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:

This was Gian’s first experience to go to the beach and “really” play in the powdery white sand of Panglao Beach!
He had a grand time digging and burying his lower body in the sand.
