The apples of my eye with Best Creation

My son and my nephews are my apples of my eye.  They give me so much joy and headaches too.  I love watching them grow through my pages and I hope when they are old,  they will cherish the albums I have made for them.
In this lay-out for Bins, I used the winter pages of Best creation. the papers are perfect even for non-winter and christmas theme.
The water fun papers are perfect for Wac's photo.  I just added a few buttons.
And for my third lay-out,  my new favorite,  I used the transportation line and made the mini banners using the glitter cardstock.  I loved how cute it turned out to be.

Thank you for dropping by and hope you had  a great weekend!

Candy Alert and lay-outs

This may be the first time I will be writing for both my design teams Inkido and best creation.  

First,  Inkido is having an international blog candy.  All the items from the photo above will be won by a lucky commenter and follower of Inkido blog. Blog candy is open until the 18th of November.  You may find all the details here.

And here are the lay-outs I made using Best creation papers.  Teresa and Joyce Lin rewarded us for publication.  For the first lay-out,  I used the transportation papers to highlight the first quarter results of Zid.

And in my second lay-out,  I used the water papers for Zid's underwater photo in Bantayan Island, Cebu.  I really loved this diecut papers.

Simply Me


I love the new papers of Inkido.  I know they are Christmas papers,  but its also perfect for any occasion subject.  Once a year,  I try my best to make a page just for me.  I have finished the page when I just realized that  I have used the same title  last March. Oh well, nobody's perfect right? 

I made handmade flowers and topped it with inkido roses and patiently designed into a scroll the pearls and bling from inkido.

Don't forget to visit the Inkido blog today for some inspiration.
Have a nice day!

Stamping and paint

I had so much fun playing with paint and stamps with Inkido.  In my first lay-out,  I painted my chipboards with paint and dried it with heatgun, creating a bubble texture and applied opal dusts for some shimmerz!  I really love using opal dusts in almost everything.


In my second lay-out,  I created a background using the script stamp of Inkido and layered it the sparrow and carte postale stamp. With a strip of paper, lace and flower cluster, the page is complete!
 and I recreated the lay-out background into an ATC. 

Don't forget out to check out the Inkido blog for lots of inspirations.

Happy Wednesday!

A creative weekend

This is the most productive and creative weekend I had.  I was able to make 2 lay-outs and 4 cards.  I enjoyed coloring the whipper snapper images.  However,  I can only share the two lay-outs.  The cards I can share  after they are already published  in the best creation blog.

I heart Pink paislee and just realized that I still have the spring fling line and lots of the old christmas papers that I have to consume.  In my pages here,  I mixed the old papers with their newer papers.
I just posted a new lay-out for inkido using art medium and the autumn papers.  Come visit the Inkido blog for lots of inspiration.

Have a nice day!
