One of my favourites

I think it must be one of my favourite lines ever. The RANDOM collection from Crate Paper. I still have some papers left. I will be giving a scrapbooking class this Thursday at my children's school. It is a project where parents can come and teach about something they love. I'll have 9 kids between 6 and 12). I created this layout as example. They all been using different papers as I want them to choose the colours and patterns themselves. I will try to teach them how to colour coordinate. It will also help me use all the stash that I can't let go of as I love it so much. I have kept it simple. There is just a bit of layering envolved. I have 2 sessions with them so it should go well. (Fingers crossed). 
Une petite page avec une de mes collections préférées: RANDOM de Crate Paper. Cette page a été conçu pour un atelier que je vais donner à un groupe d'enfants de l'école primaire de mes enfants.


See you tomorrow with another layout ;)

Last year ....

I wrote my very first article for a scrapbooking magazine. It was a special edition of the Esprit Scrapbooking magazine and I created a "folder" minibook. Today I can finally show it to you. It holds photos of me when I was younger with some of the places I lived in. I think it is my favourite mini up to date. I used the StoryTeller collection from Crate Paper. I LOVED that line so much!
Voici un mini que j'ai créé pour mon le premier article que j'ai écrit pour Esprit scrapbooking. Il est sorti dans l'édition spécial de l'an dernier.


Inside the folder are little tags that came be pulled out with more photos and stories. 


 

These photos are memories and make me sad each and every time. I still included them so that I and my children will never forget!

May kits at SCRAPTASTIC

They came this week. YAY!!!! I filmed the contents immediately as I wanted to use them as soon as possible. I love them and was so inspired that I created two layouts with the AFTER THE STORM kit and its add-on. I am working on a layout with the Destination Unknown kit as we speak!!! 
I love the greens, yellows and blues in the kit but saw potential for another colour combo: grey&yellow. The grey has a purple tint to it which I like a lot! The first layout really uses the dominant colour scheme of the kit whereas the second is more subtle and muted. 










Here is a video showing the two kits with their add-ons. !

 

And just a few sneaks of next month's kit. (Already SUPER excited to get it ESPECIALLY the PL kit!)
