I can't beleive it's Friday again! / No puedo creer que sea viernes de nuevo!

Another week goes and is Friday again. That means that is time for another Flaunt it Fridays challenge! This week we should use the car cut from Nifty Fifties. Agin, if you don´t have the cartridge, you can use any car from another cartridge. I have my Pixar-Cars cartridge almost new, so I decided to use that one for the cut. I changed the "Ramone" original colors and give some silver shine to him. It was a little hard to keep the monochromatic tones on the metalized papers, but I like the final result. Hope you like it too.

Esta semana se me pasó casi sin darme cuenta, y de nuevo es viernes. Eso quiere decir que es momento

para un nuevo reto en Flaunt it Fridays! Esta vez el corte que debemos usar es el auto del cartucho Nifty Fifties. Como siempre, se puede usar un corte similar de otro cartucho en caso de no tener el que se pide en el reto. Yo casi no uso mi cartucho de Pixar-Cars, así que aunque había otros autos en varios de mis cartuchos, decidí usar este. Cambié los colores originales de "Ramone" y le dí tonos plateados, fue un poco dificil mantener el diseño monocromático con los papeles metalizados, pero me gusta el resultado final. Espero que a ustedes les guste también.

 The sentiment is from George and the "cuttlebuged" the background to give a little bit of dimension.

La leyenda es de George y el cartón de fondo fue embosado con la Cuttlebug para darle un poco de dimensión.

Birthday Sundaes Challenge

I must apologize for my late post today, but I have been with very limited access to my blog (and to my crafts) this week due to a surgery I had on Wednesday.
Debo disculparme por mi publicaciòn tardìa de hoy, pero he tenido acceso limitado a mi blog (y a mis manualidades)esta semana debido a una cirugìa que me hicieron el Mièrcoles.

This is my project for this week´s Birthday Sundaes challenge. What a lot of fun is to make a special something for a Birthday!
Este es mi proyecto de esta semana para el reto de Birthday Sundaes. ¡Què divertido es hacer algo especial para un cumpleaños!

I altered a paint can for my niece who is turning 7 years old. Her favorite colors are pink and black and she loves butterflies, so I came out with this 3D idea of the butterflies on the can.

I wanted to give something special to the black background, so I heat embossed silver swirls to the black paper. I think it came out quite well. Then I cut the butterflies from Indy Art 2 times one in pink and the other in silver with the blackout feature on. For the can lid I did the heat embossed swirls by using a pink background paper and mixing silver and black embossing powders. (I love the effect of mixing two colors of powders)

Yo trabajè esta lata de pintura para mi sobrina que cumpliò 7 años. Sus colores favoritos son el rosado con negro y ella ama las mariposas, asì que vine con esta idea en 3D de las mariposas sobre la lata.

Querìa hacer algo especial con el fondo negro, asì que le agreguè los colochitos con embosado en calor y polvo para embosar en color plateado. Creo que quedò super lindo. Luego cortè las mariposas del cartucho Indie Art 2 veces para cada una. Una vez en rosado y la otra en plateado con la funciòn Blackout encendida.  Para la tapa de la lata, hice el embosado en calor pero esta vez sobre papel rosado y mezclando polvo de embosar en plateado y negro.

I did a coordinating card with the same design using Wild Card for the shape.

Hice una tarjeta que combina con la lata usando el cartucho Wild Card para la forma de la tarjeta.

I know that my DT friends have BEAUTIFUL projects too, so go and visit them if you want to be inspired. I hope to see you playing along with us this week at Birthday Sundaes!

Yo sè que mis amigas del equipo de diseño tienen HERMOSOS proyectos tambièn, asì que vayan a visitarlas si quieren un poco de inspiraciòn. Espero verles jugando con nosotros esta semana en Birthday Sundaes!

Birthday Sundaes: Challenge #5 - Anything Goes Birthday Card

Esta semana para el reto en Birthday Sundaes se vale cualquier cosa, siempre y cuando sea una tarjeta de cumpleaños. Para inspirarme le pregunté a mi hija de 4 años qué cosa le gustaría ver en una tarjeta de cumpleaños y me pidió a Ariel... (debí haberlo sospechado!) bien, aquí está mi tarjeta de cumpleaños para esta semana. Seguramente estará destinada al cumpleaños de las amigas de mi hija.

