Clip Art: Gorgeous Birds

Guess what? Today the rain has stopped and I got to hear the birds outside our home chirping. One of the main reason why I love going home is that I can get closer to nature and I can hear the birds singing.

This is a great day to start my 2012. I got to see some old friends too. Most people would make their resolution list for the next year. And one of the items I have in my list is to nourish friendships and relationships.

Scrapbook Idea: Year End Love Photo

One more sleep, just one more sleep and we'll bid 2011 goodbye. We will say hello to the year of the dragon and move forward for the next year. Another year for more experiences and another chance of living life to the fullest.

For me, it will be another year to share my scrapbooking ideas, to share the digital cliparts I made and to share love. To be a vessel of blessing. And today, before I say farewell to the year 2011, let me share to you our last photo together which I turned into a scrapbook page. You might have a husband or a partner whom will not be spending the new year with you, then better take a photo of you together before the year ends. 

As for me, since I am going home to Bohol and James on the other hand will be in Oslob. The photos above are our final photo for 2011.

Clipart: Vector Heart Birds

Hello everyone! I am glad I have something to post today. Due to the Holiday seasons, I was not able to update this one. I went home for vacation and I was kinda sad because of the rain, I was not able to hear the chirping of the birds. I am already used to hearing them sing in the morning and I could see them fly their way to the ricefields.

And because of that, I decided to make new bird clip arts for today. This is for the birds who were unable to sing and fly because of the bad weather. I had posted some bird clip arts before too. Check them out here.

Clipart: Blue Christmas Tree

It's Christmas day today! I hope everyone had a great time with their own families with their own presents ready as well. Was your Christmas tree filled with gifts? Did you also receive gifts from your family members? I hope you had a wonderful time during the noche buena. We had our own noche buena too before Christmas.There were a lot of food of course, ham is present, we had deserts and ice cream too!

BG: Dots Dots

It's Christmas all over the world tonight. Before the clock strikes twelve, I would like to give you guys my Christmas present. I created this just a few minutes ago using Adobe Photoshop and instead of posting those old ones, I decided to share this instead. Hope you will like it guys!

So how is your Christmas eve? I am at home right now and will be celebrating my Christmas here. We have food and deserts tonight, our Christmas tree is filled with presents as well. We are all ready for Christmas now!

Clipart: My Modern Christmas Tree

It's four days before Christmas! Is everyone ready for gift giving and the Noche Buena as well on Christmas eve? Good for me because I am all done with the presents for my loved ones. I have also prepared everything that I need since I am going home to Bohol in the 23rd. I am just glad I could celebrate Christmas with the family! 

Anyway, since Christmas is fast approaching, I believe everyone had already set up their own Christmas trees as well. I don't have a Christmas tree in my apartment but my mom had set up one at home. I haven't seen it yet but I will be soon. So since I don't have a physical Christmas tree here in Cebu, I had created my own digital Christmas tree to fit the holiday season. 

Cliparts: Vector Birds

Birds are irresistibly cute and adorable, most specially if you had witnessed them sing on early mornings. Whenever I go home in Bohol, I can hear birds singing in the morning, I feel lucky and happy because some people haven't heard them sing or even chirp. Though I can only see them from a distance, their cute little voices had brighten my day.

Indeed living in the province gives us the most wonderful things in life such as that one. When I am in the city for work, all I hear are the sound of the machines, the whistles of the buses and all other noisy things. I am glad that once in a while I could get to experience nature's great gift.

BG: White Polka Big And Small On Pink Canvass

I don't know what to post today, I just checked anything available on my drive and found this two images. Because I am a Polka Dot lover and I can't resist their cuteness, I gladly wrapped the two of them for you guys. I know right? Those polkas look like snow drops it makes me feel Christmas here.

Well it's almost Christmas, in fact it is only 11 days before the Christmas day. Hopefully you would enjoy that special day with your family and loved ones. As for me, I will be joyfully merrymaking with my family in Bohol. Don't forget to remember why and what was the main reason for Christmas. Hope everyone would really celebrate Christmas for its sole reason.

BG: Vintage Pink Polka

I have been in love with Polka Dots that almost every design or scrapbook idea I post has a taste and influenced by it. Let's say the latest scrapbook design I posted here was the Love Photo Stamp.

