Happy

Hi everyone!  Well I finally got hold of a piece of 7dots studio paper!!!! Of course I had to join in their fab new challenges on one of my favorite topics animals . I'm using Blue Fern sketch and chipboard as well

Don't you just love seeing those happy faces. I get to wake up to this two beauties!

I loved the way the paper handled all my textures!

Hello Summer

Well pretty exciting day as I discover I can blog from my phone, LOL!!! The app is pretty cool, thank you blogger!

Ok on to business as I Will share a lot!

Here's my entry for this months sketch at 

Blue Fern. 

I absolutely fell in love with these two pieces of chipboard and had to have them together!  

Prepping them was a lot of fun too as you can see!

There's gold and there's a pretty coral color inspired by the gorgeous accents on Authentiques paper!

Can you see why I left my photo outside the circle? Absolutely beautiful crystal clear waters in the Caribbean I tell you!

And the "petite diction" for the seaside paper line complimented everything so well!

Here's the sketch in case you want to play too!

Thanks for stopping by!

One must have sunshine!

Hi! Welcome to my sunny corner. Last Friday I took a day off to spend it with my daughter at the beach. If you follow me on Instagram there's even a video of the waves rolling there @milagroscrivera   The mood board at Scrap Africa is very earthy and I was inspired to work with the pieces of wood and the shabby cabin there!

Here's my interpretation

Now for some details

I'm using real wood embellies and I left them raw for the mood board

I'm also using some real shells we collected at the beach 

Here's the mood board for your inspiration if you're inclined to play!

Thanks so much for stopping by 

Milagros

Thank you so much for this everyone!

Bloom Flowers Jewelry

Hi Bloom fans Milagros here with you! 

 today I am taking you off the beaten path into other crafts...

I love jewelry and wearing unique pieces is so me!

So today I am presenting you a super cute and very easy project you can do with your Bloom Girls metal flowers!

Can you spot them? I love the weight and feel of this piece and I get so many compliments every time I wear it, you see my wardrobe is mostly black.  Maybe it's Neiman Marcus words of "women who dress in black live colorful lives"

it sums my style, I love color specially over black,

Now gather your supplies and head over to Jamie's blog!
