8 days!! and a tip for scalloped cards
Wow, tomorrow is DECEMBER!! what a great time!! I love December don't you?
Well the hint for today is CRICLEs!!It can have circles but if is in a circle shape!! you get double tickets!!
EL tip de hoy es CIRCULOs!! Puede ser algo que tenga circulos, pero si es en forma de circulo tienes DOBLES tickets!!
Here is a tip if you want to make a scallop-circle card like this one! I cut the card with the CM system, then I use my scallop circle to cut all the way around but I cut a scallop at a time, yes is not that much fun, but it works perfect and the card looks great!
Hope this help and you can enjoy as much as I do, doing scallop-circle cards!
Have fun and share with me!!

PS I am going to work on my All about gift kit! I am almost done so I can share with you later!
Coaster Mini Album tutorial - A simple and gorgeus Mini album!
What you need:
5 square coasters (I used 4")
6 square pieces of pattern paper (4")
Adjustable Drill Press* (Optional, but you can save time and get perfects holes!)
A ring, ribbons and embelisments.
What you should do:
1. Add glue to coasters and then add the paper pieces. You should glue one piece of paper to each coaster, except the cover coasters that should be cover both sides!
2. Add the photos to the remaining spaces (4 photos if you are working with 5 coasters!)
3. Embelish your album and cover.
4. Using the Adjustable drill press, or whatever tool you have on hand to do holes, make the holes to all coasters on the same place. I do so at the top left corner.
5. Add a ring and some ribbons if you like.
6. You have a perfect gift for any ocasion.
***This tool is awesome, I used it a lot, is worth the money. You can make a hole to lots of chipboards at the same time!! is just perfect! Plus if you buy $50 in products you can have it as ½ price item if you do so before Nov. 30 and you can get a Level A set too for FREE!!, contact me for details***

Can you imagine...
Tonight (well it was around 1 am) I was thinking that I should go to sleep, but I have not post anything for you (the ones that e-mail me and call me that you check the blog every morning!!!) And I said, you can NOT go to bed if you do not have a message in your blog!! LOL, maybe you are laughing, but it was real!!
So I decided to post a preview on something I have being working lately but have not finished yet!! (I just need to do some minor details!) This is an album that I won at TAC Seminar!! and the papers are designed by Mabelle Ramírez, and I won those too. So I get some awesome pictures that match perfect with that collection and I know that you are going to like! So last week I was talking with Rosalyn, my BFF, and told her, you know what I have to work with the album that I won at Seminar, is going to be 5 months and I was sooo crazy about it that I can not believe I have not work in it yet!! So I decided to take the album with the papers and photo and start working! (If you know me you know that I am kind of bipolar, so I work about 3-5 projects at the same time!) Since I am working with my Christmas projects, plus some tutorials I do not want to show the album until I finished, but I feel forced to do it, *wink wink*
Have a great day! Today my parents are coming so I am not going to be here until night! hope you do not miss me! I know that I am going to miss you!
Love,
Diana

Quick and easy!
Hello,
I still having fun, but now with you!! I have received phone calls, comments and e-mails asking me how can I get to do all the stuff that I do!!
First! I do not sleep!! LOL, now seriously, my DH is in USA and I can not sleep without him, LOL, sincerelly I am a night person, remember the McDonald's TV commercial? I can go to sleep at 2 or 3 am and get up at 7 and have a normal day! but if I go to sleep at 10-11 I can not get up early!! can you beleive me?
Usually during the day I do homeschooling with my girls, so when they are working on her papers or tests I have a lil notebook where I write all the things that I have to do when they go to sleep! Sketches, plans, a list with the materials that I am going to use, that way I just work! Since DH is not here, when the girls go to sleep (if I do not fell asleep with them like on Monday) I go to the workshop to get my stuff done! When DH is here I spend time with him before come to work, so I have less time to work but GREAT time with him, LOL Hope that can help you to create more even do ours days only have 24 hours!
Now for the Stamping stuff!! I did this two cards for a Technique team I am, the technique was Matchbook Cards and this were my two samples! Hope you like them! I did them in about 5 minutes each one, only using stuff from the table!!
Love,
Diana

