Just five more minutes !

Hi everyone,

**Doing the walk/typing of shame here**

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!

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 Playmobils.)

Sooo, I used some Lawn Fawn stamps, Spellbinders dies and beautiful papers to put my dragon in the sky!


The light is not great, but we can see well the shadows created with the foam squares.

A few close-ups, just because I can :)

Love the little stamped heart. And the vellum clouds!

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CLOUD:
* I used some new products and some older ones
* I love the background paper, that pictures sort of a sun
* LOVE LOVE my Wink of Stella pen :)

Well, I'll keep it short (again... to increase my chances of posting more)

Thanks!

Johanna

Hello everyone,

Once again, it's been way too long... REALLY LONG!

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.

So, I made this CAS card and I LOOOOVE it!










I embossed, stamped, layered and embellished... And TADA!

There you have it, a quick project for my "come-back"... which, I hope, is going to be more regular!

I wish you all a great day and will make sure to read you soon :)

Bye for now,

Johanna

Hello everyone,

I hope your week started well and that you all get time to do what you like!

Today, I am sharing with you a card I created last night. For this one, I used a sketch from "Freshly made sketch". I would have entered it for "Less is more" but I missed the deadline, silly me (I got mixed up with CAS-ual Fridays).

So, here is the sketch:


And here is my card:


And here are a few close-ups:



WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PROJECT

* The non-traditional colours!
* The huge chipboard element

STASH USED

NONE.. WHAT??? Again?! Yes, I confess...

SUPPLIES

For a list of supplies, please see my 2Peas gallery

Hello ladies,

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 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 :)

As we say in French, "jamais 2 sans 3", meaning "never 2 without a third"... So, here is a third post for today!

I have a third card to share because I created yet another entry for the "Less is More" challenge! Inspiration for this week: red and orange colours.

So, here is my second take


Pretty clean and simple aye! An entire stamp set by Inkadinkado (Mid-century Alphabet), a template for the oval (no... I can't draw an oval), some Jenni Bowlin inks ("Chicken Feed" and "Cough Syrup") and some "Spiced Marmalade" distress ink for the borders, and finally, some We R Memory Keepers floss to highlight the sentiment...

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS CARD

* I used an entire stamp set!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (apart from the punctuation but who cares!)
* It's clean and simple... But I would have liked the "HI" to be at the bottom right... But we'll see for a future card.

STASH USED

* The stamp set
* The ink

I consider them stash because I don't use them enough!

SUPPLIES USED

Please see above and my 2Peas gallery!

TFL! :)

Hello again ladies,

I'm sharing a second card today. I created it for the week 40 challenge over at "Less is More". This week, the guideline was to use red and orange.

And here is what I came up with


And here are a few close-ups

"Mustard seed", "Spiced Marmalade" and "Fired Brick" distress inks

Used "Spiced Marmalade" distress ink for the title
