Hola Amigas! How are you? I hope everyone's weekend was pleasant! Mine definitely was. Hubby spoiled me this weekend with a mini shopping spree. I purchased quite a few goodies and tables to FINALLY finish my office/class space in the basement. As soon as I get everything in place I will definitely take pictures to share with you.

I hope you will join me in playing with the LNS Birthday Challenge. I find that we can never have enough Birthday cards. Solimar is a social butterfly so we always have a friend's birthday to celebrate along with so many family members. I used the NEW Pinwheel Sizzlits Die. How CUTE, right? I also used the NEW stamp set Wishes your Way from the Spring Catty. This set has very cute sentiments like the one I used on my Birthday Card...

Wishing you a twirly-whirly birthday! So TWIRL your way to your craft make a Birthday Card and upload it HERE!

I can't wait to see your artwork!

Hola Amigas. How was your weekend? Ours was GOOD! This week's challenge is FEELING BLUE! I hadn't inked Papillion Potpourri so this was the perfect opportunity...I am glad that Spring will be here before we know it and what better way to bring Spring in my home then to ink up some butterflies...How do you remember the colors of the rainbow. Me I always remember ROY G BIV from elementary school. I hope you will play along with the LNS Challenge Team this week. I will continue to make a couple more cards with this set as well. HMMM, what should I do with all those lovely butterflies. What is great is these BIG butterflies have a matching punch. AWESOME! Stop by and let me know you played so I can check out your artwork.

 The first is Oh, Whale. Isnt it the cutest whale? This set comes with 4 sentiments. One of them being Whale you be mine? It's very versatile. You can also purchase the Happy Whale Clearlits that will help in cutting the shapes out. LOVE when Stampin' UP! creates coordinating products.

The second set is Oh, Hello. This is another versatile set. It comes with 3 sentiments. You can also purchase the Ovals Framelits Collection to help with cutting the oval that comes in the set and also layer them...

My last set is Dapper Dad. This is a very cool stamp set for all your masculine needs. I don't know about you but I always rack my brain for ideas in creating masculine cards. I love how I used our new bottle caps to frame the watch...TOO COOL! I would love for you to try a FREE TWO WEEK Trial with SUDSOL!

...so let me shut off my embossing gun. That is our LNS Challenge this week, Heat Embossing. 

There are some really fun techniques that use heat embossing 

but just plain old heat embossing is always a wow by itself. I versamarked my heart and then Iridescent Ice and then of course use my heat tool. It's LOVELY all SPARKLY! I love showing non-traditional color schemes. We always think of Valentine's Day as Real Red, Pretty In Pink,etc. 

Here I use Crumb Cake and Poppy Parade. What do you think?

We are making this card with one slight adjustment in my V-Day classes. I had one this past weekend in Philly and my next is next weekend in Flemington! Can't WAIT!

I hope you will play along with us. There are some GREAT examples not only from the Design Team but also the LOVELY participants. Come By and LINK UP your artwork!
