GIU Day 4!

For English, go to 3rd paragraph ;)

¡Buenos Días!

Espero que estén disfrutando de los trabajos que les estoy presentando esta semana como parte de Growing in Unity de Unity Stamp Company. La compañera Vicki Beall también participa esta semana de GIU así que no olviden visitar su blog también. Comenta en ambos blogs para más oportunidades de ganar sellos de Unity Stamp Co. También pueden pasar por mi página de Facebook Maia Ink y darle "Me gusta" para ver todos los trabajos que realizo.

A lo que vinimos... La maternidad es hermosa pero definitivamente tiene efectos en la mente de una mujer. El famoso "mommy brain" es real. Desde que tuve a mi niño se me olvidan las cosas. Para resolver, tengo que escribir TODO. Compré una libreta económica con patrón de "chevron" color verde menta. El color me pareció perfecto para decorarlo con el set "Let's Flamingle".  Los flamingos están super de moda en estos momentos. Combiné el diseño de la libreta con papel de color neutral en fondo con diseño sencillo. Luego creé mi propio diseño de fondo en cartulina blanca usando el set "(Keeping up with the) Tribal Trend", "Distress Inks" en tonos rosas y amarillos y con Perfect Pearls. Luego corté mi nombre usando mi Cricut Explore Air y le dí un efecto Ombre con "Distress inks". La imagen del flamingo la estampé en papel para acuarelas y los coloreé con "Distress Inks" también. Para el 2do flamingo, lo estampé con la técnica en reverso ("mirror stamping"). Definitivamente necesito adquirir la herramienta para estampado al reverso que tiene Unity Stamp Co. La imagen hubiera quedado mucho más bonita, así que ya la herramienta está en mi "wish list" para mi próxima compra. Apliqué "Glossy Accents" en los picos de los flamingos y en el nombre para darle dimensión. Bueno, l@s veo mañana para la última entrada de GIU.






Hello!!!

Hope you have been enjoying the cards I've presented so far as part of the Growing in Unity from Unity Stamp Company. Our friend Vicki Beall is also a GIU gal this week so don't forget to visit her blog too. Comment on both blogs for chance to win stamps from Unity <3. Be sure to visit my Facebook fanpage Maia Ink and "like" it to keep up with me and my creations.

Now to what you are here for... Maternity is beautiful and it definitely has effects on a woman's mind. Mommy brain is real! Since I had my son I forget almost everything. To solve the issue, I have to write everything down. I bought a cheap notebook with a mint colored chevron pattern. The color seem perfect for me to decorate it with the  "Let's Flamingle". set. Flamingos are a trend right now. I combined the design of the notebook with a neutral patterned paper with a simple design. Then I created my own background on white cardstock using the set  "(Keeping up with the) Tribal Trend", Distress Inks in yellow and pink tones and Perfect Pearls. I then cut my name using my Cricut Explore Air and colored it with an Ombre effect with Distress Inks. I stamped the flamingos in watercolor paper and colored it using Distress Inks. For the second flamingo, I did the mirror stamping technique. I really need to buy the Mirror Image Stamping tool from Unity Stamp Co. The image would have been way better. Be sure it is currently on my wish list for my next Unity purchase. I applied Glossy Accents to the beaks and to my name to add dimension. Well, see you tomorrow for my last post for GIU. Hopefully, I'll be back!
