"Lovely Snowy" Kit and a Sampler Freebie

It's been a while. I'm out of the country right now and it's really a blessing to have this kit up. After a few weeks of adjustment in weather, time zone, and routine...I'm so glad, I'm back. Anyway, here's the last series for the princesses kit. You already have Cinderella (Cinder Weds) and Sleeping Beauty (Aurora in Love); finally, Snow White (Lovely Snowy) is here.

I think, Snow White is lovely here, but can you believe, DH said that I made an ugly Snow White--she's so pale, LOL. Of course, I made her pale to make her complexion as white as snow--that's why she's called Snow White, right? I usually take my husband's criticism in my work so seriously but this time, I want to keep my Snowy in this kit (besides, my "layered" Snowy was left in the Philippines).

This kit has 65 elements and 25 papers. There are elements that are not shown in the preview.

I made two QPs from this kit and you can grab it in my other blog at fairydustprincess-magicmaker .

Download the QPs at fairydustprincess-magicmaker

I also made a sampler for everyone. I hope somebody will be able to use the sampler even if it's just a few papers and elements.

If you like the kit but you don't want to be a member, Lovely Snowy is also available at michelles-angels.com/ along with my other kits. Also, since my Dad would have been 70 years old this month (March 14) if he's still alive, so I'm having a 70% off sale at michelles-angels.com/ until March 31.

"Aurora in Love" Kit and a Sampler Freebie

I'm back with another kit, If you have read my other blog (fairydustprincess-magicmaker ) you probably know that I have some sort of an issue with 4shared. I'm slowly migrating my freebie files to the free account and the membership kits/files in a paid account so that you'll enjoy an ads-free and direct download. However, that would resume next month. My bandwidth allocation has exceeded since there were so many downloads for my freebies that used up my paid account features. I thought I would not be able to upload this kit until next month, I emailed 4shared and they replied that I can still upload my files and you can still download. However, it's back to the usual (with ads and with waiting time).

Anyway, it's my second consecutive valentine without my husband by my side. He's in Russia right now; last year he was in Qatar. So, "Aurora in Love" is my second set of Fairytale Princesses (Cinder Weds is the first). It also goes well with Cinder's Wish Papers and Elements. I was supposed to include a sleeping Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) but I guess, she won't be in-love if she's asleep so I have to wake her up because it's valentines day, LOL.

I hope you like this one. I had a great time making the oval frame. It's 10 inches tall with lovely roses in it.

Oppps...By the way, I have an add-on for Cinder Weds, which is included in this "Aurora in Love Folder). So, if you see the download file with the "Cinder Weds Add on" just include that in your download and just transer the file to where it should belong.

I didn't make a sampler freebie for "Cinder Weds" but I do have one for this kit. This kit will also be available at michelles-angels shop shop. So, if you don't want to be a member of magicmaker-scraps and you just want this kit, go ahead and get it there.

Anything Goes Commercial Use Kit and Altered photo background/cluster border freebie

Hurray! It's my birthday today and you're the one you'll get the gifts, LOL. Yup, I have a kit for you (magicmaker-scraps members) and a magical background/cluster border for everybody.

Since I'm 35 now, I have here 35 different kinds of commercial use items that I have photographed and extracted, it has no theme or whatsoever...that's why it's called "Anything Goes". I have already used some of the items here before in my QPs with a Twist, now you can have them as individual/unmerged files. I hope you'll be able to use one or two of them in your kits or layouts.

Members Download here

Now, for the freebie. Last week, I tried to make a background as I was thinking of printing a shirt with my nieces' photos on them and give the shirts to them. It seems like these T-shirts are very "in" nowadays.

Anyway, here are some of my sample layouts, as you can see my fairies that I have given as freebies in my other blog at fairydustprincess-magicmaker is in the LO. You can get those fairies there. My nieces were still small in this altered art. This was taken ten years ago.

Here's another rendition, this time it's a more recent photo. Yes, the little girl on the left (above) has already grown up and this is one of her latest photos.

I really love this background but I was thinking if you would want to put your own background into it. Or how about changing it's orientation (from landscape to portrait). to solve that, I made it into a cluster border and voila, I have another sample LO.

It's our wedding photo with one of the scenic pictures that Mike has photographed. Did I tell you my DH is a hobbyist photographer? The wordart is from dittersfreedoodles.

By the way, the width of the border is ten inches, so you may want to resize it to eight inches (for 8x10) or five or seven inches (for 5x7) prints.

