Hey!
I've been wanting to alter a picture frame for so long and I finally did it. I found this deep picture frame at Michaels just perfect to hold all those yummy embellishments I had in mind.
I use a picture of my daughter, she looks so cute in her "Tinkerbell" Halloween costum, I just adore this picture.
I hope you like it!

Hi,
This year I am trying to blog as much as I can. I am taking a break from work and dedicating more time to my hobby!
I am almost done making an album for my daughter plus I started making one for my son, so I've been spending a lot of time at my studio.
Anyways, today I want to share with you this page I made back in August. I took this picture of my kids while visiting my In-laws. You know how much I love taking photos specially photos of my kids.
I as lucky enough to have this page published in the January Issue of Scrapbook Trends. It is one of my favorite pages I've made, it just looks so simple, so clean, so perfect for that picture.
I hope you like it

Canvas, Butterflies, Hearts and Pinwheels

2012-02-09T06:11:00.000-08:00

Hey,

I bought some canvases at Michael's the other day and came out with this.
I wanted to decorate my daughter's room by using these canvases. I went ahead and I cut some butterflies, hearts and made some pinwheels. I arranged them on the canvas and that was it, they are so simple yet colorfull, they sure bring light to my princess' room.

Christmas Cards

2011-12-02T12:17:00.000-08:00

Hello!

I just finished setting up the Christmas Tree and decorating the stair rail, I feel like taking a nap right now!

I wanted to post these cards yesterday but didn't have time to do it.

As every year I like to make my Christmas Cards and this year was not exception. I made 6 different designs and I really love them all, they were so simple and fast to make, of course I wanted to create something different.

You will see I used the same shape almost of all of the cards. That shape comes from the "Winter Collection Christmas Cards" Cricut cartridge I purchased last year.

I hope you find some inspiration over here

Name Initial Wreath and party goody bags

2011-08-16T10:21:00.000-07:00

My daughter's birthday party was last month, she turned 2 yrs old, I wanted to make something else other then a banner to place above the party table. I decided to create a Name Initial Wreath.
Materials needed:
-Foam Wreath
-Crepe paper
-Paper doilies
-Glue gun
-Flowers and embellishments

I used a roll of crepe paper I had bough at Toys R Us long time ago to cover the entire foam wreath, once I was finished wrapping the wreath around and making sure no green was shown I cut the doilies in half and wrapped them around the ring once again, half by half until having the wreath all covered.
Then I placed a piece of white cardstock as a background for my DD Name Initial, then I arranged all the embellishments on the side, I used ribbon, flowers and a butterfly since the party theme was butterflies.

End Result

These are the easy-fast to make goody bags I made for my daughter's b-day party.

So simple to create, I used my cricut expression machine to cut the butterflies and the white circled ring. I made butterfly goody bags for the girls and pin wheels goody bags for the boys.

Another Mother's Day Card

2011-05-05T05:29:00.001-07:00

Hello friends,

This is a card I made for my mother in-law for mother's day, I found inspiration in the Feb. issue of Cards magazine. I used my sewing machine on this card (and for the first time ever) and I really like it. I am not that good working with distress inks but I had to give it a try one more time.

I stamped the butterflies and leaves and cut them around the edges

Hi
I hope you are doing great! I woke up today feeling great but that did not last long, I started feeling nauseated and at one point I lost my balance while walking around the house and my head started spinning around...OH my that does not make me happy since I got to fly to my home town tomorrow!!
I hope to feel better by the end of the day.
Today I am bringing to you, another 8 1/2" X 11" LO. I am into this page size now :)
This page was made using some scraps from previous projects.

I used my cricut machine to cut out some butterflies but I ended up using those butterflies for another project, so the remaining was this kind of "stencil" like, I just placed some patterned paper underneath to bring up some color and definition, I embellish them using blue buttons and white floral sprays.

I hope you have been inspired today..

Hola!

Como estas?...(I am just warming up my vocals a little bit before heading to Mexico next week :)

I can't wait to enjoy the beautiful Sunny weather and of course, can't wait to see my Familia!!

Well, let me start telling you that I've always wanted to make a 81/2 x 11" LO, I love making 12x12" pages, it is just that sometimes I find it hard to "embellish" that much of a space, specially when using small size photos, so anyway I created this LO using a photo of my DD I took last Fall.

This cute bird came from a sheet of paper by Recollections. I made its wings by cutting a punch circle in half and layering it one half on top of the other like so.

I punched out 2 flowers from patterned paper and placed them on a scallop circle punch then attached them together with a stitched Brad by Basic Grey. I also embellished a bottle cup by placing a punched image found in a patterned paper by Basic Grey, I used Glossy Accents to give it that clear effect.
