Scrapbook Layout Idea: The Kissing Cockatoo

When we were in Manila zoo last September, we came upon a small stall where friendly birds were staying. They call their part Angry Birds inspired from the famous angry bird game however, those birds were not angry though, instead they are the friendliest birds I met so far. And what so cute  about them was that they kiss!

Look at our faces in the pictures! We are definitely happy by the time the white Cockatoo kissed each of us. My mom wouldn't stop laughing too! And so I thought of making a scrapbook photo for us then with our kissing Cockatoo.

Scrapbook Layout Idea: Jesil + Bambie

Their special day was unforgettable, the function hall became a mystic place not just for the couple but also for every one who witnessed their wedding day. I, personally loved their theme, Country Side inspired by where Jesil come from, in Bukidnon. He grew as a country boy and left it for Luzon for his calling. They call their wedding a Blessing - they never thought they could get this type of wedding with so little budget in hand. Bambi told me the mason glasses were not bought but were just giveaways from their family friends and relatives. She herself spent days and months of cleaning them, brushing with steel brush so it would look brand new. I never thought those were simply mayo bottles! How resourceful they were!

The Love story - He likes her, she ignores him. He courted her, she left for Thailand. He left for Visayas, she started liking him. He pursued her, she started praying. He proposed and she said YES!

Scrapbook Layout Idea: Camera No Shy Baby

I miss my niece, I just went home a couple of days ago for my brothers' despidida party. Whenever I go home all I do there is to play with my witty niece. She has been very bubbly these days, she sings and dances whenever she hears lively tunes and music. She had memorized the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star song, she can't pronounce the words well yet but she hums it with the almost right words.

She is really really amazing, she talks to us like she is one big girl already. She also consider other children as babies, whenever we would ask her if she want to take a ride on some riding games, she would say no, it's all for the babies then we will laugh our heart out.

And of course, she never says no with the camera. If we would say smile, she would never fail us. She knows how to do a wacky pose as well. So this scrapbook lay out is out for free.

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:

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.

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. 

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: 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!

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: 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:
