January OCS

Happy Hump Day!!
I made this card for Mary my OCS partner this month. I don't know about you but I am in the mood of making Valentine theme cards... Red, Pink, White... you know "love" colors. So that is what I made Mary... I figure she can also use this for any other occassion.. it doesn't really have too much hearts in it. Well if you see it closely you will see them. I used Pink Cardstock.. a few leaves that I bought a loooong time ago and never really used them.. until Now! I used some bling to add to the hearts. The stamp hearts used are from Craft Smart and I bought those at Michael's. I love that store with all those awesome deals! The DP is from Three Bugs In a Rug. The idea from this awesome card is from a video I found on Youtube from Jennifer McGuire from Hero Arts. The design is called a slider card. You can check that out here. She also had another cool technique.
I hope my partner likes her card. I definitely will be making more like these soon. I just love this card!
Happy Creating!

Scrapbook Expo..

Hi Everyone!!
Guess what? I went to the Scrapbook Expo in Costa Mesa, CA and I came back filled with ideas and with bags filled with items that were such an awesome deal. Well my friend Jazmin and I took classes together. We took 3 and I loved the last class. Which I knew I was ever since I saw the title. The class was for a really cool technique. It's called... The Jacob's Ladder Technique.... It was such a great class.. thanks to Val who taught this class so well. Well I am going to share the two layouts that we did in that class. I didn't embellish them since we didn't have any time t0 finish them. Well the technique is still there and was the best technique ever!!! I really did enjoy this class. The other two classes were ok.. the first one was intereting but the second wasn't what I expected. The lady wasn't very organized and it was just not to par. Well anyway. I hope you like the pictures.

XoXo...

Christmas Cards

Hi there everyone!!!
I know it's really late, and Christmas is over.. but I am going to start posting my cards that I created during this holiday season. I don't know what it was this year, but I wasn't too much into the decorating like I am every year... I go out and make my home into a magical Christmas place... this year all I did was take out my Christmas pillows for decorations and some garland... and the Christmas Tree, that's it. I know i know it wasn't the same... maybe next year I will bring all of my items... well anyway.. I hope you enjoy this card. I used an angel stamp that I purchased from Michael's added some glitter, some rhinestones.. and I used some scraps for the dp. I hope you like it and have a wonderful Week.

Mini Album

Hi there bloggers!!!
Just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year!! I finally downloaded the pictures from my camera and I am going to share with you a mini accordion album I made for my mother's birthday... I made it with all the pictures of her grandchildren. She has a total of 8. It took me a while since I didn't know how it was going to come out. But she loved it and I was happy with the outcome. Thanks for stopping by....

xoxo... Claudia

Update...

Hi Everyone!!! Merry Christmas!!!
I hope every one is having a wonderful time with all there love ones. I hope no one is stuffing themselves too much.. Well anyway I was trying to upload all the cards that I have made these couple of weeks.. but guess what? The camera's battery died!!! Could you believe that? I think I might need to purchase a new battery for it too, it dies on me too fast.. Well anyway, I was looking in my 11K pictures that I have in this computer and found my first cards that I created.. there not cute at all.. but I have developed my artistic skills and have made decent cards.. I hope you like them, I didn't.. they are boring and have no type of "wow" to them.. Any way.. see you next time.. and Have a wonderful New Year's if I don't blog before that!!

Sorry no Card

Hi Everyone!
It's been a loooong time since I last posted something on my blog... I am soooo sorry.. I don't know what is going on lately.. there is soooo many things going on, besides being the holidays.. it's been very busy.. there are so many birthday parties that are quickly coming up.. there are holiday craft fairs that I need to go to.. (I love checking out the creativity of so many talented people). There was that crazy shopping day... I got a few items I wanted for myself.. I purchased a Sizzix... of course I havent' even used it with all that is going on.. Ohhh and my family and I took a short day trip to central part of California.. I live in Southern California.. It was beautiful and amazing.. And I still wonder how people can say that there is no God.. I am sadden to hear people say that after I see the beauty that He created for us to enjoy. Anyway.. I haven't had the chance to download my pictures that I have taken from the items I did create.. so I am going to post a picture of my children.. I have three adorable children and I am so Blessed to the mother of these three lovable children.. Happy Wednesday and talk to you soon.. Hopefully I will have more things to share with you.
