My Maiya

It's Friday! Yeah! I am feeling a bit sick-o since yesterday afternoon, nauseated really. Am I preggo? Not sure. I can't be tho'. I'll wait a few days and see if this feeling persists.

Anyway, here's another layout I did using the AMM Sept 09 kit. This is of my daughter, Maiya. I used 2 different sizes of her school pic for this SY. She is 8 yrs here.


Here's a few close-ups of the intimate details:





Have a beautiful Friday!

we really do wish...

I made this layout of my stepdaughter, Ashley. She's grown so fast. The last time I saw her was in October during the weekend of our wedding. She's coming home in about 2 weeks! yeah. Here's what I made, I used her school pictures SY 2009-2010:




I used the AMM October '09 kit for this layout. Journaling: we wish you were with us everyday...maybe someday you will be.

Here's a layout of my godson, Davin. I cut up a picture card that was sent to me and just couldn't resist scrapping it. I used an AMM kit from a previous month...


Lastly, I did a page on me myself and I entitled "lifestyle." I got this title just recently from a little conversation I had with my hubby. We were just talking about how we are both very happy and satisfied with our lifestyle and wouldn't change a thing about it. Here it is:


Thanks for checking my stuff out!

And here's few more wedding beauties...

Here are the little details that also count....

The ring bearers' boxes....I really didn't want to be traditional with a pillow....so I thought I would do something different and bought 2 small boxes and decked them out with my touch:



The flower girls' bags.... I used 3 different colored chinese take out boxes/bags for the petals...





The cupcakes decor sticks, just popped on some cut out hearts onto candy sticks and added a little glitter:


Candy bouquet tags:

Here are the 6x6 cards I made for each of the guest tables, they definitely turned out so great:






Here's the last of them:

I have been away, but now I'm back!

Hi everyone! It's been way too long! I think the last post i did was back in July. I've just been busy with wedding plans. Our wedding just happened this past Saturday, October 24, 2009. And boy! it was so much fun! everything went so smoothly and beautifully...at least that's how I saw it! Everyone had so much fun, especially my husband! Once I get some wedding pix, I'll post them here.

I created quite a few things for our wedding and that's why I haven't posted and blogged in awhile. I wanted to wait until after the wedding. I've been on vacation since Thursday, but now I"m really on vacation. Tomorrow we leave for our honeymoon to Hawaii. my 1st time ever and I'm so excited. I'm even more excited because it's gonna be with my soulmate, Jesse. Gosh I love this man...

Here is what I did for the wedding:

These are layouts I did that was scattered throughout the reception, welcoming table, etc.







This one is my all time favorite one:

Well well well look what I did....

The secret ingredient in life is love...

Sad to Hear Memory Makers is Gone!

Unfortunately, one of the scrapbooking magazines I subscribed to is ceasing publication due to the economy. So sad. They also had to cancel the 2010 Memory Makers Masters competition. I was going to enter this one, my very 1st one! I haven't even scrapped the main page with the theme of "My Life..." But I still will anyway. But here are the potential, additional ones that I was going to submit:





1: me, my sis and our BF, risa. we have gone through so much together since college and now we have babies. well risa is going to have 1st baby boy!
2: my daughter and my niece. 2 sweet angels and the only girlies in our immediate family. so adorable!
3: my daughter after a wedding. she just had to hold the bouquet!
4: my sis. a tribute to her and how grateful I am that she is in my life.