I owe you!!!
I know, I know, I was supossed to add the instructions for the inside of the Coaster mini album. But since this is one of the projects that is going to be feautured on my "All about gifts kit" I am going to share with you the steps, but not the complete tutorial or hints *wink, wink*
What you need:
12 squeare coasters (4" X 4")
Wide ribbon (about 20-24")
Paper collection with tags (I used three DC and 3 carstocks and some pieces)
Stamps and ink
Embelishments
Scallop scissors
First: follow Nichole's challenge insturctions for the cover
Second: cut 9 pieces of 4" X 8" cardstock and score them at 4"
Third: Glue the coasters to the cardstocks as this: fold 1st piece of paper at 4" then attach one coaster to each side, then attach other piece of paper to the coaster and so on, like doing a sandwich.
Fourth: When you have glue all the coaster to the DC pieces you can start working on your album (Maybe you prefer to do so before glue it, is optional) Remember to round the corners!! I did that with a scissor.
Fifth: When you are done with your album (I did it simple!! just some tags that comes with the collection, some square boxes for journaling, I stamped the lines from the Punctuation set, a lil bit of ribbon, a flower, stamps and more stamps!!) you can glue it to the cover. To do so, you have to put your album inside of the cover and look where is going to be better to place it (You can try to open it while you hold it together) it can not be at the cornes you have to do it aprox. 1/8 from the sides.
Sixth: Embelish your cover and you are DONE!!
If you need some clarifications, please send me an e-mail with your request.
Love,
Diana
PS This is not the collection that comes with the kit, the collection is Merry Wishes! so the pictures here are slightly different from the one on the kit.

I have FUN today!!
Today was a great day, even do I am still missing DH!! I worked with the girls in school have Spaguetties for lunch (they Love it!) then my DF Rosalyn called me and we met at Starbucks - YUM-O!! (Just to say hello and trade something!! of course that we have some coffee, shhhh it was my first time with a VENTI!)
Then we arrived to the house and my oldest daughter was thinking on a day that we were working on something and we need her to take care of the lil one, DH asked her to teach something to her as a teacher!! She was the BEST teacher on earth!! (She was 3 yo and she "reads" a Bible story and talk to her about God, animals and plants! and of course that I took my camera and have some pictures for a Layout! They were so happy!! and today she was thinking about that and I took my Scrapbook to show the lil one the LO (she was 7 months or something like that!).
They asked me to bring all the albums and have some time to share them. It was so much FUN!! and that is what SB is all about! What a great time reading the journaling and enjoying the LO's but the funniest thing was that my oldes daughter told me, when she start with my first album (2000): "Mom this album is not that amazing!! like the ones that you do now" and I started laughing and she said: "What? you have to understand that those were your first pages" I have to tell you that I enjoy a lot with them tonight! And that I love SB now more than yesterday!
Here some questions for you!
How many times you look at your scrapbooks with your kids or family?
Lets start on the basic: Do you share your works with them?
Do they enjoy it?
Hope you can find sometime to share your albums and to have FUN time with your family! I can tell you that their happy faces worth all the money that we spend on this and also the time!

Diana

I was trying to ...
I was freaking tired last night!! I just went to bed with the girls and I fell asleep!! When I realize that I was sleeping!! and I have not done the dishes or anything in the kitchen, I woke up and ran downstairs. I did the dishes and clean the kitchen and then I have to stop by my workshop!! because I need to clear the working table. So I did this card while I was doing it!! Do you understand me? Then when I finished I realize that the table was disorganized again!!! It's a mess!! I do not understand why? because the main reason to come to the workshop was to clear the table!! CAN YOU BELIEVE ME? LOL, I know you can!
I did this card with the scraps from Amelia kit used for the Coaster mini album! I used Angelosity Sketch challenge for this!
I used: Amelia scraps, stamps set and gold embossing powder.
Hope you like it!
