10 years after this blog was born…. Didn’t even remember I had this blog until I got into it by accident. Oh boy….. so many things had happened .
My life definitely is not the same…
I’m not a home school mom anymore, nor a dance mom either. My daughter is all grown. She has her own place and is 26 already. Still waiting for grandkids. Lol
Well, let’s see what had happened in ten years….
2013 my mom discovered she had cancer and passed in 2014
2015 I decided to move NJ and went to cosmology school in NYC.
2016 came back to live in Floria
2019 sold my house an bought a new one
And Since then my life and interest had shifted a little. My interests still the same. I still do my crafts and enjoy having my family around. I think that will never change.
Little by little I’ll post pictures from those ten years to help you catch up with me. I guarantee you, that it would be so much fun.giAGarciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16047336186765448132noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1301033437114026441.post-6529472648858624732013-03-20T21:26:00.001-07:002013-03-20T21:26:40.934-07:00A great find! 20 March 2013<div align="left">
Hello everyone!</div>

<div align="left">
It's only a few more days before I go on vacation! I can't wait! But, before I go I have to show all of you a great find that I came across in my husband's office.</div>

Can you believe it? This is amazing. I have a tone of old pictures I would love to scrapbook one day of course and this tool will come very handy. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
I had to give it a try immediately, so here is a page I started. I'm missing the title because I didn't have the right color of alpha for it, and I was too lazy to use my Cricut. My inspiration for this picture came from <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/mercytiara?feature=g-high-rec" target="_blank">Mercytiara</a>. </div>

Hello everyone, </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
It's been a long time since I've posted. I've missed it though. I've just been so busy, and part of it is because I decided to start doing Project Life. I started kind of late in the year, end of February to be exact, but I think it's going pretty well so far. I'm not using what most all of you are using or doing. First, I'm not doing a 12 x 12 layout. I'm working on a 8.5 x 11 layout, and I'm doing a week per page, not a two page layout. The reason why is because I really wanted just to try and see if I really like Project Life or not, and so far I'm loving it. I think that I might be changing to a two page layout when I have more things to share about that week. I don't understand why it took me so long to start Project Life.</div>
<div align="left">
Other than that everything is well. Health is getting better; I'm exercising a little more and I'm setting new goals every day. </div>
<div align="left">
I'm getting ready to go on vacation soon, which I've been waiting for I don't even know for how long. </div>
<div align="left">
Stay tuned for pictures of my PL and vacation!</div>
<div align="left">

Happy St. Patrick's Day!</div>

Hello everyone, </div>
<div align="justify">
</div>
<div align="justify">
Today was a really crazy day. I started the day taking my daughter to her Physical Therapy appointment for her ankle. Nothing big, but she needs to stregnthen her left ankle in order to continue doing well in ballet. I came back home and, to my surprise, I had a package waiting for me by the door. I wasn't expecting it until next week, but woo hoo! I had taken advantage of a little sale that is going on on Cricutmachine.com and this is what I bought:</div>

Yes, believe it or not, I did not have a Yourstory until today, but even though I had the same paper trimmer, I ordered the bundle. $30.00 I mean come on! You can't let that pass!</div>

I always wanted the Cricut stuffed animal, but for some reason I've never ordered it, and I'm glad I didn't because it just cost me $5.99!</div>

Another item I didn't have was a silicone sleeve protector for my Gypsy, so I went ahead and ordered two. A pink one and the cherry blossom one. $3.00 each.</div>

