Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a great day with all the ones you love. I had a great today with my lovely husband and daughter.

We wen to to the theatre and watched "Marley & Me", cute movie with a very sad ending, then we went to Applebees for dinner and then we went to Cold Stone Creamery for yummy Ice Cream!!! Becca was so happy, my little girl enjoyed the day very much. She was so tired when we came back home that she took a nap ( I told her only 30 minutes, but it was 1 hr 20 minutes)

Last night DH and I went to our church for a Valentine Dinner. We had a great time, it is kind of weird to go somewhere just us, my good friend and neighbor Nicole was the babysitter, Thanks so much Nicole!!!!

Now I want to show you few cards I have made:

Happy Valentine's Day: I made a bunch of this card for the Homeschool Valentine's Gathering. All the kids that they are HS had a great time, they received a package with goodies and cards from all the HS families, this was my card:

These 2 cards are the ones I made for our Church Valentine's Dinner. Out theme was everything French, so I came up with these ideas:

Hope you like them and enjoy your day!!!

Have a great weekend.

PTI Color Challenge

It's in the bag

Hello my friends, a very late post, but I want to show you what I created today!! This is something really new for me and I hope you like it.
Today, checking some blogs I found a challenge on Nicoles's blog from PaperTrey Ink. The challenge was to create a bag, any kind, but a bag, My DD told me several times she wanted a new purse (that she really needed one, hey she is only 4, LOL) so I decided to create a new purse for her using my new stamps, how cool is that!!!
For my project I used my Cookie Plate #1: Botanicals from smARTworks.
I stamped the flower image 3 times, once with Read Red Ink and twice with Embossing Pad and then I added some Red Embossing Powder, it melted really good without causing any damage to the fabric. Then I stamped the butterflies twice with Gold Embossing powder.

Do you like it???? Please let me know what do you think about this little purse. My little daughter is so happy!!! Can you see her happy face?!?!

Thanks for stopping by!!
Have a great day.
