<br />
**Doing the walk/typing of shame here**<br />
<br />
Last time I came by, I said I would start posting every week or more (Don't want to check... too ashamed again), and here I am, 6... *****6***** months later!<br />
<br />
Well, let's give this blog the love it deserves by posting a card I made for my 4-year old nephew! He is in France so I miss a lot... but still, I know he is into dragons! (Just this morning, some dragons decided to attack his <i>Playmobils.</i>)<br />
<br />
Sooo, I used some Lawn Fawn stamps, Spellbinders dies and beautiful papers to put my dragon in the sky!<br />
<br />

It seems that time slips through my hands... And when I get to be home, I am too lazy to post... SUCH A SHAME!!<br />
<br />
So, I decided to take advantage of my Christmas cards to be better. I'll try and post at least two to three times a week!<br />
<br />
And I start with a simple card I made using some Lawn Fawn goodies...<br />
<br />

<br />
It was pretty simple to make. I die cut the tree on the top panel, stamped the corresponding tree on the bottom one... Used some CAS-ual Friday sentiment at the bottom and put some stickles on top to have it stand out a bit more. I drew some faux stitching around and I finished it off with a silver star.<br />
<br />
If I want to make it through the month, I believe it would be safer to keep it short and sweet!<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CARD:</span></b><br />
<br />
* It's quite original in terms of colours<br />
* It's soft<br />
* I used quite a few products<br />
<br />
Talk to you soon!!<br />

<br />
A dear friend of mine mentioned that I hadn't posted in forever... And now I see that it's been a month again... SOOOooOOOO, I guess it's time for me to post, indeed!<br />
<br />
If everything goes well, my fiancé and I should get married in Sept. in France. I am planning on displaying a few pages as a decoration :) Since my family is from France and his is from Tunisia, telling our story means telling our everyday.. And this includes my lovely kitty cat!<br />

For this page, I used a <a href="http://www.studiocalico.com/blog/2013/6/23/sunday-sketch-monika">Studio Calico sketch.</a> It was pretty simple but I love those kind of grid designs. And, for once, I'm happy with the result :)<br />

"Whyyyy?" Well.. I'm happy you ask! I made kind of a subway art/ombre background in blue. I took different sizes and font of letter stickers that I gessoed. Once dried, I painted the top ones in blue, then added more and more white to the blue paint in order to get a lighter blue.</div>

<br />
See how it's been two days and not two months??<br />
<br />
I am up with a new card today... I used <a href="http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/gallery/projects/videos/1907598-213-in-2013-our-beach-life/">this LO from Corrie Jones</a> as an inspiration and I must admit that I am really happy with the result!<br />

<br />
So, once again, I've been REALLY bad!! But, I promise that I a really going to try and get better.<br />
<br />
I made this card before Christmas, but I never got around to sharing it. And, since I really liked it, I thought I could share it now, even if the good weather is FINALLY here! In Montréal, we've finally had a REALLY nice week, over 20 °C.<br />
<br />
Anyway, back to the card... :)<br />

I used some acetate as a base and then, mounted it all until I was finally happy. I don't have a sewing machine, so I stitched by hand and tried doing two different stitches for a little interest.<br />
<br />
It made me happy because it's different and I used different things. For example, the little card that says "joy" is from EP. The vellum at the back? It's the negative from a snowflake I cut out. Annnd, I finally used washi tape, so that pretty much rocks in my book! Always happy when I throw a little here and there.<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #b45f06;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT</span></b><br />
<br />
* It's different from what I usually do. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and I like it!<br />
* Washiiiiiiii (if you didn't get it the first time)<br />
* Am I allowed to say.................................................. EVERYTHING???<br />
<br />
Well, I thank you for stopping by and I will try and be good, post soon!<br />
<br />
Thank youuuuuuu,<br />

<br />
See, aren't I gettn better? I didn't let three months go by this time!!<br />
<br />
I'm here today with a monochromatic layout I created recently. It makes me really happy for various reasons: 1- I have been wanting to create a monochromatic LO for a while, 2- I used some stuff from many different collections :)<br />
<br />
Soooooo, without further ado, there you go:<br />

I had fun without <span style="color: #bf9000;"><b>mists</b></span> on this background! What I did is that I put a bit of mist on the top and bottom, and then I blew with a straw. And this created this fun pattern.<br />
<br />
I decided to be a bit more creative. So, even if I had no power on the outcome, I decided to use it anyway! And I think I really like the result.<br />
<br />

