Chevron!

Here is the results of my playing with BB Chevron, oh my! I so love this set! I hadn't had a chance to play with, and I am trying to give some deserved love to my "collection" ;)
I wanted bright and bold, and I do like the results! I really like all those big sentiments, they make it so much easier!

Thanks for looking!
Hasta luego!

Backgrounds..

I have been enjoying the stamped backgrounds that so many are making now, they look so beautiful. look at this one by Dana, spectacular! Or this one, made with sentiments by the very talented Ingrid! or this gorgeous invitations by Nichole Heady! So I gave it a try, this is before I got my new papertrey ink, and I have to say they do make a difference, they are very vibrant! For this card I used memento and versamark inks to match Ocean Tides, Harvest Gold and Aqua mist, and a gray ink by studio g for little details and the sentiment.
Thanks for looking!
Hasta la vista!

I liked the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays, and decided to give it a try. The first thing that came to my mind when thinking of black, was a blackboard so I went with it. Here is my card:

Blog hop inspired...

I tried to make a card for PTI blog hop, but I really couldn't channel my "inner yellow" So this is what I ended up with. I gotta say I love that circle background set !! Gotta play more with them!
I tried something new to me, I use picasa to store and manage my pictures and I just recently  heard about Picnik, I just did the auto correction; it just looked brighter, but somehow the picture on the blog has some blurry spots! I have to figure out what I did wrong!!

Thanks for visiting!
Nos vemos!

Blog hop for Janelle

One of the most beautiful and fulfilling things about the "crafting world" is the people you get to "meet". Today a couple of great ladies,  Laurie and Dana put together a blog hop to send some love to a wonderful lady, Janelle, an awesome crafter and an amazing person. Go check her blog and leave her some love!!

I haven't touch my blog in forever, but I wanted to be a part of this. So here is my entry:
I tried the last Make it Monday technique, but it was hard and this is the best I could come up with!!
So Janelle this is for you, a warm embrace and many prayers for you and your family!!
