Tea Party Invitations

Hi everyone!

Today - at Pink Paislee blog - I have a special invitation for you!

As part of the "You´re Invited"  inspirational week, I invite you to join us for a tea party filled with high tea, dellicious food, a delicate floral tablecloth, small vases, pretty flowers, fabulous conversation and, of course, the London Market with a touch of Soiree collections by Pink Paislee!

 

 

For this special occasion, I prepared a few  unique, fun and chic invitations:

 

 

I decided to make different invitations for each guest, and I have used the London Market jumbo numbers to distinguish them.

TSC Women´s Week

 

 Hi everyone!

We are having a special week at The Scrapcake blog!

TSC Inspirational Women´s Week!

I must admitt that I love everything about being a woman. I adore the delicacy that I see in the feminine universe: flowers, dresses, purses, perfumes, lipstick, fertility, sensibility, etc.
I love the power and beauty that lies in being a woman. I love the shape of our bodies and the privilege to carry and bring life into this world. I even love my moods and the changes my body suffers every month during our cycles. I understand that that´s the way life moves - in a circle and that I´m part of it.
That makes me constantly change my mind and I accept changes! I adore not having to hide my emotions and pretend that I´m not weak... If tears come to my eyes...they can simple fall with no fear... 
I´m fortunate enough to live in a country where women have the same autonomy, the same power and freedom than men and they´re so brave!
So, I´m trully thankful that I do not have anything to complain about being a woman and that´s why I just prepared for you a single page layout to show you you that I love being so feminine.

 

 

 

 

 

The Bright Side Of Life collection with a touch of My Private Happiness

Stay tunned for much more inspiration from our Design Team! This week will be amazing!
Thanks for your visit!

 

In Portuguese

Olá pessoal!

Estou de volta com mais projetos especiais para The Scrapcake!

Desta vez, como parte da semana de inspiração no universo feminino, preparei o layout acima, usando as coleções The Bright Side of Life e My Private Happinness.

TSC Music Day

 

Hi everyone!

Every Sunday we have special series at The ScrapCake blog. Today is MUSIC day. Once a month they publish a post full of ideas inspired by music, all done  using  The ScrapCake collections!

I´ve  prepared a  3D paper piano - a piece I´m planning to give my mom as it´s a tribute to her.

When I was young, I used to listen to the songs that my mother played. We had a piano in our home and, even though it was difficult for her to play because she´s deaf, I always loved seeing her efforts to overcome.
I never cared about any mistakes just loved seeing how passionate she was about music. I made this 3D piano piece to her and included a mini that goes inside to preserve my memories and to tell mom that despite all the difficulties, she was always able to listen to us and to play the music of our hearts!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One Moment in Time collection

Have a lovely Sunday and don´t forget to check The Scrapcake blog - Flo has done another amazing instrument to inspire you!!!

See you there!

 

In Portuguese

Olá pessoal!

Bom domingo!!!

Hoje é dia de postagem temática no blog da The ScrapCake, é dia de inspiração pela música e fiz um trabalho especial para mostrar aos fans da marca.

Desta vez um piano em 3D com um mini no formato de sua cauda para inserir.

Esse piano é um presente pra minha mãe, que faz aniversário daqui a dois dias. Quis contar uma memória que tenho dela e homenageá-la.

Quando criança me lembro de minha mãe tocando músicas ao piano, estudando e tentando superar a surdez da qual foi acometida desde criança.

Gostava de vê-la tocando, tentando superar todas as dificuldades e se entregando a sua paixão e ao seu sonho. Nunca me importei com as notas erradas porque ela sempre soube tocar as músicas de nosso coração e esta foi a mais bonita melodia de minha infância, que aquecia e embalava meu coração!

- Você nunca foi surda aos meus anseios, à minha voz e aos meus gritos, mamãe! Não se cale nem desista agora que há muitos corações a serem tocados ainda!

Um ótimo domingo a todos!

Vou aproveitar para almoçar com minha mãe e presenteá-la com esta peça!

Once Upon a Sketch May Challenge

Hi everyone!

A new challenge is up at Once Upon a Sketch Challenge blog!

 

 Theme: Mum

We would like you to create a layout and interpret the theme "Mum" however you like based on the following sketch. You can journal as little or as much as you like, but your layout must incorporate this theme and the sketch.

Ideas for journalling: you as a mother, your role as a working/stay-at-home mum, sacrifices/benefits of being a mum, one day in your life as a mum, how your life has changed since being a mum, a tribute to your own mum, grandmother, guardian or someone you consider as close as your mum, your relationship with your mum or your daughter, one trait you have take from your mum, your desire to be a mum, your feelings on motherhood, what does it mean to be a mum?, what kind of mum do you want to be? , Mother's Day celebrations/traditions, your favourite Mother's Day gift given/receive etc..

Here´s my take

 

 

 

 

 

 

**Imaginarium Designs - butterfly, bird cage, clock face, flourishes

 

Check it out at OAS blog!

See you there!

 

In Portuguese:
