"Jeans and Jewels" Kit and a Sampler Freebie

The first kit that I've ever made early this year was called "Jeans and Jewels" (from the Jurrasic period) which I have given as a freebie in fairydustprincess-magicmaker blog. I told myself that I will do a much improve kit of the same theme sometime this year...and so another "Jeans and Jewels" kit will be my last digiscrapping kit for 2008 and here it is.

"Denim for Dudes" Kit and a Sampler Freebie

Here's your first kit for December. I know I didn't do justice to the preview probably because I'm in a very difficult situation right now. But you will surely be delighted to see all the elements (which I wasn't able to show on the preview) once you start downloading. I thought I won't be able to finish this since the two button frames takes too much time to make as I manually put one button after another and I don't know how many buttons are there. I made a template for the jumper and I really love the outcome, I hope you love it too.

This kit goes well with "For My Guy" kit. You can use the belt and combine "Denim for Dudes" with the other elements and papers from that other kit if you want.

"The Magnificent 2008" QPs with a Twist and QP Freebies

The QP set for December will be of two parts. This will be composed of 24 QPs/12 spreads that is ideal for photobooks. Ten QPs of each part will be for members and the other two are given as freebie QPs for all.

Why did I call it "The Magnificent 2008"? Every year, I do layouts of each month's highlights. Last year, my title was "2007 in a Nutshell". That's the reason why, this set will have 12 spreads, one for each month. Anyway, if you are not going to use the set for compiling a year's worth of memories, you can still use it for other projects. This year, I did several photobooks as birthday and Christmas gifts. In fact, some of the pages here were inspired from those photobooks that I made.

I usually chronicle a person's life in the photobook. I scan their pictures from childhood to present, then group them as childhood days, school days, years at work/ministry, etc. And do you know what are the hardest part in making this project? It's grouping the pictures together and thinking of the entire photobook title. I'll give you sample titles of what I did: "The Chronicles of Narry" (A photobook for our dear Pastor Narry), "Vic...Through the Years" (This one is for my Father-in-Law); "A Rosy Life" (For my mother-in-law, her nickname is Rose, hence, the word "rosy" came to mind); "Life's Treasures" (for my Mom, it was supposed to be "My Heart's Treasures" because my Mom's name is "Corazon" which is translated as "heart" in spanish. I already have it printed when that title pop-out in my mind--too late to change--see, thinking of a title is really a difficult one); and "Journey" (for Pastor Luis).

In all my "QPs with a Twist Set", there's always a bonus QP (for front cover) for members which I never show in preview...it's supposed to be a surprise. But here, I'll just show it via my own photobook cover. This comes in QP and cluster border frame (paper removed so you can put your own choice of paper and add some more elements if you want).

I have here our 6th wedding anniversary and our trip to Ilocos photos which were this year's highlights in our lives.

Here's a sample of the inside pages. I chose the month of "August" to show-off my sample LO and you'll read in my journaling the reason why.

August 3 - (Opposite page, left). Showing of my new dress worn specifically for our lunch date to celebrate our wedding anniversary. (middle) It’s our 6th wedding anniversary and we're still happily married, LOL--oopppss, it's our ring fingers (with our wedding rings on) that you're seeing here. This was taken after we watched “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor” at The Globe Platinum Cinema at Gateway Plaza in Cubao, Quezon City.

August 16 - ((Opposite page, right). Finally, a dream come true. I was able to watch Lea Salonga in a musical play via Rodgers & Hammerstein's CINDERELLA at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.

August 30 - (above, from left to right) Mike and I enjoyed being official photographers (without pressure, LOL) during KM’s 7th birthday held at Rosewood Pointe’s Clubhaus. Charlo & Diwata were so happy for KM and for their new condo unit. And yes, I got to show-off my hand-me-down DSLR from DH.

