Sunset.

Well, yesterday I  suddenly looked at the sky, and this amazing colors appeared. I got too excited. And ran like Remi when he listens the word food. Got to the roof, and took a million pictures. I just realized  how much I love nature, and its capacity of being something more than beautiful. I mean, maybe some others don't even realized what a pretty sunset was at the other side of the window. Sometimes all that technologic stuff takes us apart from these. Almost every time I look at the landscape.. I try to imagine how it would look without all the cables, houses, roads, and cars. (I know some of you may have imagined that too:) But well, it is amazing how after all these things we've done to our home. It is still giving us this kind of gifts.

A warm hug, Monica. (I'll post more often.. sorry about that)

The solar system.


Hello there! Well, today I got an inspiration attack so, I took some paints, my guitar, and a lovely picture of our solar system.. and things ended up like this! I love music, and playing instruments is a big part of my life, I play the piano since I was 3 years old. (thanks to my dad, who was a great pianist) and know I'm starting to learn how to play the guitar in school, I'm sure I'm not the best, but I'm working on it. These needs a lot of practice and patience. I guess that's why my sister doesn't play any instrument -.-! haha. Hope you all had a great weekend! And try to put your best face for monday D:  xoxo. Monica

In case you want to do the same with your guitar,  using acrylic paints, apply a white base with the shape of the design, then add the colors, and mark the details with black. You can add some varnish for the finishing and you are done (:

NY things :3


NY stuff from monicutte on Vimeo.
This is a small video sharing with you some of the things I got in NY :3 Hope you love them as much as I do! Hugs, Monica.

I'm back!

Well, Hello!!!! :D we're back from NY! I mean, not until now, but I had exams and all that stuff and I didn't have time to sit down and start posting properly (: but now I want to tell you a bit about the trip! We went there to celebrate my 15th birthday! (here in mexico it is supposed that at that age a great party should be made) but I don't like to make parties, I prefer going to them XD so we decided that a trip was a better option. We got there  and it was cold, really cold! But after some time we got used to it. As you can imagine we went to many shops! Some awesome museums! The Met, the MoMA, and the Natural History Museum, I can't choose a favorite one, everything inside them is more than amazing. I leave you some photos :3 I'll do a video with all the pretty stuff we got there! (too many things) Hope you are all having a nice weekend, xo. Monica


(this was too cute..)

Beatles love indeed





















Hello there!! Well, I am super excited to share with you this awesome gift my mom and dad gave me as an advanced gift for my 15th birthday. I am a HUGE fan of the Beatles, so I guess this is the dream of every beatlemaniac, the complete collection of vinyls! From the Album Please Please me to the Past Masters! I am still dying of happiness. I can't think of a better birthday gift. THANK YOU mom and dad (: 


Sisters


Hey there! Well, yesterday I was drawing a bit and decided to paint some dolls, these ones are like a small portrait of my sister and I, (we are not blond, but I don't have a dark brown marker;) anyways, Angie would be the one on the left, she is really different of me.. we look alike (everyone says so..) but she gets angry faster than me, but she is great making up-dos and any kind of thing that has to be with hair. She also has a different taste in music, she loves 1D and Katy Perry, you know, more like pop. Meanwhile I prefer Hard Rock. We are sisters, and if you have a sister you should know that fights are everyday stuff. We don't fight at all, we just keep on discussing and teasing each other, just as in every family (: but well, I have to admit that without her explosive personality the house would be totally silenced and even boring.. my mom, dad, and I are calmed.. in the sense that we don't make much noise, the noise my small sister normally does. Do you have brothers? :) I don't have a big family, just some cosigns and that's it! Well, I really hope you have a lovely day! xoxo.

Music lovers


Hey there! Well, I just made some little drawings of girls with t-shirts of bands I love, Guns n' Roses.. I just adore Axl Rose and Slash, the bad part is that they aren't together anymore, and Axl changed a lot since the separation happened, anyways their music is just amazing! I think their best song is November rain (: Then, well.. The Rolling Stones!! I love them more than I love food. Their style, and their songs.. I just can't choose a favorite one. Nirvana.. at first I have to say I love the name, it means a way of thinking, relaxed, without worries, something like Hakuna Matata :D hahah, the music is GREAT! I just love Kurt's voice. AC DC, well, this was sort of the first rock band I liked, their music is more than good. (and I mean it:) The Beatles, well.. I can't describe them with words! I am a huge fan of them, sometimes a bit obsessive, but it is all because I love them! Which is your favorite band? 

