G's mini-album

Hi everybody!

We were at my dear hubby's parents' house this past weekend, and I came across this mini album that I made for him. Since I only started blogging about my creations around 2007 or so, I thought I'd show it here. Sort of compare my style then to my style now.

Pardon the quality of the pictures. The lighting was poor and I didn't have much time to edit these photos.

I made this for G for his birthday in 2003-ish. It showcased the past year, our dates, and our friends/fam. As you can see, I loved my embellishments back then too! :)

Thanks for visiting!

Going Green!

Had tons of FUN doing this~! It was nice to get my hands on paint, old scrapbooking supplies, used jewelry, and kol laj art flakes!

The project was to recycle Prima containers, and I turned mine into gift boxes and storage for office supplies! But I ended up really liking them so I don't think I'll be giving those away!! Har har!

Pics from the GREAT!

Here are my favorite pics courtesy of Gene Higa. He is totally the BEST photographer, and was actually just rated one of the TOP 10 wedding photographers in the world by American Photo Magazine! Read more in his blog. I always wanted to say that Gene did our wedding pics, and now I can! He and his partner, Ann, are also the nicest people, totally made us and our fam/friends feel so much at ease!! Can't wait to scrap 'em:
