Our Guest Designer ~ Ivonne

Good Morning!  I can't believe it's Friday already and time for our weekly guest designer post.  This week's challenge is a something a little different.  All you need to do is to use 1, 2, and 3 of something on your cards.  Sounds like fun, right?  And there's still time to play along so we hope you'll come join us! 

Our guest designer this week is Ivonne.  You can see Ivonne's winning card here.  Please take a moment to visit her blog - Our Life in Colors. 

Ivonne used 1 image, 2 papers, and 3 buttons on her card.   Isn't her card super cute?  I love the mix of papers she used and the adorable image is colored so perfectly, love the trio of buttons too!  Super card, Ivonne!

Ivonne

I am mother of a 17 years old beautiful young lady, who is the apple of my eyes.  We live in San Juan, Puerto Rico with our over affectionate Chihuahuas.  I work full time in an accounting firm as an Information Technology Specialist.  I’ve been crafting since I was a little girl, I’ve done macramé, cold porcelain, scrapbooking, mosaics and a few more.  I was introduced to card making by my best friend Kathya about two years ago when I went to visit her in Tampa and we did our first card together, I fell in love immediately.  We started our blog in October 2011 and our world got bigger immediately.  It’s amazing how a passion and a blog helps you make friends all over the world.  I am always learning new techniques, improving my coloring skills, trying new ways to color, new layouts, etc.  My favorite thing to do is coloring, especially with Copics, it’s my stress reliever, I looove it!

Thank you so much, Ivonne!  Remember, there's still time to play along with our challenge this week, the linky collection will remain open until Sunday 12 noon EST.  To enter your card in our challenge please see the post below.  Have a great day!