If you try to look at it, the background image used there was the Polka dots with a color that is somehow reminds me of a vintage pink stuff and that is how the title of this post emerged. Anyway, this Vintage Pink Polka image is up for grabs and it's free!

BG: Old Paper Texture

I miss background images and because of that, I have new bgs for you today. This is from an old paper mixed with the corresponding colors. I will make use of those images in future scrapbook pages so you have to watch for it.

Hey it's 17 days before Christmas, have you already wrapped some gifts? I have wrapped mine too and excited to give it to my godchildren and my family members as well.

BG: Another Postal Stamps

I had posted some postal stamp backgrounds before already yet today, I am gonna share the same type however with a slight difference. Reason why I have another set is because there might be people who just want to make a stamp without the grids which the previous one has. 

If you could also recall, I used the background for my Love Stamp scrapbook idea post. I made it as the border for the photo and it looked very nice for me.

Scrapbook Idea: Love Photo Stamp

It isn't the month of love yet but I am posting this scrapbook page/photo template because I want to welcome December with nothing but love love love. Love, in the first place is the reason why we have Christmas.

The photo template is perfect for those who has found their partners in life. I have found mine and I pray he will be the same person whom I am facing the altar with in the future. Teehee...

The photo label goes like this:

BG: Snow Flakes

It's 27 days before Christmas, time has really passed pretty quick, faster than you'll ever think of. I can still recall when I was in our office last year, watching the fireworks on Christmas eve from the glass windows (yes, we light up firecrackers on Christmas eve here in the Philippines). Fortunately, I won't be missing my family on Christmas eve this year because I am definitely going home! I am quite excited for that and because I am happy thinking about the Holiday season, I have started creating my Christmas digital scrapbook elements because I sure will be making a lot of scrapbook pages for the photos I will be taking once I reach home.

Scrapbook Idea: Baby Biography

I had fun while making this digital scrapbook page yesterday with Adobe Photoshop. One reason was because of the hobbies I entered on the scrap page. This is actually a baby biography and if you are a parent, a mom or a dad, this will be a great page for your baby or babies. 

I am planning of printing all of my digital scrapbook ideas or photo template with Aiesha as the photo on it and give it to her on her second birthday, it will be great if she will see that scrapbook when she grow up also.

Scrapbook Idea: Team Work

Before anything else, I want to greet everyone my American buddies a Happy Thanksgiving day. 

As you all know, I work in a BPO company and our Account is turning eight this Sunday and that means party party! Yes you read it right, we will be having a party on November 27, 2011 that's Sunday here in the Philippines. I had joined two account parties before with themes Luau and Urban Rock, this year, we are gonna be having Fairytale and Cosplay. I am quite excited about this since our team will also be participating in a competition.

Scrapbook Idea: Photo Collage

Looking at a lot of photos we took when we were in Naga gave me an idea of creating a scrapbook page composed of all photos, I mean mostly photos. So I started selecting the photos one by one and arranging them in random order until I come up with this layout. Funny how I was able to add those neon colors afterwards. This is just a random idea which I never regret attempting to realize in Photoshop.

BG: Gridded

Background image for today is the gridded ones which I used with the scrap page Coffees and Friends. There are actually two kinds of them, one with yellow grids and gray ones as well. I used the yellow grids with the old scrap page.

BG: Border Stitch

If you happen to check the scrap page / photo template I created and posted yesterday titled Love When There's Love To Have, you should be familiar with this background images that I am about to give away today. I was able to make this background image all out from scratch through the help of the all-mighty Photoshop brushes. I am an addict when it comes to Photoshop brushes, I download everything just as long as its free. And you must not underestimate the power of brushes. Just look at what I was able to make out from the brushes I had stocked in my drive.

Scrapbook Idea: Love When There's Love to Have

The scenery is very nice, I couldn't help but create a new scrap page using our photos from our Naga City bonding with James. I just learned that Naga City has more to offer when it comes to a romantic view. This area here had become a lovers' lane actually and we had included ourselves there. Teehee... It was a view we can't resist to include on the book of our love story.

Scrapbook Idea: True Love

True love indeed. This scrap page slash photo template is dedicated to my grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Antonio Beltran. They had been in love for more than decades, in sickness or in health they had stayed by each others' side. 

