My Digital Canvass

With Christmas around the corner, I decided to make a special gift for my friends Dudee, Juliet and Jane. I copied the idea from Gwacie's blog. I made a 2011 calendar with every month I made in 4R size  showing photos of my friends and their children.  I made them as early as August and bought my photo album from Dimensione.

                                       And this is how the cover page will look when placed inside
                                                                          the photo album.

   For this lay-out, I used pictures of Mia while she was learning to color on some doodles Ira made on a big cartolina.Well it's a work in progress....

                          This lay-out is made for my friend Juliet taken when we had our Tagaytay trip last June. Juliet and me with 4 other Mommies started our friendship when we were all hanging out in our kid's preschool. After 8 years we are still strongly bonded. Juliet in particular is one of my friends whom I really admire because of her fierce love for her children despite bad things that had happened to them. For that I salute you, Juliet!!!!

  Last June 28 was our 13th wedding anniversary and though my hubby wasn't here I made it a point to celebrate the day with my kids. I bought a cake and had ordered in food. It was raining so hard that day so we cancelled our plans to eat out. Time is really  coming in so fast that I can still remember my wedding day, how i felt so giddy with excitement on our spending our life together. I love you so much Papa and i'm so looking forward to having wrinkles and thinning hair with you. Just keep safe always =)

                  After scouring through different digiscrapping websites for an inspiration to make a new lay-out, I stumbled upon this QP (please see above) which I instantly loved and copied the concept. You could say it is a scraplift, but I changed the design around the edges. Even though Mia turned one last Feb., consider it as my belated tribute to my baby girl who never fails to light our daily lives with her rambunctious personality.

In time for the coming Father's day tomorrow, I made this lay-out of my husband Gerry with our 3 kids. In this photo, he just got home from overseas for a brief vacation. He definitely makes the most of his time bonding with them. He's the complete package..the perfect husband, best friend and of course the perfect FATHER. We love you so much Papa, do take care always and we can't wait for you to come home soon.

     Dudee, Jane, Juliet, Irene and I met when our daughters went
to the same pre-school. We hang out with each other every single
day until it was time for our kids' dismissal time. When we parted
after 2 years when it was time for them to transfer to different
elementary schools, we always make it a point to keep in touch and
meet as much as we could. Irene had been living in Saudi Arabia for
a couple of years now and when she and her family went home for
a visit last May we decided to get together again. It was a day full
of laughter and memories. We all know in our hearts we are all like
sisters and friends for life.... till our next gimmick girls!!!!!

Watching my daughter's graduation rites made me
nostalgic about my own college ceremonies. I was able to
spend 4 unforgettable years of my life in the company of my
so called siblings and partners in crime. I was able to discover
who I really am in College....from the late night gimmicks, to
my introduction to alcohol ( which I never got a strong liking,
thank God!!!) . but most of all, to the mighty bond strong
friendship which we have up to now and probably forever...

Since April is the birth month of my parents, I decided
to make a new lay-out with them in mind. They are married for
more than 42 years now and yet they so opposite.... with 8 grand-
children and another one coming soon, they have been my parents'
source of joy and probably the reason why they are living so grace
fully. Happy Birthday Papa and Mama !!! hugs and kisses.....
