OMG! MIA since Mother's Day!

WOW, I can't beleive I couldn't enter to my blog for a whole week!!! I am sooo sorry about it. I changed to IE9 and it didn't let me publish!!!! so this post was suppose to be on last Monday!!

Here is the card my daugther gave me at Mother's Day, it was the MOST WONDERFUL mother's day ever! It was an amazing day from start to finish!! Love my family, they actually work hard to make it magical! They are all sooo lovely!

My daughter made an extra card so my DH has one to fill out! and she also helped my lil one to make me one!! Lots of details and they didn't want for me to COOK, but that is not possible!! I LOVE to cook and I LOVE to see their faces when I get the plates in the table, so that is a blessing they can't keep from me, lol!! I said to them, I know you want to impress me and to honor me today, but for me is an honor to cook for you, so out of the kitchen!!!! lol, we all laugh and have fun about it! They knew I couldn't seat and watch! Specially since I need to use my NEW Waffle Maker!!

Hope you all had a marvelous Mother's Day and wishing you a great week!!

Want to see the others cards? I will post it later! lol!

WOW, no puedo creer que no había podido entrar a mi blog por una semana entera! Lo que sucedió fue que cambié a IE9 y no me dejaba publicar, este mensaje era del lunes pasado!!!

Aquí les comparto la tarjeta que me hizo mi hija para el Día de las Madres, que por cierto, fue el Día de las Madres mas maravilloso de la historia, jijiji! Fue un día increíble de principio a fin! Amo a mi familia, de verdad que se esforzaron realmente para hacer de este día uno mágico! Todos ellos son taaan especiales!

Mi hija hizo una tarjeta extra para que mi esposo me la diera! y también ayudó a mi chiquita a hacer la suya! Muchos detalles especiales para mi!! y no querían ni dejarme cocinar, pero eso no fue posible! Me encanta cocinar y me encanta ver sus caras cuando pongo los platos en la mesa, así que esa es una bendición que no me pueden quitar, jeje! Les dije, sé que me quieren impresionar y honrar hoy, pero para mí es un honor cocinar para ustedes, así que... fuera de la cocina!! jeje, todos nos reímos y divertimos con eso! Sabían que no podían decirme que me quedara mirando!! Especialmente cuando tenía que estrenar mi nueva waflera!

Espero que todas hayan tenido un maravilloso Día de las Madres y les deseo una excelente semana!

¿Quieres ver las otras tarjetas? Voy a mostrarlas más adelante! jeje!

There is no place like Gnome!

Ohhh!!! you don't have an idea how much fun is to work with this NEW set!! It's called No place like gnome and the sad part is that today I got my FREE order (the one I did using my Gift Cards from Seminar, I love TAC, lol!) and I didn't order this set!!! It has to be in my next one!! At least I stamped some from it at Seminar so I can share this card with you!! Don't you think that "gnome" is just beautiful? and fun? I used my Copic to color in and I like the result!!

Oh well, it's a short note because I want to finish the indexing part for ALL the new sets I got today and see if I can cut at least half of them, lol! I already indexed about 10 sets so I think I am half done with that part, if I can get out of here, maybe I can make it, so good night!! lol!

Oh I almost forget, Blog Candy Update: Ready to go postal tomorrow: Chusis, Wende, Zulma and Ardilla, thanks for your addresses!!! they are ready to go!!

*************************************************************************************

No tienes idea que mucho me divertí haciendo esta tarjeta con este NUEVO set!! se llama: No place like gnome! y la peor parte es que hoy recibí la orden de sellos GRATIS (usando las Gift Cards que me gané en el Seminario, amo TAC!! jeje) y no ordené este set!!! al menos había estampado algunas imagenes en el Seminario, así que pude hacer esta tarjeta! no crees que este "gnome" es sencillamente hermoso? y divertido? usé mis Copic para darle color y me encantó el resultado!!

Bueno, esto será una notita, pues quiero terminar de hacerle el "indexing" de todos los sellos que recibí hoy y al menos cortar la mitad, jeje! Bueno ya tengo hecho los "indexings" de como 10 sets, así que es menos lo que me falta, si logro levantarme de aquí puede ser que lo logre, así que buenas noches, jeje!!

Casi lo olvido, Blog Candy Update: Chusis, Zulma, Wende y Ardilla, sus imagenes están lista para ser enviadas, gracias por enviarme sus direcciones!!!

Big Scallops Borders Anyone?

Wow today is Monday! the weekend goes fast, right? I had a busy day today! and I am just trying to upload a card I did, but the Photoshop is not working. Don't ask me but is just don't want to open!! So I tried with Paint (is not the same I know, but at least I can share it with you now!) I will try again later or tomorrow with Photoshop to get it better.

Do you love BIG scallops borders? I love them, so I do this scallops borders using my circle punch to get the look on my card! I cut 5 half circles with my punch and I glue them to my desingner paper then onto the card! I love how they looks and it was so much fun!! Do they look good to you? Have you try using the circle punchs for your scallops borders? I have done it here to create that circle scallop on that Wallhanging that I LOVE!! Get busy and create something with circles punch today! Is fun and easy!

Need something and want to go shopping? Go here and shop with me! Recipe: Designer paper, Memo Fun from the Magalogue, Bitty Blossoms, Oval Coluzzle template, Congrats GWP and of course the circle punch!

Diana

Wednesday of Challenge

My challenge for you today! is an easy one! Just take a look at your stamps and if you find one that haven't seen ink! Ink it and use it! It can be a new set or it can be an old set! But try to look onto your old sets to see how many stamps you have without ink.

For my card I used on of the NEW sets from the Magalogue called Little cupcake! I couldn't resist to play with this one, is one of Mabelle's new sets, is irresistible, do you agree? I used stickles on the top!

I have to run cause today is Criminal Minds and Damages! and I am totally hooked with those! Don't forget to post a comment here with your entry!

World Card Making Day!!

Today we have a blast celebrating the WCMD! We did 16 cards and an awesome/gorgeous box to keep them in!! I JUST LOVE this days when I can met with my dear friends and we can create and share!! I really LOVE this days!!

I'm going to share with you later the cards (we made 8 designs and made 2 of each) and then I create a box using the Scor-Pal! My oldest daughter asked me about 2 months ago to some drawers for her so she can keep her cards in! and I NEED TO DO SO! because she thinks I'm CREATIVE/WONDER Woman, lol!! Some kind of Wonder woman mix up with a LOT OF CREATIVITY! and she asked me to do a lot of creative things (and as a MOM I HAVE TO DO IT, right?) So I start creating her drawers and I thought it was a great idea than I just need to flip and get a nice box!! You have to see the results!!

I'm sorry but today I'm a lil bit tired, and upload the pictures and do a slide show with them is going to take a lot of time, so I will share everything later with you! I promise you are not going to be dissapointed and you're going to enjoy it a lot!! I did the template with instructions so you can do the box at your home!! as a gift for the WCMD! Does that sounds good to you?

Please leave me a comment to share with me what do you do today to celebrate the WCMD!! Hope you have a blast like us!!

Love,
Diana

PS The card here was one of the 8 designs we did today! both sets (Deco Designs and Spanish Sentiments) are Mabelle's designs.
