Bad, good and a project!

As always, I'd been a very bad blogger. It's been a very busy year for me. A lot of things happened, good and bad. I've never been tired in my life! There were a lot of happenings at work, my dad passed away, I'd been very sickly myself so as my little boy. Even my husband had been very busy and tired from his new company. Ok, enough for the bad things. Let's have something to smile about. I'd been consistent "winner" at PRIMA! Yes! Jan, Feb, Mar, May, June, July... my layouts were featured at their site and April, was my month... I won the April BAP. It was such a great experience for I've never won before. Me and my hubby had been having lunch together most of the time which was so great. We've been watching movies at the cinema together and what's more??? Johanne's starting to enjoy watching with us too. Oh, and tomorrow is Johanne's 6th birthday and we will celebrate it at the Zoo. Not a big one though just a simple family day out :)Hmmm, what else is there for me to share??? Ok, I promise that I would give myself time to visit or share something on my blog at least twice a month. I need to have discipline on this one so I am starting now.

I would like to share with you all a little project I made 2 weeks ago. I use this one to submit at PRIMA's August PPP. Hope you will all like it as much as I do.

Dream Big

It's already March 2011 and it was July 2010 when I last posted something here on my blog. It sure is a long time. So, what made me post something today after that loooong months of not posting? Well, I happened to visit BO Bunny site and found that they are having a challenge. Yeah, that's right... a Challenge! And you guys know how I love to join challenges. It's called Layout Challenge Friday. The challenge is to tell something about yourself that they don't know. Easy peasy, right?

Here's my take:

(Materials used: Patterned paper- BO Bunny Gabrielle, Stickers-BO Bunny Ad Lib combo stickers, Ink-Ranger Distress Ink, Cardstock-American Crafts, Adhesive-Beacon 3in1)

Something that they don't know about me is I'd been wanting to be a model since I was a kid. The thing is, there's no way that with a height of 4'11" will ever become a model. Sad but true... but God is good all the time and he gave me a husband who loves photography! And that made me his in-house model :)

Thanks for looking!

Bliss

I know, i know, i know... I am a very bad blogger! But with the kind of schedule I have, whew, you will not have time to scrap as well. 8 straight days shift, well not always but it still made me feel so tired. And when you're tired, it's hard to think of a layout. Last night, i came to visit American Crafts before going to bed and all of a sudden, tada! It gave me an insipration. Sleepy, yes! But it only took me 30 minutes to make this layout.

Thanks for looking :)



Materials used:
Patterned paper: Spring Cheerful Cherry - American Crafts
Spring Dragonfly Dance - American Crafts
Chipboard : Dear lizzy + American Crafts

In your shoes

I love this photo of my niece and my sister. I love it more after making a layout of it. It wouldn't be as nice if it weren't for Pencillines Sketch 183.