It's been a long time, but now I am getting more homework.. and I try to get "quality over quantity" So, thanks for stoping by! I've missed you. Have a nice day! xoxo.

Lately...

Well, I know it has been a while since I dont blog! But I just gotta say.. this Monday I start going to SCHOOL D: nooo! haha, I have to admit I like to learn, but I'm not a huge fan of homework...! I am also going to miss vacations so much. Anyways, I am getting ready with the books, pencils, notebooks, etcetera, etcetera, and it's something I actually enjoy (: There are some new things around here, I just got a pair of pencil shoes from ModCloth, and I have to say I love them! (they actually fit to the conversation theme of above:) I also learned another way of getting remi to look at the camera, I just hold a small piece of cheese and place it above the lens, so he is just thinking of the cheese and I take photos of him!


see? :3 I posted some more photos on Remi's blog.

Oh, I also made myself a Rolling Stones shirt! I sometimes envy my sister because her name is "Angie", if you are a Rolling Stone's fan you will understand (; Well, that's all for today! Have a nice day lovelies! xo.

PS. I will upload the layout's video today in a while. (finally!) 

Adelle



Today I made a small drawing of Adelle, I really love her, her music, her philosophy! She is the kind of woman I take as an inspiration. I used Acrylics over fabric, it took a while, but I really liked it. (I just got new supplies so I'll be posting new DIYs) Also.. Today Mexico WON our first gold medal! Every one is really really happy right now!! I even made a little poncho for Remi ^_^
Have a great day! xo. Monica

meet Sally














Hi there! Well, I just want to introduce you this new member of the family! It is sort of a long story, my mom came home last week, but we were a bit worried because she arrived two hours late! We just saw her opening the car and this lovely Beagle came out of it. She said she was going round and round a small park that is outside my house. So she picked her up, and hours after we gave her a bath and a name (: She is the sweetest dog I've ever met. She just wants to sleep next to you. (just as Remi) We are still taking some time to introduce Remi and Sally, but I'm sure they'll be great friends! I have to say we've got a crush with Sally's eyes. at first she had a small infection, but after some medicines she is all right! Hope you have an awesome day! xo. Monica

It's been a Hard day's night.

I'm still happy about the great reaction to the sponsor swaps! (: just some more coding and it will be all done! 
I'm also getting more into painting (once again) So these are a few pictures of my version of "A hard Day's night" album from the Beatles (I just love them..) But well, I don't know but today it was one of those days you just want to stay in bed watching TV and eating Nutella. I just feel lazy.. hahah (I have to admit I'm still in pajamas) But well, watching the Olympic games, painting for a while, and playing with little Remi made my day perfect! How was your day? xo. 



A small drawing

Today I woke up listening to some music (: and suddenly Muse appeared in my playlist, it was "Uprising" .. I have to admit I am in love with Muse, I just love their music! So, as I want to decorate a bit more my room I decided to make a drawing of their album called "The resistance" At first I got a bit uhm.. tired? (: haha because they were way too much colors! and lots of blues.. ! But well, after some hours of work, I got what I wanted :3 I just hope you like it too! Have a lovely day! xo. Monica

PS. I've been checking the sponsor stuff and I'll email you later on (: I am really happy so manny lovely bloggers want to participate ^_^ I'll definitely accept more than 5 spots! 





a Remi Blog

Yesterday I started making a blog for  little Remi, it is just for some random and fun stuff! Photos, and some cartoons. We hope you like it! You can visit "a Remi blog" I'll be posting daily stuff, as it is easier just to post cute pics and cartoons than making more structured posts like the ones I like to do for The First Lime. I'll be answering all the emails I've got from lovely readers today (: I'm just getting more and more every time, which is awesome, but also a tough work, so please be comprehensive, I try my best to reply them all but sometimes it is too overwhelming for me. Have an awesome day! xo.

Remi cartoons

Today I was making some doodles, and ended with some little drawings of Remi. I just took a photo, but I guess I'll do more stuff with this "new" drawings. Keep inspired! xo. Monica
