Just five more minutes !

Hello everyone,

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!

Today, I am sharing a page I created using a BG sketch!
I stayed pretty true to it :) I liked that it allowed me to incorporate 4 pictures :)
Since those are pictures from my brother's wedding, I used the Hello Luscious collection from BG.

So, here we go:

A double page, not so usual for me!

Left end side. Most of the space is taken up by the pictures.

Right end side.

Used my Big Shot and some SpellBinder die to create this banner. I added faux stitching with a white gel pen

A few cardboard shapes and again, my oh-so-loved Big Shot for the big circle

The top letters are DIY alphas by AC which I coated with Wow glitter in brown. The bottom letters are BG. Originally beige, I painted them in green with Maya Mist to fit my color scheme.

I punched the butterfly with some Martha Stewart punch.

Same SpellBinders die.

Stitching, Big Shot and Martha.

Hello everyone,

It's been a while... but here I am with a new page, created between some biking and room painting!

I started this page with an Imaginisce sketch. I can't participate in the challenge, but I am still sharing the love! :)

So, here is the sketch:


And here is what I came up with:

With a few close-ups:

Some cutting some brads...

Some layering, washi, etc.

Would a LO be complete without Mr. Huey?

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO

Hello everyone,

Long time again :) But I am back today with a bright and happy LO I made about my beautiful nephew!!

I used a sketch from BG to make it


And here is my take:


And a few close-ups:

Used S. Tidwell's technique to create banners with washi :) You'll notice that the polka dot circle comes under the red background

Stamped parts of the "Friend" def. by Hero Arts with an Adirondack dabber in Aqua. The tag was cut w/ a Tim Holtz die.

A few Hero Arts and SC ctamps :)

White circle also comes under the background. Same stamps, a few brads.

STASH USED

*All the stamps
* The paint dabber
* The Mister Huey paint
* The washi tape

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO

* The layers
* The stamping
* All the various shapes

That's it for tonight, but I am pretty happy with "it" :)

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??

So, have a greay day and see you soon!! :)

Hello again,

How have you been? I hope your week is going well.

Today, I am sharing a page I created a week ago using the Pyrus collection from BG. 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.

So, there you go:


So, I used four small pages to create quite a busy background.

Here are a few close-ups:

A small cluster at the bottom

I created a small cluster similar to what Shimelle's doing. Used some liquid pearl.

A title using some old glittery Thickers

STASH USED

* The whole Pyrus collection, which I've had for a year at least
* The Thickers

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO

* First use of Liquid pearls
* I used fibers and chipboard and punches


If you have any ideas to improve this LO, do no hesitate!!!

Thanks and have a great day :)

Hello everyone,

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!

So, I decided to use some EP paper and went for it, without a sketch even, which is pretty rare for me.

And here is what I came up with:


And a few close-ups

I made this flower with some trim, some bubble gum mettalic mist from Maya Road and a brad from the Kraft Funday collection by MME

Misted with some Mister Huey in Calico White. Added some black bling, I like it!

Decided to use some trim for some added texture, some stamping, some washi tape :)

STASH USED

* The trim
* The washi tape
* The back bling

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO

* The collection of PP, it is sooo beautiful
* I love how I mixed up textures with the stamping, the trims and the washi
* I like that I didn't use a sketch
* I love the added black jewels, I feel like it adds the perfect touch!

Hello everyone,

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!

So, this time, I chose "Challenge #9: Take your pick". We had to choose an outdated challenge and play! Since I had never seen any, I chose one of the "UKScrappers" challenges (for March).

And here is my take on it:


And a few close-ups:

I used some beautiful Fiskars stamps I hadn't really used before.

I cut some flowers out of my "Plumeria" 6x6 pad from BG

Used some Liquid Pearls for the first time in my life!!! :) It's not perfect yet but I like the result

More pearls, more journaling and some handwriting :)

STASH USED

* I bought this paper collection some time ago
* My butterfly punch
* The "tag" punch
* The Fiskars stamps

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS LO

* All that stamping! I love those stamps but I had never really used them, what a shame!
* I liked making my own tags and shapes
* I like the general feel to it :)

Hello everyone,

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!

I bought a 6x6 BoBunny paper pad 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.

And here is the result:


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!


STASH USED

* Rhinestones
* The stamps
* The distress inks


WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CARD

* I came up with it without a sketch, was all in my little head
* I LOOOVE using 6x6 paper pads, don't know why

Hello everyone,

See, when I don't promise anything, I post twice in the same day!

Today, I am sharing a LO I made using one of Shimelle's sketches.



And here is what I came up with, using some old and new products I just got yesterday!! (massive haul... hum hum).


And a few close-ups

Used some Thickers from my stash and I tuck memorabilia from my birthday in the homemade pocket!

I even included the little blackboard we put on tables for the names :)

Something better than a lil' cluster? The small pocket is from the Smash books :)

Added some fiber at the bottom to add some blue. The square on the left is from MME

Nothing better than a rub-on final touch!
