Elegant Quinceañera Card Box

Happy Friday everyone I’m back and here’s a project that I was working on and want to share with you. I created this Elegant Quinceañera Card Box for my daughter’s party.
I covered the box with French Vanilla card stock from Bazzill and accented it throughout with 29th Street Market paper by My Mind’s Eye to make it look like old vintage torn wall paper. I inked all of the edges and corners with Brushed Corduroy and Peeled Paint Distress Ink by Ranger.
All of this I accented with some Prima Pearls and created Rose clusters with Iamroses roses and Prima roses and leaves. I personally hand crafted the stick pins and added a sparkling bead from The Bead Gallery. All in all I think this project turned out amazing and it captured the essence that I was looking for. I hope you enjoy it as well.








Things I’m grateful for this year



As many of you already know Christmas time is my favorite time of the year. This year I have many things to be grateful for.

I have My Mother and she is regaining her health I have my Father and he too is regaining his health. As a family we have lost some special members but I’m grateful because I was blessed enough time be part of their lives.

“BUT” most of all I am grateful for having my own healthy and happy family where unity always reigns so I leave you with this special prayer and hope that you feel the same during this special time of the year.

O Heavenly Father, our loving God, you have given us the Holy Family
as our patron to bless and guide our families that the fruit of the
Holy Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, humility, and self-control - shall reign in our homes.

Merry Christmas to you all
