Free Birthday Digital Scrapbooking Kit

Today is my sister's birthday and I wanted to create a special birthday digiscrap LO just for her. I searched through the net to find a free kit that I can use. Most of the kits I found already have an expired link or already for purchase. But I didn't lose hope. I searched and searched until I found Designs by Megan Turnidge. Her blog is so cute and not to mention full of great freebies. Of course, I found what I have been looking for at her site.

You can download this kit on her website under freebies. You can also add her on facebook so you'll be updated on freebies her blog has to offer.

This is what I did with this layout.

Sweet Story

My sister commented on my facebook page why they don't have a solo pic on the layout I recently made. I told her I would make her her own layout using the same Sweet Story Telling Kit from Sahlin Studio.

So here it is...

A beautiful ordinary day

I was itching to create a new layout from the freebie kit I snagged from Sahlin Studio's Facebook Page and the template I downloaded from a digiscrap website (I could not remember where exactly *LOL).

So here it is....

Facebook Freebies

Two of the best sites in digital scrapbooking, The Lily Pad and Sahlin Studio, are giving away free full size kits at facebook. You have to like Sahlin Studio's page to get the Storytelling kit and The Lily Pad to show you the link to the freebie (It's their anniversary btw, that's why they are giving it away for free!).

Don't miss out on these great freebies!

I just have to blog about this...

I was browsing my facebook page last Saturday when I noticed that both my younger sisters have the same profile pic. Same as in same location, same angle, in short they looked the same. I created this LO and uploaded it on facebook. I just find it funny. Neither one of them wanted to change their profile pic, but the older of the two gave in.

So here's the simple layout I made using Peppermint Creative's Movie Night free kit.

A Tag for my baby

I made a tag for my gift to my baby for this year's Kris Kringle. I didn't have a hard time looking for what she requested. It could easily be bought at supermarkets. If you're wondering what it is, It's EQ diaper for new born. She is expecting her first baby this January. I bought her two packs, one for new born and the other size small, as I know babies tend to grow a lot faster these days. Anyway, here is the tag made from kits from SBG's Christmas Blog Train.



BTW, our theme for this year is Disney characters. :)

Happy Holidays

This is the season to be jolly. Yes, I am really feeling the spirit of Christmas. And I am uber excited to make lots of LOs with all the free christmas digikits I've been hording. There is an SBG blog train where you can download free christmas digi kits from different designers! Just don't forget to thank them when you download. You can find the link here.

And here is my take using one of the free kits on the blog train made by Thatyana of Thaty Borges Designs.



Apologies for the not so sharp picture. I couldn't seem to find a way to resize it without getting pixelated. Will research more on this.

Triplets

My sisters and I were always mistaken as triplets or sometimes twins in pictures. Some couldn't even tell who is who. It's cute but annoying sometimes.

I made an LO using Rakscraps October Mega Kit and template from Peppermint Creative's Pimp my Page. I added photos from our outing last summer in celebration of my Aunt's birthday.

New look

I've been wanting to change the look on my blog with my own design using digital scrapbooking papers and elements. The problem is, I don't know how. Last night, I had the time to search for tutorials. There are different techniques to do it but I found this to be the easiest.

Next project would be a blogger banner or maybe I can make this background more beautiful? :)

Sisters FOREVER

True to note. My sisters and I have a very special bond. A bond that cannot be broken by anything or anyone. No matter how mad we get with each other, we manage to fix it. We rely on each other through good times and bad. We lend each others' ears when someone gets heartbroken or had a bad day at the office. I am very lucky to have them not just as sisters but as true friends....

I Love You Guys!!!

MOJO kicks in

It's been a while since I made my last digital scrapbook. Our computer at home crashed and since my brother always uses his laptop I had no means of doing any layout, and besides I wasn't feeling like making any.

This week was a surprise, MOJO is lurking around. Though I have no means, there always seems to be a way. I did two layouts during office break time this week since my computer has Photoshop installed... :)

Here are two layouts I made... :)

Summer in SG

I've been wanting to revive my interest in digital scrapbooking. I have downloaded a few new kits but couldn't find the time to use them yet. So for now I resort to using Quickpages and I found a cute one here. It's a bragbook freebie and it contains lots of quickpages for boys and girls.

I've chosen one and dig up some photos from our Singapore trip last summer.

Hope to create more digiscrap LOs.

Zaiah's Invitation

My kinakapatid's daughter will be baptized and I was requested to become one of the Godmothers. Since my photography workshop is still ongoing, I was hoping that the event will happen on a Saturday so I can attend. Last Tuesday, I received a text message informing me that the baptism will be on May 24. I checked the calendar and it was a Sunday. Rodney (my kinakapatid) explained that he went to 3 churches already and all of them said that they only baptize on Sundays. That Sunday will be our graduation so I really can't miss it.

Yesterday, as Rodney and I were talking I told him that he should have scheduled it on May 31 so I can attend and at the same time offer my services as the photographer of the event. He was actually thinking of the same thing. Kahit ung mga pictures na lang daw ang iregalo ko. The next thing I know he was calling the church and had the date moved to May 31. Kakahiya sobra so in return I offer to make Zaiah an invitation and here's what I made for her.

I was kinda not satisfied with the first one because it looks like an invitation for a birthday party so I made another one.

Little Dreamer

I am constantly visiting Chikai and Buge's blog to check out the latest freebies in digital scrapbooking. Even though i'm not that active in scrapbooking because i've been very busy lately, I make sure I download digi kits that I like so that by the time my mojo kicks in there's something that I could use.

Our computer at home is very slow compared to what I use in the office so I do my downloading there (secretly *LOL*). Good thing they did not block any digital scrapbooking sites or else I would miss a lot of freebies. Due to the recent National Scrabook day, a lot of great designers posted their digi kits for free download. I had discovered this great site which features a lot freebies, you can check it out here.

Here are the LOs I made using two kits I downloaded. Featured in this LOs is my very cute nephew Miguel Carlisle.

Happy Holidays

We would like to greet everyone...

Comfort Food for the soul

They say this is America's most favorite comfort food. I first tasted its goodness at Kenny Rogers. What else am I talking about but the yummy tasty goodness of macaroni and cheese. I was looking for recipes in the net and I was surprised to see a lot. Different variants, different ways of cooking. I chose a few and was planning to try to cook them when I have time. I found the recipes here.

Since this is a very special dish to me. I made a layout using Wanda's recipe card. You can grab it for free at her blog. Don't forget to leave her some love...

Scrap Time

Now that review is officially over, I had some time to scrap and look for some freebies on digital scrapbooking. There's too many to download! Here's a layout I did with the kit I learned from che's blog.

You'll see more LOs soon...

Bebots

Eversince I joined this group, I've been hooked. I learned a lot about photoshop and digital scrapbooking. The members are very nice too. They have a lot of experience with digital scrapbooking, so every question I ask, they surely know the answer.

Thanks Girls for the warm welcome! I hope to post my LOs soon. (Now that I know how to sharpen my LOs *LOL*)

Freebies Gallore

My sister is getting married soon and she asked me if I could make her an invitation using my scrapbooking skills *LOL* (parang expert na e no?). I agreed, the problem is I don't have any kits suitable for a wedding invitation. Then I remembered Wanda's invitation to join this website for pinay digiscrappers. I joined and was so happy! 'Di ko akalain marami pa lang nagdidigiscrapbooking. I received a warm welcome from some of the members. The best part is I learned a lot of freebies site. Haven't found a kit for my project but I snagged a few from Che's blog. Love her blog, dami freebies!

I also learned a lot of tips and tricks with regards to using PS. Mas madalas na kong maglog dito kaysa sa Friendster *LOL*

Here are some of the kits I downloaded:

Fabulous : The K-Kit

Made my own

As you can see I have a new banner for my blog. It's not so simple anymore although the LO that I did is still simple. You can check the credits here. If I have time I'll change it again, I still need to find pretty kits so can make a prettier banner *LOL*.
