I've been tagged and has been given an award

Blog Award, Hurray!


Lady Queen has given me an award two weeks ago. She knew what happened to me and I told her I would be posting this as well as I will pass this award as soon as I can. Now, the time has come. I'm so honored to have this award.

This is called the "Proximidade Award" or "Friendship Around the World Award". Originally this award was written in Spanish, but it translates to highlight blogs that are pleasing or special in some way, and also to extend the hand of friendship around the world.

Now, I am supposed to pass this award onto either 6 or 8 other blogs.

Through digital scrapbooking, I was able to establish ties with some individuals. Some of them are even praying for me and has given me encouragement in times of trials.

Another Blog Award, Yahoo!

The next award also came from Lady Queen. I also love this one.

Now, I'm passing along this award to other scrappers, Friends, artist etc. Though it doesn't say how many blogs do I need to pass this on so I'm gonna give myself the liberty to give it to those special blogs that really touch my heart because of their openness to share their lives (they really blog) and beliefs (share their faith for instance) to other people. They just don't give digital scrapping freebies but they share and inspire others as well through their stories. They also share their pictures/LOs for the whole world to see, that I think is something that puts a "heart" to a blog--you allow strangers to know who you are. I see it as a way of extending one's hand to find friends in cyberspace. Now, that means I'll have a longer list here.

Note: This is just me, to those whom I will pass this on, you may not follow my criteria. I guess, for you it's okay to pass it on to only two or three persons.

Just a Few Question

Lisa (http://aleahsmommy.blogspot.com/) sent me a few question also on the first on the first week of October, LOL. So here they are:

1. How long have you been using PSP? I don't actually use PSP, I only know how to use PSD.


2. How did I get into tag making, Scrapkits? I used to be a CT member and I make a lot a QPs. Somehow, I want a little more challenge so just thought making a kit since there are resources that I can use using provided by "the ephemeral victorian" blog--that blog has already closed.

3. Who's my favorite artist/s? Same as Item #4 below.


4. Who are my favorite scrap designers? I have a lot of favorites among them are: April Cotton (aprilsscrapaholic)--she offers variety on her kits, from digitally made to extracted elements; Lonetta Avelar'(Creative Victorian)--her kits are very elegant; Kimberly Bartlett (fishinmom Designs)--they are very versatile, you can use one kit in so many layouts; Carolyn Kite (Srap-N-tag)--very original, I think she's the first designer who ever made the first element/frame/border clusters; Kristi Westling (Scrappin Diva)--her kits are so enchanting; Kim Broedelet (KimB's Design)--she has very unique kits with lots of elements that will make you say "wow!"; Boo Silva (Booland's Design)--very much like KimB's, she makes awesome kits too; Jannidee (JanniscrapDesign)--her kits are always fresh and one of a kind; Deb (thescrappincop)--she's the digiscrapping world's CU Freebie Queen and you will really wonder where she gets all the time and inspiration to create wonderful templates (she's really amazing); Linda Walton (bonscrapatitdesigns)--she makes very lovely kits that are big enough (the number of elements and papers) to make an entire album; and of course, Joni Gray--she's very creative and she never runs out of kit and QPs to make that are just beautiful and very useful.


5. Who's blog do I go to everyday? Not everyday but just as often as I can--let's just say I'm their regular blog reader. Sometimes I'm busy with other stuffs or I'm away so I wasnt able to visit them on a daily basis but I see to it that I'm updated with the buzz in these people's blog whenever I can: Lynnette (Lynette's photoart), Michelle (Michelle's Angel), Lisa (Aleah's Mom); Lady Queen; Candy Marcum (Scraps of Candy); Vicki (Digilover); Deb (Digital-Keepsake); Charlie (charliesdigiscraps); Shannon (shannersfamilyscrapsstuff); Joni Gray, Kim Scrapping, and those that I mentioned in item 4 (above)--April Cotton, KimB's, Netta, Kimberly Bartlett, Kristi Wesling, Carolyn Kite, Joni Gray, Boo Silva, and Jannidee.

Now, to pass this on to 3 people:
