I've Been Tagged

I was wondering what Diane meant when she said she "tagged me." I thought it was another one of those things the youth of today (of which I am not part) are into like Friendster, etc. Good thing I checked out her blog and it turns out it's a simple info sheet. So here it is:

Culinary Guilt: Pizza -- all kinds of crusts and sauces with lots of mozzarella please!
Literary Guilt: Showbiz Magazines like People -- as far from literature as it can get!
Audio-Visual Guilt: John Lloyd Cruz & Bea Alonzo tele-novelas -- they keep me company when I scrap at night!
Musical Guilt: Janet Jackson and Swing Out Sisters -- I'm an 80's child!
Celebrity: Ellen de Genres -- she is so funny and real

Do I have to tag anybody now?

Kazoo Kids Bragbook

Started & finished this bragbook the night before we left for the US, all in about 3 hours.
Bud wanted to show-off our kids and my scrapbooking (daw) so I was "forced" to do this -- haha!
I love how polished it turned out even if it was done in a rush.
Materials Used: Kazoo Kids kit by K & Co, Sizzix Bread Tags die, Sakura Aqualip, chalk ink, metal alphas by joann

Finally Home!

Just got back Saturday night from a 2-week vacation -- aka 2nd Honeymoon (haha)! Am itching to scrap but for now can only share some of the scrap stuff that was waiting for me at my sister's place in NY and my MIL's house in MN. The first pic has the stuff from NY most of which arrived last year but my sis was unable to bring it with her when she came home for Christmas. Here were some acrylic stamps, my magazine subscriptions, 2 Sizzlits dies, new Urban Lily papers, Heidi Swapp bling words, BG chipboard and rub-ons, etc.
My current prized possesions that were waiting for me in MN include all 4 new BG lines, an AMM bag with matching wallet to put pics of my 3 kids, 2 Sizzix Bigz Dingbats dies (same as Big Shot Thick Cuts) so I can make chipboard brackets, more Autumn Leaves, Fontwerks and Fancy Pants stamps, and more papers!
I think I'm all set for now until Sahrie's new shipment arrives and/or the National Scrapbooking Day sales in May!

Busy, busy, busy

Sorry I haven't posted in 2 weeks. I've been quite busy lately doing exam reviewers for Luis, errands and other Mommy-stuff (yaya had to go on emergency leave) and squeezing in 20 2-page Disney LOs to relieve stress and release tension.



Here's a compilation of the 20 Disney pages -- no use scanning and stitching them since they're not yet done. Lots of pictures with journaling -- and plenty of room for titles and embellishments. This is quickie scrapping at its finest -- gotta catch-up with my backlog cos summer (and more pics) is here in a few weeks!

I want to put down all the pics and journaling before I put the final embellishments -- which will hopefully put the whole album "together". If anyone knows how to do a Disney album without it looking like chopsuey -- please let me know because this is my 3rd Disney album and I still can't do it.