BG: Postal Stamps

Let me share to you one thing about me, way back during my teenage life, I had been addicted to collecting postal stamps. I had some friends from the other end of the globe and I would ask her to send me variety of those. I do also have a lot of domestic pen pals whom I had been sharing how my life is going on and this and that. It was costly since I need to send each of them letters from time to time which in return they would actually reply as well. 

BG: Starry Night

Welcome back the bg series! I guess I had ran out of photos to use in my photo templates so I thought I'd better bring back the old style. So just expect that in the days to come, I will be posting more of my bg cravings. I miss creating background images. As a start of this series, I had created a starry image. Actually, I thought I had created one already, I just can't recall if those were composed of big or tiny stars but this one is for sure, the images for today are new ones I created just a few days ago, I guess I need to do some back tracking. 

Scrapbook Idea: Coffee and Friends

Friends are like rainbows, they make our stay here on earth colorful. We might have a lot of friends but there should be one or two who stands out among the rest and we call them best-friends, BFFs named it all. 

Scrapbook Idea: Coffee Time at Cafe Noriter

It's a beautiful day today, I was watching another Korean series entitled "Lady Castle". While waiting for one of the Youtube videos to buffer, I found myself creating new scrap pages again. I have no new photos so I just digged into my old ones and found those ones above.

Scrapbook Idea: Father and Daughter Bonding

I was scanning through my disk's photos because I was planning of deleting some of them to free up some memory space however, when I bumped into these photos where my Manoy (older brother) Steven, Baby Aiesha's dad was carrying Aiesha. Those were taken last April during our Family Reunion at Anda Global Beach and all of a sudden, I was inspired to create a new photo template.

So here it goes... Hope you like it and if you want to grab it, it's all for free. You just need an Adobe Photoshop to use this.

Scrapbook Idea: Bubble Play

Hello guys! It's been awhile since my last post and I had missed scrapbooking! I had been busy and I went home last week as well. For today, I am sharing this new scrap page I just instantly made today from the photos I took when I went home. 

So before I went home, I tried my best to buy and bring along with me some toys for my niece. I decided to buy a Spongebob bubble maker. And she had enjoyed playing with the bubbles we made for her. She tried to make bubbles herself too but unfortunately, she wasn't good at it yet. She will soon learn how to do it I bet but for now, she needs our help.

Scrapbook Idea: Polaroids

If you had downloaded the previous post about my niece, Aiesha's scrap page, then you will certainly be pretty downloading this one too. Obviously, these photos inside the scrap page are taken the same date with that of the previous scrap page.

Aiesha had given our family such great joy that no one can actually replace. So since she is still an innocent baby, I want to make sure her growth is documented through the scrap pages that I had created so that when she grows up, she will be able to see these scrap pages, hopefully at that time, I am still maintaining this blog.

Scrapbook Idea: Aiesha Pose

I went on a week vacation at home in Bohol last week and the only thing I did there was play with my niece, Aiesha. She has been very sweet and energetic. She sings and dances with me and all I did was laugh and be amazed with her skills.

Aside from that, I also enjoyed taking photographs of her whenever there is a chance. The photo above was one of those days when all we did was play and take photos. Thanks to digital photography.

Scrapbook Idea: Eat at Casa Verde

Eating is beautiful, it lifts up bad moods and gives a tasty pleasure which eliminates all negative vibrations. Ever thought why broken hearted people turn their attention to food? I know one of my college friends was like that. Anyway, let's not talk about love but let's deal with food. James and I hang out at some restos but we don't do that often, only on of course, special occasions.

We had lunch with my former team mates at Casa Verde in Ayala Terraces. This was like three or four months ago. I love their baby back ribs and the whole mighty huge hamburger is just delighting! Both are affordable, the serving can be shared by two for the baby back ribs, you just had to add one more cup of rice then. Teehee...

Scrapbook Idea: Rizal Boulevard

This is just a continuation of the previous photo template that I had posted. Last time, I showcased the photos of Dumaguete City's attraction like the Bell. In this photo template, James and I were in Rizal Boulevard. We took photos the night before this and the place was really beautiful. This is how the place looks like during the day. If you are wondering how beautiful it is at night, you gotta visit the city. Here is a glimpse of the area:

Scrapbook Idea: Dumaguete Baby!

Yes we've been to Dumaguete City for our third anniversary and it was a great experience. Great in a sense that it was our first time to be on another island together and it's the first anniversary that we decided to spend it out of town so I am looking forward for future out of towns because I am lovin' it.

