Just five more minutes !

Hi everyone,

So, once again, I've been REALLY bad!! But, I promise that I a really going to try and get better.

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.

Anyway, back to the card... :)


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.

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.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT

* It's different from what I usually do. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and I like it!
* Washiiiiiiii (if you didn't get it the first time)
* Am I allowed to say.................................................. EVERYTHING???

Well, I thank you for stopping by and I will try and be good, post soon!

Thank youuuuuuu,

Hello ladies,

I am feeling good tonight because I managed to spend a few hours (with Gaston the kitty cat) in my scrapping room! I created one LO and three cards... Not much really but considering what I've been able to create lately, it's a lot!

Today, I want to share the card I made for Mojo Monday #217

I chose the square version, and here is my take:

I used Crayola glitter glue to give a little shine and a little texture to his hat! I used watercolor pencils for the whole image

Decided to stamp the sentiment inside. After all, why not?

STASH USED

* Well, I bought a huge pack of AC ribbon, so I'm happy to be using it!
* I have had that WeRMM floss for a while, so, same thing!

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT

* I bought those stamps to colour a bit... I didn't know if I would like it, but I do! Plus, those watercolour pencils are really easy to use!
* BASIC GREY paper of courrrrrrrrrrrse!!!

Hello again blogging friends,

So, here is another card I created for the CAS-ual Friday. See this post to have the guidelines.

It didn't turn out as well as in my head... Maybe the card was too big or... I don't know. Anyway, I thought I would share it anyway because I'll be sending it for sure and because we can't always share our victories, can we?

So, here it is

I think my cat is WAY MORE beautiful than all those girls you see on those TV games!

So, I found those XMAS washi tapes at Omer De Serres (for those of you who know), I stamped and embossed (in silver, as you can see) a Hero Arts greeting and some Artemio snowflakes.

There is no really stash used or anything, so you won't see my usual sections here...

TFL everyone! OOOHHH and US friends, I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving weekend!

Hello ladies,

First of all, a lil happiness to begin with this week! Let me introduce you to Gaston, the newest addition to our family! (Please excuse the quality of the picture but it was taken at night and I was a lil excited :p)



On a scrapbookier note, let me show you a card I created for a "CAS-ual Fridays" challenge (my first ever).



And here is my take


And a few close-ups

"Weathered Wood" Distress ink

"Chipped Sapphire" Distress ink

"Broken China" Distress ink

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CARD

* The white colour. To be honest, I chose it in the first place because I have a hard time finding the right coordinating colours, PP, but I like the final results

* I had used the sentiments of this stamp set but not the designs. Now, I only have one bauble left to use! *HAPPY ME*



STASH USED

* None really... Except if you consider inks like stash!

Hello everyone,

So, I've been working at this great company for a few days now... I am a bit tired (it takes time to get used to the pace of things) but I'm happy and I managed to create a card last night before I went to bed.

I created it for the Mojo Monday challenge of the week.


And here is my take on it, a rather unconventional Xmas card if you ask me... (Wait, what? You didn't ask? Well, I said it anyway... Ahah I am soo funny at 7 A.M.)

And two close-ups

A lil BG brad to dress up my rosette!

A lil embossing with my Big Shot to give it texture. I didn't have xmas texturing plates/folders though

As you may have noticed, a problem happened with the glossy accent (or the equivalent I have). Something fell on it during the drying process overnight and it left a square mark. Well, before I go, I'll put some glossy accent on this part. If the mark disappears, great.. Otherwise, I'll glossy the whole thing again tonight. I'll let you know how it goes!!


STASH USED

* The AC PP. I've had it for quite a while, since the beginning of this year, when I got seriously into scrapbooking.
* The texturing plate I used. I think I must have used them twice and I'm happy to finally be able to!!

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT
* The way the brad dressed up the rosette
* The PP used for the rosette! It ties in the whole card since it has all the right colours

Well, that's all for now... Let's brush my teeth and go to work!

Have a wonderful day :)

Hello ladies,

Today, I am sharing my 4th Xmas card! (I have more to share but I don't want to spoil you... *cough*).

For this one, I used a sketch on Mojo Monday and some Basic Grey and We R Memory Keepers products. I think I quite like the way it turned out! I'm okay with the white ink on the card since the sentiment "is written by a kid".


And here is my take:


WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT

* I used different brands on a same project
* I am happy I used this "card" as a sentiment because I fell in love with it when I saw it in the pack!
* I used a 6x6 pack... I don't know why I love them but I always feel like I couldn't use them!!

STASH USED

* The Jolee's boutique "Christmas Candies" embellies by EK Success

Hello everyone,

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! As for me, I decided to stay in and enjoy some quiet time... My fiancé went grocery shopping (isn't my life amazing today??!! hihi).

So, here is a Christmas card I created yesterday using the "Card sketch #13" from Sketch Support.


And here is my take on it


VARIATIONS FROM THE SKETCH

* I rounded the corners
* I put three mosaic squares instead of flowers (which simplified the card even more in my opinion)

STASH USED

* The said mosaic squares... I think my friend Sabine bought them three years ago when she came over to Canada and we made cool frames (it was at the very beginning of my scrapbooking adventure... I had made one page at the time and took a long time off afterwards...)

* Love craft cardstock, even if I can't find any in my LSSs

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CARD

* I have been using my stamps and inks more and more since I've started making cards! And here, I used my Jenni Bowlin "Brown Sugar" ink.
