CHRISTMAS TAGS

yes tags made in cross stitch, love the die cuts that let me to combine techniques the I love , like doll making and cross stitch , ah and wood working,

these believe or not are very easy to make , and the easiest is the ornaments is for that I made them in rainbow colors because when I make the first one I said to myself , this is fast and easy I can make several of them , and yes I did

I being working very slowly lately maybe because my thyroid is crazy and I feel no energy, but I will go on I love to do what I do so much, because for me is therapy and passion .
plus also is a busy time of the year I suppose to be in a diet , but I have a lot invitations to breakfast and lunch the my diet is almost not more , maybe in January I will commit to it better , but I won say no to a hallacas ....hallacas is a typical dish from Venezuela and is delicious is one of my favorite food ever , and I only get to eat it in the month of December, just one month a year , well I have to eat and put my diet on hold .

back to the tags
I put pictures of the patterns , with not color chart because you can change the colors , just remember the lights color and the dark colors to make your choice , plus remember the stitch always in the same direction . I did the tags matching the colors but you can do mix match and also add more embellish.

well use your imagination and create
thank you

TRI-FOLD CARD

this time of cards are so much fun to make , because you have a lot space to express your imagination  well this time my imagination look like a Christmas tree full of ornaments , and I wish I could add more , I love Christmas tree when they are full of ornaments of all kinds.

Christmas is a beautiful holiday month, but also very busy , tomorrow I have a breakfast/secret Santa , we are going to steel the presents from each other , I don't know if this happen to you , but to me it happen to often , I always always get the worse present , I think I still playing for the Christmas spirit ...will see what happen I will post a picture of what I get , the good thing in this secret Santa is the all of the present have to be for body ,hair and face care , probably I will get a soap I hope it smell good ,I will give a kit of care from a store call NATURE REPUBLIC , they sell beauty items from Korea and I bought some for my self and they smell super good and they feel super good you have to try the body oil with grapes .( this is my personal opinion) they don't even know I bough something there hahaha.

back to the card
this trick-fold cards look complicated but the only thing you need to make one is have to card base and glue the together one backward , in this one the front of the card is part of the inside , but that is not necessarily . you can do a front of the card that do not have anything to do with the inside .

and like I said before I love cards and the bigger the better

well , you know use your imagination and create.

FAST CARD

this stamp set is adorable and super easy to color , I still learning how to use my comic markers, but I think I see progress

Is very good idea to have several sets of stamps already stamps and colored to go , that way your cards will be done a little bit faster, and you enjoy the precess the same way, sometimes I need a "emergency" card and I need to start everything from the scratch, but I believe I will have more relaxing afternoons just stamping and coloring . You can even stamps the same image several times and colored in different colors to apply to the card you want to make in that moment . just something to keep in mind.

Today here in Saudi Arabia is Thursday , I love Thursday because is our Friday , tomorrow is our weekend , the only down thing is the in Friday nothing open until 4:00 pm ....boring mornings , but I wake up late ...thumbs up to that.

Well you know this ...use your imagination and get creative ....ah and practice you coloring....NOTE : to myself and everybody he he .

  

 

Example of four bears I colored 

A VERY SIMPLE CARD

I made this card thinking in the lamps I have in my kitchen, and the ones I have around the house , decorated just for the holidays , in the card I place the amp in a white glitter paper background , well after I check the card I should not add the background , because the lamp is clear in the four sides ...well the real lamp , I just let it go because I am only human , plus I am homemade not hallmark , but if you do a card like this one are my mistakes in consideration ...well lets not calling mistakes , lets just say I love glitter and I just want to used that paper .

well I hope you like this card even with all the die cutting and the layers is super easy to make , and you can add the shaker element .

I being a little bit slow in creating cards , maybe because I am on a diet ...is because I am going to a party on december 7 and I want to wear a dress that is a little bit tide for me right now , hopefully I will get on the size that I need to get inside that dress.

Back to the card , , remember if you make something like this I think it will look better with not glitter background , only the card panel , also in the video I said night lamp , I mean to said street lamp . but well if you watch my videos before , you know my english .

this are the lamps around my house the ones hanging  in the kitchen I keep them all year around, the others just for christmas duh Gabby.

VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

This card have the traditional colors of christmas, but when ZI was doing this card I was thinking the maybe I want to try sometime less traditional , and maybe for my next card you will see pinks and purples, will see how it goes because purple for me is the most difficult color to combine except in halloween

Thanksgiving  is coming soon and I don't have anything ready to make because I don't own anything related to that day , but I will challenge myself and I will used my imagination and I will create a card...and after that the pink purple Christmas .

well I hope you like this card it fit perfect in the large office envelop and you just have to cut the letters the decoration around the card can be anything , presents , candles , bells , ornaments  or all at the same time .

PENGUINS

well I start with my holidays cards , my hands where itchy to color this penguins and is for that reason I add the frame of four because that way I can used them all in one card , plus like I said before I love big cards I thing my favorites are 6x6 or 4x8 they are easy to cut and find envelops
I went to Darcie's web page and she have sooo many new stamps sets I want them all I love them the stamps are so cute and the price is very good , I just wish they have the die cuts , maybe some day

sorry in my videos I keep changing the format with the music and everything , but I feel the I still on training wheel with youtube videos , plus my knowledge of filming doesn't help at all , and my english is not helping I might make some videos in spanish , like I always said ....will see .

for now just remember to used your imagination and create.

CALENDAR BOOK

I made several of this for the caravan craft and was one of the things that sell faster and people like it a lot I plan to give some to my son teaches , I think is a good gift to keep on the desk , is a little bit of work , but is so much fun, I love prepare the papers and the stamps for each month ,
About the caravan craft it was ok , not good not bad , was fun and I get the opportunity to meet a lot of people, but a little bit of gossip ....the friend that was helping me change some of my prices and I didn't like it because is my first time doing this and I think is better to sell cheaper and more and not put high prices and sell a few items , I understand the she has a good intention but I am the one that make the items I should be the one to put the prices...well thats what I think. will see if I will participate next year .

I hope you like this calendar and try to make one because is so much fun , and you can keep one for you , I want to make one with coffee theme and one with the leading ladies , lets see if I find some time .
