Nautical Theme Invitations …

Hey y’all!

Sorry I’ve been away for a while… it’s been… hectic.   I’m still working on many stuff at the same time, PLUS I’m packing all my stuff,  we’ll be moving to a new house soon :)

In the meantime I’ll show you one of the “many” invitations I’ve been working on these days … This birthday was celebrated at Boca Marina Restaurant, Boca Chica (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) a few days ago.

The theme for this party “of course” was Nautical, as the Restaurant was located just next to the beach.

I really thank all my customers for trusting my work :)

Be back soon!

I Am Still Here … and Will Be Back Soon!

Good afternoon everyone!

My apologies for being lost for so long.  Please know that I’m still here, I still pay attention to my blog and all my sweet-craft stuff.

Most of you know that I make invitations (even though I am a graduated Accountant).   Right now I need 3 extra pair of  “my” hands because I have so much work pending … that needs to be finished,  but this is what I love to do, this is what I enjoy doing.  I thank God because my husband supports our house expenses and I can go on with  this small business I call  my own :)

I’ll be back very soon with much sweet and new stuff!!

Love you all,

Odette

Hope you like it and thanks for your sweet comments!!

Sweet Lil’ Princess

Good morning everyone!!

I’m so happy to be here with all of yo today :) –I know I’ve been lost but it’s for good reasons.

Half way through the week already, and this means today is Cuttlebug Challenge.  For today we had to create a project using photos, and since I’m very short of time I made my own photo project (I had all my supplies at home and at hand).

This is what I came up with…

For this challenge I used my beautiful cuttlebug butterfly die instead of using an embossing folder.  I just love that butterfly!

That’s all for today! I hope you join along in the fun with CuttleBug Challenge Blog and give this theme a try! For complete details, please visit our challenge site. DO NOT forget to visit ALL the DT girls as well! Once you have your creation photographed, be sure to go to Cuttlebug Challenge Blog and post a direct link to your project on our site. If you upload to on online gallery, please be sure to label your project as Cuttlebug Be Inspired Challenge #84.

Thanks for looking!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Hello friends …

I’m popping in quickly today to wish you all a Happy Mother’s Day!! –It is truly a special day for me personally because I have the most wonderful mom … she means the world to me.

I feel so lucky to have you  in my life dear mom!   And I really BELIEVE that there’s nothing sweeter than loving our sweet angels and being loved in return …

This is an amazing quote I found about a mother, it is from Fredelle Maynard …

“Beyond all lessons, beyond the model she provided, my mother gave me a parent’s ultimate gift:  she made me feel lovable and good. She paid attention; she listened;  she remembered what I said.     She did not think me perfect, but she accepted me, without qualification.”

Love you forever mom!

Cuttlebug Challenge

Good morning all!

After a few days lost I’m finally here :) –with a new project I made for the Cuttlebug Challenge Blog.   For today Maggie asked the DT to make a project to show how to express thank you to mom.    Since mom is always around the house cleaning the mess kids make, gardening, cooking etc., what best way to tell mom to take a rest than this …

It’s always good to take a break on the go and taste life just the way it is …

I’m short of time today, so if you want to play along with us just click HERE and to see what the rest of the design team girls made, just click HERE too.

Hope you like my project and thanks for leaving a comment! Love you all!

I’m Here

Don’t worry everyone.

I’m here and doing okay.  I just discovered that I need a life outside of blog land sometimes :)     –but I’ll be back with some fun posts soon though … so don’t worry!

All Boy …
