Another Bella Blvd Fall card

I don't know for you but here, in the South of France, we have a wonderful Fall, with temperature around 80 today. Beautiful colors and sun. Perfect season. To stay into these colors, I have a card to show you, made with the Bella Blvd Totally Fall collection :

Small pumpkins, leaves and clouds are hand cut and mounted on foam squares to pop a little bit.

I hope I can soon scrapbook in my new room. My attic is now remodeled, it just miss one coat of paint and furnitures... I did take pictures of the whole process, I will show them when everything will be in place. Can't wait ! Scrapbooking on the kitchen table is a nightmare for me. I'm use to leave my work-in-progress on my desk (in fact several works) and scrap at different time of the day. Now it's just at night, after the kids are in bed. Less efficient...
Hopefully, I will have some time next week to hunt in Ikea for my perfect combination of furniture...

What will you like inside if you'll have the opportunity to furbish a new scraproom ?

Feeling Sketchy layout sketch #104

Hello !

Another sketch from Feeling Sketchy and another layout for my Turkish album !
Take a look at this new sketch :

And my own interpretation of it :

Dolmabache is the last palace of the last Turkish sultan. It's a huge palace, with beautiful gardens, an harem, and a lot of crystal chandeliers (the one in the balroom is the biggest in Europe). I only have exterior pictures of it, cameras are forbidden inside. This is the main entrance.

I used K&Company papers, Shimmerz textured paint, modeling paste, Prima Marketing stencil, Tim Holtz distress ink, Faber Castell pen, I Am Roses flowers and leaves, and metal embellishments I bought near the Grand Bazaar. I printed the title and fussy cut it.

Molossi is our sponsor for this month and you could also win a RAK provided by Debi !

Breast cancer awareness Month plus a pink layout

Hello everybody !

We are now in October, some of you maybe aware more than the others of the pink wave, the breast cancer awareness month. For those who don't know, you can click here to have some information about this disease and how detect it in its early stage.

So today I will be all pink in my layout. I made it for my next beginner class, with only two sheet of white paper, stamps (Prima Marketing, Inkadinkado) and pink inks (Tattered Angels, Colorbox, Studio Calico).

The title "heureuse" means happy for a girl. And if you could read french, you will learn that this happiness cames from a moment. I think happiness is made of these kind of moments, like the sum of tiny amounts of joy, laugh, beauty, love.. you can find everyday.

So be happy a million times today, and the day after, and the day after... and don't forget to talk about breast cancer and ways to detect it with all the women (and girls) around you.
