Margie's Creative Projects

After a Long Time of Absence

2011-05-14T20:35:00.000-04:00

Hi everyone,

I would like to thank everyone who kept me in their prayers. After the dead of my father last year it takes me a lot more to come back.

It's until now I saw the Quickpage Contest at Coolscraps Digital website that stirred the emotion to start creating layouts again.

Thank you for all the followers who love and also care so much for me.

I made a promise to participate in the contest and become the same enthousiast scrapper I was last year. It may take some time, but I'm confident that with all the wonderful eyecandies that you always have delighted my eyes with, I will be able to get back to the scrapping burning fire again.

Big Hugs,

Marvelous Monday at Shelly's Images!

Uplifting News

2010-10-10T07:51:00.000-04:00

Hi fellow crafters,

Thank you so much for the condolences and the lovely support
you showed to me and my mom. All the comments received are so greatly
appreciated.
I promised my dad that I will take care of my mom and I'm keeping
my promise. :)

I'm still in the grieving process for the loss of my dad, but the need
to be creative and to start creating Hybrid Projects and Cards makes me
start back next week.

It will help me through the difficult time and being positive is what I definitely need.

There are still some things that I need to take care of this week, but I'm so glad
that the things are finally going on the right track and what still needs to take care of,
aren't so much anymore.

I would like to share a verse with you:

"The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer."
1 Peter 3:12

Thank you so much.

Hugs

Sad News

2010-10-01T17:45:00.000-04:00

Hi fellow crafters,

It's with deap sadness I'm writing this message for you to know.

I've been away for a month, because of the illness from my dad.

We were called by the hospital Thursday at 4'oclock that he is very weak and that he isn't going
to make it until the early morning.

My dad passed away yesterday at 5 o'clock in the morning.

Please keep my family in your prayers during this difficult time.

I would like to thank you all for all the support and love you showed to me during this difficult time.
I so appreciate all your support and lovely comments.

Hugs,

Margie

What is happening?

2010-09-15T22:25:00.000-04:00

Hi fellow Crafters,

The reason why you don't see many projects lately, is because my dad is very ill.

He is so ill that it makes it impossible for me to craft the last 2 weeks.

I'm helping my mom and I'm doing everything that needs to be done, like running errands and such
for my parents.

That's why I ask you to be patient with me, that I will be back Crafting and Creating new projects as soon
things are back to normal in personal life.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Product Review- Crayola Colored Pencils

2010-06-28T08:34:00.000-04:00

Product Review Monday

Today the Craft Product I chose is Crayola Colored Pencils to color any printed Digital Stamps.

The Colored Pencils from Crayola are fabulous for any Art Technique you would like to experiment with.

I blended the colored image with the Clear Stamp Solution to clean clear stamps from Ranger Company and it gives my image a smooth finsihed look.

There are more Art Techniques to experiment with.

Just go to Crayola's website for more fabulous tips!

Have a fun creative week!

Finally back home

2010-06-14T15:32:00.000-04:00

Hi Everyone,

After many weeks I'm finally back home.

I haven't created a new project, because of many difficulties with my health,
but now I'm feeling better I'm so eager to get my hands on some goodies I received in the mail.

That's why you haven't seen a Product Review on Monday the last month.

I hope to get back to it next week so you get some new insights on some products
that would be worth trying out.

Have a wonderful week.

Hi Everyone,

I'm a bit l;ate posting it, because I had to go through my favorite tools to find a product to talk about today...LOL

Well, I found one that I would like to highlight today!

Today's Product Review is about Clear Stamp Cleaner from Ranger

The Positive Points from this Clear Stamp Cleaner:

Easy to use
It cleans any polymer clear stamp or Acrylic stamp thoroughly!
Just wipe off the excess from the stamp and you can already store it away!
It has a dabber top.

Negative Point:

1. It has a strong scent

Have a wonderful creative day!

Some Behind the Scenes Projects

2010-04-28T16:06:00.001-04:00

Hi Everyone,

I've been working behind the scenes on projects the last few days.
I created 3 projects until now.
I still need to finish some other projects. :)

I was at the hairdresser today. I so needed a new look and well, I was happily surprised with
this new look.

