I was super excited to see these incredibly adorable images designed by none other than Rachelle Anne Miller (hence the RAM!) and I hope you are, too! You may find these new exclusive PWCO images right *here*!!! There are 4 adorable exclusive new images! I have long admired Rachelle's illustrations and am sooooo happy to hear she has designed some PWCO stamps!
My first card is to honour Peggy from PaperWorksCo; she is celebrating her 30th birthday this month! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEGGY!!!
My second project is a framed piece of art. Since mother's day is coming up here in North America (May 9th), I took the duck image and iterpreted the middle duck to be the Mama. "Mãe" means mother in Portuguese and so I made this especially for my mother.
I have blog candy courtesy of Peggy! To be entered to win, please leave me a comment telling me the last wedding you attended and your favourite moment. You see, I am in Seattle attending the wedding of 2 wonderful friends (it was last night...I am a bit bleery eyed! LOL). I have many many favourite memories from last night, including sharing a table with my wonderful friends, some of whom I hadn't seen in a few years. I also loved seeing all our hard work (I helped with paperie stuff) come to fruition and be admired by all.
Edit: Draw will be on Sunday evening!
FYI - Peggy will be choosing one lucky commenter from one of the blogs to win the GRAND PRIZE - all FOUR new PWCO -Rachelle Anne Miller stamps!!! Woah!!! I wonder if I can enter...hmm.... *tee hee*Edit: will post back shortly to tell you when the grand prize draw will be!

ReplyDeleteun saluto dall'italia
Welcome aboard as GD, glad to have you with us.. Your projects are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteawwwwwwwww a card dedicated to ME.. awwww
ReplyDeleteit makes turning 30 not so bad afterall!
great work cris! amazing frame work, and the card.. oh the card....
Suuuuuuuuuper cute projects!!! That frame is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteperfect! I just love how you framed the cake image - great idea - I'll borrow it someday!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE how that mouse is jumping out of the paper, so clever!! That frame is beautiful too, it's neat how you only coloured the one duck as your focus.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects!!
ReplyDeleteLove your framed card. The spotlighting is perfect.
ReplyDeleteMy last wedding was my cousin's last summer. The best moment was actually the best man's speech. He made the couple hold hands and then look out at the crowd. He commented on how blessed the couple was - family, friends, coworkers, childhood scout leaders had attended. Both were well loved. But as of right now, none of that meant anything. He then had the bride and groom look at each other. "As of right now, only the two of you matter and your love for each other." I'm not nearly so eloquent in the telling. Needless to say the couple kissed. BEAUTIFUL!
Oh I adore that framed picture for your mom - and the way you've done that card is soooo cute. I'll have to give that a try one day because it looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLast wedding I went to was a friend from college and my favorite moment was when I looked around and every detail struck me as so perfectly hand picked by the couple. Because we took graphic communications together, it really became apparent all the color coordination that he'd done (down the pantone colors) and the time they'd spent making everything JUST right =)
These are fabulous creations, love the picture of the ducklings, will have to try something like this for my girls.

Loved the mouse popping out of the card!!!
ReplyDeleteMy last wedding memory has to be hanging out in the pool after. Wewere at Cancun, super hot!
These are amazing! I love your frame with the one image coloured and the other left plain. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adorable!! The birthday card is fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteAwww how adorable!!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Rachel
Love that birthday card! How clever!
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I went to was for my cousin. It was an absolute blast. My favorite moment was when then dj tricked everyone out on the dance floor for team dance challenge! It was a hoot!
awww...that little mouse in the cake is the cutest thing evar!!
ReplyDeletecute projects!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute. Love how you did the paper on the mouse card.
ReplyDeleteYour mom is going to cry when she opens this. Just gorgeous!! I love the focus on the middle duck.
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I attended was my older daughter's. My favorite moment was the sand ceremony. As we are a split family and my daughter wanted to include everyone equally in a meaningful way she had each set of parents and partners come up and pour sand into a vase. The bridal couple were the last to pour and then the words "As each of these grains of sand are now combined never to be separate again, so too are our families combined forever" were spoken. It brought tears of joy to know that not only we were accepting a new member into our family but that they accepted each of our partners as family as well.
That first card is SO STINKIN' FUN! I love it! Beautiful project for your mother too. She will be so happy!
ReplyDeleteoh i love love love the birthday card the effect is brilliant am gonna have to give that a try.
ReplyDeletethe last wedding i attended was actually my own last year :) my best memory of the day is walking up the isle towards my husband to be it was the best feeling ever knowing i was about to commit myself to him for the rest of my life i love him soooo much
HOW FUN Cristina!! What beautiful projects! The paper technique in the card is PERFECT!!
ReplyDeleteI honestly can not even REMEMBER the last wedding I was at. Probably Cory and Amanda's!!
Or was your brother's first? (This is what happens to your brain once you hit 40. Yeesh!) The music is always my favourite part of a wedding :) Enjoy the rest of your time away!
WOW your creations are gorgeous! I love the pop out on the card and the mom sentiment...are you Portuguese? Anyways I digress...the last wedding I attended was here in Crete in October...my fav was sharing the day with 700 people (and that was a small wedding for here) and doing some Greek dancing with people I've never met and can't hold down a conversation with...LOVE THIS country!
ReplyDeleteCute. I like how the paper curls up.
ReplyDeleteI love the framing on your card. I've got to have a go at that.
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I went to was that of one of my closest friends in August. The best moment was seeing Ted (my friend Joy's son) running around the grounds on an (imaginary) jelly baby hunt. Despite being in excrusating pain from the tumour that had developed on her back and shoulder. I had never seen her looking so happy or proud. It was the last time I saw her as she passed away in January. But it is a memory that will last me forever.

