It's Almost V-Day!

In celebration of Valentine's Day tomorrow, Color Combos Galore features a very fitting palette this week.

It is very rare for me to use colors that are these bold so, as usual, I rely on simplicity of design to create maximum impact. I am so glad I found these KI Memories sheers in my stash...I forgot I even had them...And this photo is another one that I've been meaning to scrap but just hadn't had time to do before now...

Title: ABC of Love

Materials: Cardstock - Wassau, American Crafts; Sheers - KI Memories; Foam Letters - American Crafts; Tiny Alpha - Making Memories; misc floss

You have until this Friday to participate in this week's challenge...go and create one for your love now! I hope you all spend tomorrow with someone you love!!!

Summer in the Big Apple

Here's a long over-due LO from our trip to New York last summer. We're lucky that my 2 sisters share a huge (by NY standards) apartment and they let us stay with them for a week...I have a feeling though that the invite is only open if we have the kids with us...

It's funny though, because if you ask my kids what they love most about NY, they will tell you that it's the apartment -- they got so tired of all the walking to the subway and back (it's 5 blocks to 57th and Lexington) -- they were excited to go out each morning but were more excited to get back home asap where the doting aunts would let them watch TV, play games on their laptops and let them eat whatever they want.

Title: Summer in the Big Apple

Materials: Cardstock- DCWV, American Crafts; Patterned Paper- Nikki Sivils; Making Memories Slice machine; Foam alpha - American Crafts; Buttons - Nikki Sivils; Small alpha stickers - Nikki Sivils

Journaling: We spent a week in New York and can't wait to get back. May 2010

This LO uses the new Summer line from Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker which has a really fun color palette...I hear all of Nikki's new lines have sold out and she has had to re-print already...woohoo!!! I also followed a sketch from Sketches for Scrapbooking by Allison Davis and Debbie Sanders.

The apples were the last things I cut from my Slice machine before it unceremoniously died on me -- not really, but started cutting really weird shapes and the Making Memories Customer Service says since it's past the warranty period I would have to pay $19.99 for check-up on top of shipping it to the US and then an unknown amount if it is fixable...tsk tsk. So I will have to do a "big think" on this one as I have almost 30 design cards, but am not keen on investing in another MM machine if it only lasts 2 years...what to do, what to do....and I did love my Slice machine to bits until this all happened...

CCG 178

Here's my LO for Color Combos Galore #178 using Niki Sivils Scrapbooker's brand new "Summer" line.

Title: Smile

Materials: Patterned papers - Nikki Sivils; Rub-ons, pen, flair buttons - American Crafts; Misc rickrack, baker's twine, foam tape

This week's color scheme is so sweet it's almost sinful so please do try your hand at it!

Make A Wish

Here's my 1st LO for Scrapfit Challenge blog. For Workout #37, we were asked to scrap about our dreams or goals. It took me forever to think of what mine is...and shallow as it may be...the only thing that I really, truly want right now (because I am already so blessed to have everything else) is to lose weight!

Title: Make A Wish
Materials: Cardstock - Wassau; Patterned papers - Sassafras Lass, American Crafts; Die-cuts - Daisy Ds; Mist - Tattered Angels; Number Stickers - October Afternoon; Pen - American Crafts; Dymo label maker; Misc lace

If you've barely made a dent in your scrapbooking goals for 2011, this is a great challenge to start with. I hope you can join us here and you have until the end of this month to submit your LO.

Ballet Love

Here's another LO featuring Nikki Sivils' Sugar Cookie collection. This is Bianca at her ballet Christmas program last December. They featured dances from The Nutcracker and she's supposed to be doing a soldier dance. She was sooooo adorable, and I'm not just saying that because I'm her mother:)

Title: Ballet Love

Journaling: I love that you love ballet! 121810

Proud Boy

Here's a delayed post for my LO which was on the Pebbles blog last week...

The 1st day of 2011 was a fun and lazy kind of day for us...we woke up almost lunch time and decided to head to the club for a swim (for the kids), a run (Bud and I) and some kite-flying...

Happy New Year!

And to start the New Year off, here's a LO I made for Colorful Creations for their Guest Designer Sketch Series. Colorful Creations is a wonderful community of scrapbookers with several regular challenges.

I used Nikki Sivils Blueberry Hill for this project and drew and cut the balloons myself.

Title: Plastic Balloon Fun
Materials: Cardstock - DCWV; Patterned Papers, die-cut and letter stickers - Nikki Sivils; Thickers and pens - American Crafts.
Journaling: Nadya discovers the joy of plastic balloons. April 2010, Canyon Woods, Batangas

2010 was a very good year for me in all aspects...got our house renovated...kids are all doing well in school...Bud is doing well at work...more scrapbooking opportunities for me...got to travel a bit...but the start of a new year is always exciting...so many things to look forward to...

I hope 2011 is a great year for everyone too!

Merry Christmas!

Good Morning everyone! No, I am not awake this early...thank God for scheduled posts! I hope you all are having a Merry Christmas!
Here is my Christmas LO which appeared on the Pebbles blog the yesterday.

Title: Waiting for Midnight


Materials: 

Pebbles Products Used: Tree House Pebbles Chips (744114), Tree House Epoxy Brads (744231), Tree House Bliss (751033), Tree House Trunk (751034), Tree House Fun (751035), Red Spool Ribbon (44029); 

Other Products Used: Cardstock (American Crafts, DCWV), Pen (American Crafts), Punches (EK Success, Martha Stewart), Letter Stickers (Autumn Leaves, Making Memories), Misc - doily lace

Journaling: Here in the Philippines, our kids don't need to wait for Christmas morning to open their presents...they only need to  be awake when the clock strikes at midnight on Christmas Eve.

After an evening mass, we all gather in my mom's house dressed in our Christmas finery to wait for midnight when we eat our Noche Buena...a huge feast when the family gathers together to celebrate Jesus' birth.

The waiting time is one of the best times to take pictures of the kids, as they are at their most cooperative selves. They can't risk anything at this point as it is so close to "opening presents time". 

And when midnight comes, the riot begins as gift wrappers are torn and the kids start squealing with delight.

At around 2AM, we go home loaded with presents, prepare milk and cookies for Santa, and finally go to sleep to wake-up to a full day of more family get-togethers, more eating and lots & lots of presents!

Christmas 2009

CCG 172

Advanced Merry Christmas everyone!  Here's my LO for Color Combos Galore Challenge 172. I'm so happy I finally got to scrap these pics and use up these papers that have been in my stash for quite some time now...can anybody name where these pps are from???

Title: Comfort and Joy
Materials: Patterned papers - Autumn Leaves; Cloth paper - Love Elsie; Sticker - 7 Gypsies; Alpha - Making MMemories; Punch - Martha Stewart

Happy Holidays everyone!!!

In a Charming Mood...

Nikki Sivils recently partnered with Creative Charms and Sketches for Scrapbooking 2, and here are 2 LOs I made using them.

First up is this Christmas LO using the new Happy Holly Days line using photos taken inside a grocery store last year. I chanced upon this Coke display in the grocery and had my driver go home to pick up my girls for a photo-op. It was so funny because Nadya kind of thought he didn't look like the real Santa and, I think< bianca was definitely not convinced (she didn't even want to sit beside him), but they went for the ride anyway.

Title: Storybook Christmas
Materials: Cardstock - Wassau; Patterned Papers & Stickers: Nikki Sivils; Brads - Creative Charms; Chipboard: Dusty Attic; Stickles, Folk Art and Making Memories paints; American Crafts pen

This next LO uses the Something for Everyone line (FYI: the dotted one is named after me:)).