So, you can now think about what project are you going to make for this latest QP set. I only make five spreads (10 pages) for my photobooks. So, if you're not going to use it to chronicle "2008", you can already start a complete photobook with this one without waiting for part 2. BTW, you also need to download the QP freebies to complete your set.

Cluster Border Freebie

Okay, this freebie sent me to panic. When I signed-in earlier today to post the CU Christmas ornament freebie, I saw in the comment that digifree accidentally had posted my Cluster Border 4 as a freebie...it's not. I didn't put in my post that it is a freebie. It's exclussively for magicmaker-scraps members. I know if some of you who saw that and drop by here will be disappointed so, I made these two cluster borders for you, just a few hours ago.

It's my first time to give away a cluster border as a freebie only because of that incident. If you happen to be here because of that cluster border, I'm sorry to say (again) that it's available for magicmaker-scraps members only but I hope you'll also like this freebie that I made for you. I do not intend to deceive anyone with a freebie when I actually didn't put that it's a freebie. It was just a mistake. Anyway, I also hope you'll leave some love when you download.

If you are a magicmaker-scraps member you can also download this one if you like to add this to your collection.

This Freebie is no longer available, you can buy the entire cluster borders along with this one at michelles-angels.com

Commercial-Use Christmas Ornaments Freebie

I joined this year's Christmas Around the World (CATW) organized by Kimberly Bartlett of Fishinmom Designs. I'm her CT. Anyway, we have a color pallete and there were more than a hundred designers who joined this time. I was afraid I would only replicate other's christmas ornament if I use commercial use products available online, so I just photographed and extracted my own ornaments. Here are the original items and the grayscaled files for your commercial use.

Thank you for your interest but this freebie is no longer available.

Cluster Borders Set 4

Here's Cluster Borders Set 4, your final cluster border for the this quarter. I have almost forgotten to post this. I have uploaded this set in 4shared the other day and I was planning to post it right away. I didn't know what happened that made me forgot about it.

Anyway, I'll start uploading the QP Sets tomorrow. I was supposed to upload them today, I don't know why I'm becoming so forgetful.

Look at my sample layout. I used one of the cluster borders and put a garden in the background. Yup, there's a variation in one of the cluster borders (just like the others in the past sets) with two cute fairies on it. So...enjoy!

"He's My Guy" KIt and a Sampler Freebie

Here's your last kit for November. It should have been done earlier if only the Teddy Bear was in our place here in Manila. We went home to the province last weekend and I got this teddy bear, photographed and extracted it for this kit. I just thought this kit will not be complete without that furry little guy, don't you think so? This is a huge kit. There are 24 leather frames (6 rectangles w/ stitches, 6 w/o stitches, 6 squares w/ stitches and 6 w/ stitches w/o stitches). I just can't figure-out which one to include whether the square ones or the rectangles, those with or those without. So I just decided to put them all here--though they are not shown in the preview--they are all in your downloads and a lot more. I also can't decide which of the two sets of tags to include here so you'll also have both sets too.

Anyway, if "Laces and Pearls" have oval and circle frames, you'll have squares and rectangles for your man. This is my first kit for boys/men and like me, I know you also badly need a kit for your guy. So...enjoy!

Here's a sampler for everyone, though these are just small parts of the kit, I hope some non-members will be able to use it your digi-scrapping projects.

How to Make a Calendar

Here's something that I posted in my other blog that you may find helpful in making your 2009 calendar for your personal as well as for your christimas gift and S4H projects. Last year, I made a calendar for me and my husband and have them ring binded like this:

See, I'm the model for January,LOL, as my birthday falls on this month.

With my cluster border calendar set, you bet, my 2009 calendar will look better. Now, what if you don't have a ring binder? I found this easy to make "a Bible calendar" in an old magazine (Woman's Day, January 5, 1999 issue) and it doesn't cost much to make this one. I just scanned it as that issue is not availble online. You can adjust the size according to your print size if you want (4x6, 5x7 or 8x10) Here it is:

Please visit their site at http://www.womansday.com/ as a way of giving thanks for sharing to us this great project.

