I have to apologize for the late post and the poor light in the picture. I had to take it at night if I wanted to participate in this color challenge. I will try to take another picture and post it later this week when I back home.


Beautiful colors once again! Loving the picture that inspired the color inspiration this week... This wont be a long post just want to really quickly share what I didi for this challenge.



I am traveling so I will post more about the materials and details about how I did it or how I came u with the idea! I looooove this card! I used the Kristina's template... I am really in love with that template.

Thanks for reading

Thank You Teacher!

Hello there!

I made this card thinking my friends can use it to thank their son/daughter 's teacher... for parent teacher conference, for report cards, or for any special occasion just fo a teacher!

I used DCWV, I and SU Defining stamp set. I was actually really suprised on how many colors I used and they look great together. The colors are bright and really loudly screams: "SCHOOOL!!" I really like it!


I hope you find some inspiration on this card! Many thanks for stopping by!!
Hugs

You & Me!

Hello there!!!
Just uploading some pictures of cards. Very simple card. I used inkadinkado acrylic letter stamp set, some great embossing powder and DCWV cardstock!



I made this thinking about love, happiness and my hubby! I know these are not his colors at all but it is how I feel when I see him you know light, soft... (sigh) sorry I got carried away hehehe.


Enjoy and let me know what you think!

Hugs!

Kristina's Color Inspiration # 46

Wow!!! I tried sooo hard, so hard. Tim and I have two cameras and I tried using one of them but the memory stick was not working on my computer!!!! How frustrating but anyway... I just wanted to still posted eventhough I would have not been participating.




I was inspired by Kristina making her own embellishments! So here I made my own flowers just two but I think they turnout very cute. It was difficult not to use white I had to!!!I used colors from the challenge but I got tha cardstock from The Pack from DCVW! I love it!I also used Stampin Up smart cookie set! I wish there was a bigger version of this stamps set!

So what do you think? Do you think I could have make it to the top ten!? hehehe I don't know but I really liked the flowers I might use it in other projects! we'll see!
Hugs!

Remember?!

A few weeks ago I posted a message really happy 'cause I found "Scrap it" the only store with basic scrapbooking and cardmaking materials. They have this Challenge where they let me pick a chipboard letter with wich I have to create a card... after struggling for a whole week I was able to come up with a couple of cards that I love... check them out.

I picked the letter "U" I think the U is very versatile... easy to use when it comes to a writing a sentiment. The only problem was that the letter was almost too big. LOL. it worked all right I think, right? what do yah think?

Materials: well, let me see if I remember.. uhm... yes bazzil cards stock, the paper I don't know where it is from I think it is K&B, I used versamark, white embossing powder, SU smart cookie set, some small pieces of DCWV card stock from The Pack.

Anyway... three different cards with couple of things in common, can you tell wich ones? besides the letter "U"? And wich one is your favorite? Mine is the one with orange designer paper!


Many hugs!!!

Max Is Here

I made friends with a great Pre-Kinder teacher. Karina is a wonderful person I wish I would have met her long time ago. Anyway... she will be bringing Max to this world very soon and we are all wishing her the best while she is getting ready for his arrival.


Karina was looking at other cards I made and she came up with this great layout. I think it is soooo lovely! it took me nothing to put these cards together. What yah think? I love it!!

The paper is from DCWV, star punch and dimensionals... the rest is my printer's work.

(sigh) I can't wait to see little Max soon!

Hugs!!

Teacher-Like Card

Looking at old cards. I found this one. I loved it sooo very much I thought.. hey I have not share this card yet. So here it is...

I remember when I made this card I was not working and was in teacher-like kind of cards... I got a very cheap apple puncher and used it to create this and other cards... I really like the apple design. Also these very basic colors... reminds me of school and the simple colors that can make a teacher's room a very warm and welcomy environment for children.
No fancy materials for this card. I think the only fancy one was the ribbon I got from the local craft store. Of course the SU stamps and ink. The paper I took from my notebook and old boxes cardboard ... Isn't it cute? I love the red apple, I used Versamark and clear embossing powder and finally punched the apple!!! really neat contrast and a great look.
Look at this card and think of ..... a Pencil! ;)
Many hugs!