A friend calls me with a last minute Notebook order for this weekend.

I need to finish some projects and I've been really busy with
housechores and you all know with many unexpected happenings.

I will work more with schedules so everything is as early as possible posted on my blog.

Now you see, that's why I've been a bit quiet since Monday, but busy behind the scenes. :)

Have a great day!

Product Review Monday- Archival Inks

2010-04-26T09:30:00.005-04:00

Hi ladies,

I'm a bit late with my Product Reveiw this morning. There was a project that I needed to finish. Now I finished it....I'm like....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh....now it's time for the Product Review!!

Today I'm going to point out to this wonderful Ink---Archival Ink by Ranger

There are many colors from Archival Ink- Ranger.

The website I provided earlier, you can see all the many colors available!

Positive Points from this fabulous Ink!!:

It dries quickly
You can paint with Alcohol Inks by Ranger and after that stamp with Archival Ink!
You can stampon Gloss Paper and on wood with this Ink
It doesn't smear on the surface,
You can stamp with it and after that color in the Image.
You can stamp words or frases with it for a clean stamped image.
You can clean your clear stamp wonderfully with Non Toxic Clean sTamp cleaner for Acrylic and Photopolymer stamps from Ranger
I also use clear stamps and stamp with it and it stamps clean and vivid.

Negative Points;

I haven't found any negative point as of yet

A small note about using clear stamps:
Some clear stamps becomes yellow after time when you use the
Inks like the one of Archival Ink. You need to be sure that it doesn't harm your clear stamps, before you use this Archival Ink with your clear stamps.

I add this note for you to make sure that you can use the Clear stamps you have, prior to using them with Archival Ink.
You can ask on Stamping forums or you can also contact the Stamp Company so you are sure that it doesn't harm the clear stamps you have. Just a thought.

Thank you for visiting my blog

Have a wonderful creative week!!

PRODUCT REVIEW- Memory Pencils

2010-04-05T08:59:00.004-04:00

Today is another Monday's Product Review!

I've been creating behind the screen of my pc and today I would like to spotlight one of my favorite

Color Pencils and it's properties!

Memory Pencils by EK Success

This is a set of 12 Color Pencils which have 3 wonderful properties that I absolutely love!

Positive Qualities:

1) The Memory Pencils are Waterproof, Fadeproof and Archival Quality!

2) When I color with the color pencils it has a nice wax over the image that makes it shine!

3) The box is an easy Easel Box so as I have in the other picture below so you have the pencils easy at your side on your desk to work with.

Negative Point:

1) The set comes with only 12 pencils and it gives me not the option to combine 2 to 3 colors when I would like to create a blend of several colors together. It's because it's fadeproof, that's why I use another blending medium to create the blended colors I want on my image.

Have a wonderful week!

Hugs

New Hybird Project- CD/DVD Album- Eyecandy Today!

2010-04-02T08:38:00.003-04:00

Hi ladies,

Happy Easter to everyone!! It is a wonderful time of the year to remember our Lord, Jesus and the love from God through is only begotten son, Jesus!

Some thoughts about Easter Season what it means in my life.

I'm so thankful for His blessings, what He has done for us.
Sometimes I can't even understand why some things happen, specialy when it's a difficult time like the one
my family is going through, but I feel God's guiding hands in the situation and that gives me peace and trust more in Him.

------------------------------------

I told you that there is an Eyecandy today and that's an amazing one!

Make it: CD/DVD Album by Krisi's Kreations available at Scrap Matters

This CD/DVD Album created with Krisi's Kreations CD/DVD Album Templates is wonderful for me to keep Biblical Verses and Motivational Quotes that are an inspiration in my life, at my fingertips by holding them in this CD/DVD Album that I can carry with me in my bag!

The idea is to have my favorite Gospel CD in one of the CD pockets in the album and the rest of the pages will have little notes with all the Biblical Verses and Quotes that are an inspiration specially during this difficult time.

Thanks for visiting and following.

Hugs,

PRODUCT Review- UHU Glue

2010-03-29T04:00:00.000-04:00

Product Review Monday!

This is the first Product Preview that I'm writing and there are more to come!