Cinder's Wish, Cinder's Dream, and My Little Prince Kit

I don't know if there are still among you (magicmaker-scraps members) who haven't downloaded these three fairytale kits that I have given away as a freebie at fairydustprincess-magicmaker blog. "Cinder's Dream" had more than 1,500 downloads when I removed the download link. Then, somebody has re-uploaded it at 4shared and I was surprise that it still has several downloads even if I wasn't the one who uploaded it (somebody has pirated my stuff...grrrr...)

Now, I'm giving the link back but only to magicmaker-scraps members. I love making kits and QPs but I realized it is better to give them exclussively to magicmaker-scraps members to avoid piracy...so far my members are all behaved. Thank God.

Anyway, here are the three kits.

Latrize Bragbook Set and Freebies

Last Christmas, I decided to make personalize bragbooks (bind in spirals) for my nieces...which I wasn't able to print/give because of what happened to me.

I have so many pictures of one of my nieces named Latrize in different get-ups. Indeed she looks like a doll in different costumes. Some were taken by me and other were sent to me by her Mom thru email. It was her ballet and Hawaiian/Hula recital that inspired me to make these bragbook layouts/bragbook QPs. Here are samples of the layouts I've done with Latrize. As you can see in some pictures she's still so small. I actually made more than ten bragbook pages for her. And I guess, I will also give away the other pages later...as the other ones are holiday-themed bragbook (Christmas, etc).

I originally made them in "landscape" orientation. But, I don't want to cut her feet as she's doing her ballet and Hawaiian dance, so I transformed everything into "portrait" and you'll get both orientation.

Girls love to dress-up and in other countries, they have halloween and I see in different blogs how cute in the little girls are in their costumes. Since we don't have halloween here, I'm glad Latrize has so many photos where she's wearing costume for their school program and recitals. She even have a photo where she's in mermaid attire.

Anyway, most of you who are members of magicmaker-scraps are grandmothers, so I guess this will be perfect to have one page for all your grandkids...don't forget to put their names and birthdates on the pages so that you'll always remember to greet them "happy birthday"--there's enough space at the bottom of the frame so you can use your chosen alpha set/fonts for their names. You can bind them together and bring them everywhere to brag to your friends, LOL. I'll try to look at my files for some boy gumdrop tubes so that your little boys will also have pages in your bragbook too.

I do not know what to call this bragbook set, so I just called it Latrize, named after my niece.

Members, kindly download the the freebies both here and at fairydustprincess-magicmaker as they are not included in your download files.

This bragbook set is now available at michelles-angels.com

"The Magnificent 2008 Part 2" QPs with a Twist and QP Freebies

Finally, the second part of the "The Magnificent 2008" is here...though it's already 2009, LOL. Thank you for your patience. I really tried to finish it before the year ends but I really couldn't do it.

Last December, I emailed you (magicmaker-scraps members) about my condition and most of you have sent me good wishes. In fact, one of you (I hope Margaret wouldn't mind if I mention her name--how very sweet of her to do that) even sent me an LO/card with my picture in it using items that I have designed. I'm so deeply touched with her gesture and I always look at that LO whenever I'm sad... Sad? It's because the reason for my happiness at that moment has gone too soon.

My friend Lynette has already blogged about it, you can visit her blog at lynettesphotoart as she tells what happened to me. I still have to make my account on this matter--I have to do my obligation to you first as I'm already behind, LOL. Now, that we're done for 2008 sets (opppsss...I didn't forget "My First Book of Shapes"--you'll have it soon), I can now work on writing my testimony. As magicmaker-scraps members, you know that as much as possible I wanted to keep this matter in private that's why I just email you instead of posting it here. Though I experienced some loss, I am still an unworthy recipient of God's miracle. I'll be making an account of God's work in my life...and blog about it! As I was reading Lynette's blog awhile ago, I was convicted that this event in my life must not be kept in secret anymore...it must be told so that His name may be glorified. Lynette was able to write everything so well so I will just add some details about what happened.

Anyway, enjoy the "The Magnificent 2008 Part 2." I really had a great time doing this set.

Now, the freebie QPs are very special. They were made using most of Lynette's stuffs (which you can also download) in her blog at lynettesphotoart. They are for personal and church used only but I have used those items with her permission. This is my way of thanking her for praying for me and by being a channel to which God may pour His blessing and miracle on me.

"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.

Of course, there's sampler freebie for everyone. Here it is. Enjoy!

Sorry this freebie is no longer available

"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.

Here's the sampler freebie for everyone. And yes, please do leave some love as you download.

"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!
