Another DIY Save-The-Date

Last week, I thought of doing another STD using Scrapblog.. I liked the last STD I did... but I felt that it's still not THE save-the-date for us.. you know what I mean??... Like it's nice and all, but it seems that something is still missing...

And then this......

Our pictures taken by Wally Gonzales

I SUPER DUPER LOVE IT!! It's just PERFECT for our wedding theme! And when you see our invites, you'll also know why...;) I'm also proud of the fact that I made this more or less from scratch..:) meaning I didn't use any of the free (already made) templates from Scrapblog, but just made use of their stickies and mixed them all up...:) I truly 101% heart this!:)

My Save-The-Date layout

Since I have been blogging a lot recently about our wedding preps and all in our WEDsite and my other blogspot.. and I have been intrigued by this digital scrapbooking.. I thought of practicing my "scrapbooking" skills by making our Save-the-Date cards!;)

I already posted my first try here. Not bad for a beginner, if I may say so myself! ahaha!! Then just last April 30, we had our first official prenup shoot with Wally Gonzales. Of course, having all these beautiful pictures from him inspired me to again create another STD.. so here it is:


Whatcha think?...;)

Maternity Shoot - Stacey Tan Gana-Bravo

It's been a looooong time since I've posted anything in this blog. Sorry about that.. Been really busy with all the wedding preps.. yeah, I know excuses, excuses.... ehehe!! But, I'll definitely try to post more often...:) I also might change the name of this blog site.. but until I've thought of it's new name, this will do for now..;) ehehe!

Anyway back to this post, this is our first ever maternity shoot. My sister's bestfriend Stacey is almost due at the time we had this. And it was also her birthday that day! Ahaha! So here is just a few of the shots I took:

Digital Scrapbooking

I've always been interested in scrapbooking.. especially when I saw my cousin's collection of stamps, and all the things she made with those... WOW!! I'm just DYING to learn it, and be able to create BEAUTIFUL layouts!.. But, I still don't have a lot of materials to work on with... and (I'm disappointed to learn) I'm not as creative as I thought, since I can't seem to make something nice with what I have...:( I also have a very limited budget, so can't really splurge on the materials at the moment...;)

So.... I'm SUPER thankful when I learned about digital scrapbooking!! ScrapBlog.com to be exact!:) not only am I able to make pages for FREE, but it's also soooo easy to do!:)

Here are just some of the first few pages I made from ScrapBlog:
