Thanksgiving Card for the Elderly | IFTL Project

As I was about to start creating this post for IFTL Project I noticed that this will be my 600 blog post!
So I must celebrate! and celebrate means a giveaway! and how appropriate since I Feel The Love Project is a blog dedicated to giving cards to those needing a pick-me-up!  This month IFTL is collecting cards to give Thanksgiving cards to the elderly.  To learn all about it, please click HERE

This is my card or one of several that I plan to create and send.

It's a very simple card.  I originally created several tags during my guest spot at Heartstrings but I never got to post here on my blog and am now thinking that I will convert most if not all into cards.
I added some hand stitching on to of the corners for an extra handmade touch.

IFTL is trying to collect 200 cards to send to 200 seniors! Hope you can participate and help put a smile this Thanksgiving day on a resident over at Chancellors Village.

Breast Cancer Awareness | LUFP | DEE

Stopping by  with a quick post sharing a card I created for Link Up For Pink

LUFP is celebrating their 3rd annual linking party! Hope you can join my friend Yolie, the host and creator of LUFP.

My card is really a simple card that I created using a technique I have been wanting to try for a little while.

Inside of card below

I first cut the bra with a die from MFT on the front of the card (extending it open).  The second step requires that you fold the card back (close it), place the die on the same spot that you cut it at and run it through you die cutting/embossing machine with an embossing pad to make an imprint on the inside of the card. Hope it makes sense.
The banner is a die from PTI.  For the outline of the banner or glitter paper, I just traces by hand the die and cut it with my scissors.
The sentiments are stamps from Dilo En Español's "Yo Soy Tu Sostén".  No te dejes vencer, yo soy tu sostén it means Don't give up, I am here to support you. Speaking of DEE, I will be participating in a hop hosted by DEE this coming October 18th and 19th.  Hope you can come join us!
But for now, go visit LUFP and join in the linking party!

Mickey | California Adventure LO | Housecalls by Scrappin Madge

I am back sharing a scrapbook layout I created for Housecalls by Scrappin Madge (formerly Heartstring Designs).

I am still using the Hello Gorgeous kit.

The paint drip paper is so perfect upside down it looks just like the colorful water of the fountains at California Adventure! Love it!

 I was there for the Little Mermaid's HD release party California Adventure had just a few days ago.
My pictures look much clearer and brighter in person and match the paper oh so perfect!

Using my Silhouette Cameo I was able to cut the title to show the negative.  I used the starred paper as my title background.

I, using 3 circles was able to design a Mickey silhouette and cut it in Vellum to create one of the oh so trendy vellum pockets full of confetti or sequins.  I cut two and did some crazy stitching.
The smaller Mickey silhouettes were cut with a Mickey punch.

I was able to incorporate the Little Mermaid's print I received that night that was given as a limited memento to pass-holders.

This is September's Hello Gorgeous kit

and now available on their FB page HERE

Haunted Manor | Dia De Los Muertos | DEE 2nd Anniversary

Welcome to my blog and to Dilo En Español's 2nd Anniversary Celebration!!
With LOTS of prizes!!!  and all former DT members participating!!
 Bienvenidas a mi blog y a la celebración del segundo aniversario de Dilo En Español

Hope you just arrived from my friend Xochitl's blog but if you are here just visiting and wish to participate, please start at the beginning HERE
Espero estén aquí después de haber visitado a mi amiga Xochitl.  Si solo están de visita y gustan participar, por favor empiecen AQUI

I so wanted to have been able to showcase every single of my favorites stamps DEE has to offer, but was only able to create with a few super fun ones for this celebration.
 Me hubiese gustado mucho haber creado con todos los sellos de DEE pero solo tuve tiempo de crear con unos cuantos para compartir con ustedes durante esta celebración.

For my first project I put together Svgcuts' Maple Manor Mansion and added the super cute and not spooky at all "Brujita Feliz" (happy little witch)
Mi primer proyecto es esta mansión de Svgcuts a la cual le añadí la lindisima "Brujita Feliz"

 These are the pictures I took at night with a candle on the inside of the house.
Estas fotos las tome de noche con una vela dentro de la mansión. 

