DBSL: Dreams of Spring + Freebie

I must admit I couldn't relate to all of you who are enjoying the Spring season because we don't have such in my country. But, this spring-themed kit from Designs by Snowlady is just wonderful because I can definitely use it  in many of my layouts! It has all the fun elements you'll need when creating your happy memories under the sun.

That's my niece walking around her grandparents' garden.

I also made a desktop wallpaper calendar for April, which I made as a freebie.

June 2012 Desktop Calendar Freebie

I decided to make my own desktop calendar this month. But I feel so sorry to have forgotten some PS tricks that I used to do when I digiscrap. I blame it on myself for not practicing them for a while. But I remember making some notes about them and keeping bookmarks so I will have to check them out when I get the chance. Anyhow, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Thanks to the pretty mini kit I used, and the lovely alpha too!

If you like it, you can get it for free. Just click the image above. All you need is a Google or Gmail account. Sign in, then click the File tab and download.

May 2012 Desktop Calendar

Hello to you and hello to the merry month of May! I kind of got carried away so I just had the chance to update. Let me show you my pick for this month's desktop calendar freebie.



Thank you, Penny Springmann for this pretty freebie! If you want to grab it, head on over to her blog.

I also created my own since it's been a while since I scrapped. Here's how it turned out.

Would you like me to share it? Just let me know... And of course, I would like to thank the Divine Digital Designers for their remarkably huge collab kit, which I used in this desktop calendar (except for the Pirate Gold Alpha from Julie. It is.).



You can visit My Scrapbook Art Magazine if you also want to grab this artful kit.

April 2012 Desktop Calendar

Before the month of April passes by, let me share with you at least my desktop calendar. Val and I have been away for too long without an internet connection, thus the long overdue post! Anyway, here's a lovely one from shabby princess and the shabby shoppe team.



The photo I inserted was taken quite recently.. the day we arrived back here in Cebu. It's good to be back!

March 2012 Desktop Calendar

I can already feel the summer heat, especially at night. These days, I often think about going to the beach, and it's only March! That's why I've chosen a summer bright desktop calendar for this month.



The photos I chose for this calendar were taken during our trip to Logos Hope, the largest floating "book fair" in the world!

Thanks to Meg for this lovely desktop calendar. If you want to grab this freebie, check out her blog at Wild Dandelion Designs.

February 2012 Desktop Calendar

I found the perfect desktop calendar wallpaper for our most recent photo!



Val and I were lounging after a long day of serving and entertaining guests during the annual patronal fiesta in my mom's hometown. I guess, you can tell we were both tired... but definitely happy!

Thanks to Trixie Scraps Designs for this lovely freebie. If you wish to grab it too, check out her blog.

January 2012 Desktop Calendar

Hi!!! I know I've been MIA for a while and have been lazy when it comes to digital scrapbooking. Sadly, I haven't completed my 365 project last year. However, I'll just keep working on it whenever I have time to spare. So, even if I was away, I still managed to change my desktop calendar for the past few months. I just failed to share them with you. Here's what I had since September 2011.

That photo of me and Val were taken in the airport, I think. Yeah, we've been traveling a lot. Actually, just between Iloilo and Cebu. The cute calendar is from TheShabbyShoppe.com.

Just had the right pic to match the halloweenish desktop calendar by Leelou Blogs. It was a fun halloween eve at the beach with friends! 

August 2011 Desktop Calendar

Before Val and I go for another vacation where there will be no Internet, let me share with you our desktop calendar this month of August.

The photos were taken at BE Resorts Mactan. We were supposed to go to the Lapu-Lapu Shrine, but we got past it without knowing. So we stopped in front of BE Resorts, and instead of heading straight back to the shrine, we decided to have a look-see of the place. Here's a couple of pictures that I took. 

July 2011 Desktop Calendar

Just a quick post today! I'm sharing with you my lovely July desktop calendar by Manu Designs.



The photo I inserted here was taken in Ave Maria Islet in Guimaras, where we went camping last summer with Val's friends. I loved how Val and I fit under the umbrella. It looks like we're sharing it. Thanks to Zarrah for taking this photo. We love it!

Anyway, if you want to grab this cool desktop calendar, just drop by Manuela Zimmerman's blog.

Have a great weekend!

 

Well and Back!

Yey, I'm back! It's been a while, huh? I kind of got messed up when Val and I went to Iloilo for a supposedly less-than-a-week vacation. I was hospitalized unexpectedly due to stomach pain, LBM and vomiting. We suspected I had amoebiasis because of the seafoods we had the previous night. But my lab tests were negative. Nevertheless, they gave me Metronidazole, an anti- bacterial/protozoan kind of drug. It worked and after a couple of days, I was out. But I was really stressed out for a few more days, even when we're already back here in Cebu. All of that is over now though. I just have to be more careful with what I eat. I read probiotics also helps in preventing stomach problems, so yeah, I drink Yakult everyday. LOL!

There's simply a lot of things that I need to catch up on. I, of course, will do my best until our next vacation in May. I hope all will be well then. For now, let me share with you my April 2011 desktop calendar by Adori Graphics.



I had to re-use the above photo due to lack of any recent pictures of me and Val. Anyway, I think the calendar is really gorgeous. If you like it too, you can grab it for free at Adorible Digital Designs.

Fifteen more days 'til Christmas. The weather is rainy and colder, but it doesn't dampen the spirit of the people. The lights are on and sparkling every night. The kids are everywhere singing Christmas carols. Everyone is shopping for gifts. What a wonderful time of the year! We can't wait to be home with our family and share the good cheer. I hope everyone is merry, as well.
