Cute Cards

Sharing more whipper snapper cards.  I am getting addicted with these stamps.

Happy halloween!

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!

Best Creation & Whipper Snapper Stamps

This Whipper Snapper stamps are so cute!  And it really goes well with Best Creation glittery papers! Check out the Best Creation blog to see all the cards created by the design team.

Me & My friends

Sharing my take on My Mind's Eye sketch challenge this month.  I really loved this color combo and this Bloom and Grow line.  Here's to 10 years of friendship and still counting!   I miss you guys.  See you soon again.

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!

'D Boys

These are the boys who bring so much joy in our life,  lots of laughter, headaches, mess and shrieks of joy.  When together, just imagine the riot in our house.  Oh we love these boys.  My son Zid with his cousins - Migs, Wacs and Bins.

Best creation Autumn Splendor papers are perfect for any day occasion pages, either a girly page or a boyish page.  I even mixed the Halloween paper in this lay-out. 

Here's a close up:

Materials:  Patterned Paper: Best creation happy halloween GP 446, Basic Glitter paper (inverted), Autumn Splendor GP 417, GP 412, GP 410; flower: prima, epoxy stickers: Best creation, punchers: Martha stewart, adhesive: helmars.

Here's my newest lay-out for Inkido.  The autumn papers are perfect for any occassion pages.  My nephew Bins is already 4 mos and getting heavier each day, not to mention getting cuter too by the minute.

I fussy cut the flowers for some flower cluster with metal embellishement and pearls, all from inkido.

Coastal Clean up 2010

Last weekend, we joined a hundred of University of the Philippines students, divers and environmentalist to take part in the Coastal Clean up.   This clean up is organized by Dive Republic and was held at Outrigger Resort in Anilao, Batangas.
This year,  I didn't join the divers and my husband for the  underwater clean up.  Instead,  I joined the swimmers as I teach awareness to Zid.  I miss diving of course, and yet,  bonding with Zid was more important.    And you can see it really shows in our photo together.

and my two wacky boys!

Thanks for dropping by and hope you had wonderful weekend too!
