Island Girl

To say that I am pressured to scrap last year's summer photos is an understatement. LOL! Slowly but surely I am making a dent on my photos and my scrap supplies. Yey, that means I can buy more!!!

Here's a layout uof Julia from our Bora trip last summer. It is based on Prima's March Build-A-Page....

And here's the sketch to inspire you....

Thanks for looking! I'm off to scrap summer photos even if its raining outside!!!

Kids are almost out of school....

Yipee! Kids are done with exams... they just have to go to school for other stuff like practice for recognition/moving up day. Lazy summer days are definitely here! I'm not so sure if this means I'll have more scrappy time. Let's just wait and see.

Anyway, a new challenge is up at the Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and its all about Easter Memories. Here's my layout.

I've been with the LB Scrapaholics since 2007 and we've been having our Easter Egg Hunt ever since! Indeed it is now a tradition that we plan to keep.

 I hope you can join in the challenge. C'mon I know you still have Easter photos to scrap! LOL! Details can be found HERE.

Being a Mom

The journaling focus at Once Upon a Sketch is all about something that we are good at. Here's my layout...

I'm not saying I'm perfect but I know I'm trying my best to be a good mom to my girls! I used a mix of Crate Paper's Random and Emma's Shoppe pps and I'm loving the bright but vintage look. Our picture was also taken using the Ipad and I used Snapseed to edit it.

Celebrate!

Julia turning nine years old last year is indeed a good reason to celebrate. I recently scrapped this layout using pictures from her week long celebration of sorts.

I used here a mix of different lines from Websters' Pages. I was actually inspired to scrap these pics because of the challenge at Scrap the Girls!

It's another freaking scrappy challenge...

Another challenge is up at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and it's all about taking a break.

March is the month where school children have a spring break in Canada. The challenge is to scrap some memories of a spring break (or another school break) that you experienced. We don't have spring break but we do have semestral or sem break in October. Here's my take on the challenge:

Title: Sem Break

Journaling: No need to wake up early and no assignments for a week coz its sem break!

(Oct 2011, @home)

Hope you can join us for the challenge...details are all HERE!

Almost Summer...

Welcome March! This means that summer is almost here. I've been seeing blue skies from our bedroom window for the past few days and I like it! Here's a summery layout...inspired by my mood and by a PageMaps sketch.

Title: Hello Sunshine

Journaling: Julia & Ally playing in the sandy shores of Bolinao (Aug 2011)

Used one of my favorite summer line: 100 Days of Summer by Simple Stories

Here's the sketch:

Hope you have a scrappy weekend ahead!