<br />
OH MY GOD! It's been way too long... As they say, life got in the way. Lot of work... went to visit my family in France during the holidays, then back to work.<br />
<br />
I have been creating a bit, but not as much as I would have liked... And I didn't <strike>find</strike> take the time to blog.<br />
<br />
But I decided that it was over and that I needed to take control over my life!<br />
<br />
So, I decided to do a 365 project and to take one picture a day! I am sharing them every day on my Instagram (depjoha). Hope you can visit and that the little snippets of my life are somewhat interesting! :)<br />
<br />
I came back with a card today!<br />
<br />
I created it with last week <a href="http://studiocalico.typepad.com/.a/6a0133f3181fde970b017d40ae3506970c-pi">Studio Calico card sketch</a> and the<a href="http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/shop/american-crafts/131568-ready-set-go-6x6-paper-pad/?filters=_ready_set+go_"> "Read Set Go" 6x6 pad</a>.<br />

<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT:</span></b><br />
<br />
* I used some Studio Calico wood veneer that I love so much<br />
* I used some washi (the blue on the right)<br />
* I used some mist...<br />
* I also got inspiraed by Tracy (<a href="http://mercytiara.blogspot.ca/">Mercytiara</a>) : I just loooove the way she traces around her pieces and I started doing it as well :)<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm going to go now... Quick post... Baby steps to get back to it :)<br />
<br />
I wish you a great day and thank you for stopping by!<br />

<br />
I am really happy with my Sunday... Weather was crappy as, but I managed to finish a LO and make three cards.<br />
<br />
I am going to share with you today the one I made for one of Two Peas challenges :)<br />
<br />
Here is the sketch and original card:<br />
<br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT</span></b><br />
<br />
* It gave me the opportunity to use some washi! Oddly enough, my collection is growing, but I can't seem to create much with it<br />
* I really love the colours :)<br />
* What I like about cards in general is that it allows you to use your stamps<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">PRODUCTS USED</span></b><br />
<br />
The washi and the stamp come from "The sweetest thing" collection by My Mind's eye.<br />
<br />
<br />
Well, I wish you all a great week, I guess it's time to go to work :)<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
Once again, long time no see! I hate it but I can't seem to reverse the trend! I'll try to do better though!<br />
<br />
Today, I am sharing a page I created using a <a href="http://blog.basicgrey.com/?p=4439">BG sketch</a>!<br />
I stayed pretty true to it :) I liked that it allowed me to incorporate 4 pictures :)<br />
Since those are pictures from my brother's wedding, I used the Hello Luscious collection from BG.<br />
<br />
So, here we go:<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
* I used quite a few dies! I like it because I feel like I don't wast my money on equipment I don't use</div>
<div>
* For once, I thought about painting some supply I have to adapt them to the LO. And I wasn't scared of giving it a try! (And it worked wonderfully).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
All in all, this is not my favorite LO, but I like it anyway. It's good to get back into things!</div>

<div>
I wish you all a great week :)</div>

<br />
What a GREAT name, isn't it? I think "Gaston" is way cute! That name always makes me smile, I don't know why... I always imagine a cute grandpa... But in this case, it's my kitty cat... Or, rather, my cat the day he arrived in my life.<br />
<br />
For this page, I haven't used any sketch, but I am sure you can recognize Shimelle's placement for the pics.<br />
<br />
There you go:<br />

I am really sorry for the bad pics. We had the choice between "not enough light" or "a huge glare"... So I put both and you can do a puzzle!<br />

<br />

For my next LO, I stepped a bit out of my comfort zone, and I am quite happy with the result! Be sure to stop by and have a look :)<br />

Have a great week!<br />

<br />
So, since I was able to get home EARLY from work, I decided that I would schedule a new post.<br />
<br />
Today, I am sharing I made without a sketch, using the "Sketchbook" line from Amy Tangerine. I love all the bright and happy colours. Hurts to cut into the pages, but I don't regret it :) I even got the brads and stickers, all the line is just so awesome!<br />
<br />
So, here is my LO<br />

<br />
Once again, it's been way too long... REALLY LONG!<br />
<br />
Today, I am up with a card I created for a friend's birthday this week. At first, I had a whole different idea (I wanted to stamp and colour a heart border) but it bled and I had to re-start everything.<br />
<br />
So, I made this CAS card and I LOOOOVE it!<br />

<br />
I embossed, stamped, layered and embellished... And TADA!<br />
<br />
There you have it, a quick project for my "come-back"... which, I hope, is going to be more regular!<br />
<br />
I wish you all a great day and will make sure to read you soon :)<br />
<br />

