Silence make the real friends card

Hey everyone
Not much to say today so I go straight to the card, this is Silence cling stamp from Paperbagstudios I loved this stamp so cute !
The background is a digi paper from art nouveau kit. Butterfly punches Martha Stweart.

Also, some news PaperBagstudios digital designs will be moving to the Digichick, and because of that Paperbagstudios digital designs are having a 50% sale right now. Take advantage of that. the rubber stamps will continue at Paperbagstudios.com

And I have to confess just finished reading Twilight Saga, read all 4 books and less than a month.
Which is a miracle because I'm not a reader of novels, the last time I read like this was Lord of the rings. I saw the movie first and thought ahh too melow, but the book is so much better, and the movie made more sense. I'm actually sad to end the book I will miss Edward lol..

You should read ... and to complete my addiction bought the dvd as well LOL

Celebrating Layout+Blog Hop winner

It's been almost 4 months I did a layout with my body in a 178 lbs not recognizing myself, the journey seemed long and my objective was to fit on my jean pre pregnancy size 8. And this week to my surprise when I went to try them they fitted !!
I'm not completely where I want but now it's just a matter of toning my body.
I'm very proud I got that not feeling hungry or drinking miracle shakes. This is a short solution , I just controlled my portions, cut some carbs, changed everything to whole eat (just not rice my DH can't stand it) and eating more vegetables I are not junk food ppl, we don't drink soda, we dont eat potato chips and I barely do sweets . But bread was my sin and crackers, so instead of eating the whole package like I did in pregancy I eat 4 crackers or 3 depending on the calories.
I saw that we can get pretty addicted of eating even when you are not hungry. That's what I did when I was pregnant. But the miracle thing is is exercise because you can cut all food you want but if do not burn you excess doesnt matter.
I HATE exercise but actually after I'm done I have so much more energy.
Anyway, from 178 lbs I'm now 165 and Celebrating. My goal is 160 lbs.

Layout using Quirky Park kit

title from Taylor made designs

34 Layout

Hi everyone , hope you 're having a great weekend. We had a great time yesterday at a Portuguese Restaurant in Newark it was great food, great friends Lucas loved it too. After that we went to buy some Brazilians goodies at a Portuguese supermarket.
Anyway, I have so many paper layouts in my wish list to do that sometimes when you do digital it's just faster to do some extra layouts with feelings you don't want to forget. My recent birthday was perfect for that
I used Considering Ruby from Paperbagstudios, I love this kit soon I do a hybrid project with it. The papers are very artsy.
Thanks for stopping by !

Digital + Hybrid and live show

Hi everyone today is the debut of Art Nouveau kit by Collaboration of Roben-Marie Designs (Paperbagstudios) & Dawn Inskip Designs at DigiChick and its 20% off . It's such a versatile kit, has atcs backgrounds ready for you just to print and decorate, gorgeous papers and elements, great for cards, notebooks if you want to do a hybrid project, here is my take on it.

This is a notebook, from one of the papers from the kit
New document at PSE about 71/2 x8 " printed in a way that I did back and front of the square you have to see this according to your printer. Also, in the same document I put this butterfly from the kit changed the color going to enhance /adjusting colors and played with it.
After I printed I inked the edges, I used crackle medium on the butterfly fro rangers used some lace cut signatures and use stapler.
I will do some hybrid tutorials soon for you to learn this kind of projects.

Here is some of my digital images.

You put the sweet in my life

Hi everyone, hope you had a nice weekend.
Saturday was super busy for us, we went to a Italian fair and grocery shopping we got home like 6:00pm Lucas was a super trooper. I think he is getting used for the busy weekends.

Here's my first digital design as a CT member of Paperbagstudios I love their artsy products, because I like my digital pages to more like playful and artsy not a lot of journaling sometimes just things for me to enjoy and have my eyes pleased. But sometimes it does help to save time to do a regular page digital.
I used for this page

Merry Love kit
Special Thoughts Overlays
Be in Love Overlays

If you go to Paperbagstudios's owner and designer blog Roben-Marie you can watch some great digital videos and also some art journal videos.

There is also a October Stamp Challenge going on at their blog TAKE a LOOK. Just make any stamp project with a Halloween theme.

And Paperbagstudios will be our sponsor for this week at our live show!!

Thanks everyone that comment at my projects at Everything Scrappn blog.really appreciate.

JUDI W I need you contact me please send me a email 2worldswings@gmail.com to send you prize from the live show.

Thanks
Jana
