I played 3 challenges in 1 : MojoMonday Sketch 88, Color Combination Challenge ; this time: So Saffron, Bashful Blue and Pumpkin Pie and Our Creative Corner Challenge: Using a sentiment as a focal point. I made a cute baby card. This is for a friend from church who recently had a baby boy.

Hello my friends!! I hope you are having a great day. I am so sad I missed the new Verve release Party, but I played one of the Sketches posted on Julee's Blog. I am glad to say that I own several set from Verve, but one of my favorites is "Some bunny", so I decided to use this one and played the sketch. My card base is Kraft CS, My second panel is Pink Pirouette CS and Pink Patterns DP from PTI as well as the ribbon. The image is from VERVE and was stamped in Pretty in Pink Ink. The sentiment was stamped in Real Red. A lot of stitches around and Pink Rhinestones!!!

Hello my friends, I have a cute card for show today. I played the sketch challenge at Card Patterns and also the Friend Challenge at Fun-Frilled Blog. When I started making this card I didn't like it much, but then I changed my mind, it is super pretty!! I made it for a friend of mine who lives in NY and I haven't seen in more than 20 years!!! She is Peruvian too, super cool girl and one of my BFF. Lately we have been chatting online and remembering our time times at school and our crazy and silly adventures too, LOL.


Hello my friends, it's time to announce the theme for our next Tea Party. This time Susan is our hostess and she gave us a great piece as an "Inspiration", take the shape, the colors, the design, etc. Use your imagination. Next Wednesday I will post my creation and also the DT.

For my second card I used the sketch from CPS Systems Blog. My card is 5" x 5" square. The paper in this card is from Rhubarb Tart Collection Pack ( Memory Box Paper). The big rhinestones are from Target $ spot. I got more than 100!! for only a dollar. This rhinestones work great in big cards.
