As much as I love lazy weekends, I also get the thrill whenever I get to do something new and be productive too. Can't really make up my mind, couldn't I? Guess, there are just days wherein I'd rather laze around the house and some days I enjoy going out, meeting new people and learning something new. Balance is always good. Well, last Saturday, I was back at the Canon Pixma Workshop to learn a new set of paper crafts! Together with a couple of bloggers and Canon fans, we created our very own 2014 calendar, a cute Bookworm Bookmark and for some, a 3D animal figurine. I was only able to do the first two and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. Hooray! I was also able to play around with the new Canon Mini Legria (S$429) which is the newest camcorder in the market. It's just about the size of a mobile phone or a car camera but as they say, do not judge a camera by it's tiny size. This little one comes with Ultra Wide Angle Lens, Wi-Fi capabiliti...

Last weekend, our dear friends C and I finally tied the knot. Paul and I were feeling a bit glum that we were not present to witness this beautiful union. As such, I kept myself updated by viewing all their lovely photos on Instagram. *sigh* Then, I had an idea. We should surprise them and welcome them back to Singapore as the new Mr. and Mrs. J! Now the question is…HOW??? I paced around the house trying to come up with an idea on what we can do that will surely surprise them. Remember that I recently made C a birthday banner so I needed to do something else. Then I thought of checking the Canon Singapore page out. *Ding!!!* Welcome to the Canon Creative Park ! I clapped my hands in glee and jumped around the house (okay fine..it’s more like prance around) as if I found a goldmine…well it sure does feel like it. Okay, now what to do? *rubbing her hands together* I just love how the website has ready templates and instructions for you to do your arts and craft projects. It ...

After attending the fun arts and craft workshop by Canon Pixma a few weeks ago , I happily went home with a spanking new printer. The total box weight was 11KG and despite having to taking the bus and to walk a short distance home, I didn't mind as Canon very thoughtfully provided us with a lightweight stroller too. How cool is that? You know the feeling of driving home a new car and you just can't wait for the moment where you'll take it out for a ride and there you'll get to discover more amazing things about it? That's exactly how I felt when Paul and I unboxed the Canon Pixma MG6370 printer. Let's look at it at face-value, I have to say that it was love at first sight. I couldn't stop admiring the beautiful white finish that just makes it look so classy. I placed it on top of our wooden TV cabinet and it just blended in just fine. The printer comes with a flatbed scanner, two paper trays and a touch-screen panel. Gone are the days of noisy print...

*reposted from the  Holiday Creativity with Canon Pixma website Don't you just love the weekend? I Do! Most of all, I love lazy weekends where no big agenda is lined up and you can just tinker around the house for as long as you want. Lately, I've been having lazy weekends where I get to sleep more, to catch up on my personal projects and just recently, to learn something new! No matter how old we are, I always believe that learning should go on forever and ever. A few weeks ago, I joined 9 fellow bloggers for an afternoon of arts and craft. This was organized by Canon and we got to try using a number of the Canon Pixma Printers on display. All I brought with me was an SD card and within minutes, I was able to print 3 of my favorite photos plus my very own logo on photo paper! It's cool that the printer has a slot for SD card as well as a USB port allowing you to print directly without connecting it to your laptop. I love arts and craft most especially when it g...
