I used the same colors my mom used because I liked how it looked. (You can see hers here.)
This is colored with Memory Pencils from EK Success.

A different fold card

My mom is learning to make cards with different folds and I like to learn too... So I made this card that has a different fold.

I used Trudy, freebie provided by Mo Manning a few weeks ago, I colored her with markers and pencils. I also used purple and pink glitter glue for her dress and cut it for the borders.

I used three different color cardstock and with a butterfly punch I made some decorations in one of the folds.

A bookmark

I love Bratz and love coloring... so my mom downloaded a few coloring pages for me, and I asked her to make them smaller for being able to use those images for cardmaking...

I colored this one, Skating Bratz, with my color pencils, and I'm very proud of myself as I'm learning not to go out of the lines and my coloring is improving a lot :) I cut it on the border to put it on the bookmark.

I used some scrap paper from my mom's scraps's box, I asked her to make a bow with a purple ribbon (still I can´t do them) and I used some flowers and blings to finish my bookmark. I'm planning to use it in my Bible for mom to know where we finish the night before...

A new card I made

My mom always print extra images in case her coloring is wrong, and I find them very usefull, because I can use them to make cards too.

I used this beautiful peacok, I colored with markers with the colors of the rainbow.

I used golden and silver cardstock to make my card. My mom helped me to cut them as I can´t use the cutting knife yet... Today, my mom tought me how to do beautiful roses with paper. My mom made one of them and I made the other two with pink cardstock and a scalloped circle punch. Then I added dark pink bling... did I tell you I love pink?

A very quick card

Yesterday I made this card very, very fast... I heard we were about to visit some friends we didn´t see for a few months and I wanted to do a card for my (girl) friend, I was so happy to see her...

It´s really good my mom has always a lot of printed images but she doesn´t have the time to use them all, so I used this Make it Crafty girl and colored it with markers and just glued to a green paper (it's not even cardstock).

I didn´t have time to put anything on it as we were rushing out to buy icecreams and juice to take, I asked my mom to write something inside and I put it in an envelope with many candies for my friend.
