126 designs

To decorate one of the sizes on my tent during this weekend festival, I designed and ordered in Spoonflower 4 yards of fabric. 108.00in x 72.00in of fabric. 126 designs. Well… 125 design because I just realize I repeat one of the designs. Ops!



I guess I will have a new quilt after the show.
Happy Thursday!

The winner and 2 other things...

Thank you so much for all the wonderfull wishes and for celebrating with me during the weekend. I really enjoyed reading everybody’s weekend plans. A lot of fun out there!
My birthday was fun! I had nice dinner at home. Super nice :)
The rest of the weekend was productive but I didn’t have time to paint (bummer!) BUT I’ll be painting a lot in the next weeks.
OK. And now the calendar winner! I used the random number generator and the winner was the number 6...



Mandie!! You are the winner :) Sent me your mailing address and the calendar is going to be traveling to your new apartment this week!.
Thanks again to everybody for playing along with me.

I want to share with you 2 new little things.

First… I got a little Spoonflower envelope in the mail on Friday. My “Lila” swatches are here and now you can get the fabrics at my Spoonflower shop. Super!



And Second… I didn’t paint last weekend because I was doing a couples of other things like designing my sister’s new blog ;)



If you know Spanish, read her blog. That girl is a guru on exercise, diet and gossips ;)
You like the design??

Happy Monday!!

fabrics!

Super! I got my swatches samples from Spoonflower and I really like how the colors and details looks ;)



Check my Spoonflower shop!

P.S: Thanks for all the comments regarding my "Little Tractorcito" coloring page. I think will be cool to create more pages like that for kids AND adults.
What you think?

here we go again...

Well... looks like I will keep sending designs to Spoonflower contests ;)
Here is my first 2011 submission.

The theme is " Large Scale Botanical (palette-restricted)". I really like the design I made, indeed, I made this a week ago for my "Marisa" collection, I just adjusted the colors for the palette restricted. So, I really like my design and I think works good in the theme, but I was shocking seeing some of the other designs… AWESOME! Wow, so much talent and inspiration there!
Check the contest and vote for your favorites here.

And looks like patterns and fabrics are going to be my main focus this month. Looks the collection I just finished.

Happy Thursday!

First 2011 project...

New patterns for fabric (well, indeed the patterns can be used for other things too, of course). I already uploaded and order samples of this "collection" in Spoonflower.
Happy Tuesday :)

Playing

One of the presents I made/gave to my husband is this block puzzle game. Fun thing to play while watching football in a lazy-cozy Sunday at my mother in law house.
Hope you had (& having!) a wonderful Christmas day and weekend!

P.D: This puzzle was made using 2x2 wooden blocks and prints of my artwork ;)

Dear November

Oh sneaky November… what are you doing here? Who told you to come so soon? Unbelievable! Only 2 months left and 2010 will be history :(
Usually I’m always super excited with the beginning of each month, but this time is a little bittersweet. Don’t get me wrong, I ABSOLUTELY love this time of the year, indeed October and November are my favorite months, but I feel a little bit sad about this wonderful 2010. I’m not ready for a new year full of adventures.
Well… I don’t have other option and start preparing myself for 2010 farewell. I promise to do my super best and get the maximum of the next 2 months. This year has been REALLY good to me. 2010, I’ll always remember you ;)

So… how about MORE calendars to start getting in the 2011 mood?
One of these designs is going to participate in the next Spoonflower Contest. Today is the last day to send the design and I’m still thinking which one I should send.
What you think?



P.S: My newsletter is going out of my inbox later today ;)

this and that

I have a few things to share with you today.

First, FINALLY I made other design to participate in this week Spoonflower contest. The theme this week was "Creatures of Woodland". My idea was to create a design with a quilt feeling. In my mind I could picture a cool duvet with cool forest animals. In my mind, I could see the duvet in really vibrant colors. For some crazy reason,(no idea why!) while I was working in the design my mind switch to a more warm pink palette and now the design looks like this.



I still like it a lot (and you can vote for it if you want ;) just click here to go to the Spoonflower contest), but still I wanted to see the design in the vibrant colors I previously had in mind.
Soooo... I create some images to update my Society 6 shop. The cool thing about Society 6 is the ability to create cool things like iPhone cases, laptops and iPads skins, t-shirts, canvas and more.
I REALLY like how the designs look in these colors... What you think?

You can check my whole shop here ;)



And taking about cases and skins. Now you can get my designs in skins for blackberry, iPhones, Kindle, laptops and more in DecalGirl.com :) I got some samples last week and I LOVE IT!!!

You want to check my shop? Just click here.



And talking about samples. I'll do a little giveaway with some of those samples! This time it's going to be a little bit different. Next Monday (Nov 1), I'll send my newsletter with a couple of new things, a little freebie and the giveaway info. If you want to participate, you have to receive my newsletter ;) If you are not in mailing list, you can ckick here to suscribe right now!

OK. That is all for the day. Now I have to start looking online for my Halloween makeup ideas. I think I'll just take my Japanese robe and paint my face like geisha. I'll be a Geisha with short hair ;)

Happy Thursday!!

Fabric in the mail

A couple of friends from Venezuela ordered some of my fabrics to make cover pillows. I got the fabric yesterday and look pretty good! Now I'm cutting and packing ;)





BTW, you remember these pillows?



You can buy the yard of Upholstery-weight twill with six designs and make your own pillows or placemats! My fabrics are available in my spoonflower shop.

New pillow covers!

Happy new week!. I'm super exited because Autumn is here... unfortunately I live in Miami, and in this part of the country we don't enjoy the whole season thing :( BUT It's OK, I'm still happy for the change of the season because, as usual, I think any change it's a great opportunity for great new things! I cant wait to see what is going to happen the last months of this year.

My sister and her husband are still in town until next Sunday. It's super cool to have part of my family in town. Last weekend within fun food, beers, comedy show and food, I found time to design some new pillow covers using some of Owls and Birds :)
