It was before my Demo days with SU so I'm a little rebel as the papers and embellishments are all from Bo Bunny.<br />
<br />
All mothers out there will surely agree with me. When you have a brand new baby, you wish (and try!) to capture every smile, face, frown, squint, gurgle, giggle, noise, and so on... So here's my version of the new mom frenzy!<br />

My first attempt at clustering... It's not so bad but I still feel like there's something missing... When I get that feeling I prefer dropping everything because I tend to just add for adding, and end up with way too much unnecessary product.</div>

On veut préparer le plus HOT!, le plus WOW! des ateliers et on veut TOUT mettre dedans... Résultat? J'ai fait un atelier trop chargé pour le temps alloué. Belle erreur de débutante, mais c'était rien de grave et les participantes étaient, malgré tout, bien contentes de leurs projets.<br />
<br />
Voici les 4 modèles que nous avons créé:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
La première est la plus simple des 4, mais elle introduisait bien la Big Shot et l'embossage à chaud.</div>

Chaque modèle a été fabriqué en 3 couleurs chacune.</div>

Très mignonne mais trop de détails pour un atelier du genre "stamp and stack"...</div>

Sur demande, nous avons créé 2 modèles de noël, dont celui-ci "Case'd" (copié et partagé tout) de Pinterest:</div>

<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
Et ma petite dernière qui est, de loin, ma préférée!</div>
<div align="center">
J'ai aussi utilisé un modèle trouvé sur Pinterest, et je suis tombée en amour avec cette technique!</div>

Disons que vous allez sûrement la revoir quand je vais faire mes cartes de noël. J'ai ENFIN trouvé une technique que j'aime pour utiliser ma poudre thermique de SU :)</div>

<br />
C'est un premier atelier qui m'a appris plusieurs leçons qui me servent déjà quand je planifie mes ateliers ;) ...Soit moins de techniques ou de modèles... Plus de longueur de ficelle car des petites boucles ça gruge la patience et la zénitude des participantes ;) (lol!) et surtout! prévoir du matériel pour les petites gaffes irréparables (par chance, j'en avais déjà prévu!!).<br />
<br />
J'ai tout de même adoré ma première experience! J'ai même de beaux projets pour agrandir mes horizons :) lol!<br />
<br />
Si vous avez manqué cet atelier intense! mais aimeriez fabriquer certains de ces projets, contactez-moi! Il me fera grand plaisir de vous guider à travers les techniques tout en préservant votre zénitude! :)<br />

<br />
Hier, j'ai eu la chance d'animer (quoique mes invitées ont toujours le don de s'animer entre-elles! lol!) un atelier "chillax" de 3 cartes de styles plus masculins. Je dis "chillax" car les quelques derniers ateliers avaient été un peu plus intenses!<br />
<br />
2 cartes pour la fête des pères et une d'anniversaire générale:<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Cette première a été "CASE" (copy and share everything) de Stampin' Connection:</div>
<br />

J'aime son look "class"!</div>

<div align="center">
Celle-ci, m'a donné beaucoup de misère...</div>

<br />
<div align="center">
La prochaine fois je ne collerai pas le cercle jaune avec mon bâon de colle car on voit trop la demarcation des bandes de papiers en dessous. ET, je ferai plus attention à l'angle dans lequel je "poutche-poutcherai" mes gouttes d'encre pour éviter qu'il y en ait PARTOUT!! hihihi! Que voulez-vous, ce sont les joies de la creation! Lol!</div>

Je suis quand meme très fière du résultat final! Qu'en pensez-vous?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Yep! It's been one of those creator's blocks and I blame it on the cursed Flower! <br />
<br />
A few months back, I made this lovely flower with my Daydream Medallions and Floral framelits kit from SU and since then ... blah! ... That lovely, cursed flower just sat on my desk for months, sucking all creative life out of me!<br />
<br />
Last week, I decided it was ENOUGH! I turned that sucka' into a card, and though it wasn't an easy ordeal, I'm not too disappointed in the final result:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I would have loved to share the inside with you but unfortunately my camera refused to focus right... <br />
<br />
So if my calculations are right, now that the cursed flower has been mounted on a finished card, my creator's block should vanish. Therefore, I should be posting some more original lovelies real soon :) <br />
<br />
Thanx a million for encouraging my madness!<br />

