorate, I would definitely bake cakes, cupcakes and cookies. I would experiment with every theme that I can think of. I would make gorgeous cakes and perhaps, sell them and start a business!

A casino-themed party would be great for Yenny's hen night. It would be a fun-filled party, with lot of food, drinks and what else? Casino games, of course!

I was thinking of visiting a website, where I can find guideline to the best online casinos on the Internet. By using the list, I'll be able to make sure that the online casinos, poker rooms and gaming sites are verified by their members, before I practice my gaming skills at the party.

I wish there's a way to visit a virtual casino online. Don't you think that would be fun?

PLUS Mini Glue Tape

Some of my friends asked me whether I use glue or double-sided tape when making cards. My answer would always be double-sided tape! They're convenient and not messy like glue, although sometimes I like using glue when I'm almost out of tapes.

However, I've found these inexpensive, permanent disposable glue tape. The brand is PLUS and it's made in Japan. The one in the photo is 6mm wide and 10 metres long. For only RM3.99, I think it's definitely a steal! I've also seen a few other brands at Popular, but they're a bit more pricey. 


This glue tape is perfect for making cards and scrapbook layouts. It is also suitable for photo albums and archival materials. Works like a correction tape, it's really easy to use compared to conventional double-sided tape.

I'd recommend using glue tapes to all crafters, especially those who make and sell handmade cards. Happy crafting! :)
