I played all weekend with my Studio Calico January kit. Every time I get a new kit, I always say it's my favorite kit ever, and this one is no exception...until I receive the February kit :D
Check out the gallery soon on the SC website :)
Have a great day and check back tomorrow for a new Inspiration Tuesday!
Hey everyone!
It's been a long time since I haven't blogged, don't you think? Sorry for neglecting you since Tuesday, life has been busy and I'm trying to get some relax time after almost a month of travelling everywhere for classes :)
So here are two new layouts I made lately, using the amazing Studio Calico Home Front paper line. I LOVE IT, that's it. Those of you who registered for my classes in Montpellier at Scrapzimut Days will be happy to work with it, as well as those who will take my classes in Naples and Israel :)
So, guess what? My two layout are about FOOD. Oh well. I guess it's probably I've been in NEED of good and FAT food as I've been trying to pay attention to what I eat (and guess what? I already lost 12 kilos!) but I guess I HAD to scrapbook my sweet and delicious french toasts I made a few weeks back :)
So while I'm blogging this, my CRÊPE dough is resting and I'm soon off to make some good crêpes along with sugar or nutella in a couple of minutes :)
A very colorful layout, exactly what I like at the moment. I used one of my favorite SC stamps : Story Time (which is sold out at the moment but I HOPE that it'll be back soon in store as you definitely NEED this stamp), and also Coffee Stain, some blue mist and the star stamps are in the January kit (sneak peeks soon!)
I just realized the photos are really bad so I'll try to take new ones tomorrow.
In the meantime, enjoy your Sunday!
hey everyone!
I have to admit that I can't even remember how many Inspiratino Tuesday I have been working on and I can't even give a number to this one :) There are too much of them now! :)
Today, we're not going to celebrate Christmas, I would like to celebrate friends, and a great weekend I had end of August with most of them. But, just so you know, I'm working on a cool Christmas project for next week :) You might like it :)
So, this week, a very easy to make mini album, not pretty fast to make though, as the cover takes quite a while to prepare, but fast enough to decorate.
To make this album, you'll need :
First of all, you need to cut into the cardboard and decide which size you'd like your album to measure. Then, leave about 1/2inch for the spine and be sure to have both covers of the same size.
Adhere the plumber's tape to the covers , use a stylus to doole on top of it and add the black indian ink.(You can read more about this in my book).
Once the ink is dry (and believe me, it dries pretty fast), decorate the cover with a few embellishments : you don't want to add lots to overwhelm your amazing cover.
For the inner pages, I chose to work with this Cosmo Cricket paper line as it's colorful and so cute.
I like to leave some white space in my designs, it helps your eye to focuse on the most important thing on your layout or page.
Some October Afternoon stickers, Kesiart stamp and Cosmo Cricket chipboards gather to make this first page rather simple but colorful.
As the papers are very colorful, I wanted to make it a little but clearer by using white cardstock and my whole pages are made out of American Crafts white cardstock.
You can use the same stamp and stamp it (without re-inking it every time) to add depth and texture to your white page...
Don't be scared to work on pages without any photos : sometimes words and journalling are just perfect to decorate a page.
Use stamps and your own handwriting to make a unique embellishment!
there you go :)
See you next week for a new Inspiration Tuesday project and celebrate Christmas :)
HUGS!
The winner for the Bulle 2 Scrap kit from last Thursday is :
Rhoooooooo, je craque ! ce kit est à tomber..

Bises et excellente journée !
Hey!
I'm in Paris at the moment, teaching classes, but I love Typepad and the fact that you can program your posts way ahead of time :)
So this is one of the layouts I made lately that I REALLY like. Not a size layout I'm used to doing but I'm getting used to it and LOVE it!
hugs to all!
Christmas is getting closer and closer and it's time for you to dig out all of your Christmas stuff to play with!
For this new Inspiration Tuesday, I wanted to make a layout with several photos and make wishes : so I chose THREE photos for THREE WISHES.
I'm not really into scrapping Christmas stuff, even though I really like all the products coming out at this time of the year, but I don't have any kids yet and it feels like scrapping Christmas without kids is kinda boring, but oh well, I guess I'll scrap this moment of the year way more when I am a mama :)
So why don't you make a layout about you or your kids, or husband, or friends, writing what you wish for them?
So this is what you will need to make this layout :
So THREE wishes for me. Only THREE. Well, three I can actually talk about ;)
Feel free to add more photos if you have more wishes, and you can easily make a double page layout too.
I fell in love with those Maya Road snowflakes. They're very thick and so transparent, I could use them everywhere now!
I found those small journalling notes (many different ones in one pack) while I was teaching at Made With Love in Singapore : Creative Imaginations made them I think and I wish I had bought more than one pack!
I gathered a whole bunch of embellishments around my photos in order to attract the eyes of the viewer towards the photos : felt Christmas tree, stickers, needle and flowers.
And I HAD to use those amazing American Crafts glitter alphas : yeah! It's Christmas!
Alright everyone, a new Inspiration Tuesday inspired by Christmas!
There's another project I'm working on for you guys about Christmas, I think you're going to like it, I should post it in 2 weeks! Stay tuned!
And see you on Thursday for a new GIVEAWAY!
Remember the 30 layouts I made during a whole weekend? Well here are some of them :)
Enjoy!
See you real soon for new layouts!
