It's me again, my final post I promise :)))
Tonight I am spending my time posting my cards and not creating, it's a different enjoyment all together because I get to share them with you, and I get a chance to win prizes by entering my creations in challenges. There is so much out there to help my creativity flow, to inspire me, I want to thank you all for that!!
Here is my last set of cards!!
I fell in love with this color scheme, it's from Especially Made For You!! Isn't it gorgeous?
and this sketch, also LOVE it!!
As you can see I found the perfect color in the pattern butterfly paper. I just bought this pack of paper at Winners, SCORE!!! LOL
For the first card I opted out of a sentiment because it's just so sweet and delicate it can be given to anyone and I thought a sentiment would spoil that. I have someone in mind for this one too!!
The second card is a request from my neighbor, one of my biggest supporters..Thanks Jenn!! She has an engagement party in the middle of May and the invitation has the same blue and green colors on it, perfect!
I have entered the following challenges:
1. Especially Made For You, color combo challenge
2. Paper Playtime - anything goes
3. Stamp & Create, spring
4. Frosted Designs , sketch
Well that's it for me tonight! I'm spending the night with my hubby catching up on our sitcoms, a little laughter goes a long way!! We must laugh together especially after a long MONDAY!!
Have a good night everyone, and thanks for stopping by!
love & create ...with a smile :)

Hello,
So I found this Hero Arts stamp that I never used yet, bought it on sale at Scrapbook Centrale and well, I just thought it was the best thing a husband could say to his wife, take a look...
and the little bird is so cute!! Right?!?! I would melt if my hubby gave me this!!! Not to say that he doesn't tell me sweet things all the time, becuase he does ;))) I think it's something special when you read it on a card, it's perfect!! I had a few people in mind for this card, let's see if they buy it from me..LOL!!
I used the following sketch,
and I'm entering the following challenges;
1. Crafty Boots, use Yellow
2. Paper Playtime, anything goes
See you soon with my last card set of the weekend!! and yes I only made one of the above but I used the same paper combo from the previous post, I just loved it that much!!

More Kimmie Stamps!!
Hello again peeps!!
Does anyone like going to the dentist? I had a cleaning done today and I have to say I love the feeling afterwards but besides that..BLAH!! I really don't enjoy it...it's kind of painful and very uncomfortable, twice a year is too much foe me. According to Dr.Oz dental health is one of the most important things we have to take care of, so I guess you have to do what you have to do ;(((
OK now on to my next set of cards...
love & create ...with a smile :)

Golden Anniversary
Hello once again!!
I've been getting many special requests lately, this one is for a 50th anniversary and it's for an Italian couple so obviously it has to be in Italian ;)))
Here are my cards!
For those of you who are not Italian, Tanti Auguri is our way of saying Best Wishes or Congratulations.
I used a great pad of patterned paper from Winners and my ribbons are from the dollar store. I also just purchased this great border punch from EK at Walmart, very pretty!
Yes it's very gold and I'm not fond of gold but I think it turned out great and my client will be a happy with it. I made a second one with my cameo lady from Maya Road collection, I thought she would represent the gold well.
I'm entering the following challenges:
1. Tuesday Morning Sketches, for the sketch
2. So Artful Challenge, wedding anniversary
3. Hiding in the craft room, let's honor moms (with my cameo lady)
Well that's it for posting for me today, I will be busy creating and will post again tomorrow!
Have a great Sunday everyone and thanks for stopping by my blog for a visit!! Your comments are welcomed and appreciated, I love reading them!!

