FABRIC, FABRIC and more FABRIC
Hola Amigas! Happy Saturday. Here in Jersey we have BEAUTIFUL weather. We are off to my sister's soon for a BBQ. Well I have to tell you that you will not be disappointed with the new Idea Book & Catalog. Lots of new and FUN additions. I am glad that they are now offering a fabric line...One of my many new passions! Here is what I made recently with our SU fabric.
My first is a luggage tag. The front also has a vinyl layer so you can slip in your business card or you personal info...Cute, huh? How cute would this be on your convention bag?

Hola Amigas...WOW it has been so long that I have played with my Diva Sisters. Life is just having me take 2 steps back...But I am ready...FULL THROTTLE! Solimar's last day of school is tomorrow. Where did the time go? Kindergarten was FUN experience both for Solimar and I. The Kindergartners had so much FUN at their picnic yesterday. I was a Face Painter...WOW, my skills are pretty good! Today they have Rocket Day!
Joaquin and I are looking forward to the rockets being launched.
This week we have a color challenge.

My first card shows a simple background for the main image...I will then show you two other ways to WOW your card...Here I changed the background by using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder...
And here I used the Direct to Paper (DTP) technique. I used Sahara Sand Ink Pad and just rubbed it across the Sahara Sand cardstock in different directions. This is my favorite one...
So what do you think?
Paper: Not Quite Navy, Poppy Parade, Whisper White, Sahara Sand