Cluster Borders Set 3, Photo Cluster Border Calendar

Cluster Borders Set 3 is finally here. The Holiday Season is drawing near and I know some of you are preparing layouts for altered photo art projects to be given as gifts to your friends and loved-ones. In my case, when one of my nieces, Meg, saw the photo magnet of my other niece sitting on a mushroom (See photo cluster Set 1), she said she also wanted to sit on that mushroom like her cousin, Terri.

Meg has graced most of my fantasy and altered art layouts so much and she still wants some more, LOL, I told her, I still have to look for a suitable photo where she's also sitting in the same way. And she's so excited about it. Meanwhile when I finished this latest set (see Cluster Borders Set 3 preview below), I realized her 7th birthday photo goes well with one of the cluster borders. I added Snow White's seven dwarfs and voila! It looks great--and yes, there are mushrooms here too. How I wish I already have this cluster borders three years ago for her invitation.

.

Anyway, Cluster Borders Set 3 is more of a fantasy set, ideal for altered art photo projects--which you can also make into photo magnets (like the one I did for my nieces)

Now, speaking of unique gifts for the holiday season. With more than 12 cluster borders, I'm sure you can now make your own 2009 calendar to be given to others (you can make one for yourself as well). But I guess, you also prefer to have a ready one, so I already made a complete set for all of us. LOL. Actually, my father-in-law has been asking for a personalized calendar for two years now. Poor me, I always give him other gifts when all he asks is this. I made a calendar for my sister-in-law (which he saw) two years ago and my FIL loves it. Unfortunately, I still don't have a scanner during that time. It's easier to make one for my SIL because all her photos in that calendar was taken using a digital camera. Now, with a scanner and this calendar set, I have no more excuses. Papa will surely have his calendar this Christmas.

Anyway, here's your Photo Cluster Border 2009 calendar Set. I have also included a separate png file of the calendar template per month so you can use them in other calendar projects such as using the cluster border sets.

My First Book of Colors (QPs with a Twist) and a QP Freebie

So, here's the second QP set for October called "My First Book on Colors: I can Tell Colors" I love this one. I didn't know I love colors so much until I found myself looking at this QP set over and over again.

They say black and white are not colors but I have included them here since whenever we buy crayons they are always included in the box. Besides, pre-school teachers and parents also teach children to identify black and white. And yes, I guess, colors are not complete without them.

I don't know how you will fill-in the pictures but I guess it will be cute if your child's dress will match the color of the page, like what I did for my niece, LOL.

By the way, if you will notice on the preview, the upper right part of the QP have some space where you can place your own colored elements. You can also put there the crayons (which I used in the LO above) which is already included in the download. So here they are...

My First Book of Numbers (QPs with a Twist) and a QP Freebie

This is supposedly posted earlier but I'm having problems uploading at 4shared. It's already been three days since I was trying to upload the QP sets but it seems the only time 4shared is allowing me to upload without error is after midnight here--weird!

Adding insult to injury, my pc is experiencing some problem, it would automatically shut down. DH calls it "blue screen of death". He examined it and says there's already a problem with the motherboard. So, please bear with me if I won't be able to post for the next couple of days. I'll try to burn/back-up my files first so that I won't have any regret if something happens to my pc.

The other QP set is not yet uploaded, too bad as I would want that to go with this one. This one is "My First Book of Numbers", the other one is "My First Book of Colors" and there's also "My First Book of Shapes" for one of November's QP Set. I'll post them as soon as I'm able to upload them at 4shared. They are 12"x12" in size but I guess if you are going to make it into a photobook, 8"x8" is the best size (you can resize it, anyway) as the book will not be too big for a toddler/pre-schooler to hold.

With this set you can personalized your child's "First Book of Learning the Basics Series"--adding his/her own pictures on each page.