cris, these projects ar amazing!!! love how you framed the mouse with the torn dp...really goes well with the theme of the mouse coming out of the cake! and the framed work of art is beautifully done! how creative to use this stamp as a tribute to mother's day! so glad you were able to be GD with pwco, cris! it has been awesome working with you!!! tfs:):)
ReplyDeleteLove them! So much fun and just pure happy!
ReplyDeleteWow, what great projects. I am smitten by those little ducks:)
ReplyDeleteAdorable!!!! I love both your projects with them!!!! So cute!
ReplyDelete:)Kathy
Oh both of these projects are so sweet. Wow! So much talent on the entire hop!
ReplyDeleteCRIS!!!! Oh my goodness! LOVE how you used the mouse stamp! the red is amazing and the frame...LOVE it!!! and your second project is equally as amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteLove what you did on both of your projects. What a great job. You have done an amazing job.
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with the birthday card! The other project is adorable too!
ReplyDeleteI love the birthday card you made especially how you made the little window to showcase the fabulous image and the art you made for your mom is adorable! Hmmm...the last wedding I went to was my dad and his wife, small but intimate :)
ReplyDeleteThese projects are fabulous - I love them both!
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I attended was that of one of my cousins. Our ancestors are from Scotland so she had her brother "pipe" her out after she and her new DH said their "I do"s... nice. :)
Beautiful projects! I love how you pulled the paper back to reveal the image on your card! Great idea :D
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I attended was my sister's. I was her matron of honor.
So stinkin' cute! Love the mouse bursting out of the dp - very clever!
ReplyDeleteWOW!! I loveeee the cute lil sweet mousey card as well as the MDay card...both beautifully creative!!I LOVE THEM BOTH!!:o)
ReplyDeleteLast wedding I attended to was my own...although it was an anniversary celebration (our 40th) we did renew our vows in Church w/our family and friends presents,especially our grandchildren,and we enjoyed the same song sang at our original wedding day so many years ago...It was a great day of celebration for us all!:o)
I love the "peek a boo hole" (for lack of a better term) you created on that card ~ very cool idea! The framed art is stunning too ~ great job!
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I attended ~ wow, that's a hard one ~ I was supposed to go to one last year, but two of my kids were sick, so we didn't go. So, I think the last one would have been my own 13 years ago. As for memories ~ all of it ~ after all, what's not to remember on your own wedding day ~ especially when you don't drink!
Welcome to your first blog hop! :) Both of your projects are great. I love the paper technique you used on your birthday card. It's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWOW, great projects! I especially love the look on the first one; like the image is exploding thru the paper! The last wedding I attended was that of my DH's cousin about 1 1/2 years ago. My favorite part was the picture montage they had playing before the ceremony...I got to see some piccies of my DH as a youngin' that I hadn't seen before! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful projects! I like the look on the first one, that's a nice idea! Thank you for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Hazel
These are so cute! Great work. I love how you did your first card (what a great idea!).
ReplyDeleteSuper cute creations Cris!
ReplyDeleteThe last wedding I went to was my own!!! My hubby and I got married in a small church and then walked the 200ft to the beach to have our photos taken. It was perfect!
goodness, both are so cute. looks like he will jump out anytime.
ReplyDeleteFabulous projects!! The last wedding that I attended was for a friend of mine.My favorite part was when her son was included in the ceremony.