Champion
Good morning everyone!
I have been fighting a cold this week, feeling congested and stuffy along with my 4yr old, Mateo, who I think gave it to me :( !! He too is so annoyed by it and just wants to be able to breath, poor baby!!
I did manage to make 2 sets of card last night while feeling congested..LOL! I have so much fun crafting that I pulled through it..LOL!!
Here is my first set, a special request from my neighbor for her son's birthday!
Isn't he cute!! It's perfect for Oliver who is blond and loves to play hockey. And his dad always calls him Champion, which is Champ in English, so I thought it would be great to call him that on his b-day card!
This little guy is a digi from Digi Web Studio, I bought a whole bunch of them last week!
I also used a sketch from Deconstructing Jen, real easy and simple, so I'll be entering this card in their sketch challenge of course.
I also thought I'd enter:
2.. Craft your days away, challenge #44 just for children
3. Stamp Scrap and Doodle Saturdays, birthday
I will see you soon with more creations!!
love & create ...with a smile :)

First Communion
Good morning my fellow bloggers,
I was up late last night finishing 2 projects, I wanted to show you one of them this morning.
A friend of mine requested a First Communion card for her nephew, not an easy request but I found the perfect sketch for it, and had some cross charms, here it is:
It was tough to figure out a color combo for a boy. I had this great pack of papers I bought at winners and found this great pattern and matching solids, I think it turned out great!!
I'm entering this card in the Mojo Monday Sketch #238 and in The Paper Girls challenge, photo inspiration #6.
Have a good day everyone,
See you later with more creations

No Pattern Paper!!
Hi everyone,
I thought this would be a very cool challenge for me, NO PATTERN PAPER! I could use solids in anyway so I embossed, I punched out a border and cut out some flourishes..it was so much fun making these cards.
I also want to mention that the horse is a special request , isn't it gorgeous! so I thought that the same idea would work well with my vintage lady!!
Here they are:
My husband loves the vintage lady card, too bad he can't give it to me for mother's day...that would be weird..LOL!! Instead I bought myself a purse..smart right!!
I am entering the following challenges:
1. A Gem Challenge, sketch 44
2. Penny Black challenge, no pattern paper (actually I am not entering it because I should have used one of their stamps, so I will have to make more ..YAY for me!!)
3. Sassy Studio Designs, Flowers and Flourishes #121
4. Whoopsi Daisy, flourishes
Well that's it for me today, I will show you my other creations this week.

Indulge
Hi everyone,
Portfolio night was great! Emanuel was so excited to show us his desk and all the different work areas in his class. We are so proud of him!!
I started these 2 cards before leaving, cut out all my papers so that when I came back I just had to choose a sentiment and color my digi image (which btw is another freebie from Bugaboo Stamps).
I got color scheme from The Play Date Cafe, challenge 128. As soon as I saw the colors I thought of this cupcake girl. I also used the sketch from Retro Sketch #7. I will be entering this card in both challenges.
Good night everyone,
See you tomorrow
love & create ...with a smile :)

how BIG little things can be
Hello everyone,
I bought my first digi image yesterday just so I can enter this challenge..what can I say it's the competitive person in me!! I had so much fun with this little bug, it's the only bug that I don't mind being around!!
Here is my ladybug!!
I came across the sentiment in a Quote book, songs series and I thought it fit perfectly with my ladybug. I also wanted to enter it in a challenge so I killed 2 birds with one stone..YAY!!
The challenges I'm entering are:
1. Little Hands Challenge #12, for the bug
2. Stamptacular Sunday Challenge for anything goes
3. Freshly Made sketch for the sketch #31
4. Clear it out Challenge, for the song
5. Party time Tuesday for the Color challenge
WOW I even impress myself sometimes..LOL!! Seriously I am having a blast..so much fun and it takes my mind off of a lot of other things that shouldn't matter, and I know you know what I mean when I say that!!
That's it for me. I have a Portfolio night at my 2nd graders class tonight, not sure I will craft after that, you'll just have to wait and see!!
Ciao for now,
love & create ...with a smile :)

Hello everyone,
Just a quick post to show you a card I made late last night. I made it for my son's class mate who is turning 8.
I did use a sketch for this, it's Mojo Monday sketch #236, I'm too late to enter their challenge, but they have a new sketch every Monday so I better get to it.
See you later. I'm working on some great cards today!
