WOYWW #132: Always Together

Its been a while  since I last joined in the bandwagon of Julia, showcasing our messy workdesks.   I wasn't able to show my workdesk today and leave you with my lay-out this week.

Hope you are all relaxed with all your christmas shopping.  I tried to finish it early  and still halfway through!

Have a great wednesday!

Thrilled!!!

It may be the longest day  I ever had.  Killing 7 hours was totally worth it - to be up close and personal with Nicholas Sparks!!!  He is one of my favorite novelist and my favorite novel of him will always be The Notebook, Message in a Bottle and now , "The Best of Me".
I mixed the "Forever Summer" with "Forever Santa" papers of Inkido.  The sparrow is from the 2010 Inkido Autumn paper.  I also made a tag and added in the lay-out.  Stamps from the tag are from inkido also.

Have a great Sunday!!!

Lil Hunk

My youngest nephew
cute, lovable and our lil hunk
Played with my collection of Best Creation papers and trying out My stamp box stamps as embellishments.

Have a great weekend!!!   Its getting cold each day even in Sunny Manila.  Just a few more days til Christmas!

Early Christmas

Just loved this Forever Santa line from Inkido.   Words are not enough to express how much  I love to play with them.  Hope you love too!

Have a great day!!!

For the love of Chipboard

I just love them -   dressed,  painted,  bare and altered. Here are my top ten projects  featuring the use of chipboards in no particular order.  Most of the time  I paint them and add texture with mixed media  or just keep them bare.   Sometimes the beauty of the chipboard comes with the inner beauty.

 altered dress form chipboard

 star chipboard covered with patterned paper and distressed:

 chipboards with art mediums

Here's my response for the Imaginarium Designs DT call.  Wish me luck!
Have a great weekend!

Bicolandia Album

Its been a month since we, the Darling Angels together with our loved ones had a great time in Bicol and Misibis Bay.  Now, its about time to document those memories  . . .

I created this mini album from the cardboards I have collected this year, and added bits and pieces of patterned paper in between the pages.  I really had a hard time choosing a few photos from 900 photos we had from our vacation.
Papers are mostly from jubilee collection of Best Creation and some scraps  I have.  I  really can't throw them out.  I love making tassels and you will see more of them on my projects.
Have a great week ahead!

A day of creative fun!

Its a rare moment to scrap with my son around. And more so,  almost a whole day of creative fun.  I finished a lay-out and our mini album from our last vacation.
Here's my lay-out using the Get Picky  anniversary sketch #13.

Loved this sketch and loved how my July 4th blended well with my chosen photos.

Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend!!!

More Christmas Cards

65 days before christmas and here's more christmas cards . . .

Playing with the new Christmas line from Inkido / Papercraft Scandinavia

Loved this new photo stamp.  Embellished with new harmony flowers and blings.

Thanks for the visit. 

Altered Bottle

I loved altering bottles and my little space is now crowded with my altered bottles,  all filled with yummy flowers and buttons for my crafts.

This time I used a tostitos salsa bottle and adorned with Inkido flowers and trims.  I made my own tassel and added it to my cutie patootie bottle.

Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend!!!

Shabby Tag

I had so much fun making this tag from scraps and after being inspired by Berry bleu tags,  I guess,  I would like to make more tags to adorn my own scrapbook pages.

Little did I know,  that making tags require as much patience and enthusiasm as making cards and lay-outs.

Thanks for the visit.
