I love taking pictures of my daughter and a lot of times they don't turn out the way I like them to turn out. Most of the time, I cannot make her stay in one place so I can take a picture of her. Although now that she is a little older she can actually say "cheese" and pose for the camera. But that will take like 1 second and she is off somewhere else.
Here's a sample of some good photos I took and some where she start moving before my camera can catch her. ;) My entry for

Hue of Green Mini Kit
It has always fascinated me on how designers creates digital scrapbooking elements or anything to do with digital scrapbooking. So I thought I'd get my hands dirty and start making small elements at a time... to sort of practice. And so far I have created 2 freebies already. If you missed both of my freebies, you can get it here and here. Download them if you like it.
The 2 freebies that I had was mainly papers and alphas. So I thought I'd try making some small elements and I think it turned out decent enough for scrappers to use.
I call this element... "Hue of Green". I love green color, it's probably why the name has green on it. This mini kit comes with 7 papers, 3 are solids and 4 has prints on it, 3 flowers, a shrub, 2 square frames and an lower case alpha.
Check out the preview below. And by the way, this is my entry for

Custom Headers For Single Parents Unite (WW)
I've been working on a couple of designs lately and so far I am pleased as to how they are turning out. The two headers are the same layout just different on the color scheme but the one in the middle is a different scenery although the theme is the same. Basically I came up with the design based on the title of the blog and just started putting the pieces together. The owner of the blog actually choose the one at the bottom but I also love the one in the middle.
The header in the middle, I added the little girl in the window peaking to give it a different appeal.

Pure Laughter - Scrapbook Saturday
Taken last Saturday when we went to McDonald and this McDonald don't have any play area. Rare for a McDonald with no play area. But since they don't have a play area we goof around with the little one. Here's one of her photo when she was giggling so much.On this photo she looks so grown up with her hair tied in pigtail and it somehow reminds me that the little one is growing up so fast.
Back in the days... when I was Skinny
I was looking around for some photos that I can use for my first entry for scrapbook Saturday and I found this one. I don't usually use my photo for scrapbooking layout, but for a change I decided to use it.
This photo was taken just 2 months after I got married and for our second month anniversary we went to the lake..

Van Campenhout - Reyes Nuptial
One of my closest friend is tying the knot this coming September of 2008. And I got inspired by the thoughts of getting married. So I used this template and added a little bit of design to it. The template was premade by Lauraskathi and then I added the 2 background color, put a little shadow on the first green background, add a little bit of wordings and it turned out just the way I like it.
