My Owl

I took a painting class this week and painted an owl for the first time. I loved the way it came out and I'm looking forward to painting more in different colors =)

DIY Initials Hanger

I wanted to make an anniversary/initials frame piece for my husband and I, and came up with something I really liked.

I went to Michael's to get the letters, burlap, twine, glue gun, wooden heart and paint, and found the background wood piece for 15 cents in the clearance section of Old Time Pottery. I made the ampersand from gray cardstock on my Cricut machine.

I painted over the original design (all I wanted was the wood) in brown acrylic paint

All the materials involved

Laid it out to see how it was going to look

Almost finished...just need to hang it. (I wrote in our anniversary on the bottom left of the heart)

All done =)

I'm back...slowly but surely

It's been exactly 6 months since I created my last card and posted it. After moving back to Orlando (home), it took us a little while to get settled in. But now that we are, I've set up my craft room and began. 

I feel a little rusty (and haven't had the time to really do them) so I noticed my cards are lacking the detail I'm used to. Here's the latest:

This next card was for my grandparent's 50th Wedding Anniversary. I personalized it on the inside so I didn't take a picture of it. 

I'll get back into the groove soon enough =)

Last card for the year.

Since I'll be moving to Orlando, I've officially packed up all my craft supplies and will be taking a hiatus from card making =( Hopefully not for too long.

This is the last card for this year and until I set up my workshop once again!

A Proud Puerto Rican on his birthday.

One of my favorite birthday cards!

This card is for my husband's abuelo (grandfather), a domino lover, from my mother-in-law. I absolutely enjoyed making this card and I loved the way it turned out.

To two different Michael's on their birthdays.