This week´s challenge at Birthday Sundaes is Anything goes card, as long as it is birthday related. Looking for some inspiration I asked my 4 years old daughter what she would like to see on a Birthday card, and she asked for Ariel... (I should figured that out!) Anyhow, here is my Birthday card for this week. it will goes for on of my little one friend´s birthday.

Ariel is from Dreams come true Cricut cartridge, I draw the mouth and eyes because they came out really small from the cut and didn't look good.The design paper was embossed with Devine Swirls and the solid paper was embossed with the Birthday embossing folder. It is hard to see on the picture, but I added some glitter on Ariel´s top and on the flower.

Ariel fue cortada de "Dreams come ture" Yo le dibujé y pinté los ojos y la boca por que quedan muy pequeños y no muy bien. El papel con diseño fue embosado con Devine Swirls y el liso con el folder de embosado de Cumpleaños. Es dificil de notar en la foto, pero en el top y la flor de Ariel puse un poco de escarcha.

Espero verles esta semana jugando con nosotros en Birthday Sundaes!

I hope to see you playing with us at Birthday Sundaes this week!

Flaunt it Fridays Challenge

It's Friday and time for another Flaunt it Fridays challenge. This week we are asked to use a fish from Simply Charm, but I don't have that cartridge, so I decided to go with this sweet fish from Create a Critter and combine it with a stamp set that I had since ever in my statch.

Hope you like my card and seeing you playing with us at Flaunt it Fridays this week.

 

Congratulations / Felicidades

Luego de ver tantas manualidades sobre conejitos por todas partes, y gracias al reto que tiene mi amiga Jen de Jen´s Craft Corner, no pude más y decidí buscar entre mis cartuchos una imágen de un conejito para hacer una tarjeta con este tema. Esta es una tarjeta de felicitación que puede servir para casi cualquier motivo, aunque todavía no sé para que la utilizaré, me parece que por los tonos, incluso puede servir  para un baby shower.

After seeing so many beautiful craft projects with bunnies and thanks to my blog friend Jen from Jen´s Craft Corner, I didn't resist more and search in my carts for a bunny cut to make a card.  This card is a "Congratulations" card that can be used for any ocasion, I don't know yet how I will use it but I think that it can be used even for a baby shower.

The cut is from Nate's ABC, stamp is from Inkadinkado.

Y esta es mi tarjeta para el reto de esta semana:

I am hooked on coloring stamps and I decided to take a chance with water color pencils... I love that technique... I am still new to this coloring world, I know I need so much practice but so far it has been a great experience.
Estoy enganchada con el tema de colorear sellos y decidí darle una oportunidad a los lapices de color acuareables... Me encanta esta técnica... todavia soy nueva en el mundo de colorear y sé que necesito mucha practica, pero hasta el momento me encanta.

The dog stamp is from Recollections (Woof woof set) and the cupcake is from Inkadinkado (Birthday Cupcake set)

Birthday Sundaes Challenge #3

It is time for another Birthday Sunday's challenge and this week we have wonderful things happening at the blog.
The fabolous Designed2Delight is sponsoring this week's challenge, so there are 2 prizes being given away! (Yes 2 prizes)

I have to admit that I was not a digital stamps fan until I met this people from Designed 2 Delight... I am hooked with their images! They have a wonderful range of images and besides that, they also brings an excelent customer service. You will see more of their stamps around here soon. =)

For my card this week I used the Birday Party image. Isn't that Bird-party just too cute?

I decided to make an easel card. I love this type of cards and I thought that it allows me to pop up the image. 

For the sentiment on the base of the card I used a cut from the Straight from the nest cricut cartridge.

If you want to see some beautiful cards made with the wonderful Designed 2 Delight images, and want to know more about this week prizes and challenge, hop to the Birthday Sundaes blog, and play along with us this week!  We would love to see your take on the challenge.
