I'm back...and what's new at Magicmaker-Scraps and a big 70% off Sale

I'm back... I'm out of the country right now. Nope, I'm not on a vacation...I still cook, do the laundry, wash the dishes, etc... it's just that I'm not doing those chores at home in the Philippines. DH is on a short-term work assignment. Usually, he's only out of the country for a maximum of three weeks, then, he's back. This one is for a few months, so I joined him here.

I never thought, I would be able to finish a kit this month. I'm not the type of person who is very good in handling change...I'm the worst. With the adjustment in weather/climate, time zone, daily routine, waking-up/lights-off schedule, and "work station". I felt like a zombie for the last two weeks.

The other day, I was crying...I burned several DVDs of stuffs that I brought here so that I will be able to continue designing and making LOs/photobooks. One of the DVDs containing the commercial-use items that I bought from several stores could not be read by the computer that I'm currently using. That contains 4 GB of my precious CU stuffs...I knew, I made back-ups for all those DVDs but I couldn't find them. What am I gonna do here? I cried and I prayed--I wanted to go home.

Then, I inserted another DVD. Voila, apparently, I just wrote a wrong label on it...

Anyway, I've started this "Lovely Snowy" Kit last January, along with "Cinder Weds" and "Aurora in Love". Now, the three princesses are already complete.

Be a magicmaker-scraps club member or look for it at michelles-angels.com/to get this kit.

I made two layouts using this kit. These are some of our latest photos here in Austin, Texas. The kit may seem to be a princess/fairytale-inspired kit but it can also be used in day-to-day themed layouts. I made these layout into QPs, in case, somebody is interested.

I also have a sampler freebie, just go and get it in my other blog at magicmaker-scraps .

Leigh’s photo in Lolo’s pocket (lolo mean's grandpa). Leigh was the latest grandson before my father passed away and he loved this kid a lot. It really brightened my ailing father's day whenever Leigh was around.

Remember When LOs and QP Freebie

I managed to make some LOs last night using Kimberly Bartlett's (FishinmomDesigns) "Remember When" Kit. A gorgeous kit done in beautiful blue/green tones. This kit is huge and full of everything you need to create a multitude of beautiful layouts. A wide array of flowers, double satin bows and ribbons adorn the kit making it extremely verstatile.

True Beauty Blossoms from Within

The blended photo is actually blurred but I decided to keep it because I like it so much. I thought that someday, I would be able to use this photo and now the time has come--I found a perfect kit to scrap it with another classic favorite photo of mine. (As you notice these photos were the "sisters" of the one in my header).

A Flower Girl at Ten

Faye was already too big to be a flower girl but her Ninong Karl insisted to include her in the entourage. She did look great in her flower girl dress. It’s Faye & Meg’s first time to travel outside Luzon. it’s their first time too to ride in an airplane going to Iloilo to attend Ninong Karl’s wedding.

A Keepsake to Remember

The photo on this LO is a real memento for keeping. Early this year, we had a sort of family "reunion" on my uncle's (Papa Edwin) wake. We were so excited that Ana (right) will be turning 18 this year and how fast time had gone. This cousin of mine has been our family's baby for a long time. I told her, she's the only one in her generation. Then, she blurted out: "But there's Charrie". And we all remembered my niece which we haven't seen for more than a decade now. Ever wondered why Ana cannot forget that she has a batchmate in her childhood days? Ana said that she remembered that Charrie pushed her (LOL) in a pool during my sister's wedding (where this photo was taken). Both of them were flower girls then. That happened during the reception and Ana wearing her gown got and make up got wet all over. That was very funny, isn't it? This was their first picture together & the last time they've seen each other. These girls were not cousins, they were actually second degree "aunt and niece." Charrie is the daughter of my cousin and Ana is the daughter of my uncle.

Now, here's the Remember When Kit. You can grab it for only $4.00 at fishinmomdesign.com

This kit is Scraps-for Hire/Others (S4H/S4O) Friendly.

Just Posting By, LOs and Freebies

It's been more than a week since my last post. I guess I owe my dear and loyal readers a lot of freebies. Thank you so much for visiting my blog always, I was a little shocked and embarrased that my hit has gone to 28,000 and you haven't have anything to read or grab. Don't worry, there are a bunch of QPs and other freebies today and the days to come.

A big thank you too for my constant "pals" who never forget to leave comments at 4shared and here in my blog. You just don't know how much I appreciate them.

For a starter, here are some layouts that I've done in the past week using "Camo Girl" Kit by Kimberly Bartlett (FishinmomDesigns)

Walk like a Princess

This photo is one of our clan's favorite picture. My husband was assisting our niece as she was going up the stairs. Latrize was a flower girl in her uncle Gerald's wedding and she loves wearing her gown. With the way she walked with matching holding on her dress, she looked every inch a princess.

Camo Girls

My nieces posed for a souvenir shot with their friend, (center) Tania. This was taken during Faye's 9th and Meg's 7th birthday.

Sugar and Spice Girls

Here's another favorite photo of my nieces that I took a few years back. I love how Meg was half smiling (she doesn't want to show the missing front teeth); Faye giving her full smile and Latrize was giggling to the hilt. Well, those were three ways to show how to give their cutest faces.

Now, here's the Camo Girl Kit which you can purchase for only $4.00

You can grab it here

This kit is Scraps-for Hire/Others (S4H/S4O) Friendly

And since, I've been away for so long, here's another giveaway. It's the wordart for the LO above plus some other wordards:

"What are little boys made of?
Snips and snails, and puppy-dogs' tails,
That's what little boys are made of."

"What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice, and everything nice,
That's what little girls are made of."

A Few Layouts and a Freebie

Here are some layouts that I made using Spring Sunset Kit by Kimberly Bartlett (aka fishinmomdesigns).

A Happy Family
Here's my sister's family. Every two years they go to a studio to have a family picture-taking. Here are some of those photos. If someone will visit their place, one can see all their framed family pictures on the wall and it's so good to see how they changed through the years.

A Family in Harmony

I really admire my parents-in-law (PIL) for how they brought up their kids. DH and his siblings are all achievers; with "good moral character" and they are in harmony with one another. This LO is dedicated to my PIL for a job well done-- it was their wedding photo and the pictures of the three sibling are in the charm. The Chinese proverb is very fitting for them since they are Chinese too.

It's a Girl Thing

These are my nieces taken two years ago. They seem to be sweet and inseparable in the first picture but after several shots, they got tired and just wanted to sit down, relax and be apart...well, it's a girl thing!

Grab the kit here

All her megakits can be bought for only $4.00. All fishinmomdesigns' kit are scrap-for-hire/others (S4H/S4O) friendly, so grab a kit or two, now.