<br />
It's been a while... but here I am with a new page, created between some biking and room painting!<br />
<br />
I started this page with an Imaginisce sketch. I can't participate in the challenge, but I am still sharing the love! :)<br />
<br />
So, <a href="http://www.imaginisceblog.com/2012/06/monthly-challenge-mays-winner.html">here is the sketch</a>:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiejdx7tSSczOZH3UtKzf8t83eGo4tNRrFzV3wkGmxa7GOs-bXzvg-INx2uIkWdP4_QKY-fYwFQPAbluiNLXtxInmOdDUUNIM1VYck8kvl5ffSzwPdVWISUgSKWgTuNQfUw16N8AtJSGh0/s1600/Imaginisce_June2012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiejdx7tSSczOZH3UtKzf8t83eGo4tNRrFzV3wkGmxa7GOs-bXzvg-INx2uIkWdP4_QKY-fYwFQPAbluiNLXtxInmOdDUUNIM1VYck8kvl5ffSzwPdVWISUgSKWgTuNQfUw16N8AtJSGh0/s320/Imaginisce_June2012.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
And here is what I came up with:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRQpFIoR2RmjdEmAvYtmnIXXZg56UoPQWILoVoLUhu18BFyt99OEn2DmfiOsEKkdTojPy2AcjVvvMfbomEOuEHvXFkK9CEpzNMrHtiFOTA3-ZsYHLyE6O22FQl9Dckj13gDVPt0PLkMik/s1600/2012-06-24+You+two+are+my+sunshine+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="264" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRQpFIoR2RmjdEmAvYtmnIXXZg56UoPQWILoVoLUhu18BFyt99OEn2DmfiOsEKkdTojPy2AcjVvvMfbomEOuEHvXFkK9CEpzNMrHtiFOTA3-ZsYHLyE6O22FQl9Dckj13gDVPt0PLkMik/s320/2012-06-24+You+two+are+my+sunshine+(2).JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

<br /><br /><br /><b><span style="color: #bf9000;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO</span></b><div>
<br /></div>
<div>
* I used the sketch as a starting point, I didn't stay too close</div>
<div>
* I mainly used two PP. To get the one with writing on it, I cut the background one under the picture :) The polka dots ont comes from a journaling element page thing! :)</div>
<div>
* I feel like everything flows in this LO</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000;"><b>STASH USED</b></span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
* The papers. I got them in April, and couldn't cut them out.. But I'm finally glad I did</div>
<div>
* I used some washi tape, YAY!</div>

<br />
Long time again :) But I am back today with a bright and happy LO I made about my beautiful nephew!!<br />
<br />
I used a <a href="http://blog.basicgrey.com/?p=3178">sketch from BG</a> to make it<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMp_EaZnc_u7_JLcfSqwD7tghyphenhyphenz3mMXm6oov6MQ9KooOgiaMgjsNklbB6okajd1vFgVEzFIUMrorvxL_BXLf-XIqPqPI2hOj46vreqLyC0LnAicp3NMXLo5WfcKdl6KA9wMog1FJ5J9Dk/s1600/bg-528-sketch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="319" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMp_EaZnc_u7_JLcfSqwD7tghyphenhyphenz3mMXm6oov6MQ9KooOgiaMgjsNklbB6okajd1vFgVEzFIUMrorvxL_BXLf-XIqPqPI2hOj46vreqLyC0LnAicp3NMXLo5WfcKdl6KA9wMog1FJ5J9Dk/s320/bg-528-sketch.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
And here is my take:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghhKXgXQPBzOftiUWM6qtfg43fFh6sa46nGncwKdtd34IoZ_w_XJcY384pBUj8l43EGqwsLJnt7PmWQV25o-dVz04vmReEwrL0EkBMf8brUjLEaqp9-I8QNQ8qT0oIrfOU7a0vmw5eiZo/s1600/2012-06-09+Watch+me+(2).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghhKXgXQPBzOftiUWM6qtfg43fFh6sa46nGncwKdtd34IoZ_w_XJcY384pBUj8l43EGqwsLJnt7PmWQV25o-dVz04vmReEwrL0EkBMf8brUjLEaqp9-I8QNQ8qT0oIrfOU7a0vmw5eiZo/s320/2012-06-09+Watch+me+(2).JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

