A bit of Sparkle with Dazzle Versamark

Do you love some sparkles? Have you try the Versamark Dazzle? It's gorgeous!!! I turned a plain white cardstock into this, just scrubbing the versamark dazzle pad through it!! Then I added a bit of stickles to add extra fun, lol!! The set I used here is Awesome Blossoms from the Serendipity 2010!! and the sentiment is from Booko Blessings one of my favorite saying stamps and it's going to be retired, how sad!! The good news you can get until today at midnight with 25% off!!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

*************************************************************************************

Te gusta el brillo? has tratado el Versamark Dazzle? es fabuloso!! ves el brillo en el cardstock blanco? es simplemente cardstock regular que le pase la tinta por encima y le deja un acabado brilloso fabuloso!!! esto lo hice luego de estampar!!! al final le añadí algo de stickles por aquello de que si tiene brillo me dan 10 chocolates, jeje!! El set de las flores es el Awesome Blossoms y la frase es de Booko Blessings uno de mis sellos de frases favorito y va a ser retirado!! que triste, verdad? al menos hay algo bueno, tienes hasta hoy a la medianoche para ordenar el tuyo con un 25% de descuento!!!

Espero pases un feliz fin de semana!!

Love,

Favorite Tools: A Review

This weekend I had a meeting and we was just talking plain scrapbooking! While we were talking about anything and everything I noticed my passion for two awesome tools: Scor Pal and Bind it All. I love everything I use and I don't buy anything I don't feel passion for it (well just sometimes, lol), but I want to talk about this tools because they are so versatile! I love to create boxes for everything and even when I had the Expression and the Tags, Bags and Boxes cartridge, I love to do them with my Scor Pal, I love that I can just design it as I want to and I love to design them. I also love the embossing styles you can add to your cards! Is an amazing tool!! that you can buy with confidence and if you want to add something good to your inventory get one of this!

Some projects and templates using the Scor Pal

I am also a mini album lover so for me the Bind it All is a required tool! (DH bought the blue one for me and when the pink one came out, I sold the blue one (with DH permission, lol) just to get the PINK one! because I love pink!) I love the professional look that this tool add to my mini albums and needless to said that I do mini albums, mini note books, post it note holders, calendar and so much more including bind some projects for DH! I even use it to punch cardstock or paper to use in my cards, it gives a great look! is amazing how easy this tools works and how much I use them. Because you know that sometimes we buy tools that sit in our studios without been used once! I highly recommend the Bind it All.

Some projects using the Bind it All

Next time you have some spare money to invest in a NEW tool that you can use over and over, think about the Scor Pal and the BIA. Remember with TAC you can host a FUNshop, Catalog Party, be in one of my Hostess Clubs and get these at half price, ask me more! I will love to help you out.

The project here is a Post it Note Holder I did using the Bind it All. I sent this project to the hostess of one of my online hostess clubs! I used TAC Black and White download papers, Black and White Ribbon, DCWV Chipboard Stacks, Booko Blessings and Elizabeth Embelishments, hope you all like it, specially my hostess!

Love,

Scrapbook with the FREE download

As you may know I host a scrapbook challenge once a month on Paper Wings Angels Only Forum, so yesterday was my day and my challenge was to use our FREE download paper to do a Scrapbook page! you should also use our amazing stamps to get that pop that we always want on our pages, but keep it simple and fun! Most time people are scare to scrapbook because they think is a lot of work or you need to embelish every inch of your page! and is not true! I want to preserve the treasures of my heart in a fun and simple way! The main goal is just to preserve your legacy, your memories, not to do fancy pages that you can pay more atention to the embelishments than to the photo! so here is my sample! I love those three sets and together with the FREE download paper that TAC is offering us! these are awesome!!

About the picture! yes, that was a Fantastical Fun moment, it was at Seminar 2008 when Mischelle and Cathy was giving me my crown for Star Recruiter! We laugh so much! but I can't tell you what was about, what happened at Wichita stay in Wichita, so if you are an angel and have the opportunity to go to Seminar this year, I will say go for it! Is so much fun! Can't wait to see you there!

Go here to get your Free paper and go shopping with me to get this gorgeous stamps, that I am sure you will use over and over: Edge Designs, Graphic Blooms and Booko Blessings! and don't forget to get your TAC Grab bag!
