Happy Birthday!

Hello readers:
Today I want to share with you this fun card, that was inspired by a "I would like to visit this place one day" moment. I keep telling my daughter we have to take a trip to a nice, relaxing place like Arizona or Utah... I heard they have the most incredible Spas with a great view. So in the heat of the moment I created this fun birthday card. Hope you like it.

I used stamps and coordinating dies from Lawn Fawn: cactus "stuck on you", turtle "year two", cake "year three" and stone "critters on the savanna", faces from "love you a latte". Mountains from Pretty Pink Posh, Happy birthday from Simon Says. I color the images with Copic markers for cake, turtle and stone. For background I used Distress Inks.

Well, hope you have a great day! :)

I'm Back!!

Hello readers:
How are you? Hope you are doing great.
I need to apologize to you for not keeping up with this blog. I have many excuses (trust me) but I don't think that you want to hear them. Any way, I want to share a very nice picture from my visit to Mom in Mexico City. Hope you like it.

This magnificent archeological site is in the city of Tula de Allende in the state of Hidalgo in Central Mexico. These are the Atlantean warriors figures of the Toltec Empire located at the Quetzalcoalt piramid. If you have a chance please check the story of this city in the History Channel "Ancient Aliens". Or if you have a chance to visit Mexico, please don't forget to check this beautiful site.

Changing gears! I would like to show you a very fun card that can be perfect for a Mom to be at Easter time.
