Revealing My Projects!!!!

Hola Bloggers! I'm so excited to bring to you the projects that I've been working on.....Woo Hoo! They are Exploding Boxes but not just an oridinary exploding box, this has a different twist....the front panel is a window...you can now see inside of your box! :) So if you build a scene like how I did on these, you will now be able to stare inside when it's closed up.....I made these three Xmasy but, the possibilities are endless! I have so many ideas floatin thru my head. I will admit it was time consuming on the Gingerbread Box and the Chimney box...adding the little details always is, but I am so happy I chose to go that route with them. I have put up a vid showing in detail these three boxes that I've done. Hope you all are having a Groovy Scrappy Time and always...thanks for taking the time to stop by! Peace!

Oops almost forgot....here's where you can see the video on these, just click HERE! :)

I've been so inspired by Gingerbread men, houses...anything that has to do with that tasty lil cookie! :) And I've also been inspired by freezing my buns off...so putting the one scene together that I did made me feel all warm and cozy...at least for the time I was creating it. lol Going to clean my area to start on the third...hope you all like the pics that I've posted. Hasta Pronto! :D And hope you all are keeping warm and creating mucho! Peace!

My New Adventure! :)

Hola Bloggers! Stopping by to tell you some EXCITING news!!!!! I and my bestie Susi have put our CRAFTING minds together to start a blog where we can share ideas, projects, tips, and everything related to paper crafting and crafting in general....we are so happy to start this new adventure, and for our premiere, we have come up with 12 days of Christmas! We have 12 projects lined up to share with the blogging world. Starting Dec. 12 thru Dec. 23 there will be a project to share for those days. I'm bursting thru the seams to tell you all about them...so if you click on this link here you will be directed to our NEW BLOG!!!!! YEAH!:) And there's more...we will also be having two giveaway's....one from Susi and one from myself.
We have been planning this for awhile and it's such a great feeling knowing that something we have planned for is now becoming a reality! We hope that you will stop by take a look around and join us for "12 DIAS DE NAVIDAD CON NANO Y SUSHI"; "12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS WITH NANO Y SUHSI"....I bet your all wondering who is Nano and Sushi...? Nano and Sushi are our nicknames from childhood. Susi is "Sushi" and I Linda am "Nano" :) We hope to see you there! Feliz Navidad Bloggers! :)

Who Would've Thought.....

Hola Scrappy Bloggers! :) Ok...I can't believe how giddy I am right now after putting up this new "blogamation" Santa on here...OMG...talk about being in the spirit of Christmas! I think it's just Awesome to see Santa wiz across my blog page like that. LOL....so the reason why I am posting today is to bring you followers another project that I completed not to long ago...it's a Christmas mini that is a lil bit out of my comfort zone...I used Echo Park papers for this mini, it was last year's collection...why do we throw away those lil strips and forget the name of the collection...AYE...sorry about that. lol...I love the colors in this collection, the dk. browns and the deep reds...I love Echo Park, they have some cute collections. The mini is the album from a few years ago that I had in my stash from the Michaels dollar bin. Most of the pages are a pocket page and holds journaling cards from the collection...which to me makes life a whole lot easier to craft with... :) Hope you enjoy the flying Santa and hope your all having a Great time creating! Mucho Hugs and Merry Christmas! Oops...if you have any questions about this mini please feel free to leave me a comment.

Hello Fellow Bloggers! How is everyone? Hope all is well with you all.

I've gotten all my GF tags done and I've gotten some really GORGEOUS tags from my fellow swappers...I have to say this is one of the best swaps that I've ever been in, everyone has put in 110% of themselves into their work, and I Thank each and everyone of them. :) I'm hoping that I will get a computer soon...because I would love to do a vid and show you these AWESOME pieces of Art!

LOL...Big Hugs Everyone! :)

WHOA!!!!!

Hola Bloggers...I've wanted to keep up with my posting and wouldn't you know it...my computer has gone bye bye... :( my hard disk drive burned out and I lost everything on my computer...music...pics...vids...I'm trying to adjust of not having a computer right now...and let me tell you there have been a couple of day's that I've wanted to go stir crazy! My poor kids and hubby if they get in my way!!!! LOL just kidding! I think... :p

So I'm here at my dad's using his computer and checking on stuff...if I remember...I will post once in awhile, I hosted a tag swap with a bunch of AWESOME ladies...using Greeting Farm Stamps...I've gotten some of the tags and they are just TOO FLIPPIN CUTE! I will be doin a video on them...using my son's laptop...hope I can figure that out! LOL...Well my Scrappy Bloggers until next time...Hope your all having a Scrappy Awesome Week! Peace!

PINCUSHIONS!!!! :)

WHAAAAAAAAT! do you say?...I know this is nothing scrapbook related (kinda sorta)hee hee! I made these easy to make pincushions over the weekend...and I had so much fun in doing so. They took no time at all. My favorite one is the egg shaped one. I stiched the yolk using just a straight stitch and the around the egg I used a balnket stitch. I adore how it came out. I have another mushroom one I'm making in a brown polkadot fabric....it's coming out darling. And as for the scrabook part...you could use these to store your stickpins that you use in your pages. Now the ring one is more for pinning fabric together...but it was so cute I just couldn't help myself, it's too cute for words. Well that's all for now, hope you all have a Great Week, and always thanks for taking the time to stop by! :) Adios for now my Scrappy Friends! :) If you would like to see these pincushions upclose, just click on them. :)
