Cutie Pie


So many baby pictures, so little time!  I have three nephews and five nieces, so there's plenty of baby pics that have yet to be scrapped.  This is one of my favorites and probably the earliest taken of any of my nieces and nephews.  Baby Danielle is barely a day old when this picture was taken and even then, she already stole our hearts.  

This digital layout is my entry to challenge #31 at the Filipino Scrapbookers Challenge Blog, as I am still not able to work in the craft room.  But I must confess, I am definitely warming up to digital scrapbooking.  I'm still very limited by my skill level though, because I still don't know how to use Photoshop.  Believe it or not, all of the digital work I've done so far has all been due to Powerpoint. :))

Here's the sketch provided as inspiration for this challenge.  It was designed by Melissa Bonifacio.

  

I used a lovely digital kit that can be downloaded for free from ShabbyPrincess.com.  It's the Spontaneous Delight kit created by Carrie Stephens.  I've been wanting to use this kit for a while now because the colors are just all of my favorites.  And then I made the title using the Messy Edge alphabet from Free Digital Scrapbooking.

Hello there


This is the first time that I'll be submitting an entry to the Filipino Scrapbookers Challenge Blog's card sketch challenge.  This is also the first digital card I've made and I used the Not Too Shabby Penelope sampler collection from ShabbyPrincess.com.  It seems that I'm slowly getting the hang of making digital layouts/cards, but I'm not ready to shift completely to digital.  I still love working with things that I can actually touch, but I'm unable to work in my craft room, hence the digital projects.

This card was inspired by a sketch by Melissa Bonifacio for challenge #30 on the FSCB.

Goofy Girl


I made another digital layout because I have no access to the craft room as of the moment.  I'll probably be able to get back to my regular crafty habits (as regular as it can be) in a week or so, when the craft room will no longer be occupied (it's being used as a guest room of sorts).  So for now, this will have to do.

I used a kit that I downloaded from ShabbyPrincess.com called The Promise Collection.  I do love the subdued colors and the pretty elements, which are all great for this page that I made about my youngest niece.  She's a very happy and active toddler, and she moves around so much that I have a hard time taking a proper picture of her sitting still and smiling.

This layout is my first (and hopefully not the only one) entry to challenge #29 at the Filipino Scrapbookers Challenge Blog.  It's based on a sketch by Melissa Bonifacio.
