Sending smiles….

Hello friends:

It’s been a couple of weeks since I haven’t post anything; yep a lot of things happened in my life this past weeks. My step-daughter is pregnant, she is only 19 years old and she is moving in with us. And, sadly one of my aunts was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer; unfortunately 2 weeks later she passed away so all my family from USA and Mexico came over to say good bye to her. But, what can I do?…. just keep crafting to keep me sane.

I come today with a great news… yes..!!! I was choose to be part of a new DT…. yes, I’m part of Lulupu – The Craft Lounge that is located in India, yes, as you are reading it!!! I’m so exited to be part of this talented group of ladies from the other side of the world.

This month's Lulupu's Challenge #14 is about our Logo colors with a twist to use die-cuts or Digital Die cutting too. I made a card with our Logo Colors and I used my Silhouette Cameo to make a Hot Air Ballon which is  cut file from the Silhouette Store. I used the 3D foam tabs to make it look like in 3D.

With your SC can make cards very easy and fast!!!! I love my machine!! I love what I can do with her!

To make the clouds I used a negative cut of the cloud which is also from the Silhouette Store of the Pot Gold Bag Topper  and distress ink using the ink blending tool of Tim Holtz that comes very handy. I love the effect!!

The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn which I stamped with Neon Hero Arts Ink. Hope you like it and above all gives you some inspiration!!!
