Bird id the word "Discover" , Glitz February Challenge and OUAS e

Hello everyone!!  I will show you two pages that I made for some challenges.  I made my first page like DT work for Bird is the Word and the new word is "Discover"...you can use this word like the tittle or like part of your journaling for the challenge.  You can see how the DT used the word in their Beautiful projects...check HERE.
I also combined this page with the Glitz February Challenge that consists of making a page/card with  beautiful palette colors.
This time I played with a boy page.  I found this lovely picture when Alexander had one year and he loved to play  in the shelves, inside the kitchen gabinets or under the bed..he was discovering all the imaginables places at home.

I used the Dreamer collection, I cut some cards and used it like embellishments and the transparency for the tittle...all products are for Glitz.







The Color Palette...

You can use this lovely sketch by Mary Thomas for the BITW challenge.





Once Upon a Sketch & Scrapfit

Journalling criteria/theme: HOLIDAYS/VACATION

With the theme of holidays/vacation for this challenge, we would love to hear about: your favourite holiday/vacation of all time or a favourite place you would LOVE to take a holiday in . Or how about the last holiday/vacation you went to?  Maybe you have not travelled yet?

                                                                   My page...

I asked the kids which are their favorite vacation and they picked this one and my girl Paola wrote the journaling.  For them, this was a special vacations because we traveled with their cousins and auntie. We rented a house for all of us for one week and a half in Orlando, Florida.  We visited their favorites parks and attractions...
These kids had a wonderful time all together.

Hard days for me...

Hello!  I hope all of you are fine!! I've been completely disconnected from "Blogland" these last weeks
because I had some hard days here, so I really don't know what's happening or has happened during this time, I missed all of you.
I started feeling very sick weeks ago, I couldn't breath well, I became dizzy and very very tired among other things like I looked like a Twilight vampire character..gray-like...I felt horrible.  To summarize, I was hospitalized for emergency with a Cronic anemia  the doctors had to transfuse three pints of blood to stabilize me and I left the hospital  two days ago.  As you can see I had vacations at the hospital.  But I'm at home recovering  and I'm feeling better at least no more fatigue for now and this is the reason why you haven't seen me here or passing by your blogs.  Today is the first day that I use my computer.   Stay tuned that I will give a copy of CS Book in my next entry, this is just a  little note to let you know.    I need a strong dose of scrapbooking!!!    Well my blogger friends, take care!!!!


                                      With Love,
                                        Marilyn