Title: She
Materials: Cardstock - DCWV; Patterned Papers - Nikki Sivils; Transparency - Hambly; Flowers: Creative Charms; Die-cut machine: MM Slice; Paint: Folk Art; Key - Tim Holtz; misc lace

I loved how these 2 2-page LOs turned out. Thanks so much to Creative Charms and Sketches for Scrapbooking 2!

The Christmas Rush Is Here

... obviously since it's been over a week since I updated my blog. Oops!

Here's the LO I made for Color Combos Galore Challenge 171. A bit of a challenge for me since I rarely use blue for my girls' LOs but these photos just called for it.

Title: 3 Things
Materials: Cardstock - Core'dinations; Patterned Papers and border stickers - Basic Grey; Die-cuts - Daisy Ds; Pearls - Prima; Maya Road Clock; Pink Paislee embellishment; Making Memories metal embellishment; misc lace; American Crafts pen

If you have the time, do try out this week's challenge:

And in case I am not able to get back on here before Christmas, I hope you all enjoy our holidays!

Sweet Dancer

Title: Sweet Dancer

Materials: Cardstock - Wassau, Bazzill; Patterned Papers - Websters Pages, American Crafts, Prima; Chipboard Alpha - Chatterbox; Alpha Sticker - Basic Grey; Paint - Plaid; Die-cut sticker - October Afternoon; Misc - bling, lace

Journaling: Nadya at rehearsals for their presentation at Kids' Expo. Mar. 6, 2010

Here's my LO for challenge 169 of Color Combos Galore. I loved this week's colors and I'm sorry that I didn't strictly stick to the colors as the paper had green on it -- I did try to cover it a bit with some gold glitter paint.

Speaking of which, have you ever tried Plaid Folk Art Extreme Glitter Acrylic Paint? I saw it in Wal-Mart the last time I was in the US and grabbed a few bottles --- it's the easiest way to add major, major glitter to your craft projects without heat embossing! I wish I got all the colors.

So here's this week's challenge, I hope you do try to join in as this is such a joy to work with.

Delight

Here's another LO I made using the Tree House line from Pebbles Inc. If you like bright, happy colors, this is one line you need to get your hands on...I can't think of a time of the year when you can't use this line!

I love these photos of Bianca opening her presents. Granted, it took quite a bit of control on my part to take these shots, as I usually "help" her open the presents.

Sugar Cookie

Here's a LO using Nikki Sivils' Valentine collection called Sugar Cookie. Photos were taken last Mother's Day -- Other than having good food, my only other requirement for where to go on Mother's Day is for it to be in a place where we can take good pics with good natural light :)
I made my own flowers using paper strips, a circle punch and Nikki's burlap buttons. If you want a chance to win the full set of burlap buttons, head on over to Nikki's blog now!!!

CCG 168

Here's another out-of-my-box color scheme that took some time for me to warm up to...Challenge 168 from Color Combos Galore...but I really like how it turned out...Lucky me, I have a ton of pics left waiting to be scrapped...I seem to find the perfect picture for whatever color combo is up everytime :-)

Do try this week's color combo # 167 and see what gorgeous LOs you come up with!

Thanks for visiting!

Autumn in Central Park

Here's a LO I made for Pebbles Inc, and my 1st-ever authentic Autumn LO. These pictures were taken by a friend while walking around Central Park. Makes me wanna go back there at this time of the year to see it all for myself. I don't think I'll ever tire of going to Central Park...there are so many nooks and crannies, it's so easy to get lost...and we've done exactly that the few times we were there!

Pebbles Materials Used:

744114 Tree House Pebbles Chips, 751027 Tree House View, 751030 Tree House Melody, 751004 Twitterpated Spark, 751008 Twitterpated Charm, 751043 Bow Wow, 751044 Shake, 751050 Kitty Condo, 42003 Earth Tone Chalks, 42061 Accents Chalk Stencils, 732001 Charming ABC Stickers

Other Supplies Used:

CCG 166

Here's this week's challenge and my LO for Color Combos Galore's challenge #166. I love the combination of blue and orange but usually use it for boy pages -- it's a nice change to do a girly page with these colors.

