It was busy with work and mostly because I was planning a getaway weekend!!! It was a great weekend and here's what I got done:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The family loved it. It goes with the camping scrapbooking album that I'm doing... not sure that I will be doing many cards this week if I make any at all. I will be busy seeing my cute little niece and nephew! And I might if I have time continue this album since I'm now back in the mood for this ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So Cinzia this posting is especially for you to see what I did this weekend!</div>

I just loooove magnolia images so it's so much fun to play around with them. I left the sentiment out because I have lots of French friends and most of my sentiments are English :(<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the background I used the walkway from magnolia for the cute flowers ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the magnolia down under challenge, I have the buttons, glitter/bling (it's the little bling on the top of her dress) and polka dots. I also used a brand new technique that I had never used but definely will again PAPER piecing. I did the dress that way and I'm really really happy with the results.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I will be entering my little card in a few challenges ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Voici la dernière carte de la soirée. Je l'ai laissé sans texte afin que la personne qui l'utilisera puisse le faire comme il le désire. Étant donné que mes estampes de textes sont surtout en anglais ce n'est pas pratique pour ceux qui désirent obtenir mes cartes ;)</div>

She's a BIG rabbit fan. She has 2 at home. I must admit to loving them as well and I have one named Frosty. He's silver. I made this card with him in mind.<br />

Tonight I was desperately lacking inspiration... well I did have some inspiration but the project would have been too long for a weeknight... so I decided to tackle a challenge and try to get some inspiration from that. I've been working with sketches for the last few days... and it was hard tonight to come up with a concept but guess what... I think I managed to do a few challenges again with one simple little card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoAFuojx7Km2UvXiBIVuagQhqaSgigWk86cu_XmrlzjeAavFxGHrVm3iw2QIliuS_BS4YzP9z28Q9KpTMQWjUA2M_uPZnDcazLQBMQUxjdrnn61h96FJ-Bgon4-_H4m7VEResqo2R5gMlS/s1600/owl+always+love+you.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoAFuojx7Km2UvXiBIVuagQhqaSgigWk86cu_XmrlzjeAavFxGHrVm3iw2QIliuS_BS4YzP9z28Q9KpTMQWjUA2M_uPZnDcazLQBMQUxjdrnn61h96FJ-Bgon4-_H4m7VEResqo2R5gMlS/s320/owl+always+love+you.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To make this card I used:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>A book that I tore some pages from and used vintage photo distress ink on it</li>
<li>A Stampendous sentiment and I'm not sure where the owl came from because the sentiment usually goes with another image...</li>
</ul>
<div>
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://simonsaysstampandshow.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Simon says stamp and show</a> - show your handmade background</li>
<li><a href="http://thepinkelephantchallenge.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">The pink elephant challenge</a> - use kraft in your projects</li>
<li><a href="http://thestampingboutiquechallengeblog.blogspot.ca/2012/03/challenge-28-pearls-and-swirls-and.html" target="_blank">The stamping boutique challenge</a> - CAS clean and simple. This is always a hard one for me to keep to a bare minimum but I think this card was good for this</li>
<li><a href="http://www.going-buggy.blogspot.ca/2012/03/new-challenge-for-march.html" target="_blank">Going-buggy</a> - use something not intended for card making ( I tore out pages from an actual book and distressed them! )</li>
</ul>
<div>
So that's it for tonight. I'm pretty happy with my little creation. I think I have just the right person for this card ;)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Pour mes amis(es) francophones, je manquais de temps ce soir pour faire le projet que j'aurais vraiment désiré effectué. J'ai donc regardé les défis que j'avais pris en note et j'ai pensé à ce que je pourrais faire rapidement afin d'en combler certains. J'ai déjà je crois la personne à qui cette carte pourrait s'adresser. En passant le mot Owl veut dire hibou mais ce prononce comme "I" qui veut dire je... donc "je vais toujours t'aimer... petit jeu de mot anglais. Par contre le livre qui est déchiré lui est en français!</div>
</div>
<div>

