Loving life

the best thing that ever happened to me are my boys.  I really am loving life with them by my side.

Lay-out is inspired from CSI #22.  Papers are from Best Creation and totally perfect for my boys picture. 

Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend!

Sasha

Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice

For a cute baby girl on her baptismal day next month. How I wish  I can travel with the lay-out all the way to Australia.  Maybe next year,  I will see you Sasha.

I played with my inkido,  best creation and webster pages.  All my favorite papers and with misting and opal dusts.  Loved the creative process.

Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend ahead.

At the Zoo

Happy Sunday, everyone!  Its been a productive weekend for me.   I am trying to finish all my backlogs  before we have another vacation to scrap and not to mention  everyday moments  that is worth scrapbooking.  
Here's another photo  from our Singapore trip last year.   I played with three of my favorite manufacturers -  Pink Paislee, Websters Pages and Best Creation.  I hope  I get to finish our Singapore album  before its anniversary in May. (  I hope so!)

Supplies:  Patterned paper - Pink paislee, Websters Pages, Best Creation; chipboard - Maya road, flower - inkido, tools - Martha stewart

 Close up on chipboard with embossing powder and opal dusts.   I sprinkled embossing powder  while the paint is wet and use the heat gun on the chipboard.  Thus, the effect of bubbles.

Thanks for the visit!!!

You rock!

My son and his friend Fonz (actually my friend's son)
Both rock lovers  and cool!

I did some misting and masking  and some mixed media on my chipboard.  Painted  and heat emboss the chipboard before adding some stickles.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

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!!!

Christmas in September

 Christmas is just around the corner.  The season of giving, sharing and loving.  Actually,  everyday should be christmas season!
Before the holiday hustle,  I'd better start making my christmas cards and christmas list and start shopping.  I don't want to join the christmas rush ( but always join them in the end!)

Here are some of my christmas cards this year,  more to share when I get some time to make more!
First set,  using the Best creation Christmas 2011 papers:

 And the last set,  using the summer 2011 papers of inkido,  who says you need christmas themed papers for christmas?

Let me be the first to greet you Merry Christmas!!!
Thanks for the visit!

Some news on a wednesday!

Hey there!!!  First I want to share that  I have finished my altered book.  Yeay!!!

I adorned it with Inkido papers and blooms.  Here's the book opened with some prayer notes inside.

a close up on the blooms in the corner

I would like to create another one that is if I can have the more patience in cutting the pages or I guess I should get a new cutter much better than the one I used on this one.

Secondly,  Inkido and Lady Bug and Friends.com merge into one company -  Papercraft Scandinavia.   One great union.  Check out the site and find out all the new products coming.  Just a hint,  you will love the new harmony flowers and fashion flowers.  Believe me,  I can't wait to get my hands on them!

And lastly, here's my  desk this morning,  its clean  since a long weekend holiday is coming in my side of the world and I will be on staycation.  Of course,  I would love to play with my stuff then  but with the boys around,  I don't think so.  Only my finished lay-out and the book I am currently reading are on my table. I finished this lay-out on last night and so glad my little boy didn't touch it when  a box arrived for me.

 and a closer look on my lay-out:



Supplies: Patterned paper - October afternoon, best creation, chipboard - best creation, stickers - best creation.

Thanks for reading all the way down.  Don't forget to check out Julia for more snoop!

Have a great day!

A productive weekend

Its been a productive weekend for me. I was able to make two lay-outs. Secret?  Kiddo is away with grandma!  Yeay,  mommy got all the me time!!!  I was able to finish my grocery, a visit to my best friend,  movie date with hubby,  night cap with hubby and lots of scrappy time.  Loved this weekend!  I do miss my grocery buddy though.  I know Zid had a great time too since I didn't get any calls from him.

Here's my lay-out inspired from the sketch at Get picky.

 isn't that gator so cute?

 I am also linking this boy page to Sandy's challenge #5.  Check out her blog and you will be impressed with my friend's creativity.
And here's my 2nd lay-out I finished this weekend,  hubby helped me in the photography and I guess he loved the design since he didn't made any comments.  He just smiled at it.

Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend.
