All Good Kids

by Leave a Comment

Last Friday night in Cubao Expo, Nobody Clothing launched their collaboration with our daughters, Summer & Emma. It was part of their collection titled "All Good Things" and its ultimate message is the appreciation of "the simple and rare occasions that make a marked difference in our lives: The end of a long journey, perfect opportunities, shared victory, a beautiful day, seeing shooting stars..." The idea to involve the girls came out of this desire to just do something purely fun and different. It was not intentional, but a clear contrast came out of the girls' drawings, Read More

Christmas To Remember

by Leave a Comment

It's 26 days before Christmas! I hope you feel it cause I do! And I'm loving the cool December breeze we get more often these nights. As we all prepare for the holidays and all the avid memory keepers get ready to document Christmas, I thought it's the perfect time to share my December Daily album from last year. Here are some photos of my favorite pages and I've included a flip through video of the whole album at the bottom of this post. The kids and I had a lovely time looking through these pages again as I was preparing for this post and it definitely puts me in the right Christmas-sy Read More

Summer & Emma Get On The Sticker Business

by 2 Comments

My girls and I love stickers! I keep my own stash but I also have a bunch which I let them use when we're scrapbooking together or making greeting cards for friends. We also share a fondness for sticker-bombing our stuff, like bags, boxes and notebooks! They can't stick stickers all over our house but they can inside their closet door, so that's been sticker-bombed too! And because we love stickers so much, we did a little collaboration recently and created sticker sets using their own designs! First, I made them draw on paper. They could draw anything they liked as long as it was big Read More

A Little Bit Of Everything

by Leave a Comment

So the last month that I had not been blogging has been quite eventful and very memorable. I have been learning a lot about pacing myself and designing my own breaks. I have also been enjoying being busy — which is not always the case, so I'm both surprised and thankful. I think I'm enjoying myself because I find I'm working with  people I love to work with and doing things I love to do. Hard not to have a good amount of fun even if work is tough and trying. So let me give you a quick rundown of what's been keeping me and Kayo occupied lately as well as some fun things we have been up Read More

Sharing Summer Memories

by 2 Comments

On a cold, rainy day, I think the next best thing to reading a book with a cup of tea (or coffee!) is receiving and reading heartfelt letters from pen pals. It's been months since I organized the Summer Mail Swap but I recently read through all of them and how they made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The theme of the swap was "Best of Summer 2017" and we all shared with each other through words, pictures and artwork our favorite summer experiences. The stories shared were varied — from out of town trips to making art projects at home, from finally watching their favorite band perform Read More

An Open Art Space

by 1 Comment

Our little shop at Cubao Expo, Kendo Creative, has grown and changed a lot since we opened more than a year and a half ago. And I'm happy to say that the way it has changed and evolved is pretty much how we envisioned this place to be from the very start. It makes me so thankful and excited to be part of it and witness it all. Last summer, we were given the opportunity to expand and double our original size as we took over the space right behind us. It wasn't exactly something we asked for or planned but it sort of just fell on our lap and was an offer we knew we had to take. Turns out, Read More
