Where everything is handmade…
A few months ago, I bought a Traveler’s Notebook haul. If you’ve read the blog or watched the video, you’d probably know by now how much these notebooks meant to me. That’s why it deserves a whole spread in my journal. I love using other paper goodies in my journal spreads but this time, I …
Oh, boy! It’s been awhile since my last Journal With Me post. I’ve been journaling a lot but I’ve been doing it without filming. As much as I want to share my process, it also somehow takes a lot of time filming and editing. There are days when I feel, I just want to do …
Last February, my son, Nicolas celebrated his first birthday. I made a DIY Woodland theme party for a small and simple family gathering. I like how this journal turned out because I just used merely all the decors from the party. I wanted to add the other decors I used from the party but it …
Hello there! Let’s start this new year with a Journal With Me video. Sahin Designs has a new collection for this year called Hibernate and I’m using it for my best nine of 2019 photos. Every end of the year, I like posting the best nine of my photos. It’s like a digital memory keeping …
Hey there, friends! Here’s another journal spread I made for Sahin Designs new collection called, I Got My Wish. I truly enjoy making journal spreads for Sahin Designs as I’m reminded of the good things I have. Especially nowadays we’re experiencing earthquakes every now and then. This truly helps me feel less anxious. The collection’s …
I’m quite behind in posting my journal spreads already. Actually even most of my videos. I’m trying not to be so hard on myself but still hoping to be consistent at the same time. As I was doing this journal spread, I’m reminded of our beach trips when we used to be just us. I …
Sahin Designs has another collection. It’s called Day Of Thanks, an autumn themed. This was quite challenging for me since we don’t have autumn here in the Philippines nor thanksgiving. But this made me remember my very first autumn, thanksgiving and pumpkin patch in Vancouver few years ago. Now, I’m so glad we had to …
Earlier last week, I got a notification on my Instagram: @iam_artisan that I was tagged in a photo by Sahin Designs. I wasn’t sure what it was because I didn’t get any emails yet (apparently, it went to my spam). I’ve been applying for a creative team since early this year since I was really …
Hi friends. Yes, I’m still here… I haven’t been blogging, posting much on Instagram (except mostly our faces) nor playing with my craft materials or painting tools but I’m playing with something else… or a someone… a little human, that is! Yes, friends! That’s an ultrasound photo you’re seeing right there on my traveler’s notebook. …
Journaling on my traveler’s notebook is my way of keeping memories. I’m already on my second traveler’s notebook but it’s just recently that I decided to film it and share my process. Then few months ago, a friend of mine, Cham, introduced me the Junk Journal Makers PH. A page on Facebook about using junk …
Hi everyone. It’s New Year’s Eve here in the Philippines. Everyone’s probably preparing for tonight. And I’m preparing a video instead of food, lol. Anyway, I’m missing my family today. So, I thought, this Journal With Me video is just timely. Long distance with family is really difficult. But as long as I think we’re …
Hello, my dear friend. This is a backlog post for me. Since I became more active on my YouTube: April San Pedro, I find it difficult to blog, update my Instagram: @iam_artisan and on Pinterest simultaneously. Kudos to all those who are creating content consistently, because it is not easy. And it takes a lot …
Hello there… I’ve got another art journal to share with you, friends. This one is quite unique to all of the journals I’ve done because of the materials I used. I normally use acrylic and watercolor. Recently, gouache. But this time, I used highlighters. In my head, I’m saying, how weird is that? Yep! You …
I’m trying to aim 10 art journal spreads before this month ends. It’s pretty ambitious, I know. But they say, dream big, lol. So far, I’m on to my 3rd one and still, my spreads look scattered and just messy. For now though, I’m trying not to mind it and I just keep reminding myself …
Hello, hello there! First, don’t mind the title on the video, I mixed up the numbering in my studio vlogs. This is really no.12. Second, if you haven’t seen it yet, I’ve already posted this on my YouTube channel: April San Pedro. But let me share more about this here… Last January 25, 2020, Sharmane …
