Primer Blog Hop Latina Crafter

Saludos y bienvenidas al Primer Blog Hop de Latina Crafter. Comenzando hoy 6 hasta el 8 de febrero tendrán la oportunidad de visitar talentosas chicas que se han unido al Equipo de Diseño de Latina Crafter para inspirarnos con el tema Amor y Amistad: Tu amistad es una bendición.

Si aún no conoces Latina Crafter te invitamos a pasar por la tienda. ¿quieren saber más? Latina Crafter nació en junio del 2011 con la idea de ofrecer al mundo latino sellos en Español y con esta idea y todo su apoyo Latina Crafter cuenta ahora con 40 sets diferentes y más por venir en las próximas semanas!! Es por esta razón que decidimos hacer nuestro Primer Blog Hop para celebrar la amistad, acompáñanos en el recorrido y no olvides dejar mensaje en en el blog de Latina Crafter y en todos los blogs de las chicas participantes!! Además, estaremos regalando un certificado de $50.00 a Latina Crafter entre las que dejen sus comentarios en el blog de Latina Crafter y también en los blogs de cada una de las chicas del Equipo de Diseño!

Para las que no saben, Latina Crafter es mi pequeño negocio y por eso decidí participar también desde mi blog personal, que hace tiempo no lo actualizaba con mis creaciones.

Primero les comparto una notita para una amiga especial, en esta usé el Digi Gratis que regalé a todas las participantes y también usé dos sets adicionales: Feliz día del amor y Mi dulce amiga.

Luego hice un set de mini tarjetas, las que me conocen saben que me encantan!!! y para este usé el otro DIGI Gratis que regalé y el set de Feliz día del amor, me encantan esos corazones!!! Además le di un toque especial con el twine que me gusta tanto!!!

Si estás siguiendo el Blog Hop debes haber venido del blog de Arte Scrap by Diana
Estas aquí ---> Diana Maldonado y ahora te invito a visitar el inicio en el blog de Latina Crafter donde puedes ganar un certificado de $50.00 a la tienda!!! Si este es tu primera parada, ve al inicio y has todo el recorrido, de segurlo lo disfrutarás.

{TAC} Chicks Day #5

I am sooooo sorry!! I scheduled this post for last Wednesday and when I found out it was supposed to be this Dec. 14 I changed it but didn't hit the publish and was here as a draft!

For today's post I did a simple clean card featuring a sweet set that I love and didn't have the chance to buy it!!! I have this stamped images from Seminar where we were allowed to stamp images to create!!

I have some news to share for those TAC lovers!! TAC's inventory and images were bought from a fellow angel and in January they are going to open an online/retail store, so be on the look for that!!! Congrats to Pam for acquiring this wonderful company and keep them alive!!

But sadly that means we only have 2 more posts for the {TAC} Design Team. A blog hop (Softpencil & Phyllis Harris) Saturday, December 17th and the last post will be December 28th. The goal of this design team was to keep Angel Company's images out there.

So go and check the rest of the team creations, you will love what you will find!!!

{TAC} Chicks Day #4

This is the last day for November {TAC} chicks team posts!! but the team is getting ready for December already and we have everything lined up, so be sure to come back in December to check what the team is working with, I am sure you will love it!!

For today's card I used a color combo that I {love} Pink & Brown! The image is from a set called "Spanish" Seasonal cuties or "English" Seasonal cuties since it was available in English and Spanish as well. It was the second "Spanish" set from TAC since I was with the company, they had another one before but I wasn't by that time, so for me this was the second!! The sentiment in this card is again from "Mis frases favoritas" (My favorite phrases) by Latina Crafter

Don't forget to visit the chicks!

I am using one set that is NOW available in Mabelle's Etsy Store here!! I have to admit that I cheat a bit, lol!! This image was colored by my sweet daughter!! Oh please don't tell!! When I decided to do the card for the hop I got busy helping them to do cards for their uncle so I took that image and did my card, lol!!! Don't laugh, probably she is not going to laugh about it! I did the cloud background with chalks and the card using the Latina Crafter's First Sketch!! The paper is also designed by Mabelle R.O. I just love her!

