My Word for 2014

I had seeing lot of people selecting a word for this new year. And I want to do the same thing. This is my first time doing it and I chose the word GROW.
I I will work hard on learn and adsorb all I can from the Workshops I will be taking. I will try to get all good around me. Focused on how can make me better, how can I grow with everything around me.
I had being already more than 5 years I didn't do resolutions starting a year because I know I will not do it. But this time I feel totally different. I feel I can do anything I want. That it is what this 2013 make of me. A believer of my self! So now it is time for me to Grow and do what ever I decided to do with my self.

So here my resolutions!
1. Get to me healthy weight (the classic!)
2. Participate at least on one craft fair.
3. Start calling my self and Artist.
4. Start "homeschooling" my baby boy (not really, just set 30 mins a day to teach him something every day)
5. Be in peace with my self and my love ones.

 And of course! I did and page on my Art Journal about my 2014 Word! Here the pictures.







And here the video of the whole process.

December Color Challenge Lindy's Stamp Gang

I did a page for my December Daily Art Journal.

First thing I sprayed the cardstock with Delphinium Turquoise . And added clear Gesso over the page, that way it is not going to mix with the next color.



And after it was dry I added Heliotrope Purple Plum with TCW  Mini Grunge Hearts Stencil



I used Modeling paste and gesso with a SaCrafter's Stencils and over the Gesso I added Open arms amethyst.



And I stamp a few things around and used Razzleberry Plum Embossing Powder




And to finished the page I used a little of White Gelato Faber Castell to frame the art journal page.




I hope you liked!

December Daily Art Journal Cover and Back

I decided to create a December Daily Art Journal. My first attempt ever to do a December Daily and it was totally inspired by Andrea Gomoll (check the link on her name). She is a terrific artist and an amazing teacher. So after being kind of sad about the idea of take a break of my creative side (because I am trying to go to bed early and I am pretty much an owl since my baby boy born) so I got excited about take at least 15 mins and create a fast page. Of course I watched her first video about it yesterday, so I just started late (not December 1st). I will try to make a post daily of my page.

I used the Mixed Media Art Journal from Prima, I got it last year not sure how much time it had being around, but I never got to do anything with it. So it just did click this is the perfect opportunity to use it!

Here it is the cover and the back of the December Daily Art Journal. I used mainly Panpastels Red, Yellow and Blue to make green. I used stencils and fabric paint red and green and the white is gesso. I used and old stamp for the month and year, and add some Stickels on it. The burlap closure is a banner I got from the Dollar bin from Target.

I hope you like it and stay with me in the process of my December Daily.








And here the video of the process. 

Thanks so much for come and read!

What I need to "let go..."

Well I need to admit that sometimes I feel guilty because I am enjoying being alone in my corner without my kids. Lets clarify that happen when they are in bed after 9 pm. Sometimes I have an idea and I want to work on it, but they are awake! So I feel very guilty about wish they get tired and go to bed! So this is my page I made about it. Hope you like it!

What is in my mind...

Hello everyone...
I had being thinking lately. Too much maybe. But I am getting in a point in my live where I want more. Not necessarily more money, or more work. I want more of what I love. Do what I think makes me the happiest.

I can tell you I am in a pretty good place right now. I have an amazing family that I love and they love me to pieces. I can feel it! And I know it! LOL But for real my "career" I know I could do better. In one point of my live I dream about my career. And it was a totally different vision! I dreamed about being a Math Professor for a College. But the necessities and priorities goes changing after the time flies.

In this time of my live I see my self surrounded by my family (100%) and creating art. I know it is a 360 degrees change in the directions of my dreams. But you know what... why not? I can dream too! I am a happy 37 year old woman and I can do it! I am not dreaming to becoming a Picasso or Monet. I would love just to create and the people could enjoy what I created.if can make a little profit doing  what I love even better! ;)

For me is pretty pretentious call my self an Artist... it does not feel right. I feel like I am giving me to big as a name! But... that is my dream! So I will call my self... an Artist in Training.

I will concentrate more in my art journals, canvas, etc. I will put aside the scrapbook that open my brains windows to a new world of colors and possibilities.

I had being posting almost daily an entry on Instagram showing you what had I being creating daily.
