I'm Back!

Its been three weeks since I last shared a page and its been more than a week since I last scrapped too. I was literally OUT most of the time since my brother came home for vacation. His three weekends were fully loaded with family bonding and gatherings, while I had tons of photos taken, I can't wait to scrap them all. Well, its GOOD to be back... and I just missed blogging!



Boy Thing! Here's a page I did for Lorenzo when he lost his lower front teeth in July. I am excited because this just showed that my little boy is growing up. Many things changing about him and I have to document them all. I used here Bazzill scalloped cardstock, My Little Shoebox pps Away we Go- Let's Ride and Vroom!, Kaisercraft crafter's acrylic paints, Tim Holtz's journaling tickets, Fancy Pants buttons, baker's twine, American Craft Dear Lizzy's phrase stickers, Tattered Angels marshmallow glimmer mist, AAS letter foam stickers and Jenni Bowlin's letter stickers.

Please watch out for my first reveal at Sketchabilities on October 15. We prepared new and exciting sketches for you scrapbooking addicts. I'm heating up my mojo and hopefully be back in scrapping real soon... Thanks for looking!

Beach Time!



We've been vacationing for almost two weeks now, just making the most of my brother's one month vacation too. Our second weekend was spend in Laiya White Cove beach resort in Laiya, Batangas. TRIED to enjoy even though we had a family emergency, my cousins and nephew had a car accident on their way to the beach. We are so thankful nothing serious happened to them in spite the total wreck condition of their car.

On a lighter mood, I want to be positive! I have a lot of photos to scrap! Getting ready for my sketchabilies assignments and doing a few pages for my brother and his dog Jack. It's exactly 10 days left to bond with my brother, so I better start scrapping... tomorrow!

Thanks for looking as always!

What's UP!

Been out of town for 3 days with the whole family and of course, we normally run to the north for some COLD weather! Baguio will always be a second home to me and my family, and it never runs out of thrill and excitement to my kiddos. My brother is here for more than week already and it has been 10 full-packed days of fun and travel... 2 more weeks to go!



I got some GOOD NEWS! My friends Helga and Doc. Ritz texted me while I was away, I made it to the DT call of SKETCHABILITIES! Yehey, I'm back to sketches again and I'm just excited!



This is all for now... need to organize my photo files, working table and my kitchen before I start packing again, this time we'll gonna hit the sun and sand. Thanks for looking!

Will be heading North this coming weekend and will be out until Monday, so please watch out for my post at Scrap Yourself. Happy Eid'l Fitr and Hari Raya to my Muslim friends! Hope you have a blast this weekend!

Caramaon...!

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

Last week was full of anticipation and preparations, but somehow it was FUN! It started off with a grand birthday celebration of a co-scrapaholic Ate Liezl. It was a whole day of bonding, eating and adventure. Let me share a layout I made as part of our birthday gift for this special friend...



Caramaon Fun! I love this picture of Ate Liezl and her 2 girls. I can just imagine how Caramaon looks like and excites people with her beautiful waters and beaches. I used here black cardstock, Webster Pages Seaside Diecut pps, Scenic Route pps, AC Thickers foam letter stickers, MM acrylic paint, Tattered Angel marshmallow glimmer mist, Miss Elizabeth 3D travel stickers, Kaisercraft pearls, Tim Holtz journaling ticket, ribbon, flower, abaca twine, AC stickers and AAS pearl gromets.

So, my brother is HOME for a month... so this means, I will always be on the GO and BUSY! We'll spend most of the time with him because he usually stays with us only one month in a year. Aside from me, my boys are also excited to be with him. Here's my goodies from brother Louie... thanks Kapatid!



Happy ME! Thanks for looking...