So Dumaguete is known as the city of gentle people and that you can really see the people in that island as really gentle. The city is very safe at night, not to mention that they have such a romantic Rizal Boulevard. The city is also calm during the day, because its a small city, you can tour around the entire place half a day.

Scrapbook Idea: Simplicity

End of June and we had nothing to do, we ended up going to Taoist Temple. We haven't been there since college. Found a lot of tourists as there visiting the place with their guides, it was a new adventure since the belief the Chinese has is different from our faith. Here's a pose for that new adventure!

You can download this photo template for free. Just make sure to edit the texts in the psd file. The fonts used here are Typewriterhand for the story in the photo, for the date, venue  and beauty is WC Wunderbach Rough BTA, for the word when is channel and for the word becomes is Fmiring Campotype one.

Scrapbook Idea: Aiesha Hearts Icecream

My niece Aiesha Zaila Beltran is an icecream lover. She has been introduced to this cold, sweet and yummy thing since she was nine months old and from there, she has been addicted. Yeah I know addiction is not a good thing which is why we would only let her eat icecream whenever there's a special event. Like this one in the photos, this was during my mom's 51st birthday celebration. I personally bought the icecream for her and as soon as she saw the plastic bag containing the gallon, her energy spiked to the highest level. Hehe...

The three photos there on the left side are the snapshots while she was eating the thing. Look how she adores it, we would often tease her and take the icecream away from her and then she cries to death. Lols.

Scrapbook Idea: Camera Addict

I won't deny the truth that I am a camera addict. Yeah I know that addiction is a negative term but can you blame me? I love to take photos though I love taking photos other people than my own portrait. This photo template shows my vain side and how I pose in front of the camera. Pretty odd. LMAO.

So, what do we have here? In this photo template, same as usual, you can do all you can, take away the photos, that's fine. You can change the texts in there. BTW, the text says:

Scrapbook Idea: Look Who's Got A New Haircut?

James a new hair cut a few days ago, this is quiet different from what his hairstyle was before. He had a long side-way bangs Korean-looking hairstyle with a longer hair tail at the back part. He had been keeping his hair long for almost a year, trimming them only when needed. I was wanting to cut the hair already because it was a distraction. His eyes were hidden by the bangs and in the first place, I was the one who wanted bangs for myself but up until now, I can't still afford to get one but he effortlessly gets it. Blame it to the curly hair genes.

Anyway, here's some examples of how he looked before the haircut:

Scrapbook Idea: Semaj in Camotes

James in Camotes Island during team Papa Joe's team building last April of 2011. In the first photo, the leftmost part, we were in Lake Danao, second one was in Buho Rock where I saw the most beautiful open sea area, the sea was blue and the perfect sky compliments the color of both ends. The third picture, we were in Bukilat Cave, it was a large cave with a hole in the center. The last photo, we were in Mangodlong Beach Resort, I must say that it's a very nice place to  enjoy the beach as well. 

The texts say:

it's the time of year when people long for the beach and to just getaway, when being free is always what matters and having friends and loved-ones beside you is the only wish. To take a dive, swim with love.
Summer is actually LOVE.

Scrapbook Idea: How to Open the Puzzle House

The paragraph on the right side states:

"One time I went home, I brought a puzzle house with me. Baby Aiesha curiously started placing those shape blocks inside but after doing so, se can't anymore take them out. She started figuring out how to open the puzzle house. The photos show how she tried all she can to open the toy. It took time but time doesn't matter because that day, she was victorious!"

Our baby Aiesha is very bright, she knows how to count from one to five, she also knows where the moon is, at an early age when she can't walk yet, she already knows how to say mommy and daddy. She whistles and blows the horn pretty well. 

Scrapbook Idea: A Date at Cebu's Shoe Capital

August has been a month of get aways for both of us and one of the places we've been to was in Cebu's Shoe Capital, Carcar City. I made a photo template for that special day showing off the food we ate and the biggest shoe both of us ever saw so far. The shoes available at the Carcar Shoe Expo is also included in the template.

I am not sure if you guys had been to something like this in your area but I believe you can use this photo template. You have the freedom to change the text of this template as well as the photos so worry no more. The lay out is all yours.