And these are some many :)  of the pictures taken during the day time but still inside my house.
Y estas son unas cuantas que tome durante el día dentro de mi casa.

Since is my play house :) my house is in Paris!  Love the look of the Eiffel Tower on the background.
Como es mi casita/mansión de juego yo digo que se encuentra en París!  Me encanta come se ve la torre de Eiffel detrás de la mansión.

Side view.
Vista de lado. 

The "Papel Picado" is from the "Mary La Catrina" set.  I heat embossed each section, cut them and adhere them to a piece of white crochet thread with fabric adhesive.
El papel picado es de el set Mary la Catrina.  Yo repuje? o gofre? en caliente cada sección, los corte y pegue con pegamento para tela en hilo de tejer blanco.

I fuzzy cut the "Brujita Feliz"   I stamped the dress, hatband, hat and star on pattern paper/cardstock.  The hat I stamped using white ink instead of black.  I colored the hair, skin and broom with Copic markers and added a bit of glitter to the star and ponytail bands using a Sakura gelly glitter pen.

I also heat embossed the sign "Home Sweet Home" from the "Home Sweet Home" DEE first "Say it in English" set that has recently been released.

And there is a surprise!!  Yes! the tower's roof opens up and I added some decorated kisses!
 Una sorpresa!!  El techo de la torre de la mansión se abre!  La pude llenar de besitos decorados!!

I heat embossed them with white embossing powder and Versamark.
I just love them! specially the Dia De Los Muertos ones!!  ... and of course if you know me, you might know that I love dark chocolate (pronounced in Spanish, ha!).
Me super encantan los besitos decorados para el día de los muertos!! y mas que son besitos de chocolate obscuro!! (o se dice agrio?)

I did not have enough time to create or finish "Frankie de miedo" and "Mary la Catrina" but will be adding them to my "casita"/mansion soon!
No tuve tiempo de crear a Frankie de Miedo ni a Mary la Catrina pero se los voy a añadir a mi mansion en los próximos días.

And one more project that my sister needed help with and we were able to finish yesterday... lollipop covers using the sentiment from "Brujita Feliz"  I love it that it is bilingual!!! - FELIZ HALLOWEEN -
Un proyecto mas! Me super encanta que el sellito FELIZ HALLOWEEN es bilingue!

Just need to purchase the lollipops and put it together.   My sister plans to give them to her DIL which happens to be my nice, so that she can give to her students.

Coffee with Paulina | Dilo En Español

Bienvenidas a mi blog y a  "El Baúl de Andrea y Dilo En Español Blog Hop"
Espero estén aquí después de visitar a Yoshira.  Si llegaron de visita solo a mi blog pero gustan participar en el hop, empiecen en Dilo En Español.

Esta es Paulina una de nueve muñequitas creadas por Orlis

A mi me gusta tratar o crear nuevas cosas o intentar algo que nunca he intentado y esta no es la excepción.  Hoy les presento a Paulina sellada con tinta Brilliance en papel/tela burlap.  Selló de maravilla.  La colore con Copics y fue muy fácil.   Me hubiese gustado mejor usarla en un mandil o una bolsa o blusa... porque la tinta Brilliance y los Copic después de planchar se pueden lavar.

  

Utilice botones de madera que Abby vende AQUI en su tienda.  Los dies/troqueles/suajes son de PTI y de MCT. 

No me puedo ir sin antes presumirles compartir con ustedes la hermosura que me llego de sorpresa el miércoles por la noche.  

 Y si que fue sorpresa!  Es mucho mas bella en persona!....  la tarjeta también! ;)
Si Yoshira es una persona super linda que conocí en el primer scrap de DEE.  Yo solo le pregunte que en donde compro el sello de la camarita que le obsequio a mi comadrita!!

 Y miren todo lo de mas que me incluyo!!!

 LOVE them!! 

MIL GRACIAS YOSHIRA!!

Sigue mi amiga la talentosa Lizeth!!
