Dilo En Español Blog Hop!

Welcome to Dilo En Español November Release Blog Hop

Hopefully you just arrived from the talented July's Blog!
I couldn't wait to share this LO of my gorgeously gorgeous (sounds good to me!) grand baby!!



 I used "foto perfecta/perfect picture" and a quote by Ansel Adams "una fotografía no se toma, se hace."
The scroll and title cuts are from the Silhouette online store.  The tag on the left is a die from MFT die-namics while the bottom is a die/stamp set from Jaded Blossoms.  The coins are some of the coins we received on the premier of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie at El Capitan theater last Summer.
The Kraft paper and the polka dot paper that I pleaded and machine stitched (so easily because it is text paper thickness) are from the Bazzill collection that you can find over at Happy N Scrappin'
and the twine is from Timeless Twine!
NEXT is the super talented Xochitl HERE

Dilo En Español | November Release Day 4

Today is day 4 of this month's releases over at Dilo En Español.  This time is a mini set - Gracias
Perfect for creating all those thank you cards during this holiday gift giving season.

This is a card I created using several of the stamps included in this mini set.


I used dies from MFT to die cut the leaves on kraft paper and again using PP and used the PP ones to fill in the negative spots and random machine stitching.

Hope you can come over to Dilo En Español's blog to see what the other DT members created.

And don't forget to check us out tomorrow during our release Blog Hop! with Giveaways!

Dilo En Español Day 3

Today is day 3 of November's release celebration over at Dilo En Español

I made this card from a Basic Grey card kit I had not used and thought it was perfect for today's stamp set release.

I added some machine stitching around to make it a bit more dimensional.

This stamp set is perfect for all the wishing you well cards you want to create and send to loved ones.

Stop by DEE blog so you can see what cute and creative cards the DT ladies came up with HERE

Tomorrow we will be back with another set and on Friday we will be having a blog hop with prizes! Hope to see you then!

Project Life | Week 23 - Dilo En Español

Welcome to day 2 of Dilo En Español's November release week celebration!  And today we have another exciting stamp set that goes so perfect with my PL! or perfect for those doing Smash or?

The stamp set is Día a Día or day to day, and here is a look at how I was able to use the stamps on my week 23!

 I really like how I was able to use so many of the stamps on my layout.  "Mi día a día/my day to day"; "mis cosas favoritas/my favorite things"; "en mi tiempo libre/during my free time"; "momentos de diversión/moments of enjoyment"; "en la escuela/at school" and "en el trabajo/at work".  
Hope you like our stamp sets so far!!
Make sure you visit the other DT members so that you can see what great things they design with this versatile set!

Project Life | Week 25 - Dilo En Español

Welcome to my blog and to the Dilo En Español November release!

The stamp set is titled Sonrie or Smile and it is just perfect for my Project Life!

I know I have fallen behind, but I am all caught up all the way to September! I just haven't had the time to take pictures and write blog post to share.  Today I am sharing Week 25.  I know I have not yet shared Weeks 22-24 but will share later.

I love it that I can use these stamps since I am bilingual and it is my hope that my grand daughters learn (or that my daughter enforces the teaching of) Spanish so that one day they can look at this album and understand.
I was able to use the "click-click-click"; "este dia fue"/this day was; "divertido"/fun; "momento perfecto"/perfect moment; and the camera image!

You must go see what the other designer created with this fun stamp set!  HERE

Come back tomorrow so you can take a look at tomorrow reveal!
