Hello Everyone!

I hope you are having a great Sunday.

And this is my card:



I made this card using the Happy Die and the Favorite Flowers stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.
I embossed the flowers on Vellum and painted them with some Simon Says Stamp Inks (Audrey Blue, Lemon Chiffon and Green Leaf) and Regal Rose from Stampin Up.

I hope you have a great week.

Emboss It Challenge! Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog

Hi!

I am here with a card I created for the Simon Wednesday Challenge blog.
This week Challenge is EMBOSS IT...
For this challenge I wanted to use some embossing paste, I don't use embossing paste very often because it is kind of messy for me, but this challenge pushed me to do it.
I had a Wendy Vecchi embossing paste I haven't had the chance to play with, so this challenge was the perfect excuse to use it and I love this embossing paste.

I started with Bazzil cardstock in the color Candy Necklace ( this is my new favorite color).
I used the Dots stencil from Heidi Swapp to embossed the cardstock.
I heat embossed some flowers from the stamp set Favorite Flowers from Simon Says Stamp and color the back of them with some markers.
I die cut a circle with the Standard circle large die from Spellbinders, on it I stamped the sentiment,
(one of my favorite sentiments), with the stamp set Words of Inspiration from My Favorite Things.

For the base of the card I used some Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and listo the card is done!

Thank you for stopping by.
Have a great day!

Hola!

Aquí estoy con una tarjeta que hice para el desafío de esta semana en Simon Wednesday Challenge blog.
El desafío de esta semana es Emboss it! (pon relieve). Para este desafío quería utilizar las pasta para relieve de Wendy Vecchi que tenia hace semanas por ahí. Para mi, es un poco complicado utilizar las pastas por que son un poco difíciles ... no de usarlas por que eso es fácil, pero es complicado de limpiar el tiradero después de trabajarlas. :)
Bueno, volviendo a la tarjeta, utilicé papel Bazzil en color Candy Necklace, esténcil de Heidi Swapp para el relieve, además, estampé con polvo para relieve blanco las flores del set de sellos Favorite Flowers de Simon Says Stamp y las pinté por detrás con marcadores.
Corté un circulo con el Standard circle large die de Spellbinders, el que estampé con el sello de Words of Inspiration de My Favorite things. (una de mis frases favoritas!)

Espero les guste la tarjeta y gracias por ver mi blog!

The Cutting Edge Challenge #4

Hello,

I found a new challenge page to play and participate, is The Cutting Edge Challenge and I really like it!
The inspiration for the challenge is this card:


The card I made for the Challenge is this one:



I made the card with the same colors of the sample card but with a different design.
I used 2 dies from WPlus9, the Banner Trio die and The Spring Wreath.
For the sentiment, I used the Blue Note stamp set from Mama Elephant and Studio Calico.
I needed to put something black to the card, so I stamped with Black Versafine ink, some dots from the stamp set Big Bang Confetti from Winnie and Walter and put some glossy accents on top.
Listo!!!
I had lots of fun making this card.
Hope you like it!
Until next time!

Card using Gloss Finish Paper... Thinking of You

Howdy!

I had some sheets of gloss finish paper from Ranger and for the longest time I had no idea how to use them. But the other day I read the package…( it says to use with alcohol inks), the only alcohol stuff I have are some copic markers, so… I gave it a try and this is the card I made:




I used 3 Copic colors B12, Y13,R20, painted the paper and the colors blended very easy.
I heat embossed the sentiment Thinking of you from the stamp set Sending Happy Thoughts from Simon Says Stamp, with Liquid Platinum from Ranger and die cut the glossy paper with the stitched border die of the Femme frames from Mama Elephant.

I finished my card with 3 butterflies and some pearl embellishments.

I hope you like the card of today.
Have a bless week!

Thank you for stopping by.

I stamped the sentiment on white cardstock and die cut it with the frame cuts tag die from Hero Arts.
For the base of my card I used some Taffy Bazzill cardstock and listo!

I hope you like the card.

Lawn Fawn Get Well Soon...

Hey everyone!

I hope everything is going fine this week for all of you.
I have a card I made this morning with the stamp set Get well Soon from Lawn Fawn.

This little stamp set is adorable, I love the happy face, you can put it on the bandaid or in other image you have. :)

I wanted to keep this card simple but cute. I started stamping the sentiment on white cardstock with black versafine ink and die cut it with the stitched border die from the femme frames from Mama Elephant.
I stamped the bandaid image 3 times in watercolor paper and painted with distress markers (mowed lawn, mustard seed and peacock feathers), die cut the images with the coordinating die and popped them up with foam adhesive.
To finished the card I used Neenah desert storm cardstock for the base and glued the front layer of the card.

I made this card thinking in my brother Gerardo, he is a little sick. Hope he Gets Well Soon!
Thank you!


Hola a todos!

Espero esten bien. Esta mañana hice una tarjeta utilizando el set de sellos Get well Soon de Lawn Fawn. Este juego de sellos es adorable, me gusta mucho la carita feliz, puedes ponerla en la curita o en cualquier set de estampa que quieran.

Quise hacer esta tarjeta muy simple. Comencé estampando el Get Well Soon con tinta negra Versafine en papel blanco. Luego corte el papel con el cortador Femme frames de Mama Elephant.

Para las curitas, las estampé en papel para acuarelas y las pinte con Distress Inks (mowed lawn, mustard seed and peacock feathers),  las corte con el die set que coordina con los sellos y las pegue con espuma adesiva para darle dimension.
Para terminar la tarjeta, puse en una base de papel Neenah desert storm.

Hice esta tarjeta pensando en mi hermano Gerardo, esta un poco enfermo, espero que se sienta mejor pronto!

Gracias.

Boat birthday card...

Hola!

I made a card today for a cute little boy who's birthday is tomorrow, he likes all boy things like cars, super heroes and boats. 
So I wanted to make a card with a boat and waves, I have been wanting to try my tidal waves edger paper punch from EK Success and finally I did!
I wanted to include a boat in the card, the problem was that I don't have any boat dies or stamps, (I have to remember to buy one next paycheck ;)

Anyhow, I made this boat with a triangle shape and a half circle with my Cricut cutting machine. I put some eyelets to give it a more realistic look to the boat.
For the sentiment, I used the Birthday Balloons stamp set from Simon Says Stamp, heat embossed with the Liquid Platinum from Ranger on a layer of vellum.

I hope you like it.

Have great day!



Hola!

Hice una tarjeta hoy para un niño muy lindo quien cumple años mañana. A él le gustan los carritos, botes y super heroes.
Entonces le quise hacer una tarjeta con un bote y olas por que tengo un paper punch de olas de EK Success que lo quiero usar y no he tenido la oportunidad hasta ahora.
No tengo ningún cortador de bote entonces tuve que utilizar mi imaginación, corte con mi Cricut un triángulo y un medio circulo con eso comencé a jugar y así salió un bote.

Para la frase, utilice el juego de sellos Birthday Balloons de Simon Says Stamp que estampe con polvo de relieve Liquid Platinum de Ranger en vellum para ponerlo como una capa en mi tarjeta.

Espero les guste!
Gracias y que tengan un muy buen día.
