BOWLING

Good morning everyone!!

Our week just starts today and I haven't done anything for this week. I will be working hard to have something to show and tell during the week!! For today I will share this simple layout I made of my daughter and her friends bowling. I used Sassafras paper, Kaiser craft paper, Karen Foster Cardstock Stickers, the title is another Karen Foster Sticker and Martha Stewart punch.


 My hubby and I went to the Bellagio's Conservatory & Botanical Gardens. Is now celebrating Chinese New Years with a unique display replete with symbolic meaning and traditions for the year of the rabbit.
This are seven replica terracota warriors, covered in crushed  walnuts and ground carrot seeds, the original terracotta army was buried with the first Emperor Qin in 210-209 BC in the Shaanxi province and later discovered in 1974 by a group of farmers digging a well.

I wanted to show you more pictures, but for some reason my computer won't let me do it!!
I will try later again. Now I have a good reason to use my Pagoda cartridge woohooo!!
For now have a great day and hope you can come back tomorrow!!

YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE

Good morning everyone!! Today is Wednesday my favorite day of the week!!
 today I will share with you two beautiful layouts I made!!
This is my baby sister and her daughter Renata!! She is soooo cute!! She has a big smile and she loves to pose for pictures you just say picture, picture and she will run to who ever has the camera!! And she is only two years old!! I think she is going to be a model when she grows up!!

I used My Minds Eye Penny Lane paper, Joann's paper, Chipboard Embellissements from me & my big ideas, Rhinestones from Ms. Flowers from Stampin Up, title from My Minds Eye and Mini Monograms cartridge.

This picture is so special to me. Having a teenage daughter is impossible the she will run and
hug you or even want it to take a picture with you, but thats what she did here!! That's why is so special to me. I used paper that I bought a long time ago from QVC, Martha Stewart punch, Ribbon from Ms. My Minds Eye title
I cut the flowers for another piece of paper and used some pop dots to glued.
Enjoy your day!! Don't forget to check my new classes!!

CARDSTOCK BLOOMS

Hello, Hello everyone!!

Yesterday I promised you I would post a little tutorial of how to make paper flowers and here it is!!
this is not my idea, I was checking one of my favorites blogs and Gabrielle Pollacco from Such a pretty mess has this tutorial and I fell in love with this flowers. you can check her blog here http://gabriellepollacco.blogspot.com/ she has an amazing work!!

With your Circle #2 die from Sizzix cut the circles

Cut out a large jaggedly edge to all the circles create a slight petal design by cutting small "V" into the edges, ink the edges, spritz both sides lightly with some water.

Then bringing the petals up from center give them a good scrunching 

Open them all together, glue in the centers.

Here are my beautiful paper flowers, you could put a gem or brad in the center and finally I used Sheer Shimmer Spritz 
Have fun making this flowers another way to use your scraps
Happy day!!
