Boo!

Halloween is just 2 weeks away so I decided to play with my Halloween pics from 2 years ago and with more inspiration from the latest Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge sketch...this is what I came up with:

Got my journaling from a quote I found at Facebook... I really love it!!!

Here's the sketch and I hope it inspires you too!

I had fun playing with my halloween scrap stuff so expect more halloween layouts from me. I love it that it doesn't get outdated! Gotta go! It's going to be a busy week again for me!



Wonderful Sweet

We have a new challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge, and its a sketch challenge this time. Here's the sketch for you...

And here is my take...

Simple Stories' Summer Fresh is just perfect for summer photos! Here is Ally enjoying some time on the hammock. I hope you can join our sketch challenge this month. Details can be found HERE!

Speaking of Summer Fresh... here's another layout using the same line...

This time this layout is a "just because" layout, no challenge or sketch is involved in this one. Made it last Aug during a scrapping spree with the LB Scrapaholics. This is the first time that Julia tried drinking coconut water so this photo is definitely scrap worthy!

Growing Up Beautifully

I'm happy to share with you another layout...

Title: Growing Up Beautifully

Journaling: Can't believe that my firstborn is almost 10!

Used the beautiful WP Everyday Poetry with a bit of Western Romance.

This time around, this layout is inspired by a sketch from Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge...



Do join us for this challenge, all you need to do is create a layout based on the sketch above! Full reveal HERE!

This one's for Max!

We have a new challenge up at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and its all about pets! I've been wanting to scrap about Max, our beagle so this is the perfect opportunity.

My DD Ally had her eyes on a puppy, and she wanted a beagle.She initially wanted the pet as a gift for her 6th birthday but the wait seems so long coz she just turned 5 years old at that time. To cut the story short, we got Max in November, which is 8 months ahead of her 6th birthday.

Here's my layout for you Max!

I hope you can join our challenge, its your chance to scrap about your beloved pets!

Hello Summer!!!

I know it's not summer here, its actually raining outside but I have lots of summer pics to scrap. LOL!
Anyway, another challenge is up at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge. We have a sketch this time so you can use whatever pics you have in your stash.


Here's the sketch:

Here's my layout:





Obviously I am loving Simple Stories' Summer Fresh...
I hope you can join us for this challenge! Looking forward to your layouts!

My Girls and their Daddy

This post is dedicated to the father of my children...we can't thank you enough for everything that you have done and everything that you have given us. For fixing things in the house (yes you are our handy daddy), for cooking our favorite steak and lechon roll, for teaching the girls how to brush their teeth, for helping Julia in her Algebra worksheets, for spoiling us, for being our defender at all times, for the unconditional love, for being our shoulder to cry on...and the list goes on! WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, more than words can ever, ever, ever say!

Title: No.1 Dad

Used kit by April Lim

Journaling: Anyone can be a father but it takes someone special to be a Dad.

The challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge is all about dad...I hope you can join in the fun! I'm pretty sure you'll be taking pics of this special day so this is the perfect chance to scrap those pics right away!  Link up your layouts HERE! The sketch for this challenge follows...feel free to interpret it any way you want.

This next layout is a "just because" one. Made it for the Creative Scrappers' recent Sunshine Crop.

I got this quote from Julia's Total Girl School planner and I think its sooo cute! Used This and That Graceful for this one.

Have a great day and an even greater week ahead!

The Month of June

The month of June means its back to school for the kids here in the Philippines but worldwide, its a popular time for weddings....this is our theme at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge. The challenge is all about weddings.

I scrapped about our recent wedding anniversary. Here's my layout using the beautiful Victoria Garden line from Echo Park.

I really hope you can join our challenge!!!!! Have a great weekend peeps!

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.

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!

Girlfriends since 1985

Our challenge for you at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge is all about girl scouts or girl groups. The challenge is inspired by Baden Powell Day which falls this February 22. Baden Powell was the founder of Boy Scouts, and his sister Agnes was the founder of Girl Guides. Scrap a memory of you in Scouting or Girl Guides (brownies, Sparks, Guides, etc.) or a memory of a group you belonged to when you were a child or teen. You may include a momento or journal a memory of what belonging meant to you.

Here's my layout....

I scrapped about my girlfriends from high school! We officially became close friends since freshman year. High school is definitely the time when friendships really become established. I'm so glad that we have remained friends ever since even if we are no longer physically close.

I used Websters' Pages Trendsetter for this one and attempted the clean and simple look.

Aside from the theme, please also use the sketch below:
