These Made Me Happy Today

It was a crappy work day, as usual. The only thing bright was the thought that it's Trendy Thursday, hahahaa and the AC Thickers which I've been oogling has finally descended MWL. But, these are the sweetest! Love, love, love the chicks and the butterflies!

You Are The Sunshine Of My Life

The title is one of my favorite songs. And, for some reason, I have associated it with Bebi A --- because her smile just makes our day, that even though, we come home tired, just seeing her smiling just takes off the "hard" from the day's work. Not to mention that she looks so much like me! Haha!

Another reason that this layour is so precious to me is because of what happened while I was doing it. Bebi A saw that I was scrapping her picture and she squealed, "my picture, my picture!" I think she was so happy. She then added which makes me giddy until now, "Mommy,I want to kiss you!" Isn't she the sweetest?!

You & Me

I seemed to be doing a lot of flower/bird cut-outs lately. I tend to look for flower patterns like the above. Is this just a phase? Hehe. I love this Webster Pages' "Delight" paper from the Sweet Charity Collection. The color is refreshing.

These Were Done

by Dawter T.

We (my daughters and myself) love penguins and the stamps from Imaginisce are just so cute!!! I made a gift tag with the boy penguin for our nephew yesterday and when the girls saw what I was doing, Dawter T asked if she can stamp for me. Being a better stamper than me, I agreed. We made 3 boy penguins. One for Bebi A which she gave to her daddy, for Dawter T (above) and the one I used for the gift tag. Later on, when Dawter T finished putting color on her penguin, she pleaded to use the girl penguin as well. I can't say no because I was so happy with her finish product, hehehe...

You Are Adorable

My simple take on Marix's Challenge #12 over at Scrappers At SG. I love the bird from Imaginisce! And, the penguins too (which are still unused hehehe)! This layout is a milestone because I get to use my clear stamp. Other materials are rub-ons from K&Co., Chipboard from Me and My Big Ideas, PPs from Amanda Blu, Doodlebug Design Inc. Girl Talk, Imaginisce Words Can't Express, (the polka dot pp was from Sister C).
