BLACK GRAY & WHITE


I just love black it's actually my favorite color, even thought I love it sometimes people think making cards with black it's just very gruesome Causing repulsion or horror; grisly, extremely unpleasant, causing great horror, but I just don't see it that way I think it's elegant tastefully fine or luxurious, gracefully refined and dignified.
I didn't have to paint it at all, just some shadows, and yes it's a frame card which are my favorites because of the size and you can add a little something something inside it candy, chocolates, a git, or even some stamps???
Another frame card more simpler.
Love swirls and butterflies

BABY VICTORIA & BABY MARIANNE

ANOTHER WAY TO LOOK AT THE BABY BUGGY
WITH JOLEE'S AND ONE WITHOUT
My cousins wanted as a gift for their almost born baby princess Jolee's and a scrapbook, so who else was going to get the perfect jolee's and scrapbooking kit, well ME of course i'm the only one in the family that makes scrapbook and cards.
After the baby shower of JOJO & LIZ, we made a list of the most important dates of a baby's first year, first and for most the pregnancy, the baby shower, the delivery, baby's first sleep, baby's diaper duty, baby's room, baby's first food, feeding the baby, baby on a stroller, baby's first tooth, baby's first feet, baby's first trip, baby's in grandma's house, baby's ok ok ok you get the idea.
So what I made was a baby buggy inside it has all the great jolee's for my cousins JOJO & LIZ

CONGRATULATIONSSSSS VICTORIA IS BORN

September 15 Mexico's Independece day, well everyone celebrates in their way so I can only say how we partied last night, it was hilarious, my Grandma Conchis started telling us stories when she got COURTED by my Grandpa Ruben it was so different times it would have been fun to see her, she got married at 16 years old he was 28.
We had Mole it's a Mexican dish from alot of traditions, Andrea, Blanquita and me made it, but it was a controversy because we like to vary, each one wanted to do it their way, yes WOMEN!!!
My BF gave me a great idea for the recipe to add fried bananas (platanos machos) inside the tortilla, now let me tell you the sweetness and the mole it's just an amazing whoaaaaa in the mouth, and the cream with the fresh cheese really MOLE it's my favorite mexican dish!!!!
Chiles En Nogada, love these chiles they are stuffed with 2 varies of meat pork and beef, almonds, pine nuts, pecans, fruits, with some spices, pepper, salt, ohhhhh yeah it's that good, now the nogada is the sauce on top which is made with cream, walnuts, pecans, and some secret ingredients, and then pomegrante seeds mmmmmm yummm.
Carrot cake yes ZEROOOO 000000 Mexican dessert but what can I tell you it's just delizzz of course my recipe who doesn't think their cakes aren't the best???

LEO'S BABY BUGGY

MAIL (my aunt in law) is going to be a grandma, she is soooo cool, so FIL asked me to make sure I make a cute buggy but very different than the other one I had made last week, this time more exclusive and more unique, well if his name is going to be Leo that's a Lion in the horoscopes, so why not a Lion and better yet a BABY LION!!!
I added a bigger Lion to the box where you put the money for the baby shower
MIL made the flower arrangements, so we added a Lion to the flowers to have the theme going
All of the Lion items a baby buggy, the card is a baby bottle with the lion theme,
and another box, for all the baby shower gifts.
A closer look at the baby bottle

BABY BUGGY

Well something must be in the water, because all of my friends are getting pregnant or had a baby this year, so I have been busy making alot of baby buggys, and they have become the hit of the delivery rooms.
I had to make a card too, using the same baby boy stamp, now doesn't that look like a great gift.
Instead of candy we added a little plant, so the mom to be will plant this for her baby at the same time he is born, I heard it's a tradition somewhere around the world, when you have a child you plant him or her a plant or a tree so they can grow together.

THERE WAS A WEDDING..........

Nope not mine but my dear little bro and my sil, they are married!
Who MADE the cards meeeeeee
All the paper bought and pre-cut for each little thing and let me tell you it's alot of work.
I thought this was a cute idea for the cards but it's in english and all the other stuff is spanish, and the bride doesn't like spanglish, so nope no cuttlebug for these cards.
This is how they looked from the inside
The RSVP invites
I had to add a stamp, hey I do have a collection
60 CARDS wooohooo finished
This was an option for the bow, but the sil, wants it turquoise,
and in Mexico it was a very berry hard color to find!!!
But voilaaaaa I found a similar colorrrr and the bride to be is happy so I'm happy
just need to finish all the other things of the cards gotta go I'm doing in them as we speak.
