Quinceanera cards

A friend of mine ask me to design a card for her daughter. She turns 15. A very important day in the life of an mexican girl. Her dress is going to be yellow . I made 5 different cards to choose from .I hope there is one she likes. The "M" stands for Marbella.

Here are my drafts:

If she wants to include a picture ....

...and here is enough room for the invitation.

...and now, let the party begin.

Not quite ready yet, be patient!

The one and only card I made lately was a card using this photo. I taped it on cardstock and sent it to a friend.

Last week I was finally able to get internet and telefon connection . The container have arrived and the boxes are getting less day by day. My stamp room or my future stamp room looks the worst. Each box the mover didn't know where to put - they grinned and said ---> stamp room.

I think they were to lazy to go upstairs and drag the boxes in the attic .

Now , I have to do the job!

The other project we started was our patio. Almost done now. We ran out of bricks.

I hope one day I will be able to enjoy stamping. I miss my princess days at Chris' house.

I am moving !

I wish all our belongings would fit in this little wagon. This doesn't even hold all my stamp sets ;)

I'll be back later this summer.

A little something for you gift box

This little box is pretty easy to make.

Material :
three 1/4 sheets of SU whisper white CS.
two 1/4 sheets of SU baja breeze CS and ink
SU Top note die
SAB set Yummy
Baroque motifs
flower brad
adhesive
How to make it:
score all 4 sides of the white CS 1 inch.
cut 1 inch at the corners of the longer sides along the score line (4cuts)
fold all 4 sides up and glue it together.

Score all four sides of your second piece of CS slightly bigger (1 1/16") - this makes the lid.
The rest same as above.

Cut two colored pieces and one white piece of CS with your top note die.
Decorate and glue it together.

Princess day tomorrow

Tomorrow is our weekly demonstrator group get together.
We call it "princess day" :-)
Just a little escape , chitchatting and playing with our stamps...
This is a new image from stamp set I ordered called "Branch out". I love trees!
I already pre stamped my tree and used the Martha Stewart Butterfly punch to add dimension . Now I have to assemble my card and I'm ready to go.
Check back later to see the finished card .