Scrapbook Idea: Flower For Me

Hello hello every one! Share with me this nice flower bud given to me by my only, this was taken last May. I know it's kinda late to post it but who would mind? Teehee... 

Anyway, I have added some song lyrics here, if you are familiar with this song, it's title is Rolling in the Deep by Adele. I had last song syndrome with this one last few days and I thought I can add it in here. James loves that song too so it's just perfect.

On the photoshop file, you can edit the texts, fonts used were for Date and venue,  Typewriter from hell, the title, flower for me is Cartoonic Massive Collage and the Lyrics would be Channel.

Scrapbook Idea: Precious Family Moments

This is really cute. I love the little stick family doodle placed on the top of the date box. I don't actually own that doodle, I randomly found it on facebook and grabbed it right away. I then thought of my family when I saw this. So, immediately, I made another photo template with my family in it, including my tiny weeny niece.

This photo template is up for grabs, you can just change the names on the tag and the photos in the photoshop file. Don't forget to create a strike on the photo or you can just leave it as is. The fonts used are for the names, the only exception, Vegetable for the date, for the word precious is vtks giz, Unicorn for the word family and Philing for moments.

Scrapbook Idea: Lunch Date

A lunch date will never be a lunch date without him. Often times, we would agree to go out and eat lunch together. These few weeks, we haven't done that because of our busy schedules and that's why I made this one today to reminisce the times when we would have lunch together. 

This is out for grabs, totally free. In the psd file, you just need to hide  or delete our photos, it's up to you if you want to use your own title. By the way, the font used in the title and the dates is My Own Topher which you can download here.

Scrapbook Idea: Jump Jump Jump

Hey there everybody! I have here our jump photos at Sunflower Resort which lies at Malbog, Jagna, Bohol. The place is awesome and the view is very astonishing. I made this scrapbook page or photo template for today.

This is open for grabs, you can change the date and the photos in here, by the way, the font used for the date is My Own Topher which you can download by clicking on the font's name or simply google it.

On the photoshop file, all you have to change is the photos section, you can simply hide my own photos and place your own. Enjoy!!!

Scrapbook Idea: Bubbly Aiesha

That girl in the photo template is my first niece. She is already a year and seven months old now but she was still one year old when that photo was taken. At her early age, she is already a fast learner, she knows how to blow the whistle, point the moon, count one to five, and a lot more. The phototemplate was of course inspired by her and I love her. 

If you have a niece, you can use this template for a scrapbook page. Enjoy! click on the image to download the psd file.

The font used for Aiesha's name is Tonight's the Night and you can download it here, while the date text is Century Gothic.

Scrapbook Idea: Happy Time

Happy times are good when taken into photography even better when made into a scrap-page. That's what I love about taking photographs, it brings back memories and the feeling of yesterday.

In line with that, I had made my very own happy time photo template for today and I bet each of you has your own happy times as well so you surely would love to grab this one here.

So to every happy memory that you had photographed, treasure it. The best thing about photographs is that the memory does not change though the people in it change.

Scrapbook Idea: James and Jean

Well, I am just happy because I was able to make this photo template today. I love it of course because the photo template shows how I love him. Teehee.

I hope you love it too and use it with your own as well. If anyone of you has partners out there, you can definitely grab this and add it on your scrapbooks. 

By the way, the font face that I used for the messages is Prissy Frat Boy and on the Adobe photoshop file template, you just need to change the pictures there. You can also change the messages by simply editing them. Enjoy!

BG: Awww.. Colorful Polka

Yehey! I am back with this colorful Polka background design. I was kinda down a couple of weeks ago and I was frustrated because I only had published one post last month. Anyway, hope this month would be a great one for you and for me.

Enjoy this background design and use it on your scrapbook pages too! Anywhere you like as long as it's suits nicely.

BG: Cloudy

I know I have been busy lately and because of that, I haven't posted anything for the past weeks. I really feel guilty now that's why I thought of posting one before the month of July ends. I scanned my documents and tsadaa! I found one. This would be very suitable to what's happening now.

So when I checked my database, teehee.. I found this:

BG: Diamond Design

These background images for today are like royal carpets or royal wall papers. I can still recall that one Mr. Bean episode when he was being like a royal prince. Even Spongebob squarepants also had made his own royal wall papers and this looks exactly alike. So here is my royal inspired diamond background design. Hope you like them!