I believe I got a pretty good deal with everything.</div>
<div align="justify">
</div>
<div align="justify">
</div>
<div align="justify">
Ok, going back to my day, of course I had to stop to open that box. Right after I took care of my dogs, I cooked and before I noticed it, it was time to leave the house again to take my daughter to get some pictures taken for some auditions she is going to in the next few weeks.</div>
<div align="justify">
</div>
<div align="justify">
I left my daughter at the dance studio, I came back home to take care of the dogs again and did some laundry. While that was going on, I vacuumed, cleaned my kitchen, answered some emails, made some phone calls, and <span style="background-color: yellow;">OMG!</span> it is time to go and get my daughter again. </div>
<div align="justify">
<br />
I picked up my daughter, and on my way back home she told me that she was very hungry and that she couldn't wait to get back home, so, I stopped to get her some food and she said, no mom, I don't want you to buy me food, I want to invite you to dinner, you do so much for me. Isn't that sweet from her. We went to Pollo Tropical and the food was delicious. <br />
<br />
Now we are finally home, very tired, but as I promised, here I am making sure I blogged.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hello everyone, after almoust a year out, my daughter has convinced me to come back to my blog. First of all I have to be grateful to God for keeping me alive, to my dauhter and husband for always support me and last but not least I have to mention that during the past few months I have been watching videos on YouTube that have been very inpirational to me. And I will like to say thanks to those people that indirectly touched my heart and kept me going: The Pink Stamper, Crafty Gemini, Cricutologist32820, Organized like Jen, etc. It is been so long and a very busy year between homeschooling, driving my daughter to and from ballet, crafting, my dogs, being a house wife, etc, etc, ah and I cannot forget the fibromyalgya, But I am back and with the support of all of you I'll be doing my best to keep you up to date in everything that is going on in New Life New Beginning. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the next few days I will be posting pictures of my latest projects. So stay tuned to everything new that is to come.</div>

<br />
Welcome to my first blog hop. I am so honor to have an excellent group of ladies who decided to take the challenge with me and be part of this blog hop with such a short notice.<br />
Today I want to let everyone know that I am also a Fibromyalgia patient and I don't want anybody to think that we can't do things. We just do them in different ways. It may take us longer but we get there. To all Fibromyalgia patients, please know that you are not alone. We are here for each other. There is HOPE for everyone. <br />
HOPE is my inspiration for my project. Please enjoy.<br />

<strong><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">11 MAY 2012 " Anything Purple"</span></strong></div>
<br />
<strong>Hello everyone, </strong><br />
<br />
<strong>We are getting ready for our first blog hop. First of all I want to thank the ladies that, while knowing this was a last minute thing, decided to take the challenge and help me by participating in this blog hop. It has really been a challenge for me to put it together. So far I think we are on the right track to a successful blog hop. This is an important cause because we all know someone in our life who suffers from this disease, maybe even the person sitting next to you for the last couple of crops. Most of the time no one knows in how much pain that person is in, and just think they look healthy and fine. And this is the reason this blog hop was created. To acknowledge our friends and let them know that we are there for them. </strong><br />
<strong>Now moving on to the rules for the hop. As we all know the theme is "Anything Purple". It can be a card, a scrapbook page, a decoration, etc. Let your imagination take you to the next level. Just think on making a Fibromyalgia patient to feel better, "be there for them". When you post your project please talk a little about what really inspired you to participate and to make your project.</strong><br />
<strong>You are might be wondering if there is a prize for this hop. Yes, there is a prize. It will be a bag full of purple things, from scrapbooking supplies to personal items. You won't be disappointed. Also, Mrs. Alma Brooks from Alma's Pink life is having a Silhouette gift card that she is going to incorporate as a prize for her post. </strong><br />
<strong>To be eligible for the prizes you have to follow my blog and everyone else's blog that is in this hop. You also must leave me and the ladies a comment in order to qualify for the prize. You get one entry for each comment you leave at each blog. If you choose not to make a comment on one of the hops you will get one entry but you won't get the +1 entry you would get if you make a comment on all hops. The bonus entry (8+1).</strong><br />
<strong>Thank you and good luck with your comments!</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>HERE IS THE GREAT LINE UP FOR THE BLOG HOP</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>I don't want you to miss any of the great projects these ladies have put together. I have faith that the team has been working hard for this event with just a couple of days to put it together.</strong><br />

<center></center>I totally understand this is a last minute message, but next Saturday is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day and I would like to host a blog hop to honor all scrapbookers and cardmakers that suffer from this condition. I have never hosted a blog hop before but for a cause like this I am willing to try, I have prizes fot the comments, the onlything I am missing is a couple of people willing to participate. The theme will be "Anything Purple" (a card, a decoration, a scrapbook page) be creative, something to let our fibromyalgia friends that we are here for them. The blog hop will go live Saturday at midnight EST and it would close for comments 48 hrs later. <br /> I know we all know someone with this condition, and just think about making that person feel better. That would be your motivation. <br /> If you are interested in participating please PM me as soon as you can.<br /> Thank you so much for your support.<br /> AlicegiAGarciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16047336186765448132noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1301033437114026441.post-56335534787649121752012-05-06T21:46:00.001-07:002012-05-10T23:36:09.392-07:006 May 2012 I'm back!<br />
<br />
Hi everyone, <br />
<br />
Sorry took me a couple of weeks to get back to my blog, hope everyone understands, I know you will because all of you are such a good friends and followers. But let's stop talking about that and let me start talking about what I did during the last couple of weeks. I have been a little busy with my daughter ( I homeschool her), working in some home projects and, of course, my crafts and my projects.<br />
<br />
Here are the pictures of my haul:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So let's start with Michaels:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I found this pair of scissors right at the register and it cost me just $1.49. I've used them already and they work pretty well.</div>

Usually Enamel accents sell for $5.99 or more, I found this at Michaels on clearance for only $1.99</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That was amazing!</div>

I used to have the Martha Stewart set of glitter but I gave them to my sister and now I didn't have a set, so I couldn't let this deal pass. 50% off, so I paid just $14.99.</div>

In the next two pictures we have some recollections flowers that were on clearance for $4.99, both border punches from EKsuccess were 40% off and I believe I paid $7.99 for one and $8.99 for the other one. The Recollection Stamp set was on clearance for only $2.99 and finally I used my 40% coupon to buy some refill tape for my ATG gun.</div>

So, these concludes Michaels' haul. Let's move to Walmart now.</div>

I went to Walmart and the first thing I saw as soon I walked in to the store was the book The Magic by Rhonda Byrne. I had heard about this book on DulceCandy's blog and she said so many amazing things about this book that I couldn't let it pass. So the regular price was $12.99 but it was 20% off so I paid only $10.39 for it. Of course I will give my review as soon as I finish the book</div>

Of course I have to stop by the craft section at Walmart, so I ended up buying a set of Inkadinkado inks in earth tones. Two buttlerflys punches from EKsuccess, and a new hot glue gun with fine tip.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Stopped by the scrapbooking section and I found some new Studio G products, paper tape in different colors, some metallic markers, and rhinestones in a flower shape. Also, at the clearance section Walmart had some Cricut lite cartridges so I decided to take DUDE! because I don't have that many cartridges dedicate to boys. Ah, and some ink too.</div>

Like always at the last minute when I am about to go and pay I discovered new Fisckars kids stamps which I thought there were perfect for kids' parties or when you have a card making party at your house you don't have to worry about the kids using your good stamps (I know I do). I believe I paid $2.79 each.<br />

And last but not least I wanted to show you about my new nail polish my husband brought me from Puerto Rico. I have never been able to find this brand here in the US, so if you know a place please let me know immediately because I love this brand of nail polish. This nail polish brand is Bettina and this particular one I am using is called Pink Bikini. In the picture it looks kind of red but in reality is a hot pink. Gorgeous<br />

I'll be talking about make up a little bit just because I have a few requests from some friends from the Ballet company were my daughter dances (I do there professional makeup during shows). And we might add a little bit of fashion....who knows.<br />
<br />
Just stay tune for what is coming up. Bye!<br />

Hello everyone!<br />
<br />
Today has been an excellent day. Although I have been crafting for years I am new to posting my projects on facebook and my blog. So for the last two days I decided to dedicate a little more time to facebook and this is what happened. I posted a picture of the card I made for my daughter's friend that got accepted to the Swedish Royal Ballet and the Sympathy Card and I got a lot of positives feedback. It made me feel so good. Not only that, I also was able to make over fifty new friends in like three hours I was online. I was able to talk to some of them. I had a long conversation with a lady from Argentina, who told me she was so inpired by my cards. Isn't that awesome? The time went so fast that when I checked my clock was almost one o' clock in the morning and I still had to post on my blog. Wow, Thanks everyone for your support.<br />
<br />
Have a blessed day and stay tuned!giAGarciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16047336186765448132noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1301033437114026441.post-57407882129596242052012-04-20T10:29:00.002-07:002012-04-20T16:47:05.797-07:00Sympathy Card<strong></strong><br />

Hello everyone!<br />
<br />
Although I love making cards, today I had to make one for something I don't like. A sympathy card for one of my daughter's ballet classmate who just lost her grandfather. It is so hard when a person looses a family member. I wish no one has to go through. So, even though I enjoyed making the card, I know for a fact that the person reciving the card at the other end won't be that happy.<br />

As I have mentioned in my last blog, I really want to catch up with everything that is happening in my life and around me. Let me start commenting about a very great news for us. Like you all know I am the proud mother of a sixteen year old who loves to dance. So in the last couple of weeks her best friend from ballet class got accepted to the Swedish Royal Ballet. She is an excellent dancer and a wonderfull human being. She has worked so hard for this moment that all of us around her can feel what she is feeling at this moment. My entire family is so proud of you, like you are one of us. So of course, we cannot let the opportunity pass to make her a handmade card to congratulate her. Hope you enjoy all the time to come. Here is a picture of the card we made to make you understand how proud we all are of you.<br />

Another thing I want to mention is that Tanner (MrCricutcrazy), who has been coaching me with my blog "thank you Tanner", has a member of his design team who just had a baby boy and another member who is expecting a baby girl "Congratulation to both of them on their new baby". So I decided to make both of them a little something for their babies, and this is what I came up with.<br />

Hello everyone, <br />
<br />
It has been almost a month since I last blogged.<br />
A lot of things have happened. Let me start with a book a read that made me laugh so much, Joshua by Josheph F. Girzone. Great book, I would recomed it to everyone. Also my friend told me that there is another book called Joshua and the Children from the same author that I should read.<br />
<br />
I went to see "The Hunger Games" movie, even though my sexteen year old daughter dragged me to go see it. I LOVED IT!!! I enjoyed the movie, but my daughter was a bit dissappointed, becuase she had read the books before hand. I still say everyone should go see it.<br />
<br />
I have done a few crafts, including scrapbooking projects and cards. I will post pictures from everything soon, I promise.<br />
<br />
In my upcoming blogs I will be sharing some information about makeup and body care products I've used and loved.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned!<br />

Hello everyone,</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
Today's blog will be a little different. Enstead of talking about crafts, I am going to talk about what we ladies do to make ourselves more pretty than what we already are. Remember, we are always BEAUTIFUL, please don't forget that. In this busy life that we all have,we sometimes tend to forget that we even have nails if we don't have a scheduled nail appointment. Or at least that's what happens to me. So today I decided to give my self a little manicure. I filed my nails and shaped them, cleaned the edges and then applied some nail polish. And this is the result:</div>

<br />
Hi everyone, sorry I was gone for so long, I just needed to help a friend that was sick. Of course these past few days I was running around trying to get everything organized like a normal mom on a regular week. But now I am back, ready to take care my blog and everybody that likes to read and comment onto my blog. So here we go with the instructions for the card I made for the Pink Stamper Blog Hop, I have to confess this is my first time to a blog hop.<br />
1. Piece of dark green card stock from S<span style="background-color: white;">tampin'</span> Up 5 1/2in x 4 1/4 in. Scored in half.<br />
<br />
2. Piece of light green card stock from S<span style="background-color: white;">tampin'</span> Up 5 1/4in x 4 in, clipped the edges of the top part with Creative Memories decorative corner punch.<br />
<br />
3. The bird was made out of DCWV as well as the little hat.<br />
<br />
4. The grass was with a really little piece a paper from <span style="background-color: white;">Fiskars</span>.<br />
<br />
5. The stamps used were from Studio G and the ink from Stampin' Up.<br />
<br />
6. The card should not have any problems fitting in an A2 envelope.<br />
<br />
So this was the first part of my blog; now to the second part. Today I received a box from Joann's on line, so we can say that we had a mini haul of scrapbooking products:<br />

Hi everyone! Today is an amazing day. Sometimes we forget all the blessing we have. Let's thank the Lord for it. <br />
<br />
Did you know you can learn so much from our young friends? Today I had a conversation with a teenager who explained so many things to me that made me think, Is this teenager so mature or have I not grown up yet???<br />
<br />
BTW, I would try to get the instructions on how I made the card tomorrow.giAGarciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16047336186765448132noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1301033437114026441.post-84907262856200712542012-03-11T20:56:00.003-07:002012-03-11T20:56:48.219-07:00<br />

Today I decided I wanted to add a project for the Pink Stamper March Blog Hop. So here is the picture of the card I created. Let me know what you think.<br />