Now some exciting news!! there is Blog Candy for this hop!! so be sure to participate!!

Blog Candy: One winner will receive 2 digis from Mabelle's Digi Etsy Store! The winner will be randomly chosen from those who link a TAC {only} Mabelle card/project.

A new card! about time, right?

Have you see the Latina Crafter's images? they are designed by Soft Pencil Studios and I know you will love them!! Here I used the Christmas House image without the snow!!! I have some friends in Puerto Rico that told me they wouldn't use that one because there is no snow there, right? but I just did the trick (not inking the snow) and there you have it! This is a quick card (I was ready to go to the postal office and I have everyone looking at me while I was trying to do it, lol) so, it's easy and fun to do it and there is no coloring for those that told me, but I don't color, lol!! Hope you like it!

Do you want to use the snow and color the image? go here to check my daughter's card on Latina Crafter, it's sooo cute and the best part as she said: "this is an option for those that need to do a ton of cards, easy peasy!" isn't she adorable?

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

Ya has visto las nuevas imagenes de Latina Crafter? son diseñadas por Soft Pencil Studios y estoy segura de que te encantarán!! Aquí usé la de Casita en Navidad pero sin la nieve!! Tengo amigas en Puerto Rico que me dijeron que estaba linda, pero que no la podían usar pues allá no había nieve, y es cierto!!! pero aquí la usé sin ponerle tinta a la nieve!! y listo!! Esta fue una tarjeta rapidísima (estabamos ya listos para irnos al correo y tenía a todos mirandome mientras hacía la tarjeta, jeje) así que me tomó solo unos minutos y bajo presión!! fue divertido y fácil y además no colorié para las que me dicen, pero yo no coloreo, jeje Espero te guste!

Te gusta la nieve y colorear? pues te invito a pasar por aquí para que veas la tarjeta de mi hija en Latina Crafter, es tannnn linda, jeje!

Saturday Spotlight!

I am sorry I didn't post anything last Saturday, I can tell you I have been busy with Latina Crafter my new line of Sellos en Español, specially now that I added Soft Pencil Studios design to the line!! But I manage to do a card the other day using a DIGI! So today I decided to "Spotlight" Mabelle's Digi images! Yes, I am not that good with digi stuff, but when I found this one made by my dear friend Mabelle, I have to give it a try! and I used one of my new sets ("Dando Gracias"/Giving Thanks) for Thanksgiving day! Hope you like it! and if you want that digi go to Mabelle's store, tell her I send you!! she is such a great friend! She has a lot of good stuff there and I know you already know I love Mabelle's designs! since TAC is no more, you can get her stuff in her store, I have receive a lot of question about what are Mabelle's fans are going to do now, but don't panic she is still designing and soon she is going to have rubber too! **wink**

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

Siento mucho que la semana pasada no tuve mi "Saturday Spotlight", les cuento que he estado super ajorada con Latina Crafter mi nueva línea de Sellos en Español, especialmente ahora que le he añadido imagenes de Soft Pencil Studios!! Pero manejé hacer esta tarjeta con las imagenes digitales de Mabelle, asi que el "Spotlight" de hoy son las imagenes digitales de Mabelle! No soy muy fanática de las imagenes digitales, pero tan pronto vi esta de mi querida amiga Mabelle, tenía que hacer una tarjeta, jeje! usé uno de mis nuevos sets llamado Dando Gracias en alución al Día de Acción de Gracias! Espero te guste y si quieres esa imagen, te invito a pasar por la tienda de Mabelle, dile que te envíe!! ella es una amiga super especial!! y tiene bellezas allí, se que ya saben que me encantan sus diseños, y como TAC cerró he recibido muchas preguntas de que harán ahora para conseguir los diseños de Mabelle, pues no se preocupen, hay Mabelle para largo, jeje! pues además de sus digis pronto habrá "rubber" **wink**