<div>
Sur ce bonne nuit et à demain peut-être?!?</div>

I spent it inside at a great excel class but couldn't wait to be doing something crafty.<br />
<br />
So I made a little card tonight. I know that this card is a boy's card... but I was thinking of my bestee when I made it. This is why I chose this sentiment for the card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTdzIZFBbTISorLYOnC12soau3Il4wLHivq02cbWHy7vjcxnx6UsXcLcJCHj__WdlcclE4DbYB5AKCp8I6XrwX_SkoOmlZVXqfXzp7BNpyRlzQQyYVisON3h44JDJil1ww4RT4eV2YLDbu/s1600/Best+buds.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTdzIZFBbTISorLYOnC12soau3Il4wLHivq02cbWHy7vjcxnx6UsXcLcJCHj__WdlcclE4DbYB5AKCp8I6XrwX_SkoOmlZVXqfXzp7BNpyRlzQQyYVisON3h44JDJil1ww4RT4eV2YLDbu/s320/Best+buds.png" width="242" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used the same fantastic sketch as yesterday:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<img alt="image_thumb" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-MSDNqtobZAY/T2PrSVp4BVI/AAAAAAAAKb0/Dk3AiCSpn_E/image_thumb_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" /><br />
<br />
But I turned it around and did the same thing to the sentiment ;)<br />
<br />
To make this card I used the following:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Measure by measure embossing folder from Cuttlebug</li>
<li>my square cm punch</li>
<li>Some craps of papers (if you search my previous blog entries I'm sure you will find this paper elsewhere ;) )</li>
<li>And the digi stamp from Bugaboo Best buds. It's one of the great stamps that I won for the humor challenge. I just love it. I didn't have a lot of images that fitted for boys. Now I do.</li>
</ul>
<div>
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.catchthebugblog.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Catchthebugblog</a> - my 3rd entry ;) I love their sketch! So yes it was the sketch</li>

I went to check who won the Stamp and create candy and guess what it was me ;))) After a long day of training on excel it was fun to be back in my craft-room. I organized my new copics pens (a great crafter I know was not using them anymore and offered to sell them to me YAY!) So happy and most of the colors she had were not the one I had... so it was a great continuation to my new collection.<br />
<br />
Then I crafted a great little card with the great <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/Freebies_c_70.html" target="_blank">Bugaboo stamps</a> freebie. If you don't know this site you HAVE to check it out. It's amazing and their freebies are as well!!!! So here's my card:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To make my card I used:</div>
<ul>
<li>prismacolor coloring pencils</li>
<li>Stickles for the icing</li>
<li>A cuttlebug embossing folder to make the flowers</li>
<li>scraps of papers from different other projects ;) love it when I can reuse</li>

I chose this image and colored the little poodle black because I have a little black poodle called Chanel. Fitting right when we think that the mimi set is the one in Paris? Chanel and Paris ;)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

TGIF!!! I'll be able to create this weekend ;) been missing it and last night with the Teacher's conference I was not able to so fun time ahead. I discovered a new technique going through some beautiful blogs during lunch time today. So the new technique is "faux embossing". I couldn't wait to try it out so this is what I did tonight. And here's the result:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's far from perfect but it's the 1st try ;) I used a butterfly punch from Martha Stewart to make the faux embossing and used real heat embossing for the sentiment. I also realized that I had bought this sentiment over 15years ago... that doesn't make me any younger!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had lots of fun just realizing this simple card. Looking forward to tomorrow!!!!</div>

I couldn't resist using one!!! I just looooved coloring him so much fun. I used the template from <a href="http://stamptacularsundaychallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stamptacular sunday challenge</a> it was perfect for my male card ;) I don't do a lot of those I tend to do more girly stuff so this was a nice change. I realized as well that I don't have a lot of paper to do this with lol<br />
Here's the template:<br />

Spring break is over so back to work I went... and since last night I had my book club I was not able to craft. I've missed it!!! It was like withdrawal lol I was dreaming of making cards.... unfortunately when you wake up they are not there...So tonight I had fun. I created a card 1/2... the other card will be done tomorrow. I prepared everything but need to stamp and color. Tonight's card took longer to make than I had expected. I messed up my 1st attempt... oh well. I think it turned out pretty good. I figured that it was a different take to mother's day card since it mentions that home is where the story begins... isn't that what mom's are all about? Creating a nice home. Hope you like it as well.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To make this card I used the Stamp from Darcie's JCS143 (the sentiment is from the same stamp group), I also use a Martha Steward border punch, an embossing folder and one of my CM circle shape for the 2 inside circles. The little pearls are Robin's nest Dew Drop.</div>