Hybrid Artists love the both worlds, the Digital Part and the Traditional Part
and combining both together makes you create a world of new possibilities!

Let we talk about Glue today, because that's what we as a Paper Crafter use the most
in my opinion.

We use glue for glueing different parts together or use a

repositional tape that makes it easy to move things around

on our Paper Craft Project.

My favorite all time Glue for Hybrid Projects that is liquid, but doesn't create a mess when I work with is UHU Glue.

There are Photo Safe/ Acid Free Uhu Glue that let us who wants to rpeserve what we create
achieve what we want and preserve our projects and photos!

My Favorite UHU Glue is the All Purpose Glue that with a small amount adheres the most sturdy cardstock making my Paper Craft Project look nice and clean.

For some Craft ideas you have ot check out UHU's blog too

One of my projects created with UHU All purpose glue is this beautiful card.

Changes on My Blog

2010-03-28T08:06:00.000-04:00

Hi,

I will be doing some changes to my blog, until I have it in a nice unique way.
I changed the header already, but I will do more changes to it.
I changed also the sidebar how things appear on my sidebar.

I think it needs a change and today I will be working on more changes during the day.

Also about the content, I will be doing some changes too!

I will start writing Product Reviews about the products I use when I do crafting.

That would be awesome to read about some new products or some tips on how I use the product.

I will start writing the Reviews weekly with a photo from the product.

I will have a Review on Mondays.

So, make sure, you're a follower to read about products on my blog with my weekly Crafty Projects.

I received some wonderful suggestions and I'm so thankful for all the suggestions and ideas. Thank you so much ladies!! I so appreciate it!

Thanks for visiting.

Hugs,

Kindness Card using a new Digi Stamp!

2010-03-26T15:34:00.000-04:00

Hi Everyone,

This cute doggie, I wanted to color it as a cute dog for a childroom and I wanted to used Mist on this project. This Digital Stamp is from Character Cafe

So I went ahead and I used Glimmer Mist for that sparkling pink-red shiny color that makes my card warm and achieve what I wanted, a cozy little card for a child.

I use different medium when coloring so as many of you know and this time I used chalk as the background and Glimmer mist on the card and on the Digital Image itself.

This week i had so many responsabilities including my dad who had surgery and now recovering that's why I was more out of the house during the day and crafting in the evening.

Next week everything is slowly coming back to normal making it possible for me to spend more time crafting and creating layouts.

Have a wonderful weekend!

New Card using New Digital stamp!

2010-03-26T15:26:00.000-04:00

Hi Everyone,

I'm so happy with the end result from this card. I bought this Digital Stamp and I so love the blue colors pop on the card!

I used the pencils from EK Success that are waterproof and fadeproof! The result are gorgeous!

I used some pearls on the leafs so it looks like waterdrops on each of the leafs.

I really had fun with this project!

Hugs,

Some new projects for challenges updates

2010-03-25T21:29:00.000-04:00

Hi everyone,

I've been creating some new cards and also new projects the last few days.

I finished some cards the last 2 evenings for a few challenges for this week, but it's until tomorrow I can take the photos.

It has been a week of many outdoors activities and I have been home only for a few hours to be on the go again. I've been crafting at night and I prefer to take photos during the day with nice daylight for the perfect reflection and colors really pop more.

It's only this week that is going to be so hectic for now.

Next week I will be more at home and crafting more.

Have fun creating!

My Hummingbird Card for Squigglefly Challenge!

2010-03-22T13:36:00.001-04:00

Hi Everyone,

This cute hummingbird is created for the Inside Out Card Challenge for the Digi Day Event on Saturday at Squigglefly on SNR Card Universe. It was so much fun, but with migraine, it is hard to keep up with all the fun. Check out the Squigglefly Blog for fun challenges.

Squigglefly is starting with a new line of Inside Out Digital Stamps on March27th that are wonderful!

I started with coloring the hummingbird and finished with creating the blue mat.

I use sparkle and shine for this hummingbird thinking when it's early in the morning when the sun is coming up in my country, the hummingbirds are somehow shining and so beautiful in the first rays of the rising sun.

I hope you like it as much as I do.

Hugs,
