Happy New Year!!! A Picture, some cards and an award!!!

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

I hope all of you had a great time and lot of fun celebrating the New Year. We stayed at home with my mom and a couple of friends. Nothing is better than good company, good wine and food. :)

I didn't have much time to make cards during these days but I managed to make these two. I used two stamps that I received as a gift for my Birthday from a very special friend. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I'm still jumping on my chair with happiness for such an AMAZING gift. You made my day!!! I also need to take pictures of all the wonderful cards I received for my Birthday and Christmas. I will not describe the materials used in these 2 cards because is a long post but is you have any question, please feel free to ask me. :))








Today I spent half of my day taking off the Christmas decoration because last year it took me almost a month :)) Here is a picture of part of my living room. ( I don't know why the sofa and the accessories look black, the real color is chocolate brown and the rest of the colors are beige, toasted orange and blue) . Even my little Lara appears on one corner of the picture with a toy in her bed. :)) I'm looking for new tables to match with my sofa and love seat but didn't find anything that catch my eyes yet, so in the meantime I have these little dark brown tables..



And changing of gears... my dear friend Heike gave me this wonderful award and I want to post it right away.. The first award of this year!!! Thank you so much sweetie, you made my day!!!

Adorable cards, Lim ~~~ you always do fabulous work. For some reason I can't subscribe to your feed, usually I can just click on that little orange button on the toolbar, then I'm notified when a blog is updated. Guess I'll just have to check back every day, lol!! Thanks for the inspiration!
