My Little Helper

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

I know I am the worst blogger of all. Forgive me for that... I can't find a time to scrap with my busy schedule. It's good that my boss gave me 3 off days... yippeee!!!

Without further ado, I made this layout for Scrapilly Ever After. She-She is so good to send us a kit. Yeah, she send us all a kit to make a layout out of it. I just received mine on the 24th and I am suppose to send it on the 25th... yeah I know that's a pretty tough time to make. I am just lucky that 25th-27th are my off days. So here it is now... :)

Celebrate

Just want to share this layout I made for Johanne while playing piano at his tita's house in the Philippines. The photo was taken on a summer and not Christmas. I just thought of making it a Christmas layout for no reason... It's just how I like it to be...



This is the first time I used a paperclip on a layout. The paperclip is in a form of cloud :D

Thanks for looking!!!

Dream- card

I was inspired to do this card with Kaiser challenge board. In a board posted by a designer, she put a lot of photos there and scatter buttons and ribbons on a board. I saw this lady in one of the photos wearing this beautiful dress. From those things, I've decided that I wanted to make this one.

Bling it on at the Shoe

Ok, I know I'd been a very bad blogger for the past month. But I just got this awesome job and I am not very good at time planning. And there are times that I have to go home like 12:30 am...whew! It's been a very busy month for me and for the months to come so hope you guys bare with me on this. I will try my best to post at least once a week and even more than that if my time would allow it.

Well, just want to share this card I made for If the Shoe Fits Scrap it. The theme is about using lots of blings on any project. This is a very simple card but honestly, I love the simplicity of it.

Yesterday, October 1 was Children's day so my Johanne don't have school. Good thing it was also my day off from work. We went to Parkway Parade to eat our lunch...chicken rice as always, hahaha! After eating, we went to Marks and Spencer to buy our cookies and candies. Then we went straight back home and start munching our yummy goodies. While Johanne is having fun munching I remember that Sketchy Thursday have a second chance challenge on their blog and quickly grab the camera and took photo of Johanne and the candies. And this how it turned out. Thank you guys for looking!

Be inspired by hopping at MOJO Monday 104 where you can have a lovely idea every Monday for a new sketch for your card. And if you are looking for what color to use for the card, why not drop by at SPCC #15... I surely have fun playing on this both amazing sites and combining the challenges.



If you're wondering why I put Think as my sentiment, it is because inside you can always put----of me...because I am thinking of you. :D

Nursery 1

Time flies really fast. It was just like yesterday when I held Johanne in my arms and cannot even talk or walk. And it is also just like yesterday when it was me who's studying. But now, It is him. I can't believe that he is already Nursery 2. {I love you my baby... I know you don't want me to call you baby but you will always be my baby no matter what...ok?}

I made this layout for American Crafts Back to School challenge.
