Second, I want to apologize for the Wednesday Challenge! ohhhhhhhhh I tried real hard to keep my blog updated daily! but sometimes is really impossible! and I need to be realistic, so I can't do a commitment on posting weekly challenges because with this crazy life, I know that sometimes is going to be impossible for me, I'm going to try to plan ahead of time and post various challenges together with different dates and see what happen if I can't make it that way either! I need to give up! I'm really sorry!! about it!

Third! I want to share the last award I received, this one came from Lisa one my sister from the Angelhood! Thanks Lisa! I really apreciate it. I invites you to check her blog, she is very talented!! and have an awesome lil boy!

and last but not least! I need to laugh!! and share with you. I was working with this cards I need to do! and I want to be easy! you know what I mean? that sounds familiar? Well the thing is that I did them quite a fast! with a design on my mind, and it was 6 cards! and when I open my blog is more or less the same sketch of the last card I shared with you! It was sooooo funny!! I didn't even look at it!!
Hope you enjoy it!

Love,
Diana

Diana

PS Remember tomorrow is Challenge time!! have you done something for last week challenge? post it here!

My first time with 2S4U

I was reading for my Monday's class but I was getting tired and decided to do a lil bit of blog surfing just to not forget about creativity!! lol! so I visit a dear friend's blog and click on 2S4U link there (you know what I mean? I have visited that site before, but I was just doing a lil bit of excercise!! and went from a blog to another) and I said to myself, well you just get soooo creative that you need to do this sketch NOW!! Be sure to check the blog here, there are AWESOME sketches and awesome samples!

So here is my entry, hope you like it, I enjoy a lot doing it!! first thoughts when I look at the sketch was Angelee, but then I said it should be BRIGHT papers!! but at the end, I did it with ANGELEE (it was about an hour to decided to go with Angelee!!) I love the romantic touch of this TAC collection!

Diana

Thanks! and another card to share

I'm sooooooo happy to count with you in my life! is always a pleasure to read your comments!! thank you so much for your well wishes with the class and everything!! Is such a blessing to read your comments!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I want to share this simple card I did the other night! I was trying to come with a nice, simple, quick and economy card! (you know what I mean? just not to use that much stuff on it!) well this is what I came with! I used the new flower punch and super Jumbo scallop circle punches that TAC carries, I use some felt for the circle, the paper is Tutti Fruti and the stamp is Always Remember, I also used the Crop-a-dile to make the punches on the flower!! It was made in less than 5 minutes (I even cut the circle with my sizzix).

Hope you enjoy it! I'm planning on a new video tutorial so stay tune!

Christmas card and an Update!

I'm sooo excited!! yesterday we started our Homeschooling Year! and we did great!! lol. Girls are so HAPPY about it! is such a blessing that your kids love to learn with you, have fun with you and stay together more time!! I was sooooo impress that they want to start the school!! and they woke up early and did everything quick!! lol!

Well yesterday I started my Psychopathology, Human Development and Counseling class too! and it was really GREAT!! I like a lot what we discuss yesterday! it was so much fun to be again at the University! (I was kind a lost!! but well, it have being 6 years!! since I finished my MEd) I know that is going to be a lot of work, but I'm ready for it!! lol. The professor is awesone! He was one of the reasons I decided to take the class, if it wasn't him, I wouldn't be interested in the class, lol, yes, he knows it! I really like his style and he is really professional and knows what he is talking about!! I know I'm going to learn a lot, so if I decide to practice my profession (I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor) I feel I'm going to be better trained with it! I love my profession because I love to help others, that's why I enjoy so much to teach others the art of Scrapbooking and Stamping is on my blood, lol!

I want to say THANKS to some awesome ladies that choosed me for some awards, is really nice to have a break and want to go blog surfing and found some awards for you!! Thank you very much, here are the latest awards:












This are the rules (Estas son las reglas):

1- Add the link of the person who gives you the award (Poner el link de la persona que lo concede)Yesy y Cheyra

2- Write this (Poner lo siguiente):
"Everyone loves blogs, almost all blogs persue to show their marvelous creations and to make new friends; some people don't care when they receive awards and with this they choose to break those ties that we have try to create. Do you want to break this or do you want to spread them? if you want to spread them please pay more atention to that". ("A todas nos encantan los blogs, en la mayoría, sus objetivos son mostrar las maravillas y hacer amistades; hay personas que no se interesan cuando les damos un premio y de esta manera contribuyen a cortar esos lazos. ¿Queremos que se corten o que se propaguen?, entonces tratemos de prestar más atención a ellos.")

3- Choose 8 bloggers that should do the same and add this message: "I'm not going to be the one that breaks this award chain" and my I wish with all my heart the proximity that this award refers to... maybe my nominees are surprised but to honor this award and get to know you better, I really admires you... My nominees are: (Debemos entregarlo a 8 blogueras que deben hacer lo mismo y poner el texto: "No seré yo quien rompa la cadena de premios" ,y deseo de corazón esa proximidad de la que refiere el premio... quizás les sorprenda a mis premiadas pero, para hacerle honor al premio, y llegar a conocerlas mas... son todas lindas, y admirables... así que MIS PREMIADAS SON:)

Anita, Evelyn, Mireia, Zazil,Rita, Percy, Jany and Seleise

Also I got this award again (5 times nominee) from Jessica, Evelyn- Baby Boricua and Anita. Thank you very much for choosing me for this awards!! I'm really happy that you think on me for this awards!! Love ya!! so very much!!