Title: Real Beauty
Materials: Cardstock - Wassau; Patterned papers - Crate paper, Studio Calico; Mist - Tattered Angels; Mask - Prima; Fabric Tab - Sassafras Lass; Chipboard - Dusty Attic, Buzz & Bloom; Key - Tim Holtz; Paint - Making Memories; Crackle Glaze - Ranger; Die-cut frame and border - Crate Paper; Misc lace; Rub-ons - Daisy Ds

Round N Round

Here's a LO I made for Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker's October Challenge to Mix and Match products from at least 3 different lines.  Here I used products from My Friend Birdie, Willow Bee, Bella Blue and Oscar Too, and Will He B The 1.

Title: Round N Round
Journaling: Nadya & Bianca love going for a carousel ride. 090310
Materials: Cardstock-Bazzill; Patterned papers, journaling sticker, die-cuts - Nikki Sivils; Fabric - Prima; Rubber die-cut - Pink Paislee; Mist - Tattered Angels; Paint - Smooch; Pen - American Crafts, Alpha Stickers - Cosmo Cricket

Notice the pleats? This is another one of my "happy mistakes"! I thought there was too much brown on the LO but I had already adhered the photo and punched the border, so I decided to pleat the excess...love the dimension this added to my LO! Try this easy technique out sometime.

Ties That Bind

I was thrilled when Jennifer asked me to be the Guest Designer at Inspired Blueprints! I enjoy working with sketches...even if the resulting LO ends up differently from the original, because they always make the wheels in my head turn in different directions. 

I started working on this LO during my Scrappy Birthday Party -- which is always a lot of fun because we combine great friends, good food and juicy "tsismis" or "gossip" -- but "tied" it together later on.

Title: Ties That Bind

Journaling Quote: Family ties are precious threads no matter where we roam; They draw us close to those we love and pull our hearts toward home.

Materials: Patterned papers - October Afternoon, Echo Park; Die-cut Flowers - Sassfras Lass; Puffy Alpha - American Crafts; Script alpha sticker - Webster's Pages; Green Alpha Sticker - Basic Grey; Metal Lacing Brads - Karen Foster; Flair Button - American Crafts; Misc fiber; Sticker Tab - 7 Gypsies; Pen - American Crafts; Acrylic Butterfly - Heidi Swapp; Font: Bradley Hand ICT TT

Can't believe it's November already...time to think of Thanksgiving and Christmas projects...

Thank You

Here's a LO that was up on the Pebbles Inc blog last week featuring the New Arrival Girl line. I love the sweet pink color mixed with some browns...makes you really want to have a baby girl just so you have pictures to scrap :) LOL!

Luckily, I still have lots of Bianca's baby pictures left unscrapped (Luis and Nadya too, come to think of it) so I can scrap baby pages for a long time...

Title: Thank You

Snobby Walrus Oct Kit

Halloween is just around the corner and the kids are excited! Not sure if I'll be making Halloween treats this year...since Luis will be packed off to a 4-day kids camp for Halloween week-end...kind of a bittersweet moment when my 10-year old goes to camp for the 1st time.

Halloween isn't as much a tradition over here as it is in the US, although I have been trick or treating since I was a little girl, too (and that's a loooong time ago...). My husband, who grew up in the US, was stupefied when he saw how Halloween is done here. Because of the heat, the kids can barely walk a block in their hot costumes, so they usually pile into a car and get off only at the houses that are giving candy away...causing major traffic jams in the  subdivision!

Here are my projects using Snobby Walrus' October Kit. Our DT coordinator, Tracy is on emergency leave, so the kit is not yet up on the site, but will be as soon as they iron things out while she's away.
