Featured blogger

Hello bloggers,

Hope you are doing well...

I have been missing in action as we were away for a short trip to Vietnam - time permitting I will try and post some pictures.

Now to the featured blogger of the month - it is Charlene of http://www.paperandinkplayground.com/

She makes awesomely clean and stylish cards and often includes yummilicious recipes of food in her posts just to name a few. Her cards are one of a kind and I simply love them.

Do visit her and take a tour of her blog - you will be the richer for visiting her lovely blog and surely you will find something that interests you.

I will come and do my rounds soon - since I plan to sort out the laundry later rather than sooner (knowing me!!!) Lol.

Hugs and TGIF,

Monica

It is Charlene's blogaversary this month so I have just copied her post to share the details of her rather tempting blog candy.

About Me

My name is Monica and I am a mother to two lovely girls aged 22 and 14. We moved back to Singapore in June 2014 after having lived in Jakarta, Indonesia and Mumbai. I have a background in Psychology and Sociology Honours along with a post grad diploma in Journalism. I used to work in direct marketing for a premium hotel in India before I decided to become a stay at home mother. I have been creating and selling greeting cards for charity since 17 years. I often use unusual packaging material on my cards to respect and care for the environment. Presently, I share my cards as well as the proceeds from their sales with a shelter that houses and supports abused women in Singapore. Besides this, I run an initiative (UNITED WORLD SANCTUARY - UWS) on meditation, wellness, art and culture. You can find my page on Facebook under the name of UNITED WORLD SANCTUARY-UWS. I also hold mindfulness/wellness workshops for parents in my younger one's school. Besides, I hold Mindful Art and Card workshops for mothers and children.
