Hola a todos y FELIZ VIERNES!! Ahora le damos comienzo a los retos para este 2012!! Estoy súper emocionada de comenzarlos de nuevo. Tenemos patrocinadores de lujo este año y nuevos sets de sellos que los dejaran con la boca abierta!!

Well, and with a new year and new challenges I bring to you NEW DESIGNERS!

Bueno, y con este año nuevo y retos nuevos también les traigo DISEÑADORAS NUEVAS!!

Julieta, orgullosamente mexicana, médico de profesión , apasionada del scrap, inmensamente enamorada de la vida, adoro el estilo romántico-nostálgico-vintage, me encanta el papel Kraft y los suajes!!!! Mexican and very proud, doctor, passionate about scrap, greatly in love with life, I adore the romantic-nostalgic-vintage style. I love kraft paper and dies!!

Jackie, Six years ago I reinvented my taste for paper, buttons and flowers, giving a new meaning to the passion of creating, all this when I met scrapbooking. Space that re-signified what I am and what I imagine, where things that we dream come to life, today I give thanks to the opportunity to gestate imaginations with the beautiful sentiments from Dilo En Español, a new adventure that is just beginning. Hace seis años reinvente el gustó por el papel, los botones, las flores, dándole un nuevo sentido a la pasión de crear cuando conocí el scrapbook, espacio que resignifica lo que soy y lo que imagino, donde cobra vida lo que soñamos, hoy agradezco la oportunidad de gestar imaginarios con los hermosos textos en español de Dilo en Español, una nueva aventura que apenas se escribe

Onto Challenge #1 for this year! This challenge we had not done before and I enjoyed creating my card for it! Always felt very challenged when I saw this theme! But, that is why they are called challenges right? The theme is MONOCHROMATIC, create anything you like, be it a card, LO, bag, box, ect the only thing you have to watch is that you are using the same tones of the color you choose!

Y pues a darle comienzo a los retos de este año! Este reto nunca antes lo habíamos hecho y me divertí a miles haciendo mi tarjetita! Siempre me sentí media burra para este tema, pero por eso se le llaman retos no? El tema es que tu proyecto (ya sea tarjeta, LO, cajita, bolsita, lo que sea) sea MONOCROMATICO! Solo le tienes que poner atención a que los colores que uses sean de la misma gama de colores.

Aquí les muestro mi tarjeta! Utilicé mis sellitos de Dilo en Español, el sello de la bella monita es de The Greeting Farm, el papel es de BoBunny, twine de Trendy Twine y perforadoras de Stampin Up 

And here is the team for some awesome inspiration! 

Y aquí les muestro lo que el equipo les ha diseñado para inspiración!

My Creative Time's Throwback Thursday!

Hello everyone! Remember when I use enter Emma's challenges!! OMG it has been ages and I do miss it a lot!!! I remember at one point staying up that Wednesday before to know what the challenge was so that I could be first!!! LOL Yes! It became a little bit of an addiction!

Well, today is the last day to enter her challenge and I think this is one of the few times where I get to create something with a purpose other than to enter a challenge.

I have a student who had surgery and I wanted to create a card for him. He is a senior and played football last season and actually I think he played all four years! Well, he is going to be out of the classroom for 6 weeks!! He will be missed! He is a fun kid to have in a class!

So here is my card! I used Paper Doll for Everyday for the little guy and Peachy Keen's Laughy Taffy Face assortment. I also used My Creative Time's Touchdown and Pain Pain Go Away for the sentiments. Paper is DCWV.

I didn't want to put to much on the card, this is a 18 year old I am giving it to and did not want the card to look to girlie or playful! 

I had fun doing this! This is my first time using this cart!!! Just got it in December!!

Thank you for taking a peek!!!

I'm back!!!!!

WOW I have been really MIA!! My last post was the 19th of December!! I went to Mexico for the holidays and really had not had the time to scrap at all! But, since today we don't have to go to work, I stayed up last night scrapping! 

I created a cute card using one of my favorite stamps ever!!! Madelynn!! She is just the CUTEST thing ever!!! She is a retired stamp from The Greeting Farm.

Materials Used:

Dilo En Español Stamps (sentiment)

ColorBok Paper

The Greeting Farm- Madelynn

Copic Markers

Paper Studio Lace

Feather from Mexico

Nestabilities

Stickles-Star Dust 

My challenges start up again this Friday! and since I have been gone for a while I am going to try and scrap all this week and enter some challenges! i haven't done those in a while! 

Thank You sooo much for taking a peek!!
