The Paper Players Design Team Call

Woohoo!! One of my favorite challenge sites, The Paper Players, where I love to play every week (or most weeks!), is calling for two new Design Team members for March, April and May. So here my blurb goes.

My name is Liliana Inguanti-Garcia, but everyone calls me Lili. I've loved all type of crafts for my entire life.

I became a Stampin' UP! demonstrator right after I attended my first workshop four years ago. Since then I have been more and more involved with cards and different paper projects. I started my blog around one year ago to share my creations with others. Last year, I started participating in challenges and they have become my passion in creating something new every week, with different colors and designs.

I love to design cards and that is why I am so enthusiastic to be part of a design team, and to get inspired by talented artists and by all of the other submissions. This is a community where we have the chance to learn from each other, not only about papercrafting, but about culture and life.

Thank you so much for considering my submission!

Here are three of my favorite projects:

-Here is a little 3-D project I made last year for a class I was teaching

-This one I had made a while back for a colourQ challenge

-I made this one for Christmas last year

The Friday Mashup #46

I'm not old, I'm vintage! That is the theme for this week's challenge for The Friday Mashup. I have to thank The Friday Mashup team for picking my card as a Glamette on challenge #45, which was about penguins. It was an uncommon theme and so much fun to make a card with that bird!

Hope your day is as wonderful as you are! God bless you all!

Thanks for stopping by!

Clean and Simple Stamping #176

I was inspired by babies to create this card for the Clean and Simple Challenge #176. The size of the base of the card is 6 x 5-1/2, and the main panel is 4-3/4 x 2-1/2. I think that is a very unusual size, but it really looks very nice when the card is done.

I stamped the tees in Marina Mist on Whisper White cardstock and on designer paper. I cut them out from the designer paper and glued them on the white cardstock. I embossed the clothes line with Edgelits Dies (Adorning Accents-#125595) and tied the tees using Hemp Twine. Hope you like it!

Enjoy your day! God bless you all!

The Friday Mashup challenge 45: Penguins

Hi everyone! First of all, I have to thank the Friday Mashup team for picking my card on challenge #44 and for all the wonderful comments you left on my blog. They are much appreciated!!

The new challenge is about creating a project featuring penguins and/or using the Spotlighting Technique. So, I decided to make a penguin with punches and use that technique too. My friend and colleague Geraldine Andrade is a pro with punches, so I was inspired by her penguins to create this card. To add some texture to the little penguin, I poured Crystal Effect on top. The bubbles where she is thinking also have Crystal Effect, and the background was stamped with the image of the little penguin. Hope you could see all the details in the picture. It was so much fun creating this card and I think that the girl penguin is very cute, isn't she? Hope you like it.

Have a wonderful day! Enjoy!

Lili
