Get Well

Hi All! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!! Ours was so wonderful. We spent it with family and friends. I haven't had much time to stamp but I did have this project completed from a few weeks ago to share. For this fun little creation I decided to pull out my TCP "You Sick Thing" images to make a mini first aid kit box. I colored everything in with my Copics and added some American Craft patterned paper. I added some TCP buttons to the top of the box. I also did some paper piercing and piecing. The ribbon is from PTI. Well, that's all for today but I plan to have a TCP Tuesday card tomorrow.
Hugs,
Ana

Happy Saturday!

Hi All! Sorry I've been gone these last couple of days. With the holidays around the corner I have been so busy. This year seems to be more hectic than ever. Since Josh is 5 now he is really enjoying and understanding Christmas so much more. We've had a blast taking him to see lights, Santa Claus, and other festivities. I haven't had to much time to stamp but I did finish this scrapbook page using the super adorable TCP holiday stamps. I seriously adore these images. I also used TCP embellishments such as glitter, brads, and ribbon. Well, that's all for today but I hope to have some more projects and cards to share with you soon.
Happy Holidays
Ana

TCP Tuesday

Can you say a little late? I finished my TCP Tuesday card last night but haven't had a chance to post it on my blog until now. It's been crazy these past few days. Josh's birthday is around the corner and I have tons of little errands to complete. I tend to leave everything for the last minute so this time I want to be early. (keeping my fingers crossed) lol So, yesterday's challenge was brought to you by the fabulously talented Joanne. She has a great color combo for us. I had some fun with this one. She wants us to use light pink. kraft, and vanilla. I decided to pull out my new TCP holiday stamps along with some Basic Grey patterned paper. I completed everything with some TCP glitter and buttons. I really love how it turned out.

Peace on Earth

Hi All! Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. We had an amazing time with family and friends. There is so much to be thankful for and having your loved ones celebrating with you is one of them. Today we are all praying for my cousin Alejandra who is having brain surgery as we speak. I ask that if you have some time please say a prayer for her. Her story is on this post if you missed it and would like to know. She asked me to thank everyone who sent her cards. They really made her day and put a smile on her face. I am working on a special get well card for her but right now I have a The Cat's Pajamas card to share. I used my new "Penguin Christmas" set for this card. I adore this little penguin! Isn't he the cutest?! The best part is that he and all stamps at TCP are 25% off!! Make sure to check out the awesome deals going on. I colored everything in with my Copics and sponged the outside with ink. I added some Zva Creative brads that mimic the patterned paper. I think the complete the card perfectly. Well, that's all I have for today. Make sure to check back on Monday for some more holiday stamping.

TCP Tuesday

Hi All! So, it's time for another super fun TCP Tuesday. This week's challenge is so fun. The super talented Amy wants us to emboss today. I am so glad she is asking that we pull out our embossing tools because I haven't used them in forever. I decided to use my Swiss Dots cuttlebug embossing folder for this card. I used the super fun "Make Merry" and "Coolvetica" alpha. I really like how the background came out with the stamped new year numbers. To complete everything I added some super fabulous SEI ribbon and Zva Creative rhinestones. Well, that's all for today but I have another Christmas card to share tomorrow. FYI The Cat's Pajamas is having a Gobble Sale on November 26th-30th. All internet orders get 25% off! Woot!! Check out the site for all the details.

Snow Days

How about another card featuring the newly released The Cat's Pajamas sets?! I am having so much fun with these stamps and supplies. I decided to use the super cute skating penguins for this card. I colored them in with my Copics and then sprinkled some TCP clear chunky glitter to resemble ice. I think this glitter is amazing!! I also added some silver for a little more sparkle. I love how it turned out. To complete the card I added my sentiment along with a satin bow. Well, that's all for today but I have a few more TCP cards up my sleeve. Don't forget to check out all these new stamps sets over at the TCP site.

TCP Blog Hop!

Hi All!! I am so excited about today's The Cat's Pajamas blog hop! TCP is releasing 5 new sets tomorrow! They are seriously AMAZING. So, to celebrate the release, Alma has organized a super fun blog hop. If you want to start from the beginning then head over to Susan's Blog. The set I am featuring today is called "Give A Little" along with some new accessories that will also be available. The buttons are called Vintage Holiday and the glitter is Holiday Glitzy. I paper pieced the teddy bears tummy and added some glitter on the hat. To complete the card I added some buttons and tied some twill. I love the vintage feel of this card. Well, that's all I have for today. Your next stop is the fabulously talented Julee. I can't wait to see what she has in store for us. Happy Blog Hopping!!

Happy Chanukah!