Why not!!I first started scrapping when I met Stéphanie Binet who is a Stampin' Up demonstrator. You can view her blog <a href="http://ninicreationne.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">here</a>. She invited me to a Valentine's Day demo and just like certain drugs, it only took me once to be hooked! She was my SU demonstrator for nearly 2 years until she moved last fall :( ... so my little scrappin' gang and I were left stranded.... So, tell me, what other choice did I have than to become an Independent Demonstrator myself? .. obviously NONE!!! LOL!<br />
<br />
Jokes aside, I took the leap in January and have been a demo since then... I've only held one workshop since. It was a Stamp and Stack style workshop which introduced certain basics of cardmaking as well as basic tools...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is one of the 4 different cards that we made (each in 3 different color schemes). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(The Christmas owl as well as the picture frame are 2 projects that I got to make at Stéphanie's workshops...)</div>
<br />
I was so excited when I prepared my workshop I took more pictures of the preparation stage than of the final projects :) <br />

Next time I take the cards out for a project I promise I'll take more individual pictures ;)<br />

All in all, the workshop went really well and I was quite satisfied with the outcome! Hopefully I will have the chance to have a repeat :) especially so I can send more of my little Sheep Minions to my crafty clients!<br />

My new Passion!Earlier in March I was looking for an original birthday gift idea to make for my bestest pal who is just starting to paper craft. After spending way too much time on Pinterest (Who doesn't?) I came upon explosion boxes and fell right in love with the project! Who wouldn't like to receive a mini scrapbook album in a box? <br />

Did I ever tell you how much I LOVE my Big Shot machine? The possibilities are simply never-ending!<br />
<br />
The only detail you can't really see from the picture is that I added a little liquid pearl (white opal) to the embossed frame so the tiny dots look so ... pearly :)<br />

Thanx for vising and encouraging my madness!<br />

Stampin Up's Fox and Friends is the first stamp set I ever bought (so in some way, it's all its fault!!) but I never really used it all that much, so when I spotted this on pinterest a few weeks ago I just HAD to give it a go! <br />

Hihihi! simple and effective!!<br />

I've also been working on another birthday card, but this time for a lovely 6 year old girl named Charlie... I just love working with pink, for some reason it just comes more natural and easy to me. <br />

How I love Thee!!You know how they say, "Never say never!", well I should probably have listened. <br />
<br />
When I first started scrappin' I was in it for the scrapbook pages because "card-making wasn't my thing"... LOL! <br />
Then it was, "Bigshot machine, who needs a Bigshot machine?"... second-time LOL!<br />
And lately I was like, "Whoa! alcohol-based markers are way out of my league, I will NEVER get into those!" :)<br />
So what changed my mind? Simple laziness! I had just inked a few stamps and was basically too lazy to take out my prismacolors and blending tools... So, long story short, Youtube introduced me to Flexmarkers and Letraset just happend to have a 40% (now 50%) sale... Briefly, here I am waiting for my second order to arrive this week to feed my new addiction :)<br />
<br />
Here is my first Flexmarker image (Mo manning's Bunny with Gift):<br />

So I admit it, 2012 was a real blog Fail! I have no excuses, other than not using my camera much and not organizing the only few pictures I took until December :) So I'll try to make it up to my few followers by posting at least once a month this year. The important word is "try"! lol!<br />
<br />
So let's start with a few Christmas cards... This year I had a very hard time getting my mojo started so I "scrap-pinterest-lifted" most of my christmas cards, like this one for instance:<br />

My only personal touch was the nose :) <br />
<br />
There was also this one, which was originally created by Jen Nelson at <a href="http://thetinybluebutterfly.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">The Tiny Blue Butterfly</a> which is a great space to get inspired! The original was monochromatic, I only added a little color to it...<br />

If I don't mention the names of the original creators, it's simply because I can't find them, but the credit is all their's ... and be assured, these cards were for the sole purpose of making my family and friends happy :)<br />

Fortunately, at some point, I finally had a little fun of my own and created this baby:<br />

I used a great technique (which I also found on Pinterest) to add the glitter to my stamped snowflakes. It was quite easy, I covered the whole image in Versamark and then with heat emboss powder from SU... added the glitter, re-heated a little and Voilà! <br />
<br />
Since then, I've been scrappin' like crazy! But I won't show all today, I'm saving the rest for later :)<br />
<br />
Thanx again for encouraging my madness; it keeps me sane :)<br />

Getting to share my newly updated workspace of course!!<br />
<br />
After the sad death of our laptop, my Man and I purchased this absolutely extraordinary 22-inch screen computer (that's what happens when you work on a tiny 6-inch notebook for too long...lol) but when we brought it home, we were a little surprised to see how small my desk seemed to be underneath all that screen :) So off to Ikea we went! (I have to say that Ikea is a 2.5-hour drive from our house...)<br />

HIHIHI!!! After finding TOO many options, we finally chose to go with the 3-foot table which is where I put my printer and Big Shot. We also got a few knick-knacks like the little white, metal shelf that I put over my candy jars on the top shelf. As well as this great 3-drawer, basket-type storage unit which fits perfectly underneath the new table:<br />