That's it for tonight, but I am pretty happy with "it" :)<br />
<br />
Here, the weather is getting pretty good... Sunny and all... And I am looking for ways to being able to scrap on the balcony.. What about you, do you scrap outside sometimes??<br />
<br />
So, have a greay day and see you soon!! :)Johannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07979233625882359120noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819810386413390941.post-26212070240971308142012-05-27T22:12:00.000-04:002012-06-04T06:52:08.890-04:00ChoupsHello again,<br />
<br />
How have you been? I hope your week is going well.<br />
<br />
Today, I am sharing a page I created a week ago using the <a href="http://www.basicgrey.com/scrapbook/shop/collections/show/current/pyrus">Pyrus collection from BG</a>. Since I only have the 6x6 pad, I had to find a way to use it, and that's what I came up with. I am not sure I am entirely satisfied with it, but it will do for now.<br />
<br />
So, there you go:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So, I used four small pages to create quite a busy background.<br />

<br />
Unfortunately, I haven't had time to post again last week, but I am going to try and be better... I wonder how many times I've said so...<br />
<br />
Anyway, today, I am sharing a boy's page: my wonderful oldest nephew! I don't see him nearly often enough so, when I'm in France, I love spending time and playing with him! (I can't wait for Christmas to come around so I can hold and hug him!)<br />
<br />
Anyway, here is the page I made using one of my favorite boy's collection: <a href="http://echoparkpaper.com/collections/a-boys-life/">A boy's life by EP</a>.<br />
<br />
I didn't use any sketches for this one, I just went with the flow, and I am pretty happy with the result :)<br />

<br />
Verrryyyy long time no see! But today I am back with a LO about my beautiful niece... I don't even have the date of the picture, I didn't even take it, but I thought she was sooo cute that I couldn't resist scrapping it!<br />
<br />
So, I decided to use some EP paper and went for it, without a sketch even, which is pretty rare for me.<br />
<br />

<br />
Sooooo, here is the last page I managed to make for Shimelle's cropping weekend. I enter it for <a href="http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1458/scrapbooking-challenge-mix-two-contrasting-patterns/">challenge #11: Two Patterns</a>. The goal was to mix two contrasting patterns. I chose a photo that had been sitting in my stash for quite a while because I knew which PP I wanted to use: the "Olivia" collection by BG.<br />
<br />
So, here is my take:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Thanks for looking and have a great week! :)Johannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07979233625882359120noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819810386413390941.post-45882566447648145942012-04-21T11:49:00.001-04:002012-04-21T11:49:52.051-04:00Clic clicHello everybody,<br />
<br />
I am amazed at how many posts I wrote this week! Aren't you?<br />
<br />
Today is a special day because I get to go vote for out new president. In France, everyone gets to vote and it happens in two turns. The first turn, we vote for whoever got signatures from 500 mayors and then, in two weeks, we'll be voting for one of the two "finalists". Anyway, even if I live in Canada, I get to go voting.<br />
<br />
Anyway, enough with the seriousness, let's get scrappy (not that it's any less serious). I played with another one of Shimelle's challenges: "<a href="http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1446/scrapbooking-challenge-wilna-s-inspiration-points/">Challenge 5: Inspiration Points</a>". Shimelle presented a great page by Wilna F. and we had to use it as an inspiration.<br />
<br />
So, here is my take on it:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0l_4J3K2hZHjvqhh8x95WWVSMBEp5uH436kUUTLGdad280A11NVPXOaAmIZYUoDykqbZBPAhfQ2KNv2k1lsRL2plMPwBLYUgLgzk5THSkk2wOj2RmvWSTV9D2VqLLzArPpmHGaIhOAeE/s1600/2012-04-21+Clic+Clac+(1).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0l_4J3K2hZHjvqhh8x95WWVSMBEp5uH436kUUTLGdad280A11NVPXOaAmIZYUoDykqbZBPAhfQ2KNv2k1lsRL2plMPwBLYUgLgzk5THSkk2wOj2RmvWSTV9D2VqLLzArPpmHGaIhOAeE/s320/2012-04-21+Clic+Clac+(1).JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">INSPIRATION POINTS:</span></b><br />
<br />
* I kept the idea of a picture taking the whole width, but I used two pics instead of one<br />
* I used the idea of the white butterflies on white background<br />
* I clustered on the left<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">STASH USED:</span></b><br />
<br />
* Some of the stamps ("love", "cherish")<br />
* The butterfly punch is getting "old" and I think I finally used it enough to say that I "got the best out of it"... I mean that I used it enough to say that it's not an expensive purchase anymore. I don't know how to say it in English raaaaaaaah, I hate that!<br />
* In general, I've had this paper in my stash for a while because it's the one I use to scrap my brother's wedding pics :)<br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO:</span></b><br />
<br />
* I stamped... And several times with that!<br />
* I used my Big Shot quite a lot :) And I am happy I used those dies because I must admit that I hadn't seen how expensive they were before I got home... So I need to use them big time!<br />
* I like that I made my own embellish. I had made it for another LO but hadn't used it. And I'm glad I thought about it whe making this one!!<br />
* I like how I took a LO and made it my own :)<br />

