Challenge/ Reto / Desafio


This year I plan to participate in a few challenges. I think it´s a way to motivate yourself to create new and different things, to showcase your creations and to share with many other crafters of the community. This time is Timeless Tuesday #253 turn, at Flourishes. Best of all is the winner´s prize: All stamp sets of their recent release. 

The main rule is to create a shaped card, so for this one I used the larger dies of Spellbinders Gold Labels Four. And to honor Flourishes Stamps I used my beloved Cherry Blossoms Set (I know, I love it...). I used Spectrum Noir markers to color and Ranger´s Distress Ink in Spun Sugar to shadow it a bit, this last one matches the ribbon perfectly. 


Hope you like it!


Este año pienso participar en algunos retos. Creo que es una manera de motivarse a sí mismo a crear cosas nuevas y diferentes, de mostrar mis creaciones y de compartir con muchos otros artesanos de la comunidad. Esta vez es el turno de Timeless Tuesday #253 en Flourishes. Lo mejor de todo es el premio para el ganador: Todos los sets de sellos de su más reciente lanzamiento. 

El requisito principal es crear una tarjeta con forma (no cuadrada), por lo que para esta usé los troqueles más grandes del set Spellbinders Gold Labels Four. Y en honor a mi amor por los sellos de Flourishes usé mi muy apreciado set Cherry Blossoms Set... Usé marcadores Spectrum Noir para colorear y Ranger´s Distress Ink en color Spun Sugar para matizar la imagen, último que combina perfectamente con la cinta.

Espero les guste!

Video Tutorial: Quick New Year's Card with Simple Stories & Deco Foil

I'm back with a fun and really easy to make card for the Holidays or the New Year and I have a video tutorial with Therm O Web today. I'm sure we all are rushing at the very last minute looking for tags and cards and wrapping gifts... I know I always am. That is why my latest Holiday projects have been on the quick and easy side so you can try them out if you need to! The usual theme for New Year's cards is usually monochromatic, metallic... But, what if we used colorful Holiday colors instead? Why not? Well, this time you'll see me use papers from Simple Stories Very Merry Collection. Video Tutorial This is short and sweet video tutorial where I show you how I put together this card. Really with card designing the hard part is figuring out what you want your card to look like in the end but once you have figured out what elements you'll be adding and where you will be placing them the card comes together pretty fast. So the behind the scenes may not ha...
