Spooky Nights

Happy Saturday friends! Oh how wonderful it is to sleep through the night with just the fresh cold breeze of Baguio to keep us cool and wake up to the sing-song chirping of the birds outside. These are just some of the simple luxuries a city girl like me wouldn't mind getting used to everyday.

For those of you who have not been to this side of the world, Baguio City is the summer capital of the Philippines. To our family, however, it is home away from home. Our house here is the one place where the whole clan can come together at one time to relax, unwind and just be happy.

Anyway, before I completely get lost in this enchanting place, I thought I'd share with you Mr. Bony Bones here dancing his way to some mayhem and mischief on Hallow's Eve.


He is the main character in these funky slider cards I concocted.


These black ravens and freaky tombstone keep him company inside.


Spooktacular!!!


Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Glittered Guitar

Hello friends! Thought I'd share with you today how I made the cover of the birthday scrapbook of Toni. In keeping with the Hannah Montana theme of the party I decided to go down the glittery path. As everyone knows Hannah is a rocker chick therefore a guitar is never far away from her.

Impressive? Well, I can't take all the credit. My very artistic daughter was the one responsible for drawing the guitar which I traced on a piece of cardboard I saw lying around the house and cut it with my SU! exacto knife.

Afterwards I colored the guitar purple with my marker.

I then took my Tombow and used the broad tip to spread glue on the colored side. Next, I sprinkled pearly white glitter all over the top of the cutout making sure to cover all the space.

I did the same thing with the different size stars I made, but this time I used purple, pink, silver & gold glitter.

When all the components were ready for assembling I proceeded to put them together. Once I found the perfect layout I again grabbed my ever reliable Tombow glue and stuck each piece on the front cover of the 8 in. x 11 in. scrapbook.

Now, how cool is that!!!
