Hello everyone! I hope you all had a fruitful yet delightful easter weekend.

I can't believe the first quarter of 2010 is over. Where did your first 3 months go? Mine went by so quickly. Our shoe factory is finally closed. One of my house angels resigned leaving me with much housework while running the family business. Then while doing hosework, I found so much stuff at home that need to be disposed of. Oh, and I celebrated my birthday in February.

On the scrapbook front, I was surprised that I made more layouts than I had expected, considering my pace. Here are some of them.







Thanks for dropping by!

Can I Blog Now?

I can't believe it's been 5-1/2 months since my last blog post. I've been super busy the whole time with a lot of things going on.

My business partner and I decided a few months ago to close our shoe factory. So that alone meant a lot of work. And as if the burden of closing shop wasn't enough, typhoon Ondoy (international name Ketsana) hit and our factory was not spared. Thankfully, no one was hurt and everyone has recovered somehow. And of course there had been some 'this and that' going on here and there. Oh, and facebook happened too!

My scrappy life took a dive...bigtime. I stopped making pages somewhere in September and October. Even spending a day with my scrappy friends did not do anything for me. How sad was that?

Anyway, that was last year. I hope things will look up this year, scrapbooking included. My first layout for 2010 is underway and I hope to get that done soon. Meanwhile, here are some of the pages I made in 2009 before the 'slump'.








Thanks for still being here!

Take Two!

Hi everyone! I'm hosting a challenge over at Creative Scrappers. I call it my "Take Two" challenge. You may view the details here or just read on.

Jao is turning two this month, hence, the "take two". My challenge for all our creative scrappers is to create a layout (12x12 or 8-1/2x11) using 2 pieces of each material - 2 cs, 2 pps, 2 buttons, 2 flowers, 2 chipboard, you name it! There is no limit to the number of materials you want to use as long as it's 2 of each. And everything else like the photos, words in a title, theme, color, etc is all up to you!

Please upload your LOs in the Creative Scrappers gallery in the album for this challenge by July 31st.

Here's my sample LO:

For all Philippine residents who will join the challenge (and whose LOs are uploaded in the Creative Scrappers gallery) , I will randomly draw another winner for a RAK! Please leave a comment when you've uploaded your LO.
