May happiness be our destination

Hello friends.  As some of you already know, I had to leave to North Carolina since April, 23, due to a family health emergency.  I have been away from everything and living through a very unexpected and stressful situations. I have found many people along my way who have helped me in a way or another, and today, closer to being back home, I must say THANKS.  My daughter is better now and out of the hospital, friends and family had stepped in to help in many ways,  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I am posting a card I had stored in my laptop and with it, I want to wish happiness to every Good Samaritan found along this arduous path.

PPA 38 Sketch Challenge Welcome Baby

Hello! This week Sketch was design by the talented and admired Margaret Moody.  I wanted to give the card a rounder look. I am using one of the Simply Stampin' kit in SU's Clearance Rack.  The card was very easy to make and involved no stamping at all.  Visit the Clearance Rack and take advantage of this fabulous offers while supply lasts.

Mojo Monday 133

I almost did not make it!  Here I am posting Mojo Monday's challenge on Sunday night.  My grandson was home this week-end and when he comes, all my time is for him.  My husband took him to the park to play baseball so I took advantage of the quiet time and completed some cards.  Now that he is gone back to his house in Mayaguez, I am finally posting!!

 

Colors and more colors

For different taste there are colors!! My favorites of today are not necessarily my favorites of tomorrow but I thank God for my senses and for the ability to see in color. Sometimes I get up wanting bold colors and light all around, some other days I prefer dim light and soft colors.  Guess my mood today!! LOL

Mojo Monday 131 When Life hands you lemons

Hello friends! It's been a while I have not post projects in my blogs. It is not I have not been busy...It was my camera!! But with a borrowed one, here it is my Mojo Monday interpretation:

March Pals Hop: Spring Time

Welcome friend and visitors! If  you've hopped over from Kalshelia's blog, I am stop number 17 on the Pals Hop  and you are almost at the end of  the road. I am sure you have found a lot of beautiful projects and inspirations for your Spring and Easter projects, and wait until you see what Carla have in house for you!  Your comments are SO VERY APPRECIATED!!! Please, leave some love along your way!

As for past hops, I have prepared three projects also.  I do not want to make this a practice because I not always have the time, the energy or the inspiration to do the three, but I always end by doing them, but well, I was happy doing them for all of you so here they are.

 I made the card, the embellished candle and the matching box for the candle, all using papers from the Sweet Pea paper pad from the Occasion Mini that I find a Super-Duper Value.  All those beautiful two sided papers!!.  I found the project pretty spring-y, after all, in Puerto Rico, were I live, we have no really marked Seasons, all year long it is green and warm! But my husband....he told me the colors were not Spring-like.  I really appreciate his sincerity but I already had made  my projects...so, I had to made two bonus projects just to ease my conscience and please him, after all, if I ask for his opinion, I should be able to hear what he has to say, don't you think?  Both ways, you win, more projects to get you inspire no matter how you visualize Spring!

 

The card is made with papers in the free paper pad "Welcome Neighbor" from the SAB set, bitty buttons and gross grain ribbon.

 

The treat box was made with the BigShot machine, the Pillow Box die, satin ribbon, oval punch, "Ocho Saludos Geniales" stamp set, Word window punch, Designer label punch, Sweet Pea DSP

And now, don't forget to stop at Carla's blog, you will not want to miss it!!
