Cinco De Mayo Hop Sabor Papel and Craftwell

When Two well known Companies in the Crafting world come together SaborPapel and Craftwell to celebrate such a special event!

A quick snip what we 5 De Mayo means and why we celebrate.

Cinco de Mayo—or the fifth of May—commemorates the Mexican army’s 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). A relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the United States Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations. Cinco de Mayo traditions include parades, mariachi music performances and street festivals in cities and towns across Mexico and the United States.

Make sure you stop by  Craftwell USA blog first to get the full details on the prizes of the hop.

 This is what I have on my blog for today's Inspiration. 

A fun festive card with a touch of Sabor.

I colored my Simply Betty digi with copic markers. I did a little color placement on her eyes, Just because I like to play with eyes. 

This digi is called Rita Limes. I just used it as a Margarita to celebrate the event :P 

CHEERS!!!!

 

I just love the SaborPapel collection from Ole. The colors are so much fun to cheer up any party!

I used papel picado on my card and fussy cut many of the festive banners through out and arranging them as I wish.

Also sentimientos Ole came to play. These are just perfect for sentiments on your projects of any kind. I used the confetti green sheet as my base.

I used a few dies from LDRS Creative and created my tissue flowers using the circle die from the LDRS Square set.

Inspiration Post with SaborPapel and our theme is Earth Day so if you could recycle something and use it in a crafty way this month.

OK So ..... I panic lol! I said ...How can I incorporate Earth Day into my cards... I wanted to do something Earthy and Naturey... I know those are not real words but that's how I roll :P

Anyways SO I knew I wanted to color Wings from LDRS Creative DollHouse Rubber stamp.

I thought how about I pick some twigs from outside floor and use them as embellishments.

 A few twigs did the job the skinnier the better. I painted them black , let them dry and ten sprayed Easy Tack and sprinkled some fine sparkling snow glitter to seal the deal.
Now I created some sparkly twigs to sit my little girl in a magical scene.

I started with SaborPapel base background using Amor Ramitos Flower side and started layering from there.
LDRS Creative Dies behind Wings using Gilded Doily Die.

Wings is colored with watercoloring pencils thank you so much my SaborPapel sponsors. I really enjoyed using them.

I used SaborPapel Fiesta the orange side to create handmade flowers

and added moss underneath Wings for a dimensional effect.I really enjoyed the outcome of the twig project. I'm positive I'll be doing this again.


I hope this creation gets you in a fun spring or summer vibe and gives you ideas to Reuse, Reduce and Recycle!