The size is absolutely PERFECT to store all my paper, my magazines, and more! It's simply BRILLIANT!!! Thanks Babe! A little storage is a ll a girl needs to be overly hyper for at least a month :)<br />

I post.... sometimes.... I comment..... rarely..... I storytell..... never..... AND I don't even notice when I have new followers.... So totally UNWORTHY!! And yet, I have 2 new followers on my long list of 7... :P thanx to Prisca G. and Thecrazycrafter for joining me in my paper frenzy :) I make no promises but I will tell you one thing..... nah! still not much interesting to say! LOL! So take a peek at whatever pleases you and leave a happy face once in a while, that'll definitely make me feel even cheaper... hihihi!<br />

The pictures were printed on regular white printer paper which makes for a horrible quality but 10 and a half years ago, we thought it was pretty cool!! I would have them re-printed but unfortunately, they're the only existing copies... My baby girl was only a few hours old on those!!! <br />

Stamp: Pheobe by Ketto</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used paper-piecing for the dress, the flower and the hearts (which I also mounted on chipboard shapes). Also used a whole lot of stickles on her wings and a little on the borders. </div>

This week is a rough one, I'm starting to think that all the energy inside me is completely drained! If I don't set off to bed soon I'll probably end up like a Sims character and simply fall where I'm standing and snooze until my energy bar fills up again! :) Nonetheless, I love my job and I know I'll get through this week just like all the others :) <br />
<br />
So, WOYWW? Well, this week I finally finished my daughter's well-overdue birthday card, which I am rather proud of. You can visit my last post for the card details. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I've also been preparing my order for my first Stampin' Up club meeting at the end of the month. Just can't wait!!! There are soooooo many lovely stamps... but up to now I've got my mind set on the tiny tags kit with assorted punch... can't wait to spend a little dough! Hey! all this hard work has to have its good side! LOL!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This week I have a special order from my man's grandma in Belgium. She must have told him 5 times on Skype that she wanted a homemade card for her 88th birthday. I guess I'd better get to work... but what stamps to use?? Hmmm, isn't that a fun dilemma?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Hope you all have a great week! And don't forget to visit Julia at <a href="http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/2011/09/whats-on-your-work-desk-wednesday-118.html">The Stamping Ground</a> to know what this is all about!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I can't believe it's already been <strong><u>10</u></strong> years!! It's in occasions like these that you realize just how much you wish you could stop time. Andrea, my oldest, celebrated her birthday on August 2nd but with my going back to work, I only just finished her card today... I know, I'm an unworthy mom, but at least she gets another birthday surprise :) <br />

What a week! My 29 years and going BFF (when you have a 10 year old girl, you end up talking in the strangest ways...) spent 2 nights with her lovely hubby and 2 girls here in my used-to-be tidy house :) lol! So basically, after spending a whole week in crutches and doing NOTHING in the cleaning category, I spent a whole day washing every nook and cranny of my 3-floor house and then... POOF! just like magic, every spec of dust and dirt managed their way back into their original positions and are now staring at me with a wide smirk going «HA! HA!» Nonetheless, we had a wonderful time and I especially loved spending time with my pseudo-nieces (and my own 2 rascals) while their parents spent the day at a spa. So WOYWW today? a lot more kids' crafts than my own :)<br />

<br />

I used the back-side of a page which was completely mat and cut-out the butterflies from the other side (of a second copy of the same paper.... obviously... lol) I also added some shine by using my Versamark pen and embossing some faint swirls that were already in the background all around the page.<br />
<br />

<br />
The green strip says: Love is the best gift in my life.... but we can't make it out on the picture. I also added a little liquid pearls and stickles for detail, cause you can never have enough shine and sparkle :) <br />
<br />
Now off I go to make some August Birthday cards... Seems like all the kids I know were born in August :) LOL! Including my oldest for whom I purchased a digi stamp from Mo's which is truly representative of my soon-to-be 10 year-old. Can't wait to share :)<br />
<br />
More to come soon :)<br />
<br />
Thanx for visiting!<br />

I mean creative space ;) so here it is:<br />

</div> The crutch is to summarize my past week.... I accidentally tore a ligament in my foot last Wednesday. Ironically, this is how I ended up on WOYWW in the first place, since without my injury, I most definitely would not have been bloghopping on THE most beautiful days of the summer.... <br />

</div> The first few days of crutch-life, I spent making mini-albums with my mini helpers. My daughter and her friend were kind enough to spend the day with me to help with little Jake. (once again blogger simply loves to change the orientation of my pics...) These mini-albums are a great way to use paper scraps and to make 10 year-old girls really happy :)<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And now, I'm «working» on a page just to pass the time until I get well enough to drive to my favorite craft store Collimagination Touj' Ours. I bought this chipboard mini-album a while back and looking through my paper decided I deserved a little candy :) hihihi!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
