and this layout is of our 2nd christmas together. it was the 2nd we've celebrated together since JP was born but it was the first one when JP can interact and socialize.

we were so excited that year in buying gifts. we got JP a car city. i can still remember how eager he was to open the huge package. moreso, when he found plenty of toy cars. oh boy.

this is an-almost finished 12x12 lift from the gatefold album [scrapjam]. i used the paper pack Marisa (who is so kind) gave me. these are kaiser-craft papers with a boys theme. i will still be including pictures of tiny JP during his first year. pictures of him learning to walk. his interactions with mommy and daddy. the milestones of his first year.

i found this bargain creating keepsakes magazine early last year and i fell in love with becky higgins. liked the sketch in her column because it works with multiple photos. she is very good with that set up, lots of photos in a single sketch. gave it a try too. this kind of sketch works well for events when you simply cannot stop snapping that camera shot after shot after shot.

and here is my take on the sketch.

i just love that pocket, i can include a bunch of photos on the event that i was scrapping.

and my gatefold album (which is my favorite because it is actually the first project i did of me and my ruben) and i also enjoyed doing it [the most].

i am really glad that Marisa decided to have the AC jam. i have learned a lot. thanks Marisa.

we had the Angeles City scrapjam on July 11 but it was only during my last week's days off that i had the chance to finish my 2-page layout, my gatefold album, melissa frances card and an additional layout from the boys paper pack Marisa gave me when she came over to the phils.

because we were assisting the other participants, yoyin, rome and i were not able to start our projects at the jam.
