Some birthday gifts

Summer is going by soooooo fast! I start teaching summer school on Monday and I'm really excited to meet my new 6th graders at Ochoa Middle School! This weekend is Boat Races weekend here in the Tri-Cities, WA! Of course I decided to go to an Art Fair at Amon Park in Richland and got to hang out with 2 good friends of mine instead! My husband Eric and his brother Troy are having more than a blast over there by the water!

When I got home, I had the urge to keep working on some amazing birthday gifts! Oh My! July has thousands of birthdays! My sister, lots of close friends, my mom-in-law and in the beginning of August, my dad and my niece Thaís that live in Brazil. I worked on shadowboxes (or scrapboxes if you prefer) that I love! Check the pictures out! I hope my creations inspire you!

My amazing mom (in-law) is getting a magnetic board made with a metal board decorated with scrapbook work and a beautiful little magnet that complements the whole design! For this creation I used the Close To My Heart stamps "The Best Things" and the Cricut coordinating stamps for the Art Philosophy Cartridge!

Here is the magnet that makes the magnetic board even more interesting. It is a mini frame.

My dad's frame with our last picture taken in Brazil! I can't wait to see him soon!

Our 2nd Anniversary scrapbook & Colombian Crafty Club

Good night everybody! I've been really into my 2nd anniversary scrapbook. It will be a collection of the pictures we took on our 1st anniversary (which were not taken by Jessica Raymond and consequently do not have that amazing photo quality...) as well as our 2nd anniversary and maybe our 3rd and 4th if there is space!

The pictures I've been using on the pages below are from our 2nd anniversary and I've really enjoyed scrapbooking on them. I used the beautiful Close To My Heart Stamps. The specific ones used on these pages are: Card Word Puzzle, The Best Things, Pemberley Workshop and Love Clusters. Some of the ink pads used to ink the paper were the Indian Corn Blue, Desert Sand and Cocoa. Just absolutely simple and beautiful!

Close To My Heart workshops! The Colombian crafty club met yesterday and we made a photo pin using the Close To My Heart Pemberley paper and a simple and adorable page using the Florentine paper. We used the inking technique to give our pages a more detailed look. We all had fun, ate some good finger food and got ready for our next meeting on August 7^th at 5 p.m. Wanna join us?
