Mermaids by the pool-GrandDiva's Creative Corner

Hello Everyone!

Today I am sharing to you a layout based on the September sketch from GrandDiva's Creative Corner.  The photos I used was taken during our Company outing wherein we had a chance to become a mermaid for a day.  Me and my officemate Quennie had a blast on becoming a mermaid for a few hours.  Admit it, we all had a secret wish to become a disney princess and I was so glad that even for a little moment I felt like I was princess Ariel.  Being a mermaid was not easy, we had a bit of a difficulty swimming while wearing the costume.  But despite the discomfort, it was still so worth it!  Hope you all enjoy my layout.

Be Yourself-LGS September week 1

Hello Everyone!

Weddings brings people together.  It reunites people and gives them the chance to catch up with their lives.  The photo in my layout was taken during the wedding of my high school classmate Glaiza. A bit of a background with my high school friends:  We all got together during our junior year and have been friends ever since.  They are the type of people who supports whatever we want and wherein we could all be ourselves and not be afraid of showing who we are.  They are the type of friends who would comfort you when you are down and rejoice with you when you are happy.  They will not be afraid of telling you are wrong and will always remind you to do the right thing.  I really really treasure them and will always remain in my heart always.  The sketch I used in making this layout is from the Let's Get Sketchy September week 1 challenge.  I hope you will enjoy my layout!

Good times! - stick it down september challenge

Hello Everyone!

So sorry for the last blog posts!  I have been so busy this past few weeks with regular day job that I haven't been able to create new layouts.  I am so occupied with various work stuffs right now that the Green day song "Wake me up when September ends" seems to be the perfect theme song of my life right now.  Anyways, I finally had a bit of free time that I had made this layout as a way to "de-stress" myself.  I really felt the need to do something not work-related to relax.  And although many would argue that creating scrapbook layouts is hard work but for me, it is the opposite.  Scrapbook making relaxes my mind and the satisfaction of seeing the finished work motivates me more.  So I made this layout based on the sketch from Stick it down.  This photo was taken during one of my get-together's with my high school besties.  I loved this photo of me because it shows my transformation from a nerdy-geeky high school kid to a more girly and a bit more confident person.  I know I have been able to overcome some of my insecurities from high school and when people comments on my improvement, it gives me happiness.  I don't want to say that my high school life bad because I also had great times.  In high school, I met my friends that encouraged me not to feel bad about myself.  I admit, I suffered a bit from bullying but then these friends of mine defended me and made me see the amazing things about me.  They were the one who supported me and made me stand up against the people who had tried to put me down and I am forever grateful to them for being in my life when I thought that I was alone.  So enough of my drama and here is my layout.  I hope you will enjoy my layout!
