Let it go...

Hello.  Hope you are enjoying the weekend.  

Just sharing a card I recently made.  I sprayed a base covering an area to later stamp the sentiment. 

The image was stamped and colored with watercolor paint... dot by dot. 

Then I framed the creation using several layers of green cardstock in different tones and finally over a plum color base. I used dimensional adhesives for some of the layers. 

Sequins were used as final touches over the painting details. 

Hope you like it.  Come back on Monday to enjoy the posts the whole week and get a chance to participate to win.   More information here:  http://winecheesescrapbooking.blogspot.com/2017/06/good-news.html?m=1

Thbak you.

Good News

Dear friends...

I am so excited to tell you some news.  

Today is the perfect day to tell you. 

I will be participating with Unity Stamp Co in the program called Growing in Unity ... so I will be a GIU Gal for one week. 

What does this mean?  Well... I get to share new projects using Unity Stamp Co, everyday for five days (Mon thru Fri).  I am very excited about the special projects I plan to create just for this special week when I will be featured.  I am hoping you can be with me through this journey and enjoy my creations. 

Posts will be originated in my blog and you can visit everyday to read the post and comment.  You will want to comment  on all five posts because at the end of the week I will choose two random winners to receive 25 stamps from Unity.  Easy, huh?  Unity is full of creative and amazing people and they are being very generous. This initiative helps me to be able to show my hobby and also gives you the opportunity to win cool stamps. 

But there's more...  I will share the link in my Facebook page too.  If you like my page, and also follow the Facebook posts interacting with likes, comments and shares,  you will participate in another draw to win a kit from Unity (this is from me!). 

Get ready. My participation as GIU gal starts next Monday, July 3 and until Friday, July 7, 2017.   Looking forward to share my projects and get lots of comments from you all. 

Have a great weekend.

Elena and Me!

Sometimes one just want to document a moment and the layout doesn't need to have the most complicated techniques or lots of embellishments.

A simple title and the photos as main elements in the page would do it.   That's how I felt today when making this page. 

I went to Cuzco, Perú about two months ago and when having lunch in Ollantaytambo, I shared with a man with several animals including Elena, the "alpaca".   I tried to take an "usie" with her but didn't make it until photo #11.  LOL!!!

So this is a layout about Elena and Me.  Hope you like it.

More butterfly effect

Hello!

Remember the beautiful butterflies I showed you in a past post.  (Click here:   http://winecheesescrapbooking.blogspot.com/2017/06/butterflies.html?m=1 )

I made three of them but only used two for my card.  So I used the third one for another card. 

This is a CAS design. I used colored burlap as base for the card. Then added a die cut shape where I positioned the butterfly.  I used dimensional adhesives for the wings so she can stand out. 

Also stamped the sentiment in vellum and added below.   Details with sequins provide a great touch.  

I will share this with Unity Show and Tell Facebook group.  Crossing my fingers to win the stamps. LOL!!!

Cupcake Little Card

Hello...

Let me share with you this cute little card I made for a niece.   It's a CAS Style card!

I got inspiration from current Curtain Call challenge.  You can know about it following this link:    

http://curtaincallchallenge.blogspot.com/2017/06/curtain-call-inspiration-challenge_15.html?m=1

I started with a white card base with banner holes.   I stamped the cupcake image and colored. Also used some glitter help to make it awesome. Also stamped the sentiment below the image. 

In the interior of the card I placed two pieces of cardstock, one of them with a punched border. These are seen thru the holes and give life to the banner. 

Hope you like my card. My niece loved it.

Y... Otra Tarjeta de Padres... LCSC72

Creí que les había compartido ya todas las tarjetas de padres que hice con sellos y productos de Latina Crafter....  pero se me había quedado una.  

Muy sencilla en términos de los elementos utilizados pero a la vez muy poderosa en su mensaje. 

Utilicé un "embossing folder" simulando una hoja de libreta en un cardstock verde. Esto lo utilicé como fondo para la tarjeta. En esta hoja estampé los mensajes tipo listado pero simulando que están escritos en una libreta como tal. 

Voy a compartir también esta tarjeta con la gente linda de Latina Crafter por ser el tema de los padres.  

Todavía está vigente el reto de Latina Crafter.   Link aquí:  https://latinacrafter.blogspot.com/2017/06/reto-aniversario-celebrando-papa.html?m=1

Hasta la próxima!!!!

Butterflies...

