I am thankful!

Happy Friday...

I am thankful for a productive week at work... for family... for love... for everyday miracles... for the opportunity to enjoy life...for all God's creation!!!

You know, Fall season is not a big deal in my beautiful Puerto Rico.  We do celebrate Halloween and Thanksgiving, but the "season" changes themselves are not too noticeable as in other places in the world.  So when I think Fall, I think gratitude.  And that's my spirit today... Just wanted to share that...

Here's a CAS card to reflect that sentiment.

I simply used strips of papers and combined together.

I placed two of the strips with 3D foams to provide some dimension.

Stamps are from Unity, both the sentiment and the leaf.

So, today I am thankful... Hope this inspired you to think of all the things you can be thankful for.  And... very important... I almost forgot....  Thank you for stopping by, for your comments... I am very thankful for my followers and blogger friends.  :)

Unity KOM Sketch and Ippity Challenges

Happy Weekend everybody...

I'm having a good time. Just doing some tasks and going around... but also took some time to make a card for the Unity KOM Sketch challenge.  And the good news is that I can link it also to the Ippity challenge and have double participation.

So, here's the sketch.

I used this sentiment I love a lot and DCWV patterned papers for the design.

I love the result and hope you also like it...

Tks for your comments and hope you have a great time this weekend.

Flower Dreams

I'm back!!!!  I had a wonderful time during my getaway and will share some of it in some future posts...

I want to share with you this card I made for the Ippity Challenge.  It features the use of flowers.

I stamped the flower pattern stamp several times, colored with chalks of different shades of pink and peach and cut the shapes.

I assembled around a stamped and embossed heart, making sure to have different dimensions using 3D squares, and added bling in the center of the larger flowers.

I then framed with card-stock, patterned paper and more card-stock using washi tape for an outer frame. 

I stamped the sentiment which is really a 4-line message, but cut around each word to be able to place in one straight line at the bottom of the card.

I love the imperfect result.  Do you?  Leave me your comment and remember you'll have the chance to win fabulous Unity's stamps because today is Friday and this means the day to share some art using Unity's stamps (FWF).

Bright Birthday!

It's Friday... I'm so happy!

I made this card for my beautiful 7-year old goddaughter.  At first I wanted to make a card with the number 7 on it, but then I remembered these Ippity stamps from Unity and thought it was a bright idea to use them!

I paper pieced the cake stamp with several bright colors and added some fiber and bling bling...  It shines just like the girl's personality!

When I showed this card to my husband, he said:  "It looks like her!"

I am linking this to FWF by Unity just for fun, and also to the Ippity Challenge using bright colors.  Hope you liked it.

Have a bright day!!!!!!
