I have a hard time using 2 to 3 patterned papers in one layout. I tried playing with pps last night and made an all paper LO. Got the idea of an all paper LO from dinah's bloggie.
My mom's arowana died last april 2008. Hubby decided to bring it to a taxidermist for preservation and give it as a gift for his dear MIL.He used acrylic enclosure for the housing. I was so happy because i got the scrap acrylic sheets. Out of the excess sheets, i made my first 6x6 acrylic album...first time with acrylics...with the limited materials i have, "anything goes, basta makabuo ako ng album."
One of the things my 4.5 year old daughter Anika and my husband like to do for bonding is wrestling/karate...When McDonalds had the Kung Fu Panda Happy Meal toys, my husband bought one for Anika. Now, she has 6 toys already...I told my husband not to get her another kung fu character. "Ang mahal na ng inabot nung toy, kung binili ko na lang siya ng nuggets sa grocery, eh di ang dami pa nun." But when i saw her drawing last week, i said to myself, "nako, she found inspiration from the toys." My husband and i were surprised with the finished art she made.
This is how supportive my hubby when it comes to my hobby...He altered my scrapbook trolley. This is a stanley gray toolbox given by my husband last year.Sayang, i didn't take a picture of it before he painted it with pink. Aside from the hair dryer i got from him as a bday gift last May, he surprised me with this altered toolbox...pati mga stickers siya ang nagpagawa...I'm so happy...sabi niya gamitin ko daw sa scrapjam...kahit konti lang dala ko, i'm going to use it, baka magtampo pag hindi ko ginamit.
Gaya-gaya lang po ako ng sketch and color combinations...i was also inspired by cookie...ganda ng mga lo's niya...i always visit her blog, wow! laging may bago siyang creation.