See you soon and have a great weekend!!!Johannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07979233625882359120noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819810386413390941.post-40019603230249799722012-04-19T21:34:00.000-04:002012-04-19T21:34:56.433-04:00La famille.....Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I decided to play along one of Shimelle's sketches... Too bad I haven't had time to do more of them... I'll try to finish one or two more though 'cause they were really awesome!<br />
<br />
So, this time, I chose "<a href="http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1455/scrapbooking-challenge-take-your-pick/">Challenge #9: Take your pick</a>". We had to choose an outdated challenge and play! Since I had never seen any, I chose one of the <a href="http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/showthread.php?s=2a1da71123576317a18511e608de62b0&t=327307">"UKScrappers" challenges (for March)</a>.<br />

<br />
REALLY quick post today to share a card I made for my cousin's birthday. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend the big even :( but I wanted to send him a nice card anyway!<br />
<br />
I bought a 6x6 <a href="http://bobunny.com/lightbox/alora.html">BoBunny paper pad</a> some time ago coz it was so stinkn' cute! So I knew exactly what paper I wanted to use :) And then, I tried to come up with a card on my own, no sketch or anything.<br />
<br />

I layered four hearts one on top of each other. Then, I stamped my sentiment and cut it into a banner shape. I wanted another "Congratulations" one at first, but it was too long, so I settled for this one. I also inked all the edges with "Broken China" distress ink. What is it with this blue that makes it so amazing? I also had a beautiful heart stamp that I had never really used, so I stamped it in the inside :). And I finished it off with the three rhinestones, to break the monotony!<br />

<br />
So, as planned, I didn't post last week because my dad came to visit me, together with my step-mother and my sister. It was great, it felt good to see them and I already miss them a lot!<br />
<br />
So, this week end, I tried to play along Shimelle's scrappy weekend! I used <a href="http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1439/welcome-to-the-online-scrapbooking-weekend/">the page she first posted</a> and scraplifted it, as asked.<br />
<br />
So, here is my take on the challenge:<br />
<br />

<br />
See, when I don't promise anything, I post twice in the same day!<br />
<br />
Today, I am sharing a LO I made using one of <a href="http://www.shimelle.com/paper/1426/scrapbooking-sketch-of-the-week-favourite-things-thai-style/">Shimelle's sketches</a>.<br />

<br />
Again, it's been a while... I'd like to say that I promise to get better, but I say so every time I post... so... Plus, my father, stepmother and sister are coming to visit next week (arriving on the 6th), so I know I won't be able to do much scrapbooking/blogging!<br />
<br />
Anyway, onto my new LO!<br />
<br />
I played for the "<a href="http://onceuponasketchblog.blogspot.ca/2012/03/2-more-days.html">Once upon a sketch challenge</a>"... We had to write about something we miss... Well, I miss my lovely nephew... every day... So I thought he would make for a great subject!<br />
<br />
Here is the sketch:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidJKTB67BsF_IW_DrEr-u80cWcTOAb91_s1OPzfWEctG09G4xCWr6iLU4ZVIdq9Jvt1Fa9a86ALr4FRQGRUqfLENuU0MCPWmfbXKNhPeCzP566zlOrvj64hlnu7xUIa5oPz-jOQ-sPKqc/s1600/January+15th.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidJKTB67BsF_IW_DrEr-u80cWcTOAb91_s1OPzfWEctG09G4xCWr6iLU4ZVIdq9Jvt1Fa9a86ALr4FRQGRUqfLENuU0MCPWmfbXKNhPeCzP566zlOrvj64hlnu7xUIa5oPz-jOQ-sPKqc/s320/January+15th.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO</span></b><br />
<br />
* I am happy I used various materials: stick pins, crackle paint, embossing folder<br />
* I don't know why but, even if I love MME papers, I always have a hard time using them... And here I did, and I'm happy with the result!<br />
* I have been waiting to buy a notebook border punch for a while<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #bf9000;">STASH USED</span></b><br />
<br />
* The yellow rick rack on which I applied Distress stain (I wanted to tone it down)<br />
* The brown Thickers<br />
