HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all those special women in the world.
I love this quote:The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.
She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.

Well guess what???

I finally made a card after so many months. I'm still working on my colouring technique but had so much fun making this mother's day card for my special mum. I also need to work on my stitching. lol

As much as I would love to make more of these cards I feel I need TIME. I'm entering this card in
Just Magnolia and hAnglar Challenge  -  Anything goes with the option of stitching   
Stamping Sisters in Christ - all things beautiful - ends 14th May

Thanks for stopping by.
Blessings,

Hi!

I cannot believe how time flies!
I have been looking at many wonderful blogs and tutorials on copic colouring techniques, entering a few candy giveaways and practising my colouring with copics...but I still haven't made anything :(  I feel frustrated because I don't have all the colours to complete colouring a stamped image. I'm slowing adding to my collection of copic markers and Magnolia stamps. I recently purchased 2 digital stamps from Make it Crafty and received my first order from Magnolia (spring collection 2011) about 2 weeks ago. I am inspired every day by such creative people who keep posting all these beautiful cards constantly.
I just visited Angelwood's Crafting Corner...you might want to check it out if you haven't already because she has 2 talented kids and amazing candy to give away (check out my sidebar).
I will make time to finish a card and hopefull post it soon.
Thanks for dropping by...

Be blessed,

Adriana

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!!

I know the month is almost over (lol) but I wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year!
I haven't been on because it was frustrating me that I couldn't add other peoples candy to my blog.
But thanks to Lydia who helped me now I want to start using my blog more. I haven't even made any new cards because I've been so busy preparing for a children's conference, reorganising rooms in my house and getting ready for my youngest son to go back to school. But I definitely want to start making cards, especially after watching Zoe from Make it Crafty. Her colouring techniques have inspired me even more.
I just wish I had more time to view all these incredible blogs out there.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!

This is my first Christmas card using a Magnolia stamp.


Here is a closer view...


...and here is another version using the same stamp.

I made only four because I'm just learning to colour with copic markers and also started very late.
Hopefully next year I will have mastered the skill and be more organised.
Hope you like them  :)

Hi, welcome to my post!

I have spent ages just getting this far in my blog creation. I have seen some beautiful blogs and am working on creating one that is fun to visit. I'm sure with time, I will improve :)
I plan on posting my craft creations in the near future and hopefully some tutorials that have helped me.
