Happy Post Halloween





Unlike in some countries, I never celebrated Halloween with such fun. The only thing I remember is during my childhood we simply go to the cemetery to visit our relatives who passed away. The only fun thing is we wait for candles to melt and form balls with it. I guess the fun thing I just did during the Halloween is view all the Halloween pages of my friends in Scrapbookflair. Gosh, they really take time to get costumes and go trick or treating. Well , I think we have that fun in Manila now. We stayed in the house the whole day of Nov.1 . I did some general cleaning so I got so tired to go out. The next day. i gathered some orchids from my garden and arranged them for my twins who did not make it(I think 23 years ago) . We also visited my mother and father in laws at their grave sites. We did a lot of eating too. My sister in law prepared one of my favorite merienda treat "dinuldog' in visayas but ginataan in tagalog. It's a mixture of bananas, jackfruit, sweet potato, then cooked with sticky rice and coconut milk. I assure you, this is YUMMY!
I made a little freebie. I wanted to join a challenge cxalled Scrap my Brother in Scrapbookflair in which I was invited but I coualdnot find it so I will just post it here. He is the reason why I cam up with these freebies. LOL. I enjoyed making the boxes and decided to share them with you. I don't know what's wrong with my 4 shared but it is taking to much of my time uploading as a zip folder file. I got to impatient so I just uploaded them individually. I was also playing with my plugins and came out with some of the elements. I just iincluded them to the kit. They looked good anyway. The sample photo is my daughter Edrie and Marc when they were having a realaxing moment in Las Vegas.

LOCKy CHARMS




Hi everyone. The sun is shining so hot today after a heavy rain last night. I had a hard time sleeping last night. That's what I get for having a cup of coffee late afternoon. Another reason is I keep thinking of my son who is Kish right now. That somewhere in the Emirates. I have not heard from him lately. Hope he is OKay. Well, at least I had news from my daughter Edrica who is Maryland as a nurse. Her husband is in Germany right now so she is pretty lonely. Thanks Edrie for the money! ( She always send us $500 a month)Ain't I so lucky? HAHAHA!

I made another freebie! I was playing around with my adobe again and I came up with this. I don't know what to call them , they look like locks and at the same time very charming so I gave them that name. It's cute anyway. I made one page using it. I mixed my page with some elements from my some of my favorite designers like Beckyscraps and Lyn-O. The transparent charm of course is mine. hihihi. The picture is when Edrica got married about 2 1/2 years ago. We have not seen her since. Oh Edrie, please plan to visit us! I miss her so much!
Anyway, enjoy my freebie. I hope you find them very useful . God bless you all!

You can get them here:

DIAMONDS, PEARLS & GEMS



Hi everyone! I have a maid! Although i am so happy about it, I am still a bit disappointed because she not that good with household work. She does not know how to cook too. Ugh! Well, at least I have somebody to clean my garden. That's the most important. I can't bend too much anymore. Weeds are coming out of my bermuda because of the rains, my euphorbias have to be resoiled., some plants have to be trimmed , the bermuda has to be cut too. Oh boy!

Well,after washing a few clothes ( I need to sweat to lower my sugar) , I enjoyed playing with my adobe , my plugins and brushes and I came out with these jewels. I hope you'll find them useful. I really had fun doing them. The other photo is a layout I made for my angel group in scrapbookflair.

SpongeBob


I am having a bad headache and i think a coming cold. Huhuhu! So I am here in front of the computer so that I won't think i am getting sick. It is a very hot day today. Finally we now have water! Some stupid guys cut the line connecting to our water supply and we had no water for a day. I had to ask for water from my sister in law. Luckily the water district came early this morning to fix it.


Anyway, here is something for you. I have to cute some spongebob for an invitation card that I will be doing for a friend. I just find them so cute so I might share them to you. I am sure these will be very cute on your scrapbooks.



Have a good day everyone!

My Frames


I had my executive check up yesterday and thank God , everything is well, i guess, just ok. I thought I had a kidney problem because I was having pains in my lower abdomen and slight backaches. The doctor said I just need to drink more water. Hahaha. My blood sugar is in the boderline so it will be a big sacrifice for the super sweet tooth me. MY uric also is just .1 higher than the normal so I also have to diet myself with junk foods, peanuts, legumes . My blood count is a little low so I am on Iron vitamins right now. No wonder I get dizzxy spells sometimes.

Oh thank God I had the time to make a freebie. I hope these will be useful. I don't have a maid right now . I am so tired washing a basket of clothes and cleaning the house this morning ; I had to cook for lunch and prepare again for dinner cuz i am picking up my husband downtown by 6:30 pm. Phew! And now I am having a little backache again.

Well, I hope you like my new freebie! Here is the link:

ENJOYING SCRAPBOOKFLAIR



I have not done any freebie yet because I am still enjoying joining challenges at Scrapbookflair. I am so inspired by the members comments that I get more excited to scrap and post them. Well, for the past days, i've been very busy giving awards to some members of Scrapbookflair, like, Golden Heart Award, Most Colorful Comment, and SBF Animation Award. . I really wish I could give eveybody but I already have almost 500 friends. Each of them is really special.

Well, I got two awards since I got hooked on that site. I have 1 Challenge Choice Award and 1 2nd Place. Yehey! I want to share with you the pictures that gave me these awards. The First Award I got was COC . That picture is my daughter Edrica who is Maryland. She's now 30 and very married.The challenge was When They were Little. The next one is for the Natures View Challenge and I won 2nd Place. Unbelievable! Now you i'm you understand why I can't find the time to make freebies? I hope so. I will be making some soon.

After a long time of planning, finally, I went to see a doctor. Hahaha. I guess I am just to scared of laboratory results but thank God my urinalysis is OK. i am scheduled for an executive checkup next week. I hope everythings clear and OK. Have a good day everyone. God bless you all!
