Para Caty!!!

Hello everyone!!!. Well... my Christmas cards are gone... maybe I'll have one or two last minute ones but so far... I mailed them all!!!. Today's card is for my niece Catalina. She is turning 15 years old and for us "latinas" 15 is a very important milestone in our lives. I can't believe how fast that little girl grew. I used to hold her in my arms and she used to play together with my older son so sweetly. Now... she is taller than me!!!. A very beautiful woman!!!. I wish her all the best!!! And we love her and miss her very much. Here is her card:

Crafty Gals "CASE" Challenge!!!

Hello everyone!!!. Another month for the Crafty Gals challenges!!!. I LOVE this challenge, here it is:

Go back to the month of March on one of the Crafty Gals blogs. (you can get there by finding their dated blog archive in their sidebar)
It doesn't matter whom you choose. That is totally up to you. That's the fun of us guessing right?!
Find a project from the month of March on their blog and CASE it. Don't list who you visited on your Dec. 5th blog post. We have to guess. This will also be kind of like a scavenger hunt. We'll want to go look at the original "artwork" you CASED so we'll be visiting March blog posts of our GALS!!!!

OK... so... I can't say who I am casing.... You' can visit the Crafty Gals on my right side of my blog, go on their March projects and try to guess. This was so much fun, specially when you have so many great talented ladies in our group to pick from. Can you guess who I'm casing???. Here is my card... well with "HER" idea...!!!

 For this card I used:

Cardstock: Bravo Burgundy and Whisper White from SU
Designer Paper: O' Christmas Tree 12 x 12 pad from Recollections
Stamps: Snowmies from Whimsie Doodle digital stamps
Accessories: Snowflake die from MFT, Vintage Photo Distress ink from Tim Holtz, Copic Markers, Pearls from the dollar store
