Have a Wonderful Day

Hi!  It feels really weird posting at this hour (11:38 pm), as I always do my posts in the morning hours.  Right now my kids are in bed and hubby is out with friends playing chess –yeah yeah, it’s Friday! — I’ve been pretty busy these last few days making projects for clients, and my classes,  among other stuff.    This is one of the cards the girls made at Tuesday Class.

The girls were really excited about all the cards we made and I loved watching them enjoyed every single one  (we made 3 cards).  This card is using retired Brontosaurus die cut from Sizzix (for the curious girls).DSCN4501

I hope you’ve had a great day … now it’s time for me to go to bed, have some resting and beautiful dreams.

Bye!

Baby door hanger

Good Monday y’all!  Did you miss me? :)   –Believe it or not I did miss all of you!  I had such a great time out of my dialy routine, enjoyed the “very” cold weather and the most important,  spent good time with family and old friends.  But I’m back and full of energy to start again … Today I’m going to show you a baby door hanger I made a few days ago for Papeleria Dume … isn’t it gorgeous?

Be Inspired #65 –Asian Theme Project

Hello my friends & welcome back! — I really hope you’ve had a very good end of year and had fun as much as I did with family and very close friends!!

Today I would like to share some happy news… :)  –A few days ago, Maggie from Cuttlebug Challenge asked me to join her Design Team, WOW!  … I felt really honored that she had asked me to be part of a group of fabulously talented ladies.   I really love Cuttlebug products,  so, how could I possibly say no!  –Here I go with  my first submission:

cuttlebugchallenge65-odettemartinez1

For this week, we were challenged to create an Asian theme project featuring white as the focus color using the new Asian Line embossing folders, a previous Summer release embossing folders or any Provo Craft Folders.  Since I haven’t got my Asian Line yet,  I used “Leafy Branch” embossing folder.cuttlebugchallenge65-odettemartinezcuttlebugchallenge65-odettemartinez2

I so love the simplicity of the card …

Thank you very much for your endless support and sweet words. It means so much! — Well, I hope you join us this week!
