A Princess Card.

Hello my friends! I was planning to post my daughter's card yesterday, but my Saturday hours were too short, I think I need 30 hour-day everyday, LOL. Anyway, here is her card based on M's Sketch #4 She stamped the image herself, I helped her using the Nestabilities (I see my daughter in the near future, using all my stuff!! She pretty much knows ho to use my tools, she really wants to make Heat embossing cards, SOS!!!, LOL)

To be honest, I really enjoy looking at her being creative (her way), stamping, coloring, cutting, it is a lot of fun!! We enjoy our time together creating and laughing.

Inside her card: She drew another castle and cut a Cinderella from her own PP.

Hope you like her card. She would love to hear your comments. That makes her really happy.

smARTworks Cookie Challenge: Fannie Mae

Hello again my friends. It is time to unveil another smARTworks Cookie Challenge. Few weeks ago Susan sent the DT member Fannie Mae set to work with. As soon as I saw the set my brain designed a Vintage card.
For my card I started with a piece of Cream-Ivory CS for my card base, followed by a piece of Purely pomegranate CS and some Making Memories PP "Lg. Floral Rouge Paperie" , all borders were sponged with Purely Pomegranate Ink. The image "Fannie Mae" was stamped in Cream CS using Memento Sweet Plum Ink. After that I added a pearl, I think it is the perfect touch. Finally I added some Purely Pomegranate Satin ribbon.
The inside of my card was decorated too.

Hope you like it.

Now head over to Susan's blog and check out the other DT member creations and also have the chance to win your own "Fannie Mae Set".

Have a great afternoon.

"Thanks so much"

For you

Hello my firends! I feel like it has been so long since I posted a card. I have had a very busy week. Anyway, Last Monday night I stamped a couple of cards and tonight I want to show you one of them. I made this card for Potluck Friday Challenge over at Stamp TV. The challenge is to create "A card on card". So I tried another technique from the SCS Resources: Joy Fold card.
For my card I used Pure Luxury Chocolate Kiss and Pure Luxury Ivory CS . The pretty papers are from memory Box Collection. I sponged the borders with Memento Rich Cocoa and Dessert Sand, then I used my sewing machine and added some zig zag stitches.
For the poinsettia: I stamped the flower on Pure Luxury Ivory CS using Chocolate chip Craft Ink , then I added some Clear embossing powder and heat embossed. After that I colored the image using daubers and inks: Dark pink , Real Red & Cranberry Crisp, then I added some Gold Stickles, cut it out and positioned it on a circle piece already cut, embossed and sponged .
The sentiment was stamped in Ivory CS using Memento Rich Cocoa and sponged with dark Pink Ink.

I am submitting this card for Color Throwdown Challenge# 69: Chocolate, Olive (optional), Cream and red.

Happy Holidays!

Let it snow!!

Hello my friends and Happy Veterans Day!!Today I am feeling better, my voice still on and off, pretty much off, but feeling better every hour. Today, we are going out for dinner to celebrate Veteran's Day. DH is a Veteran, so today is an important Holiday for Him.
I have stamped a bit yesterday, that makes me feel much better. I am in the Christmas mood lately, just don't want the snow yet. Some days ago I received my new stamps from smARTworks, and I decided to ink the cute snowman image from Happy Winter set and give it a try. The snowman was stamped in White CS using Stazon Black Ink. I colored it with Prismacolor pencils. I sponged the border with VersaMagic Aspen Mist Chalk Ink and Broken China Distress Ink (Tim Holtz), then I stamped the snowflakes from Reindeer set using White Craft Ink and Clear embossing powder, then I sponged more of the background area. Finally, for my ground snow I added some Dazzle Dust, this is perfect for snow or ice!! I also added some Sheer Stripe White ribbon . (just in case you didn't know, this pretty ribbon is only 0.39 cents the yard!!!, buy it before is sold out)

Here is my card:

I am still alive, just sick!

Helo my friends! Hope you all are having a great day. After feeling so sick and miserable, it was time for me to go to the doctor. So the results are I got a bronchitis and the flu. Great combinations, ha! I am taking antibiotics and other medications, so far I am started to feel a little bit better, especially with the horrible cough I am having, my ribs, back, chest, everything hurts when I cough. So today I am hoping I can create something.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
God bless you.

I am still alive, just sick!

My messy room.

Hello my friends! I have something to show, nothing to be proud of, but I thought it could be funny. This week, I have reasons to celebrate, my birthday first, (yeap I am another year older, LOL, my wonderful husband, who made the most wonderful meal for my birthday, my crazy daughter, who I love so much!! and of course, getting sick with a cold and the most horrible cough.So, I was not in the mood for stamping much this week, bu I managed to make a card on my messy desk. My desk was (ans still is) a big mess, I don't know how I did it. I wasn't feeling in the mood of cleaning, so I worked on top of my mess. Savitri has a contest going on to find the Messiest Room. So, I am so "proud" to enter mine, LOL. I am laughing and coughing now :)

Here is my reality:

My husband bought the Embellish Center for my birthday and it is still on the floor. I hope he can hang it tomorrow .

If I get selected, could you vote for me?? :) I need to stop laughing, so I will stop coughing
