While Gardening

Feeling the cold air this morning, feeling the coming of Christmas...

It is my routine every morning of going to market to buy food and grocery items to sell for my store... and then cook for lunch.

There is no sun in the afternoon because of the coming storm "Santi", and his target area is Central Luzon and that is where we are located...

While the sun is out nowhere, I had the time for gardening, cutting the branches of our mango tree, trimming my bonsai plants and grass. Whew!

I pictured a bird that was trap to our Mr. E sample shrub that I made last summer.

Maya Bird

It took us an hour to help her out of the shrub.

And now time for my card.

Bill and Cynthia's Invitation

My friend Cynthia asked me to do her an invitation for her house warming and at the same time for her daughter jasmine 13th birtday. And this is what I did for her.

I'm so thankful that she liked it. Yesterday, we finished at least 60 of this invitation. Ha ha ha that's plenty... her husband Bill said "where will I put these visitors when they come all at the same time?" whahaha!!!..... No worries! Their house flour area is 400 sq. mtr. and their total residential lot area is 1,000 sq. mtr. It was a dream house for Cynthia!

2 Sketches 4 You Laura's Sketch 36

Good afternoon! Today I made a card for the 2 Sketches 4 You. This is my first card joining a card challenge. I choosed 2S4Y because its challenges does not choose any particular stamps for a sketches given... for this card I used Winx Scrapbooking paper and a Family House stamp that I found in a Toys Store.

Thank you so much

I would like to thank Kim for accepting me as one of her friend. She is my first friend in this blog.

Today, me and my sister Myla went to SM Clark mall to buy her son Miguel for his first birthday party dress on October 17, 2009. And for my gift to Miguel, I bought him a Baby Jordan polo shirt in which on sale today... other than that I made him lots of giveaways---CHOCOLATES! for his kids visitors.. I will make atleast 80 bundles of chocolates :) ... for this I made tags using the Hero Arts Ink and Stamp Critters (My first owned stamp sets) which my friend Cynthia bought it for me when she went to Hongkong... (Hero Arts Stamps are also available here in the Philippines at Memory Lane Store). I asked her to buy me some Penny Black stamps, since they are so expensive, instead she bought me Hero Arts.. but that's ok! I had fun stamping, coloring and cutting tags.. with my daughter Joy and housekeeper Welcy. And here are the finished products.

I will still be doing 40+ more giveaways for tomorrow.
