Hi all! It’s the weekend again. I hope you guys will have fun. We’re planning to watch Kung Fu Panda this Sunday. I hope the queues are shorter this time :) So, just to share some pages… (Kindly click on the images for the credits)

First, from Lorie M’s Happiness Mini Kit freebie, available at her blog. This is my daughter Danielle in our sofa. I took this picture while she was watching TV.

For the Weeds and Wildflowers challenge at their blog. The freebie is from Gina Marie Huff. I just love this picture of my daughter and my husband’s niece. I took this picture in our living room again. This just makes me smile. *Sigh* To be a child again… I love this page because of the picture and all those swirls :)

Here is my goddaughter Serine. I told you she rarely smiles :)

By the way, if you have a Scrapbook Flair account, you might want to join the Bebots group. It’s a little group I created at Scrapbook Flair for Pinay scrappers. I hope you will consider joining. We can all inspire and learn from each other. But most of all, let’s all have fun right? The current members are LulaScraps, jra923, iloveleanne and basang.

I’m trying something new with my pages, and it’s the color black.

I love using black backgrounds because elements and pictures literally pop out from the dark background, especially when using bright colored elements.

Here are some attempts at using a black background. Thanks for looking :)

What could be more perfect than cookies on a rainy afternoon? I ain’t talking about those edible cookies that I absolutely love, but a Cookie Decorating challenge from Sweet Shoppe Designs.

So now let’s talk about the weather… Here in Baguio, it has been raining every afternoon. It’s cold and wet. And I love it! Nothing better than sipping a cup of coffee in front of a computer making layouts. LOL :)

Here’s my second cookie. I downloaded the template from SSD. The template is from Cindy, based on MandaBean’s layout.

Here’s Cindy’s take on the template:

For my layout, I used Kay Miller’s All Organic Kit which is available at her shop. Let me just say that I love her kits! I know you’ll be singing the same tune after you visit her shop :)

Here’s a preview of the All Organic Kit from Kay Miller:

And here’s my layout for the cookie decorating challenge at SSD.

The journaling for this page is special because I used a song by Martina McBride. I love the lyrics to her song, “In My Daughter’s Eyes”. It is such a touching and beautiful song.

Before I end this post, check out these other kits from Kay Miller that I absolutely love : Lovin Life and Simple Pleasures

Cheers! :)
