Day Off...What a perfect day!!!

It was my Birthday yesterday 18th of August...which I worked all day.... so I decided to have a "Day off " today...

(Why not...) I think it's fair to treat myself even just once in a year... isn't it?.
I won't mention how old I am....as I hate to get older (laugh;;;)

My Daughter Khat made me a card...she's so sweet....oppps... I will show the photo soon... and My husband gave me $$$ for my scrapbooking shopping.... which I requested... instead of giving me pressies.... (laugh;)...

Thanks to Maria and Margaret for the Chockie pressies... (I love the Dark Chocolate-can't say no to that)...and Garry My boss in Joining us (lunch at Arco).

I received sms' from my 2 fav sisters back home (philippines) Ate Agnes and Ate tess... missed you both.

My niece Sheilla... Thanks!!!...you still remember my Birthday..
My Best friend -Dories- thanks for the lovely email..

and lastly to my lovely friends here:... Espie,Petit and Lyn... thanks a bunch :)
You all made my day so special ...

Today :

khat got grumpy this morning as she has school and she can't come with us.. she gives me headaches in the morning... My blood pressure went up....just convincing her to go to school. (grrrr...)

First Me and Lito (my husband) went to Pancake Parlour for Breckie... I love the Traditional Breakfast- Pancake,bacon and eggs with strong cappucino.... really love it!!!!. Lito easily forgot about his colesterol diet.. (laugh::)

Sorry don't have photos at Pancake Parlour as I forgot to bring my SLR camera. (ggrrrr..)

Then we went back home to get it ... and decided to go to City... first... we plan to catch train but -we have no luck in getting parking at oakleigh train station...so we end up driving...

In city.... Parking is too expensive.... ($45.00 for 2 hours).... wow...
so we just went to Casino parking and ended up free...(long story)...

The Weather was perfect... it's a bit windy but it's sunny and 19 degrees...
Went to the Yarra... in the park...



Lucky I wore my old comfortable shoes... as we walked... walked and walked...

and Lito complaining about his foot.... again.... I think it's a sign of getting old... (laugh:)




This was a perfect day for me... no kids.... just me and Lito... we have a chance to go to the park - sit -relax.... (can't ask for anything more...)

and it's been a while since I have got a chance to have my photos taken.
so Lito took more photos of me.... can't wait to scrap them.








Me... having a great time...




This is Me... again..



And my Husband "Lito"....





We don't have photos together... we just take turns with the camera... :)


After the City... we went to Chadstone ...

we always go to Borders...to read...read and read Magazines and books. It's cheaper than going around the shops... (laugh;;))..






We always buy "Strong Cappucino- no sugar"... yummmm...






This is my Favourite part... Reading and browsing different kinds of Scrapbooking Magazine.

where I get my scrap ideas... :)



Opppsss... now Lito's phone was ringing and it's Khat.... now we need to pick her up at the Library... now my Perfect day will end... and another working day tomorrow...
well... at least I had 1 day off... which I did enjoyed it... I think I will do it again next year (laugh::)...

JB Calendar Mini Album

"JENNI BOWLIN CALENDAR MINI ALBUM"

When I saw this Calendar pack from Scraptacular, I knew I can make a mini Album out of it...
I have covered the front and embellish with my left over papers and embellishments... you should be creative when creating this kind of album...
you can put as many embellishments as you like...

For the front cover... I have used the following:

-Prima flower- which is my Favourite... you can get 2 pcs in a pack.
-Collections Mini chipboard butterfly with kaiser pearls
-Used my fiscars scallop punch -black bazzill cardstock
-Hambly white frame transparency
-Technique tuesday clear stamp " I just Love you" which I embossed.
-alpha -Pink Paislee
- and lots of layered pattern papers.




This is a bit thicker than normal mini album as I have put lots of layered papers and embellishments.


I have covered the bottom of February Calendar to add interest which can also use for space in journalling.


I have Highlight the date that was important to me... like the 18th of August which was my Birthday!!!.



I did not forget to include my Scraproom of course.




Lito's Birthday "October" and put some mini photos of him.





Khat's birthday "November" and embellish with chipboard Birds from "collections".
I have used stampin up punch - blue cardstock-.




Isn't she lovely....

Love this page...
Used:
Maya road chipboard house and tree which I have covered with pattern paper.






Used Hambly transpapency- which add texture to pages.






And this is my Family... :)







I love creating Mini Albums... sometimes I prefer to create from scratch than buy premade one.
