I have finally found the courage to start scrapping my February Scrapbook nook kit. I wouldn't usually buy patterned papers like that but they are gorgeous. 

J'ai enfin osé scrapé le kit de février du scrapbooknook. Une petite page avec moi et puis une en honneur de ma soeur et sa petite. 

A layout featuring me (I have challenged myself to scrap more pics of me as my kids don't stop telling me there are so little layouts of me) :

And then one with my dear sister and her daughter who was born 10 days ago. I really love the photographs I took of her. So sis if you happen to stop by, I am so proud of you. Your daughter is gorgeous.
Layout is based on a pencillines sketch.

 Thanks for looking.

Colorful designs

I wanted to try something new and so I decided to follow one of Céline Navarro's classes. Our first class was last week. We had to use primary colours and follow a sketch. I did find it difficult to scrap 2 10*15cm (4*6) photos as I love small pics and lots of negative space. Here's my layout :
A la recherche de quelque chose d'autre, je me suis inscrite au cours de Céline Navarro. Voici ma première réa. Pas facile à faire car je scrappe rarement 2 photos 10*15.

Then a layout I made inspired by this (another challenge for the Colorful designs class):
Puis j'ai été inspiré par ceci (aussi proposé par Céline).

Thanks for looking.

January Hip kit

I really loved using the January kit. These kits are so versatile. Here we go.

 I made this mini for my Big Picture Class with Karen Grunberg " Embrace imperfection" . Loved that class.

Auntie for the third time.

Hurray for my little sister. On Tuesday she gave birth to little Elisa. Can't wait to get some pictures of her. I decided to make a little something for her. My first diaper cake. Love the way it turned out.

Mardi, ma petite soeur a donné naissance à la petite Elisa. J'ai hâte de la voir. J'ai fait un petit cadeau pour maman et la petite puce.

And then this to make me pretty. Yesterday my dear friend Aline held a jewellery evening at her place and I made a necklace and a bracelet. She has the most stunning ideas when it comes to jewellery. You're a really talented girl Aline. Thanks a million.

Et puis, hier, j'ai été à un atelier bijoux chez mon amie Aline. Elle fait des merveilles et voici le résultat de quelques heures de travail. Merci Aline pour cette soirée superbe.

Have a lovely weekend.

Ho ho ho ???

I have been waiting to post this layout for some time as it was meant to be a layout for a guest designer spot but I haven't heard from them so I am showing it. The theme is a little out of date but it is a lovely memory.
Une petite page (pas de saison) avec des papiers z'etiquettes.

Then a peak at the February kit and add ons at Hip2Bsquare. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
