Happy birthday!!!!

Hello everyone, it has been a while since I upload a card.
Life has been very crazy since I got back.
I have taken 2 trips with family already. I went to Singapore and Malaysia in early Augs. Then just last week, I went to Taiwan for a few days. I enjoy both trips very much just because of the people who I was with.
But, something happened a couple of days ago made me sad, one of my relatives passed away. All that happened too suddenly and it takes time to digest.
Anyway, let not talk about that. I have a birthday card to share.
It is my time to host a challenge this wednesday over at TLL. This time I challenge you to make a birthday card.
I made this card for my uncle's birthday and I really hope he likes it. I used a Clown AJ image. I think he is really cute.
Here are the picutres of my card:

An entire view of the card.

Closer shot of card.

I hope you all like my card. And I am sorry I haven't been around.

I am back on track and I will update in a couple of days.

Thank you for stopping by, and your continueous support!!!

**Big hugs** Noreen

呢張咭係我送比我uncle既....

你覺得靚唔靚呢???

下次我整張比你呀!!!!好無呀??

Safe and sound!!!!

Hello all,
I don't have a card to show today, instead, I would tell you a little about my last couple days!!!
I have yet to find my card reader. =(
I left Canada on the 2nd and arrived safely in Hong Kong on the 3rd.
Almost my entire family went to the airport to pick me up.... Very very touching moment.... Of course I cried so so hard when I see my beloved fam.
Then we gave a suprise birthday party to my second mama (aunt). IT was so much fun!!!!
Yesterday.... I went to get a make over. LOL. Not really... but literally.... My aunts bought me so much clothes to wear, so that's a new wardrope. And I cut, permed and dyed my hair. Nothing very dramatic, some highlights and shorten the hair. AND I LOVE IT!!!! Will show you pictures later.
Last night we had our 1st big family dinner, yum yum yum. Thank you all my love ones and especially my daddy!!!
After dinner, my and all my cous went to Kareoke. Woo, that was really really fun!!!! All the older ones didn't get home until 5:40 A.M. (Including me) ooppsss!!!

I am having so much fun and just love to be home. I truly truly have the most amazing family ever in the entire world. I love you all. Though, wanna know something really not cool. I only slept for 6 hours in total since I got back, not because of the jet lag.... I just couldn't sleep because I have so many people to see and so much to do. LOL.

Anyways, I hope you are enjoying your summer wherever you are. It is HOT HOT HOT in HK. TOO hot and humid. But it's better than cold snowy weather!!!!

With lots of love,
Noreen
