2009 Project 365: Week 2 (Jan 5 - Jan 11)

2009 Project 365: Week 1 (Jan 5 - Jan 11), originally uploaded by cutieissa.

My first full week! =) And it's my first time to play with Photoshop Elements 7 too. I have been using PSE5 since 2007 and I must say PSE7 is way, way much cooler! It's almost like CS3 but very user-friendly. All my Project 365 digiscrapz are on my new "dedicated to P365" Flickr account.

To read my notes on the scraps, click on the photo. You would then be taken to its Flickr page. On top of the photo, click the "ALL SIZES" button and voila! You'll be able to read my notes. Not that you're required to read them, LOL ;-)

1 week to wedding day..

..and still so many LIL things to do!! =I I'm halfway done with our AVP (audio-visual presentation), still gotta add gift tags to our giveaway wines (finished sticking our customized wine labels), email Amore Musicians with our song choices, give Kent Photography our chosen prenuptial pics, talk to church florist, confirm our Palawan tours, finalize guest list and make table guest plan, etc, etc. I know brides should not dwell on the small details but I revel in it -- I just hope I won't run out of time!

Already, my relatives are telling me to relax and sleep so that I'll be radiant on October 8. However, my mind just refuses to cooperate! Back when I was reviewing for our board exam, I was asleep by 10-11pm -- but now, I'm up til 2-3am. Wahhh! Definitely not good for my skin! And no amount of makeup can hide dull, tired and old-looking skin =(

Anyway, here are some pictures of our food-tasting in Grand Regal Hotel a few days ago. The cream puffs (photo above) were sooo cute! Hehe! ^_^ The butter and choco moist cupcakes (flavor tasting for our wedding cake) are from Mam Joy of Cake Temptations. I looove their butter cupcakes!!! But Labsie wants the choco rocky road.. Hmm..

XiaXue's ultimate guide to PhotoShop!

XiaXue is one of my most favorite bloggers out there -- and her BIG love for the color pink only endeared her more to me! ^_^ And now, there's more reason to love her -- coz XiaXue unselfishly shared her PhotoShop editing secrets with her fans! Woohoo! Now, I can edit my pictures to perfection just like she does, teehee! =) If you're interested, watch her video tutorial below. Thanks so much XiaXue! PINK RuLEz!
