charity: water

I live in BF Homes, Paranaque and we have a major water problem around here. But this isn't about me. It's about nations that have severe water problems, where millions of women and children have to walk hours each day to get water to drink from muddy ponds and rivers.

Watch this:

The story of charity: water - The 2009 September Campaign Trailer from charity: water on Vimeo.

When I saw this on Cathy Zielske's blog, I got curious and decided that I wanted to be a part of this humanitarianism campaign.

I know that our nation is plagued by poverty and similar problems. You can make a difference now! How about giving up that cup of yummy Starbucks coffee, even just for a day? :) or maybe just a piece of adhesive? That's not so bad, is it?

You can provide assistance through my campaign here.

Thanks! Here's to clean, potable water for everyone!

pages for Studio Azul using the June and July kits





Oh. In case you didn't know, the August kit is already here! Please check it out.

Since Tin hasn't posted copies of the LOs, here are a few sneaks of the pages I completed during our Tagaytay weekend.




Thanks so much! Off to enjoy the long weekend, I hope!

tickled pink!

that my little project was singled out by Jessica Acs along with a couple others :)

mock buffet

even though some of us were not able to join in on the fun and scrap alongside our talented local scrappers, I'm glad Tin organized a dry run for the PS Mods and the SA girls.




In between doing a site visit (scrap buffet venue), chatting, and of course, eating (there never seemed to be a shortage of food supply over at Tin 's place) *grin*, I was able to come up with a few pages:






Here are the pages everyone completed that day.
