Cowboy by Laura Pitman @ Divine Digital

This you have to check out...a cowboy kit to fit your lovely little boy's scrap pages! Got to play ranch and herding with Laura Pitman's Cowboy kit, available at Divine Digital, this week.
I have to say, I had a wonderful time playing with this kit! I love the colors, mainly in the blues. I also enjoyed using the frames, ribbons and buttons! My favorites were the kit and the photo frame clusterings!

Wet Fall but Toasty with Feelin Fall by Shabby Scrap Designs (Deanna Patterson)

Due to Typhoon Ondoy, it was a full week with no internet connection for about two weeks! It was really trying. Got too many things to do and worry about!
Hay...good thing, I got to finish a few works and posted what I need via Dad's internet connection. :P
Oh, plus there's another rain coming over by Friday.

Fall is surely here though it's a really wet wet fall over here in Manila especially with seemingly "never-ending" typhoons visiting us. :P
I did get to be warm and toasty at home scrapping traditionally and digitally. Here's a nice kit I played with. It's by Shabby Scrap Designs (Deanna Patterson) called Feelin Fall. Here are the links: the paper and the elements.

Here's how I used this kit.

I'm in Butterfly Crafts' Design Team!!!

News time ~ Another amazing news!
I got into Butterfly Craft's Challenge Design Team!!!! More details are here.
So excited to work with these wonderful ladies and play along the inspirational challenges. You can join us here.

For the first challenge (Challange 21), we had to scrap a life changing moment for us. Check it out here.

For the challenge, I created using Grungy Geometry by JW-DigiScraps (Janice Ward), available at DivineDigitals.com.

Product Review:
I love the embellishments and the papers were very cool! It's a fun fun kit with main colors of reds and blues and greens (primary colors) that was neuralized by the browns in the background.
Overall, a fun kit that can be used for any scrap topics/themes you would like.
