My way of living

Love yourself

I started to stamp, doodle, paint, etc. to cut this out and stick into my journal, then decided to add a photo and make a LO but not sure about it, still thinking to cut it.... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wow!

After all these months away, so many things....... I sold my house (I don't have a new place yet....sigh...), in 2 weeks my DD Valentina finishes University, my son Felipe finishes school and I'm getting older.....LOL!

Well, this is all about isn't it?? I haven't scrapped so my last "Restarting" was a real fail, I hope to do it next year after all this craziness.

Talk to you later!

Love!

Restarting

Hi my friends!

I'm restarting to scrap again, yay! I've been invited to be a guest designer in a Spanish blog  Pasión por el scrap and to create my own sketch. After almost 5 months without scrapping and never have designed a sketch, it was a real challenge.

I asked some of my SB.com friends to help me in this task and they were there to do it. So many thanks to:

Cheryl Nelson

Luzma Bruna

Debbie Weinhold

Barbara Ghigliotty

Betty Kimbrel

Sarah Kimbrel

Girls, you are the best!

 

Special thanks to Mauri and the bloggeres of Pasión por el scrap, who invited me to participate in this great adventure. You can check their blog even if you don't speak Spanish, it's very inspiring!

 

You can make a page using this sketch and leave a message on the blog with the link of your post untill April 27th.

 

Me voy a permitir escribir en español por esta vez para las amigas de Pasión por el scrap. Espero les haya gustado el sketch que creé para ustedes y quisiera agradecer su participación de antemeno.

Mil gracias a Mauri por haberme invitado y a las creadoras de tan espectacular y didáctico blog, María-Helena, Lourdes y Mercedes.

This my take on the sketch

 

 

 

My advices

I thought I must scrap my own advices now (for myself).

Puerto Varas (Railroad)

This is me in Puerto Varas visiting an old railroad station. (South of Chile).

I feel the earth

The journaling was inspired by the song "I feel the Earth move" (Carole King).

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Oh baby When I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh darling I cant stand it
When you look at me that way

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Oh darling When you're near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that, My emotions
Are something I just cant tame
Ive just got to have you baby

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down

I just lose control
Down to my very soul
I get hot and cold all over

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
tumbling down, tumbling down...

My gift for Mother's day

This video was my daughter Valentina's gift for Mother's day. I hope you all enjoyed your day as I did!

Unfortunately, the audio has been canceled by You tube.

My last project

Here I am sitting and cannot believe I can upload a photo of my first Asian project. I've been dreaming for ages to do something like this but I wasn't very confident to do it. Finally my daughter Daniela, took me to her art teacher and voila.....it's framed!!

I'm very happy with this first attempt and this will give me the confidence to try more techniques and to finally alter some stuff like books, boxes and more. Now I'm trying with a little frame, well, it is a surprise!

 

Having fun with "the witches"

After 30 years of friendship, we still meet every month and have fun like teens.

My family

Since I started this blog, I've been wondering why I didn't write about my family. The answer is that I created this space to show my work and I thought it might be more "professional". Isn't my family my first concern?? Yes, it is!!! So let's forget about all those thoughts and I'll show my "life priority".
I have 3 beautiful kids. Daniela who's 24, Valentina 19 and Felipe 14.
I won't leave my "woman" side and David is the main part of it.
These are my girls and my boy....
