Faux Technique at Fussy and Fancy

Good morning everyone! It is F R I D A Y...and it is time for a new Fussy and Fancy Friday challenge.  Yeah!

Wendy is the hostess for this fortnight's challenge and it is a very interesting one.  We want you to use a faux technique, it can be faux stitching, faux fabric, faux dry embossing, you name it! Be creative and try something new while having a lot of fun! That's exactly what I did. For my card today, I am using faux tile technique and I must confess, I had a blast creating it, I love to try new things.  Take a look at it:

For a very special friend

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! Today, I am sharing with you a card I made for our friend Edgardo.  I wanted to thank him for being such a special friend and for always being there for us. He is the kind of friend, that is always available when you call him, that make you laugh until you cry and that never says no. These past weeks he took me to the doctor's office twice and he even baked this gorgeous cake for my niece's baby shower.  It was not only beautiful, but also delicious!!

I wanted to reciprocate everything he does for us so I bought him a copy of this book, I knew he desperately wanted.

And here is the card I created for him.
