Looking Back 2019

by Leave a Comment

2019, the year before the pandemic, was a pretty eventful year. It was the year we let go of Kendo Creative (a small cafe and art hub we ran in Cubao), the year I went on a solo trip to Taipei, the year we went on many mini road trips as a family! A few months ago, I finally finished putting together my 2019 Project Life album. This is my sixth "year in highlights" album to date and maybe my last for now. I have been documenting our years in this pocket page system since 2014 when Jo was but an itty bitty newborn! It has been a lot of fun to make and my family seems to always enjoy Read More

Micro Scrapbooking with the Pioneer DIY Planner

by Leave a Comment

One of my favorite things to do to unwind is memory keeping. I enjoy taking stock of things we've done as a family, places we've been to, our learning experiences and milestones. While I can't keep track of every single moment, I do my best to document what I can -- things I know my kids and I would love to remember a few years from now. I get a lot of questions from friends and online followers about how I'm able to religiously scrapbook and document family memories when I already have my hands full with responsibilities at home. I always say that it's something you choose to work for 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

Instax Memory

by Leave a Comment

I've always loved printing and collecting photos as keepsakes! I also enjoy documenting and organizing them into albums or scrapbooks. I bought my Instax Camera early this year and it has been such a fun tool for my journaling and memory-keeping. So I must say my current partnership with Fujifilm Instax is something I'm really excited about! Exactly one week ago, the Instax Team held its first ever Coffee & Crafts session in partnership with Henry's Cameras at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in Adriatico, Malate. Despite the heavy rain, crazy Friday night traffic and fire emergency a Read More

Captured & Documented: 2015

by Leave a Comment

I stayed home all weekend because the girls weren't feeling so well. They're doing okay now and I really think it was just the intense heat that had affected them badly. In between chores and tending to them, I decided to catch up on my scrapbooking and I finally finished documenting our 2015 life events. You see, I've decided not to do weeklies because I know well that it is something I am not going to be able to keep up with. I don't want scrapbooking to be a burden but an activity I delight in so I chose not to put myself under that pressure and stick to documenting occasions and Read More
