Deanne Burton: May 15 sketch

Here's my take on Deanne Burton's May 15 card sketch.
Thanks for viewing!

I used Daisy D's, 7gypsies and Autumn Leaves pps. Bazzill cs. Rhonna Farrer rubons (courtesy of my friend MARJ). Colorbox and Distress Inks. Inque Boutique stamp. Lace trim, flower brad and staples.

Some new cards

Whenever I feel like doing something crafty but not a scrapbook layout, I resort to making cards. I know I don't make cards like those soooo beautiful ones :)
Before, I thought I would never brave the world of card-making. Now, I find it very therapeutic as well and I enjoy it as much as I enjoy scrapbooking itself.
Here are four of my cards out of scraps...
(have lots of these scraps of corrugated papers, cut all of it in heart-shape when i was watching tv :D uhuh, im a weirdo a lot times)
(found this cutout flower in my "bag of scraps")

(see, another card with my corrugated papers hehehe)

I love my binkie

I am in the process of completing my niece's baby album :D Uh, I forgot it still has some few months missing :D
Here's one of my late submissions hehehe
Thanks for viewing!

Just Married

I used one my brother's and sil's pre-wedding pics on this layout.
I made a template for the scalloped edges. I love masking these past few days :D
The second one is the tarp I designed for their wedding. Though the titles were kind of small when printed, it turned out pretty well...I guess (it's my first time to design a tarp). As they say, love your own lol!! :D
Thanks for viewing :)

It's exactly 1 year, 10 months and 37 days since my husband left for work abroad.
As I was looking for a current photo of us together, sad and shocking it may seem but this particular photo was the only one I found. And this was TWO SUMMERS AGO! Yikes! :)
This is supposed to be my entry for the Kaya blog challenge but I was informed that it's disqualified. One of the conditions to be met is the focal photo should be a current one...well, obviously I failed on that one heehee But it's okay, no biggie.
Anyways, this one still qualifies for one of Dixie Pieces' weekly challenge: Color Combo BLUE BROWN and WHITE/CREAM.
Here it is, thanks for looking! :)

Dixie Pieces April projects

... and these will be my last take on their wonderful monthly kits.
I'm so happy to be given a chance to be part of their team. They trusted me enough to take me on their wings.
So lucky to be able to "meet" Sherry and Brenna, two of the most generous, kind and sweet people ever...My fellow DT members, who've been all so supportive and kind as well.
Thanks so much Chicks! :)
Will do my best to continue supporting Dixie Pieces, in any way I can ;)
To the new DT members - Elisa, Ginnifer and Lynda, can't wait to see your fabulous creations! Goodluck! :)