Long Time Not Updated



Yeap I know it is been a long time and I am very sorry. But here I come with a couple of cards.

But before giving you the cards I want to share something. I finally went to the only scrapbooking store in this big city. Not a very big store,taking into account that there are soooo many companies with soo many great products.. you can go to http://www.scrapit.com.ve/ to check it out. It is not a big website but it will give you an idea of how new the scrapnooking is in this country.



So I tried uing some Color Inspiration and couldn't post it on time to participate in the top 20 but I just thought I could post it now.. I used the same sentiment stamp...
Did you noticed I am not using any designer paper? I know I guess I have used none before but it is not usual. Soooooo what do you think? like it? any suggestions?
Hugs!

Kristina Werner Color inspiration # 40!!


Sorry I have not post anything is such a long time... I just went back to work and now I don't have as much time as I would love to.

I was also patiently waiting for Kristina's Color Inspiration and here it is.
What a great color combination! I actually used these colors to make a group of cards. Please check them out.
Closed, showing the front.

Open and showing the cards inside!

This is my favorite of the cards!
I really like these colors, they are sort of citrus-y. I agree with Kristina!...



This is my second favorite one!

I used My Minds Eyes paper, Chipboard ( I dont remember the company) and no stamp! How crazy is that!? I also used paper punches, markers... I am trying to think really hard about the materials I used but they don't seem to be coming up in my mind.

Please check, enjoy and please leave a comment!

Hugs!

4EVER

This is a card I made before our Christmas break. Ian and Pauline got married at a beach. I never saw her dress but it was funny to learn that her dress was the same color the ribbon I used!!! how crazy is that? I bet that if I tried to plan the card based on her dress color it would have never happened!

This card was a group card so, meaning a card a group of people would share and signed fro Ian ansd Pauline. Ana (a friend) added couple of handmade paper inside so friends from work could sing the card.

Hugs and enjoy it!

Jet lag and a couple of cards!













Hello everyone,

Sorry I have not been around for a while. We travel for three weeks to the amazing country of Thailand (happyland). We had a great time! but we were left with a big jet lag. After being back home for 5 days we are still weaking up at 3 or 4 in the morning. I am very happy Tim is a morning person just like me... we get up (we don't have much of a choice) and start our day super early, having breakfast together, something we don't get to do it often and so on.


Okay sooo... inspite being very sleepy I get to do couple cards during the say when I am still wide awake... so, here are couple of "mommy" cards... I think they look great, what do you think?





































Well, and there they are what you think? Hope you like them and enjoy then and find some sort of inspiration.


Hugs!

Kristina Color Inpiration # 34


Hola, hola!

I have made this card for a great person and a good friend! She is moving next week to a different country and eventhough I don't see her often, I know I will miss her a bunch and hope we meet again someday. I hope she enjoys it, actually, I made a set of 4 note cards for her as a gift. I will show them to you later in the week.

For now I just want to show you one of the four cards I made for my friend. This cards were inspired by the template Kristina, once shared with all of us, I will try and look the link so you can have it too. So I hope you like it! Here it is.


Cute, ah? I really loooove this paper, I have used design paper from Special Occasions.

I keep telling you and myself this, it is hard to create a card with stamps that I have used once and again, and again, again and again. I am getting more as soon as I can. I am mentioning this because of the sentiment on this card. It was hand written, which is not so great looking, (Sigh)

I am sorry I was babbling hehehe. Please, enjoy it and let me know what you think, leaving a comment.


Many, many hugs!!!

P.S. Sorry it took me a while, but I finally found the template! Hope you enjoy it!