Hi all! I know I'm super late on posting my TCP Tuesday card but technically I still have 20minutes before Wednesday comes around. hehe Today's super talented Hostess is Joanne and she has a fabulous color challenge for us. The colors inspired me to use my soon to be released The Cat's Pajamas Hanukkah set called "Shine Bright". This set along with a few others will be released on November 10. You are going to love these sets!! So I cheated a bite on the challenge by adding some color but I think Joanne will forgive me. I used the new My Mind's Eye patterned paper. I love that stuff! Well, that's all I have for you today but check back for more eye candy.

TCP Tuesday and a Release Blog Hop!

Hi All! So, I am super excited about today's TCP Tuesday inspirational challenge because I get to use one of the two new The Cat's Pajamas sets. They are super adorable. The hostess for this week is the super talented Toni. She has a fun picture she wants us to use as inspiration. Today, I am featuring the Thanksgiving set called "Gobble It Up". I picked the cute little penguin as the main image and added a yummy pie to go with him. The sentiment is also part of the set. I used Cosmo Cricket patterned paper along with a Karen Foster charm. I love how the dinner setting embellishment brings the whole card together. Well, that's all I have for you today but make sure to check out all the awesome creations in the TCP blog hop featuring the new sets. All the fun starts in Toni's blog.

A Sad Goodbye and A Request

Hi All! So, today is a bittersweet day for me. I am announcing my departure from the Taylored Expressions Baker's Dozen Design Team. I've had such a wonderful time with Taylor and all the talented girls on the team. The stamps and DT have become a part of my heart and I will miss them dearly. Lots of things have changed in my life these past few months. My sister in law was just diagnosed with breast cancer and my cousin with a brain tumor. All these events have made me realize that I need to focus more on my family. I will continue to stamp since it's a form of therapy just in a slower pace. I want to thank Taylor for giving me the honor to be on her team.

So, now to the request. As I just mentioned my cousin Alejandra was just diagnosed with a cerebral brain tumor. She is only 30 years old and a newlywed. She has accomplished so much in her short years. She is already an MD and was currently practicing her internship in a Miami hospital. I've truly never met anyone so driven and passionate about helping people. Unfortunately her dreams of starting her practice have been postponed until she is better. Now she needs our help. I have decided to make her a card and send it to her every week. She needs all the love and support to get through this. So, my request is to help me send her cards. If you happen to have a card laying around that you feel you can part with please send it to my cousin Alejandra. I've already sent her a few cards and she absolutely loves them. They have really brightened her day. My card today features the beautiful Taylored Expressions "Fresh Flowers" and "Faith and Hope". I hope she likes it. I feel the quote is so powerful. I have included her address along with some pictures so you can get to know her better. Thanks in advance for all your help. Feel free it pass this along. The more love the better!

Much love,

Fright Night

So, are you ready for another spooky Halloween card featuring the adorable TCP "Fright Night" set? I hope so because I have another card to share today. But before I begin I want to thank everyone for such a warm welcome back. I love my girls!! So, I colored the images with my Copics and used my new My Mind's Eye-Boo To You paper and accessory kit. I am in love with these patterned papers and die cuts. I combined them with the spooky ghosts images to make a fun little card. I added some TCP glitter on the ghost bow ties and tree leaves. I think it makes the card pop. Well, that's all for today but don't forget to check out the TCP Haunted Blog Hop for a chance to win this set and more.

TCP Spooky Halloween

Hi All! So it's been over a month since I last posted something on my blog. How time flies! I've been busy with some personal and family issues and decided I needed a break from Blogland. I have missed you all and am so thankful for all the emails asking if I'm alright. I've done some stamping the last few days. Its felt so good to get back to my studio. I made some Halloween cards and I was browsing my blogger reader I noticed that TCP is having a Haunted Blog Hop! How fun is that? The beginning of the blog hop starts with the amazingly talented Susan. I can't wait to start blog hopping! For this card I used the ADORABLE TCP set called "Fright Night". I love these images. They are the cutest. Well, that's all for me today but I have lots of other cards to share with you including another TCP Halloween card.
Until next time,
Ana

Taylored Expressions Release Day!

Today is the day ladies!! All new stamps are now available online over at Taylored Expressions! I can't wait for you guys to see the sets in their entirety. I know you are going to love them! For today I decided to pull out my Berries & Cherries set again. I am seriously in love with these images. They make my mouth water every time I use them :) I also wanted to use my Berries & Cherries Key Ingredients. I know I already made a card using the new key ingredients but I love them so much I had to use them again. These kits really lend themselves to so much variety. It's always so easy for me to just grab the KI and go! I colored everything in with my copics. To add texture I did some paper piercing and embossing. I really like how this card turned out. So, not only are these two new sets available, but Taylor also has some new bundles. I love how she offers these bundles of amazing coordinating products at a great value. Well, that's all for me today but don't forget to check out the rest of the Baker's Dozen.

Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek Day 2!

So, are you ready for some more Taylored Expressions Sneak Peeks?! Well, today I have a card featuring the second of the two sets that will be released tomorrow. This set is from Whimsical Wishes and is called "Chillax". Don't you just love that word? I represents everything good about the summer. This set has something refreshing and cool for everyone. I decided to "make" a strawberry margarita...yummo!! I colored it in with my Copics and then added some crystal effects to create the frost glass look. I think it looks good enough to drink :) This set doesn't have coordinating key ingredients but it is part of an awesome bundle called "Kick Back Beverage Bundle" which includes tons of embellishments and extras at an AMAZING value! Taylor will have all the details tomorrow on her blog. Well, that's all for me today but I do have another fun card to share tomorrow for the big release day.

Today is the first day of the new sneak peeks. Two new fabulous sets will be available online Wednesday, August 5! The set featured today is called "Berries and Cherries" along with the coordinating key ingredients. I am in LOVE with this set because strawberries are absolutely my favorite fruit. I especially love them dipped in chocolate so this set has my name written all over it :) I decided to use last week's SCS sketch challenge as inspiration. I love how the layout allows me to display various images. All materials are from the new key ingredients except the brads.

Christmas in July Blog Hop

Hi All! So, just as promised today I have a fun surprise to share with you. Some of the girls over from Taylored Expressions have organized a fun Christmas in July blog hop! Sound fun?! The reason for the blog hop is to show off these new awesome Perfect Package that are now sized perfectly for A2 cards. My favorite part of these boxes is that they fold up for easy storage, have a magnetic closure, and are easy to decorate! That means you know have a great way to make quick and easy Christmas gifts for all your family and friends. I decided to make some Christmas cards using the TE Whimsical Wishes "Beary Special" and "Beary Special Accessories" stamps. I embellished the Perfect Package with patterned paper and Zva Creative rhinestones. To complete everything off I added a big bow. I can't wait to start making these for all my family. Well, that's all I have for you today but make sure to check out all the other participants in the blog hop. I can't wait to see what all the girls have created.

TCP Tuesday

Hi All! I am so happy to finally get some time to stamp. Summer has been crazy but lots of fun so far. Today I have a fun TCP Tuesday card to share. The Hipster Hostess this week is none other than the super talented Carole. She has an awesome sketch for us to play with. I switched it around just a bit to fit my stamp. I used the new TCP Happy Camper stamp images. Isn't this owl the cutest?! I also pulled out my floral soft to create a soft patch of flowers at the base of the trunk. I really like the subtle detail. Well, that's all for me today but tomorrow brings a fun surprise so don't forget to check back.

Fun in the Sun!

Hi All! Hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Today I have a quick post and card to share. Last night I decided to pull out my new Stamp A Sweet Impressions 'Beach Bum" set. I adore these cute little cuppies having some fun in the sun. It's been so hot here in Houston that playing with these little guys was refreshing. I paper pieced the sailboat sails and colored everything else in with Copics. All other card stock, patterned paper, and accessories are from the Beach Bum Key Ingredients set. I love this stuff!! Well, that's all for today but I plan to have another TCP card later on this week.
Stay tuned :)

4th of July Fireworks Bag

Hi All! Today, I have a cute little project to share that is being featured in the Taylored Expressions Newsletter. Woot Woot!! I am so excited about being the newsletter guest this month. If you haven't signed up for the TE newsletter you should because they always have awesome projects on display. It also informs you on all the important info going on over at the Taylored Expression store. To join the mailing list all you have to do is enter your email on the link provided in the TE store. Ok, back to the project. Since, the 4th of July is quickly approaching I decided I wanted to make some fireworks gift bags for the kiddos on our street. Every 4th of July all the neighbors like to come out and have a block party. So, this year I want to have a little something for all the kids. These were super simple to make. All I did was use my nestabilites star die cuts (the largest and following size.) Then, I made a 8 1/4 x 1 1/2 strip. I scored 1/2" on both sides and cut slits along the score lines. This will allow the strip to bend around the star. Adhere strip to star and then add your fireworks and candy. The darling little image used on this project is from Taylored Expressions Year of Sweets 2 along with the Year of Sweets sentiment. Well, that's all for me today but make sure to check out Taylor's blog before you go since she is having a huge moving sale! She has all the details on her blog.
Have a good day,
Ana
