Guest Designer for Dilo En Espanol - Say it in English - Celebrating Life - Project 3

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
Welcome to the 3rd Tuesday in August where I will be showcasing the Say it in English - Celebrating Life stamps from Dilo En Espanol
Today's project I have to admit was not what I originally had planned for this post.  I thought of this project at 10:00 pm last night while lying in bed going to sleep.  I just couldn't get it out of my mind so I ran straight into my craft room and made it.
 
 I water colored the camera and popped it up on foam squares. Then I took the entire set of bubbles and banners stamps and about 5 different shades of blue and created background for this simple but cute card. 
 
 
 
Here is my project below:
 
 
 

 
 
Stamp sets I used:
Celebrating Life - My Memories - "Everyday Memories" and camera
Celebrating Life - Bubbles and Banners - All stamps for background
Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you back here next Tuesday for another project showcasing Say it in English - Celebrating Life.

Dilo En Espanol - Guest Design Team Introduction Blog Hop

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
 
I come to you today to announce that I was picked to be the
August Guest Designer for Dilo En Espanol.
I will be posting my project every Tuesday for the month of August. 
So I hope you will come back to visit and see what I have created.
 
Now on to the Blog Hop.
If you are coming from DILO EN ESPAÑOL-www.retosabby.com
then you are in the right spot.  If not please click on the link and start from the beginning.  You don't want to miss a thing.
 
For those of you who don't know me my name is Chaunnelle Gonzalez.
I've been married to my wonderful, supportive husband for 16 years. 
We have a beautiful little girl and she is 4 years old and my partner in paper crafting crime.
 
I have been paper crafting for approximately 21 years after taking my very first Creative Memories Scrapbook class.  I have always loved paper, stickers and such but that class took it to a whole other level for me and I have never looked  back.  I have just maybe in the last 4 or 5 years taken a liking to stamps.  Especially sentiment stamps.  I can't seem to get enough. 
 
My mother in law speaks mainly Spanish and I made her a set of cards as a Christmas gift a few years ago but they were all in English.  She of course loved them and used them proudly.  Then I came across Dilo En Espanol and fell in love with these stamps.  I am so excited cause now I can make my mother in law tons of cards and she is going to be so happy.  I will one day have them all and I can make any card my mother in law needs or anything else she may request.

 
Below are 2 projects I created using Dilo En Espanol stamps.  Here is the link to the store http://abby.bigcartel.com/
 
 
 
 
Stamp set used:
 
Queremos Pastel - Felicidades
Felicidades En Grande - por tu bebe
Besitos de Bebe - circle baby feet





 
Stamps used -
 
Queremos Pastel - Feliz Cumpleanos
Besitos Cumpleaneros
 
 
 
I hope you enjoy my cute little cards I made for you today.  I can't wait to show you more of my work in the Month of August.

My DT Call Entry for Dilo En Espanol - My Story in Scrapbooking

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
Here is my entry for the Dilo En Espanol Design Team Call. 
 We were asked to showcase an album of our work. 
This is a very special album as it tells the story of my hubby and I.
 




 
Above I used a stamped image (Journal Box)










 
I know we were suppose to use stamps but for what I was saying I did not have stamps.
 
 
 
I am interested in being on the Dilo En Espanol Design Team because I would love to make things for my Mother in Law and my Husbands family. Oh and it will help me learn Spanish it's only been 20 years that I have been with my hubby and my daughter knows more Spanish than I do and she is 4.  She even translates in her own way for me.  No matter what the outcome I will continue to purchase your wonderful stamps because they help me make wonderful gifts for the people I love.
 
Thank you for taking the time to look at my project.
 
Crafty Hugs to all,
 
Chaunnelle

My sweet little girl is following in her mommies footsteps quite well.  Especially since her favorite stamps and dies to play with are Jaded Blossom.
Her favorite colors are pink and green, she loves bling, and from the minute I received and opened my happy mail with the little gingerbread man die she had me make her tons of little gingerbread cut outs.
When I showed her my project her jaw dropped and she was just so excited to see that this was all for her.
 
Here is my simple but meaningful project I came up with I hope you enjoy:

I just love the big eyes some of the images have which makes them
perfect for the tiny goggle eyes.  Although I did not use them today I have many ideas running through my mind.  I just couldn't get away from
the "Whale you be mine?" sentiment.  I tried but I am a sucker for love and Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday.  Ok I know it is way past Valentine's but this just shows how versatile Jaded Blossom stamps are.
 
Here is my project I came up with I hope you enjoy:
