Life is Sweet


I got this image from Prima in my monthly kit from Coordinates Collection, I love birds and butterflies I think it's an addiction, can you go wrong with them ? I don't think so..
I have been watching like crazy videos from CHA summer, saw some cool things, my favorite so far is Pink Paislee and Prima.I also loved some things from 7 Gypsies specially some new shadow boxes. loved the new line from Donna Downey I love her stuff, I got her canvas book but still no time to work on it.
Here some channels you can see the new lines

Paperclipping4u (so far the best video quality)
TwoPeas (they were not on CHA floor but she showed the new products )

Su Die cut

Same again and some extra stuff





Please to details on this layouts go to Everything Scrapp'n Blog and my I have a new video tutorial there.


My friend Risa gave this awesome award, Risa thank you so much ! I always say that if I was really a good card maker I would like to cards like her , check it out her beautiful cards.


Last but not least I was spolightled as Fab Find again at Coordinates Collections, check it out !

We are having some serious thunderstorms here, but at least is not so hot like other places, I'm kind of sad that Snoopy is not getting better, and I don't want to change the medicine because the doctor said the old medicine has risks to diabetes. So, probably we will have to make a allergy test on him, I don't want to give this medicine. For now he is taking benadryl but is not doing much. :(

Projects and Video Tutorial

I have some projects today at Everything Scrapp'n Blog check it out!

Photoshop Playing

That's the advantage when you begin to learn PSE, you can pretty much look at something and figure and then just go to PSE and try it out, this picture is not perfect for me yet but I liked that somethings worked.
This was a busy weekend for us and I'm very proud how Lucas handled it.
In another note Snoopy is with allergies again and on meds. I hate to see him all red. Poor Thing :(
Hope you have a great week!

Life is Sweet Mini


This is a simple way to make a good collection of journaling spots as a mini album, I think this works great because you can have pictures on one side and journaling in other.I love this line from October afternoon - Hometown. I also will post this to my Etsy Store later today.

I forgot to mention that I was chosen again Fab Find at Coordinate Collections Forum,
I have no time to participate on forums so I missed when they put that .Shame on me.

Also Everything Scrapp'n Store is having a 35% OFF your entire order when you use the code SUMMER at check out. Great opportunity to check it out the new Jenni Bowling papers and new American Crafts thickers and the sale that still going on.

Another card

One more card I did for a friend a time ago. The cupcake is from Inque Boutique and the sentiment Close to my Heart (CTMH). I love cupcakes I think they are great to stamp, I love to color them.


I just saw this video from this new product from Quicktuz . Tell me what is the difference from this machine from already the revolution they have, from big shot, from Cuttlebug and Sizzix?
I tell you: NONE.
One more machine some people and websites will be talking about just to make people waste more money. As long you have no die cut machine this is waste of money because as I have many videos and youtube has tons, Cuttlebug, Big Shot and Sizzix (I have Big Kick from Sizzix), they cut all the dies out there in the market and emboss too.

So be aware of useless tools, lol

2month double spread

This is part of the 8x8 album for Lucas a more simple no journaling , to take around with me or leave at my house to show people after his 1 year old.
I'm a bit behind on this one but I don't worry because without journaling I can go anytime and print the pictures and do it.
I always worry with the ones I have stories I want to tell , because I want them fresh, and because I'm very bad at doing a notebook what I will force myself to do as my time to create is less each day and the memories just grow.
Anyway, the border I cut on cricut, also on my cricut the arrow on the right side. Stars papers from Making Memories Animal Crakers mini kit, the felt stars come in the kit also.
The left layout is a little turn to the side because I didn't put well on my scaner and I was lazy to scan again.

Also, take a look at some new products form Jenni Bowlin at Everything Scrapp'n she got some new cute mini bingo cards and some papers.
You can check all new products here.

I hope you have a faboulous week !

Card & Photoshop play

Today Lucas is 4 months, wow. it went so fast, but I have to confess for some things still so slow. I dream the day we can do more things with him and can go out for a longer period of time, right now he is a short napper and every 1'30 wants to sleep and eat.So, if we want to do something has to be in this time frame sometimes less sometimes more.But oh well, I'm sure he will grow fast.
I messed up a little with this card, when I was coloring, but my friend didn't mind if she ever notice because when the person is not a card maker, they don't judge details which is good ;)
The background is flourish stamps, sentiment stamp is from Brazil my friend Selma gave many stamps in Portuguese which I was soooo happy to get.
The heart is from this great set from fiskars that goes well with their heart scalloped punch.
And of course Magnolia stamps :)

Digital word art from Fei stuff oscrap.com


Guys I will begin to work on my newsletter today so expect this week.
Thanks
Jana

My sister Layout

I did this layout sometime ago, but just now had a chance to post. Background : I've used masking take with some acrylic paint.

Saw this video and gave me chills (ignore the first 5seconds)

This shows despite of all external things he was still the same MJ I remember watching the shows. The best performer ever.
