April Showers

Oh we definitely need some rain here in the Philippines! The El Nino has already caused a lot of trouble here and we badly need April showers. Tsk tsk tsk... Global Warming. :(

But on the lighter side of things... Have you seen Prima's April product pick yet? I gotta say I am loving this new line. And Prima is giving this cool set away for free to one lucky winner (hope it's me)...

Gotta love those right? So visit Prima's blog today and who knows, you might just be the lucky one (but I still hope it's me) Lol.

What's In a Name?

A name is one of the important part of a person's life, without one then I guess everyone would be confused. The new prompt on Scrap That Baby Challenge blog is all about names. What is your baby's name (or maybe a niece or nephew, doesn't necessarily have to be your baby)? Where did the name come from or what does the name mean? The entry doesn't have to be new, it can be a layout, a card or an altered item. As long as it has something to do with the baby's name. :)

Here is my layout for prompt #3:

Marcie

Journaling:
You will probably get mad at mommy when you start to go to school & write your name. Your full name is so long but I chose these names because they have special meanings. Plus our last name is so short so I made your name a little bit longer. LOL. So let me explain the meanings of your name...
Mari Ciella Angelique
Mari- means gladly seen...and I do believe you are
Ciella- this was actually a combination of your lolo and lola's names Ciel from Graciel & La from Lai.
Angelique-means like an angel. You are our little angel from God.

Since this was too long, we gave you the nickname Marcie which means lively. Plus it's Mark & Gracie combined. :)

TFL.

Summer Layouts

I have a few layouts to share today. I made these last month but haven't got the time to post them here. I think I was able to post them on Facebook though. The photos I used were taken from our summer trip last year.

First LO is a photo from our Baguio trip. It was Marcie's first time to go horse back riiding. At first, she was crying because she was afraid to ride the horse. Later on she was crying because she didn't wanna leave the horse. lol

The second LO is from our Ilocos trip. Marcie had fun being our "model". She was in the mood for some picture taking.

The photo for my final LO was taken in Pagudpud. One of my favorite places in Ilocos. Marcie had fun playing at the shore as we were being chased by the waves. I used the Prima Kit for a Cause for this LO.

We haven't had any summer trips for this year yet so I haven't got any photos from this summer to scrap. But... there's still enough time for summer so I guess I'll just have to wait for the moment when we can have another vacation.

TFL!

Scrap That Baby Prompt #2

I'm sure all you mommies out there will never forget the day your child was born. It surely was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had. The second prompt for Scrap That Baby challenge blog is all about that memorable day... "On the day that you were born". Do drop by the blog to see the challenge details and see what my fellow DTs created for this prompt. I must say everyone did a terrific job. Sadly I wasn't able to join this prompt due to a family emergency. But I have finished my layout for the next prompt and I can't wait to share it with everyone. But it won't be up til April 15 so I have to keep it a secret for now. So go ahead and join the fun and you might even have the chance to win a $10 gift certificate from In A Scrap Creations. :)

Sorry I know... bad blogger... I have been so busy for the past month since we've opened up the new store. But now that everything's been set, I'll do my best to blog more often now. I won't promise but I'll try. I have been working on a couple of layouts and I've finished 2 so far and working on some finishing touches on the third one. And this third layout is for the Prima Kit for a cause which was done by Ms. Iris Babao-Uy. Love the kit and I'm really enjoying the process of creating the layout for it. And speaking of Prima.... go check out their blog for a very yummy giveaway! I would really love to win this one. Lots of Prima goodies. Here's a photo of what's up for grabs:
