Good day all!
Dawn McVey has a new color challenge that is up and running! The Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #13, below are the colors ...

and here is the card I made:

I took the picture in two different backgrounds and I like both of them,

but I couldn't decide which one to use, that's why you see both of them here :)
You pick yours :), and thanks for stopping by to say hi!

Good morning Wednesday! ... hope you are all enjoying your day. Yesterday I cleaned but I mean really cleaned all my craft area and it felt so wonderful after a few days of being under very tight space. Now I am feeling the happy sense of slipping back into my happy and CLEAN craft space :)
The other day while browsing I went to the Cutting Cafe blog, and when I got saw this 3 Nesting Boxes set, I knew I had to have it. Too cute! Totally great for putting a gift.

These Nesting boxes fit perfectly inside one another (without the lid of the inner boxes). They also look great stacking on top of one another (as shown here).


Anyhow, enjoy my project for today and thanks for visiting!

Are you ready for some fun? As I told you before, I fell in love with the Pretty Petal Pocket template from Lauren. A few days ago one of my cousins gave birth to her first child, a baby girl named Laura, she is such a cute baby!! I bought her a pair of shoes, so tiny shoes :) but wait! THIS box was part of the gift.


Isn't it the cutest box for a gift? She liked it so much ...

Hope you liked it too.
Thank you so much for stop by ;) have a great day!!

Good Monday everyone!!
Yesterday one of my best friends called me because her boyfriend is leaving the country for a few months and she wants him to have a mini album with photos of some of their best moments. All papers here are from Bo Bunny (those were the cutest I had) ... this is what I came up with, she loved it!!

These are some of the inside pages ...






Here I used my What a Hoot new stamp set from Hero Arts.

And this is the mini book or album I made, hope you like it!
Have a great day and thanks for always commenting!! :)

Hola! muy buenas tardes a todas las personas que siguen mi blog, especialmente a aquellas que hablan y entienden el español, mi idioma nativo. Decidí hacer este post, no sé por qué en español, para contarles que hace un rato llegué de una de las tiendas de scrapbook más completas y siempre al último grito de la moda en cuanto a papeles, embelishments, etc. se refiere, les hablo de Memorias de Papel (y eso que no les detallo el excelente servicio al cliente que tienen -aqui no hay publicidad por si acaso eh). Alli me encontré con par de gentes que tenia tiempo no veía. Pues nos sentamos a hablar de muchas cosas, sí, porque aparte de uno comprar, a veces nos sentamos y comentamos de los trabajos, de la vida, de los hijos, etc. y aunque no se lo crean la pasa uno de lo mejor. Porque algo que tiene este hobbie es que inmediatemente encuentras a alguien que haga lo mismo que tu, ya se hacen panas de por vida, y eso me gusta mucho.
Bueno, pues eso era lo que les quería decir, espero que la pasen bien en su fin de semana. Y para que no se vayan en blanco, las dejo con unas fotos que tomé a algunos de los elementos que van a ser parte de unas invitaciones de baby shower que estoy haciendo.


Espero que las disfruten y les sirvan de inspiración.

Hello Saturday ... Yep! my template love fest continues here with a new and completely irresistible template designed by Lauren Meader for Papertrey Ink. Today our challenge was to use one of Lauren's templates and use the colors in this image,

Yeah! kind of challenge within a challenge!!
So here are some pictures of my project for today:

Let me tell you that I love all of Lauren's templates, they are so easy to make and look very elegant and clean. You can use them for any special gift or just for putting things! they look beautiful anyway. Plus they are inexpensive!!

I fell in love with this particular one, I'll make more projects using this template.

Are you in the mood of making your own project? there are two templates for free at PTI waiting for you, so there are no excuses for you to not participate. If you make yours please let us know by uploading it here.
Now for some fun...lots of fun ideas waiting for you...enjoy:

Good morning girls! what a busy week! I've been working on many things at the same time, but last night I took a little time to make this card for CPS #125,



enjoy it !!

Happy Challenge everyone!! --Yeah! today is Saturday ...
These are the pretty colors that inspired me to make my project.

My sneak peek photo (which I had no chance to send :(

I had SO much fun making this card, for the fact that I love buttons --I have tons of them :) and they make me happy-- and using them here was just fantastic.

Would you like to play along with us? then be sure to upload your creation to the challenge post on Lauren's blog. I love seeing what you all do each week! and if looking for more inspiration just take a look at what the rest of the design team did:

Hi everybody, hope you are having a great day! ... I have made a lot of cards in the past few days (for Father's Day which will be next July 25th. in the Dom.Rep.) and I have been working also with some orders from my clients (invitations)- pretty busy, ah?!! Anyway, I just wanted to show you these cards I made for Father's day:

I used my CriCut machine for the lifesaver and anchor, Life is a beach cartridge, love it :)

Don't you love this? Yeah! a new stamp set -"Guiding Light" from GinaK Designs.

For this boat I used one of my Sizzix die cuts.
I really hope you like them! Thanks for stopping by today and for your comments :), expect more father's cards tomorrow.
Have a nice day!

Happy Saturday pretty girls! Oh it's finally Saturday!! :), this means another challenge from our Lauren, today she brought these beautiful and inspiring colors:

I thought in many themes to make my card, but these colors together are really a challenge, believe me i know what i am saying :) After a lot thinking, this is "finally" what I was able to do with very short time:

Don't you love this giraffe? I do! again I used my newest stamp set Jungle Pals stamp set from Sassafras Lass, this is a "must have" stuff :) Okay, now that you've seen my card, here's a sneak peek of the projects made by the rest of the DT.

Hey all! Just poppin' by to say hi and let you all know I'm still around :). Things have been rather hectic with new projects coming up. I've had no time to sit and create or post and I've been missing it ... squeezing in a little time for that today. Here are just some of the things I made over the weekend ...

I used a template to make this little box, and FINALLY had a chance to use one of my newest stamp sets–this time the Jungle Pals stamp set from Sassafras Lass. Isn’t that elephant cute? I love it !!! :)

I also used my Bitty Baby Blessings stamp set from PTI for the sentiment.

I hope you all have a wonderful evening! See you all tomorrow ...

Happy "very late Monday" my friends out there!! I hope you've had a wonderful Independence Day, BBQ :) and fireworks!! Today I bring you a wedding card I made for an aunt of mine who called me desperately 'cause she needed one for a couple on their wedding day. I could say she really loved it by the way she smiled at me, that for sure made me feel good, "she is my favorite aunt". Here's the card ...

this is the sentiment inside:

and another photo ...

I hope you like it too!
That's it for me....hope you have had the best Monday ever :)

Hi girls, I really hope you are having a great day!! Can you believe that I made another Train card which can be used as invitation as well ? I am in a train mood lately :) and who blames me? my kiddos love trains ... who doesn't love them? they can be the perfect touch in a baby boy project! this little card is just one of my favorites, love the color combo.

I used my bug-machine to make this gorgeous project ... and the Mickey & Friends Shapes Cartridge.

This is another view of my card/invitation ...

Well my ladies, thank you so much for taking the time to stop by, have a great day! :)
Catch you on Monday with more projects ...

ChooChoo! there comes the train and it's saying Good Morning and thank you so much to all the warm and sweet comments you left in my previous post, they made feel very good!! Can you believe that "my musa" is back!!! :) Yes! last night while the the boys were watching Bedtime Stories, I stamp myself a little sunshine! I also challenged myself to use the navy color, it is not one of my favorites, but looks so "boyish" and i love the final result! take a look:


Isn't it gorgeous?
Well I hope you each enjoy today, Oh! and Happy July to everybody!!!
