Summer Mini Swap and SCS CC 160

Hola Amigas! How are you today? How was your weekend? Me everything went well although Solimar's environmental allergies are really taking a toll on her. We have a dr.'s appt tomorrow...She went to see How to Train a Dragon with my sister on Saturday and had a BALL! They said the movie was REALLY GOOD! Anywho...I made this card and 23 others for a Summer Mini Swap I am in. What do you think? and for a little inspiration I used SCS Color Challenge 160. It was to use Creamy Caramel, Mellow Moss, Apricot Appeal and Cameo Coral. Talk about out of my comfort zone. But I think it LOOKS GREAT! I am in three spots for the swap so I have a total of 96 items I am making. 3 sets of 24.
Stamp-A-Holics 118
Hola Amigas...The name of our Design Team created by Sandi and Carole'Anne is Stamp-A-Holics. LOVE IT. Our first challenge is a color challenge. I want you to come and play with us. You can't resist playing with these beautiful colors. When you are done you can upload to Mr. Linky on Carole'Anne's blog. This is my first entry. My second entry will also be the Color Challene along with the 10 minute challenge that Sandi and Carole'Anne do every Friday. So you can do both on one project (card, scrapbook page, 3_D item) or you can do more than one. I wanted to have one up and early for you so this one wasn't time and had I timed it I would have lost. BIG TIME! This took me FOREVER...You look and your probably saying, WHY? Well I wasn't sure of the layout and I originally wanted to do a sketch BUT this is my first challenge with the DT so I wanted to make it my own design and SO I DID! Be sure to come back later and see if I can make a Desk Caddy in 10 minutes or less...My bet is on Mr. Ticker but we will see...If you decide to play and upload make sure its to the actual post or picture on SCS or other site. And come back and leave me a comment and let me know. I would love to see what you came up with. Vamos a JUGAR! Let's Play!

Awash with Flowers...Again

Black Eyed Susan
Hola Amigas. Are you enjoying this GLORIOUS weather? I LOVE IT. My little ones LOVE it...No more cabin fever, YEAH! Sorry I haven't been posting as often as I usually do. I have been SUPER busy. I am in a Summer Mini swap...You are going to LOVE the new Summer Mini. So I am just preparing my swaps...I will be posting more often VERY SOON. Also don't forget to come by on April 30. The Royal Blog Tour-The Promise of Spring will be launched. Here is a Trifold card I made using the NEW set Awash with Flowers that you will find in the New Idea Book & Catalog in July. It is a beautiful set. As many as you know I am not a flower on the cards type of chica but slowly but surely I am being converted...In this set this particular flower is not a Full Bloom flower. So I made it a full flower by stamping on the top and on the bottom. Then I added our Chunky Black glitter in the middle...Solimar says it looks like a Black Eyed Susan. That sounds about right...This card also looks great with a flicker tea light inside..It gives such a warm glow...So what do you think?About Me
