sketchabilities # 41!

Its up and you can see the designer's inspirations here. Join us for another month of challenge and win exciting scrapbook goodies. In the meantime, here's my interpretation of sketch #41...




Rainbow of Friends... My scrapbooking buddies truly have unique birthday ideas and they make sure that you will be the happiest on your special day. Here we celebrated Dra. Chiqui and Ytet's birthdays at Sanctuario de San Pablo. Its such a nice place to create a rainbow of friendship! I used here Prima papers and flowers, cardstock, corrugated board, AAS gromets, fibers, lace, Ranger glossy accents and transparent letter stickers.

Just had my first PTC in school last weekend. I was so worried and nervous but it all turned out okay! Now we're heading towards the last quarter of the school year. It'll be exactly 6 weeks from now. At the same time, I am now busy preparing for little Lorenzo's 7th celebration. I need all the powers to do both Mommy and teacher duties, so wish me luck again.

Thanks for looking peeps!

Grow Slowly...

Grow Slowly... My Luigi is growing up to be a young man! Say I'm selfish but I wish you'll slow down and be my baby forever. I used here Websters Pages papers and Sparklers, White cardstock, Tattered Angel glimmer mist, Prima flowers, ribbons and lace, Tsukineko inks, Colorbox fluid chalk ink and Tim Holtz Distress Inks. I made some paper tearing and distressing on the mat of my photo. Then, I cut some flower-like patterns from Webster's Pages lefterovers and I had paper folding and layering to give it a 3D look. Overall, I have a pleasant feeling of creating a Webster's Pages papers on a boy layout... it was FUN!

This is my page for Iris Uy's challenge. I hope I did justice using my paper leftovers.

Thanks for looking and Happy LOVE day tomorrow!

Sketchabilities #40!

It's the love month and I can't believe we are on the second of the year already... time moves sooo fast! And I'm on my 7th page for Sketchabilities. Join our monthly sketch challenge and win exciting prizes, check it out here.



XOXO... Here's a photo of my Chuwee and his Dad having a little bonding time together. Its quite seldom to find a nice photo of the two boys and its great to capture it in scrapbook pages. I used here DCWV Green Stack pps, chipboard shapes, cardstocks, glittered glue, AAS recycled heart shape, and AC Thickers vinyl letters.

I am so high with scrapbooking this days, after I attended a class last weekend, I still feel like scrapping all the time. Unfortunately, its busy time in school and we are working on grades, grades and GRADES! I just wish I can have another ME time really soon! I am also excited for little Lorenzo's 7th bash and I'm working on a Toy Story surprise for him. Life is so tiring, but it is still good after all!

Thank you Lord! TFL as always.

Websters Pages Classes

I can't believe I was able to make Iris Uy pages!!! The LB girls attend her Websters Page Class exclusively here in Los Banos last Saturday, January 29. We had three pages to play with and we basically lifted her original pages plus a lot of new techniques and materials to be used. It was an afternoon of fun and scrapping, bonding and playing... wish ko lang maulit ulit! Now let me share my busy hands' creations...



Time with You... Its Mom and daughter time to take the center page, hehehe! Such a nice shot to scrap! Love the new things I made here plus the use of granular gel medium and mica flakes on the bird and his glimmery house. I used here white cardstock, Websters Pages pps and Sparklers, granular gel with acrylic paint and mica flakes, chipboard shapes, Adirondack acrylic dabbers, mist, Tsukineko inks, ribbons and Tim Holtz Distress Inks.





Heart with Joy... My second page was a shot of my two wacky boys in Tagaytay City after a lunch date with the family. Here we did some misting and stamping using Tim Holtz's Distressing Ink and water sprays. I used here Websters Pages pps and Sparklers, white cardstock, laces and ribbons, chipboard shapes, mists, Tim Holtz Distress Ink and Adirondack dabber, Prima flowers and Tsukineko ink.





My Love... Look at the blending of colors we did on our third page. We used the wonderful colors of Tim Holtz's Distress Inks and his blending tool and sponges. Plus another great technique with the use of gel mediums. Look at the centerpiece that we did as an accent which was adhered with the use of gel. I scrapped my two boys running and playing at the UPLB grounds after an all-day performance in school last January 27. For the materials, I used here Pink Paisley pps, Websters Pages pps, Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Adirondack acrylic dabber, laces, Prima flowers, AC Thickers chipboard letters, Tsukineko Ink and for the center embellishments I used safety pin, metal buttons and antique metal flower, beads and sequences, tule cloth and Tattered Angels glimmer mist.

Mr. Mojo is still here and my mind is still whirling with lots of ideas. I just wish I have the time to put them all in a white space! Iris left us with a little challenge on the left papers and embellishments all to be assembled on a white base. Oh well, mine is done but my eyes are still feasting over it. I will share it soon, promise!

My weekend is finally over and school will be in full blast for the 4th grading period. Thanks for dropping by my blog, TFL peeps!

Sketchabilities #39!

Hello everyone! Welcome to our first reveal for the new year at Sketchabilities! I still have hangover of the holidays and so I decided to scrap Lorenzo's Christmas photos. Here's what I came up with...



2010... Since I'm already working, I feel sorry for spending less time at home. Lorenzo constantly reminded me of putting up our tree as early as October. Christmas season comes early in my house and the boys are just excited about it. So this year, it was a bit late, but the excitement and happiness was just the same... overwhelming! Lorenzo still believes in Santa Claus and was worried his stockings won't fit Santa's gifts. He loves countdowns about anything that excites him, so you can just imagine how "kulit" this little boy is. I used here Fancy Pants pps, corrugated board, Bazzill cardstock edges and chipboard numbers, Scenic Route chipboard and pps, Prima's Antique Mistletoe, 7 Gypsies cardstock stickers, MM shimmer paint and Tattered Angel Glimmer Mist.

The weather is pretty much colder than last month, it feels like Baguio is here in Laguna! Nevertheless, Lorenzo is enjoying the cold breeze and its giving me a hard time waking up for work. 7 weeks from now, Lorenzo will be turning 7 and this is occupying much of my thoughts. I am working on a Toy Story theme party and my first move is to shop for little things for his loot bags and games. I am still searching for his Buzz Lightyear costume and its driving me crazy! Yeah, I am on panic mode now, and I think I am more excited than him, hahaha!

I feel I have finally adjusted on my daily routine in school. Just taking it easy for now and getting ready again for another major exam week. I am still scrapping, I'm glad I haven't forgotten it!

You're not lost, I just changed the face of my blog. Thanks for looking as always! :)

Mini mini!

I'm doing minis this past few days! Some friends are giving them for post-Christmas presents, I guess. They are 6x6 in size, contains 6 pages per album and quite easy to make with the big help of my pink Bind-it-All.

This balances my work in school, after a day of teaching, this clears up my mind and relaxes nerves. First plan for the year is finally moving on... giving our house a facelift! Hopefully it turns out nice and keeps within the budget. Thinking about the second plan, its my little man's 7th birthday coming soon and I have less than 2 months to prepare for it. I'm so excited!

Somehow, still enjoying my fully loaded weekend... Thanks for looking peep!