Hi my friends. 

Here I am sharing a card with you. 

I started with the butterflies.  I knew I was going to use one but couldn't decide which one.  I made a colorful background and let dry before stamping and cutting my butterflies. 

I later accentuated the colors in specific areas of the images. 

I then created a background for my sentiment using some spray color and distress inks.  

With an old book paper I created a window to reveal the sentiment. 

I ended up using two butterflies.  

Hope you like it. I will share with current Take It Make It challenge at Crafter Stamper magazine blog. Link here:

http://craftstamper.blogspot.com/2017/06/take-it-make-it-challenge-june.html?m=1

And I also will share with Unity Show and Tell Facebook group.  

Thank you.

Otra Tarjeta de Padres... LCSC72

Como les comenté en mi post anterior, he creado ya algunas tarjetas para la ocasión del Día de los Padres, las cuales estoy compartiendo en posts separados para contribuir al reto de Latina Crafter.   Esta es la tercera y última por ahora. Jejejeje

Todavía está vigente el reto de Latina Crafter.   Link aquí:  https://latinacrafter.blogspot.com/2017/06/reto-aniversario-celebrando-papa.html?m=1

En esta tarjeta utilicé un "embossing folder" para crear un fondo simulando un tronco de madera. 

Con el "die" de Latina Crafter corté la palabra "Felicidades". También estampé el mensaje "eres el mejor papá", y la estrella. 

Usando un cordón y otro cardstock de color sólido, combiné todos los elementos para terminar el diseño. 

Espero les haya gustado.

Tarjetas de Padres... LCSC72

Sigo inspirada con el tema de los padres. 

He creado ya algunas tarjetas para la ocasión. Las estaré compartiendo en posts separados para contribuir al reto de Latina Crafter. 

No sé si ya vieron mi post anterior con los abanicos ... pues si no, vayan ahora mismo. 

http://winecheesescrapbooking.blogspot.com/2017/06/abanicos-creativos-lcsc72.html?m=1

En el reto de de Latina Crafter, además de un sketch, provee un twist que en este caso es el tema de los padres.  Todavía tienen tiempo de participar. 

Link aquí:  https://latinacrafter.blogspot.com/2017/06/reto-aniversario-celebrando-papa.html?m=1

Para esta tarjeta corté algunas formas a mano y otras con ponchadores para simular una cinta de premiación en la que estampé el mensaje. Use papeles de diseño , cardstock y vellum. 

En la base de la tarjeta estampé repetidamente la imagen de la estrella en diversos tonos y colores predominando dorado y azul. 

Voilà!!!!   Es una tarjeta a estilo CAS que ha de gustar mucho a su recipiente. 

Como siempre, espero les haya gustado este post y gracias por sus comentarios.  

Voy a estar publicando las otras tarjetas en próximos posts todos estos días.

Abanicos Creativos... LCSC72

En mi bello archipiélago Puerto Rico hace calor todo el año. Pero en verano se siente todavía más. Es natural. Siendo tropical, nuestro clima es húmedo y caluroso. 

A veces insistimos en realizar actividades al aire libre a horas donde el calor azota más fuerte. Y la realidad es que si no es así no hacemos nada. Hasta en nuestros hogares, si no se cuenta con un aire acondicionado o fuertes abanicos, el calor puede llegar a ser insoportable. Y no es una queja (todos saben que no me gusta el calor excesivo pues yo lo siento aún más fuerte)... amo este lugar... es simplemente una realidad. 

Un abanico manual puede resultar pasado de moda para muchos y hasta ridículo para otros, pero cuando hace tanto calor terminas amando el abanico y al final luce mejor que un papel o cartón cualquiera. 

Utilizando inspiración del reto de Latina Crafter hice estos abanicos manuales. Los sellos usados son todos de Latina Crafter, por supuesto. El reto, además de un sketch, provee un twist que en este caso es el tema de los padres. 

Todavía tienen tiempo de participar si lo desean pues el reto corre durante todo el mes de junio.

My lucky star... Father's Day

Another Father's Day card for the stack. It's a CAS style that combines patterned paper with vellum and stamping. 

The patterned paper resembles star constellations and reminded me of this sentiment Stamp that mentions "my lucky star".   So I stamped it over vellum. 

I also added a Father's Day sentiment in a separate piece of paper and added with dimensional adhesives. 

Some enamel dots finishes it. Done. 

Like it?
