Welcome to another Monday and as it is the first day of a new week it means it is video time. Today I thought I talk about pastels and show you how you can use them. To showcase the theme I created a canvas. I used gelatos. I am not an artist but I can draw decently if I have an example and this canvas was inspired by a print I saw in an Etsy shop. I thought I could reproduce it instead of buying it! My canvas isn't as beautiful as the print but I am pleased with it and it will look lovely on one of the wall in our home. I had so much fun creating it!

Here is the print (isn't it gorgeous!!!! If you click on it you'll be redirected to the Etsy shop were I found it.):

CANVAS

Thank you for all your sweet comments. Love reading them!!!

Yesterday it was my turn on the American Crafts blog for Mix 'n Match week. Mixing AC collections is so easy especially with the 6*6 paper pads! I made this canvas using my cameo and several 6*6 pads! For a step by step tutorial head over to the AC blog here.

Hier j'avais un pas-à-pas pour créer un canvas sur le blog de American Crafts. Pour le détails, c'est ici.

Supplies: Sydney's Snapshot Paper (35688) - Sketchbook, 6x6 Paper Pad (35696) – Sketchbook, 6x6 Paper Pad (35658) – Neapolitan, 6x6 Paper Pad (35743) – Shoreline, Journal Black (53337) – Thickers, Scene Cascade (53341) – Thickers; Other: Font HaloHandletter, Silhouette Cameo, circle pattern

I also have another ColorConspiracy layout to show. I told you I love these papers and they make me try a different style. Love the grungy feel. And yet again I used cameo cut outs! 

Et puis encore une page ColorConspiracy. Comme je l'avais dit, j'adore!!!

 I also used washi tape and stamps from SwissGirlDesigns!

Then this: 2 more posts and it'll be my 400th post on this blog and I have a little surprise in store! 

 

Canvas and KNOCK OUTS!

I really loved making my first canvas and thought I'd make another. Less to my liking but still fun to make! 

J'ai vraiment aimer faire mon premier canvas donc j'en fait un autre. Il me plaît moins mais c'était amusant à faire! 

 Text: Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we're two balloons and together our direction is up, chances are we've found the right person!

SUPPLIES: canvas, gesso, twine from The Twinery, thread, Basic grey patterned paper, tape (Studio Calico).

In my latest American Crafts box I received some Knock Outs. They are interchangeable punches and I love them. I made a little video on how I use them and how to get the punched shape nicely lined up. 

J'ai reçu des perforatrices Knock Outs et je les adore! J'ai fait un petit video sur comment les utiliser! Désolée mais c'est en anglais. Si il y a beaucoup de demandes je ferai un vidéo en français!
