I didn't think it would this hard to make a layout a week. I usually make several and I have been creating a lot. Maybe it's the 8 * 11.5 size. Well this weekend I decided I would tackle it and here are weeks 4 and 5. Week 4 about my birthday and week 5 I scrapped I picture I took while driving to work. It really speaks to me. Two very different styles but I love them both.

Je pensais que faire une page par semaine sera facile mais ce n'ai pas le cas. J'essaie de ratrapper mon retard. Voici les semaines 4 et 5.

Mini book

In the latest edition of Esprit Scrapbooking I saw a cute little mini book and decided to make one. Really easy and a good way to use several photos.
Dans la dernière édition de Esprit Scrapbooking j'ai vu un modèle de mini qui m'a tout de suite plu. Voici le résultat.

 Inside the folded cardstock I slipped several photos.

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend.

Hip December layouts.

I really enjoyed making my December layouts. I had to think outside of the box as I wouldn't usually use these papers. I still love the result. The pictures don't do them justice. I just can't seem to get a good photo of them and I don't have the time to do them again. 

Here another one I made with leftovers from the kit.

And then this one for a game on the CS Avenue forum. A scraplift of this stunning layout by Béran'scrap.

I still have some more to show but that will be for a next post.

Petite traduction en français. Voici mes pages pour le kit de décembre de Hipbsquare et une page faite pour un des défi sur le forum CS Avenue. C'était un lift de Béran'scrap.

As happy as can be ...

 And what would a blogpost be without a layout or maybe even two. Here are two layouts I made. The first based on a sketch and the second using leftovers from my HIP kit. TFL and have a great Sunday. 

 

Listening to that little voice in my head.

As February starts so do a lot of projects. The first is ONE LITTLE WORD (Ali Edwards class at Big Picture). This month's task is to take pictures of things that surround us and that illicit our word. My word is listen and I must say it is difficult to find things that evoke this word. On Tuesday as I was driving to school a little voice in my head told me to stop and look at the view and I did. I took my camera (I don't know why but that morning I thought I'd take it) and snapped a few shots. I love them.And the connection with my word. Well I listened to the little voice in my head and I should learn to listen to it more closely.

Le mois de février commence et mon cours ONE LITTLE WORD continue. Ce mois nous devons prendre des photos des choses, lieux, etc qui nous font penser à notre mot. Pas facile pour le mot LISTEN (écouter). Sur la route de l'école j'ai décidé de m'arrêter pour observer la nature et par hasard j'avais mon appareil. J'ai écouter la petite voix à l'interieur qui me disent de prendre le temps de regarder. Je ne regrette pas.

 

Then some great news. I have made the second round for the DT call at the SCRAPBOOKNOOK. The kits are stunning and I feel so lucky to be in the finalist list. There are so many talented girls. I will know more on Saturday. And just to finish things off some sneak peeks at my layouts made with the HIP2BSQUARE kit.
