Circle Journal!!

Ola Amigas,
Estou participando de um projeto diferente no Grupo do Yahoo Scrap Lilac que estou adorando!   Estamos fazendo um Circle Journal onde cada uma das participantes escolheu um tema para o seu album e cada participante fara uma pagina do album de cada integrante do grupo!
Em vez de utilizarmos nossas fotos no album, estamos utilizando as imagens da Tilda dos carimbos Magnolia para nos representar!!  Vimos uma circle journal deste jeito no Clube da Magnolia da Yummys de Curitiba e ficamos enlouquecidas.. Como amantes dos carimbos Magnolia tinhamos que fazer um deste tambem… 
A unica diferenca eh que moramos em Estados diferentes e por isso utilizamos os correios  para enviar os album para a amiga…  So iremos ver todas as paginas quando todas tiverem completado o circulo, ou seja, cada uma tenha feito cada pagina de cada integrante.
Bem e com isso estamos curiosissimas para saber o que cada uma tem feito, entao, resolvemos que iremos postar apenas a capa do album para matar um pouquinho a nossa curiosidade..kkk
O tema que escolhi para meu album foi Minhas Viagens pelo Mundo…
Entao segue a capa do meu album para voces verem:

O globo e a frase foram cortados na minha Silhouette que comprei na loja online da propria Silhouette.
A imagem eh a Travelling Tilda e a mala com placa são dos carimbos Magnolia e foram coloridos com as copic markers.
Na frase Journey, Travel, Adventure eu coloquei glitter da Martha Stewart. Flores sao da Prima Flowers.
Espero que voces tenham gostado da capa do meu album.. e para voces matarem a curiosidade do que as outras participantes fizeram,  eh so clicar em cada nome abaixo que voce sera redirecionada ao blog respectivo.

Anyways, last week I realized that I don't have simple thank you cards, I mean,  I wanted cards with no Tilda or Bears as images.. Cards that can be given to anyone in any occasion.. I didnt think the cards I had in my stash would go well for that particular occasion.

So I decided that I'll make those kind of cards from now on.. well, I used a butterfly in this one, but I still think this is appropriate for a thank you card!!! .. so I'm happy.

Take a look  at my card:

I'm pleased with it. What do you think?!

Here are the materials I used to make it:

• spellbinders: classic and scalloped circles
• rhinestones: recollection
• cardstock: K&Company

• embossing powder: EK Sucess
• stamps: Inkadinkado

Renaissance Gilli!

Hello Gilli Girls,
I bring a card for you today for the embossing challenge at House of Gilli.
This is my first time playing with Renaissance Gilli stamp.. Could not believe, I have this stamp for such a long time and had never inked it up.
Take a look:


For the embossing challenge, I have embossed gilli and sentiment images. Take a closer look at the embossed image and sentiment:

I inked gilli image with versamark and then embossed with black embossing powder..  I really liked the effect as Gilli looks shining. Sentiment is from Stamping Scrapping Designs. this stamp matches perfectly with spellbinders which I used to cut the heart shape. I placed my Gilli on the cardstock cut with nesties.  I colored the gilli image using copic markers.
Pearl chain, flower, cardstock and ribbon are from my stash.

Flowers to You!

Hello Friends,
I made a card today for a swap I joined in one of yahoo groups I belong too. I had to make this card with a embossed technique.. we were supposed to emboss the image with black color, color with marker afterwards and do some sponging around the image aftweards.
I had trouble finding the right image for this.. I wanted to make it with a butterfly at first, but when I saw my cute forever friends teddy bear, I changed my mind.. well, I also decided to make the card in a smaller size because the image is small..  now that I’m used to 6x6” size cards, smaller cards look funny!!  lol
so here goes:

still cute, isn’t it?
here are the material in this card:

• stamp: forever friends
• copic markers: RV09, RV06, RV04, E33, E53, E51, YG63, YG61
• embossing powder: EK sucess
• ink: versamark, EK sucess
• rhinestones: KC
• heart 3D sticker: Craft in Cratin`
• cardstock: K&Company
• stash: flowers, ribbon, doily

These are the challenges I`m entering my card:

Happy Scrapbooking Day!

Hello Friends,

Happy Scrapbooking Day!!!

To celebrate this date I decided to make a digi scrapbooking page.
I had absolutely no idea how to make it...  so I download few freebies and make this page, take a look:

Last year my Friends and I went to a Friends` house who lives in the city of  Brasilia, capital of Brazil.

Since I was kid I wished to go to Brasilia to see all what I learnt on the books. 

So this day was a very special one!

Anyway, let me know what you all think about my ever first digi page!

Thanks for stopping by!!
