New Layouts!

Have two new Layouts to share. First is my entry to My Little Attic's Summer Challenge. For this LO I used the Sweet Pea Line of Fancy Pants and their glitter cuts. I just fell in love with it that I could not resist using them. I also did stamping using MM paints and a bubble wrap! TFL!



Journaling:
Ever since Ryan and I got married it became sort of a tradition for us to celebrate his birthday at the beach. Both of us are very busy at work and for us to really have a great vacation away from patients or paperwork we have to really be far from home.
So whether it is in Boracay, Panglao or in Batangas, it was always a much awaited trip.
While Ryan goes scuba diving, I go snorkeling or simply take a stroll on the beach and collect sea shells.
These are simple things but it helps us relax, unwind and recharge.

Materials used: Fancy Pants- Sweet Pea – Noah, brenna, FP Felt shapes-
Splash, FP Glitter cuts, American Thickers- poolside and playroom, Creative Imaginations Scrapbook stickers, Plain CS, BG two scoops fibers, Tracing paper, MM paints- Capri, waterslide and lagoon, bubble wrap( for stamping), glue dots Vellum.


My next LO is an entry to Rekindled Moments WRMK Challenge.I used a combination of the white Out explore and promenade lines.

Darnest May.....

Kids say the darnest things!
"That's why it is so important to keep a paper and pen handy at all times!
You'll never know when you're going to overhear a conversation
that you will never want to forget!!!"this was the challenge made by scrappin Kids for the month of May... to scrap about the darnest things that our lil ones ever said. And I just got the right picture for this. Mind you this was the actual shot my husband took using his nokia N95 when this incident happened.

A few months ago, my son Gian stunned me by what he said. He was very naughty that day and so out of frustration I told him that he was a very bad boy! He started to cry and suddenly said "DIBA YOU LOVE ME? YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO GET MAD AT ME!This reply really caught me by surprise and I felt bad that I got so mad at him. But as always we ended up hugging each other tight. My hubby was so amused by what happened that he couldn't resist taking this picture of my son and I making up!

Studio Azul Entry

I'm really glad I'm able to scrap again. This time I finished my studio Azul entry for their MARCH MASTER CHALLENGE. In this challenge, we were required to scraplift no other than every filipina's idol, Master IRIS BABAO UY! So who could resist this? Me? i wouldn't pass this chance. This is actually my second time to scraplift a layout of Iris.



Well, here's my version. TFL!

I'm Back!

It's been a month since my last post. Actually I didn't go anywhere.Didn't have the mood or the drive to scrap. Had terrible afternoon sickness (yup mine is in the afternoon)that's why I've been out of touch lately. Anyway, I finally found a way to avoid throwing up. Did a few experiments and it seems that as long as I don't eat pork, beef or chicken then I'm less "hilo". hehehe! And maybe because I'm entering my 3rd month of pregnancy kaya medyo nag wane na ang afternoon sickness.

So finally, here I am starting to scrap again. I was able to make 2 new layouts. The first one I made for the april Scrabytes challenge. I had fun doing this layout because it gave me a chance to use bright summer colors which I just love soooo much! Here's my entry:
