Dia De Los Muertos

Time to Celebrate,
Dia de los Muertos—the Day of the Dead—is a holiday celebrated on November 1. Although marked throughout Latin America, Dia de los Muertos is most strongly associated with Mexico, where the tradition originated.

Dia de los Muertos honors the dead with festivals and lively celebrations, a typically Latin American custom that combines indigenous Aztec ritual with Catholicism, brought to the region by Spanish conquistadores. (Dia de los Muertos is celebrated on All Saints Day and All Souls Day, minor holidays in the Catholic calendar.)

The most familiar symbol of Dia de los Muertos may be the calacas and calaveras (skeletons and skulls), which appear everywhere during the holiday: in candied sweets, as parade masks, as dolls. Calacas and calaveras are almost always portrayed as enjoying life, often in fancy clothes and entertaining situations.
 Now that you know what this challenge is based on, won't you join us in the celebration. Hop over to

the SBS blog and enter your creation for all to OOOO and AWWW over. To find an image for you to color up go to SBS stamps and do your own SUGAR SKULL design. Here is a little inspiration from me  LENORE FOREVERMORE.

Hey Jude,,,

Hi everyone it seems its been ages since I last posted, but I moved and it took a lot of my time. we are now basically settled in and I'm back to SBS and blogging.So with that said ,there s a new challenge at SBS Steampunk. It is all about LACE use lace make it a lacy card. I was chosen to do JUDE ( we are revisiting the Roberts' family portraits) I really messed up and didn't use lace (it is a requisite for the challenge) I need to read my directions better.
