October is here!

It's the first of October...and its my birthday month, it also means Christmas will be here before we know it. Sadly though, Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy locally) brought severe devastation to the country. So many people have lost their homes and some even lost loved ones. Let us all continue to pray for those who were affected and also pray that the new typhoon Parma who's supposedly on its way here doesn't cause us more trouble.

On the lighter side of things... here are some layouts I finished recently.




Did this for Moments Recorded Challenge #16. A sketch was provided and book paper, staples, masking tape, and paint should be used.
Title: Sophie and Ally
Journaling: When you started school, you refused to be left behind BUT things changed when you became friends with Sophie. Now, the two of you are inseparable. Everyday after school, you play together in the swing. sophie is your 1st best friend. (DCL Playground, Sept 09)




That's Julia on her birth and her first bath ever! Can't help but feel sentimental while doing this layout coz my baby is now 7 years old! This is for Dotty Divas challenge #3. The challenge is ad-inspired. You can see the ad and the details here.


A little close-up:






And this one is for Kaya challenge for September. The good news about this layout is... I WON in the random drawing!!! Yipee!
Title: Pasta Night
Journaling: I’m not an expert when it comes to cooking but I try my best to come out with something new. Tonight I experimented with chicken thigh fillet and some pasta. It must have been good coz Julia said…”mommy’s cooking is the best!” Now, we have “pasta night” at least once a week! (12Sept2009)

I'm now working on the ScrapMuse October kit which is filled with lots of YUMMY stuff!!! Stay tuned for the layouts!
